   We had made a reservation, when we arrived at the restaurant it was closed! We had no contact from them. Terrible way to do business.

   Showed up for my reservation and its was closed. Called earlier in the day to add additional people to the reservation and was told it wasn't a problem. Never informed they weren't going to open that night.

   Fried wings were raw in the middle. There was just one server when we arrived and she was bar tending in addition to serving and hosting! She was literally having to run. It was a Friday evening and the drink/food menu was severely curtailed. The entire island seems to be a good food desert.

   Manager is amazing, deserves double raise! Staff kind of lack luster and checked out. Terrific location and amazing music playing.

   Let me begin by saying the location of the restaurant on the island is perfect! The restaurant is decorated nicely and the music reminds you of the main location.in Atlanta. There was six people in our party. It was very chaotic upon entry. . It as if the restaurant was closing although we made a reservation. I approached a server who was no responsive. I then approached another woman who said she was the newly hired manager. She asked us to wait in an area until they sorted out some kinks. We we’re finally sat at an outdoor table about ten minutes later. I wanted the macaroni and cheese and waffles. Both of which were sold out. I settled on a salad. It was good. As a night cap, I wanted to taste the Peach cobbler. I was told it had been lit up and cooks did not want to unpack. Ok! The rest of the parties food was mediocre nothing to truly brag about. The ere were a number of missteps that occurred which I Sweet Georgia’s work out if the goals is to be a main stay on the island.

   When we stated that we had a reservation through Open Table, the manager stated that they were moving away from this service but would take us anyway. The food was okay. They were understaffed and the manager had to wait on us. The menu clearly stated that gratuities would be added on large parties, but one was added to our party of three. We will not be returning any time soon.

   Food and service were good. Noise level was disruptive to having an enjoyable time. Will not be going back.

    Absolutely the worst experience ever. Walked in for reservation and they said they were closed at 07:45pm on New Year’s Eve!!! They should not even be an option on open table to reserve. Spoke to manager who told me he was part owner and was also extremely rude.

    Got there there around 6:55 pm and the waitress/hostess told us that they were closed. When I said that I had reservations for 7:00 she challenged me to show it as if I was making it up because “ We are not taking reservations” when I showed it to her she said fine you can take a seat but “We will get to you when we get to you” because “ there is only two of us” Obviously we decided to leave. It was Saturday at 7pm on a busy Jekyll Island Christmas fireworks night and all other Restaurants in town were super busy.

    Showed up for our 6:30 reservation and were told they closed at six. They checked and they did have our reservation on file that had just not bothered to call and tell us they would not be open. We ended up down the street at Beach Club. It was amazing!!

    Really delicious shrimp, salads, drinks, desserts, and service. Large portions too. Our wait staff, Mary, was a gem. Right next door to the Westin, over looking the beach and ocean.

    We made a reservation on open table and fii ok und the place closed. Their rating would be higher if the business was open and we could of tasted the food or experienced anything accept darkness. By this time, we were unable to get in anywhere else since we planned on being here.

    They didn’t honor our reservation at all. When we walked in it was a first come first serve sit wherever you like. There wasn’t even a hostess. We had reserved an outside table but they were all full. We had to wait for someone to clean off a table inside. Also, about 8 tables were closed because water was dripping from the ceiling. We didn’t realize when we made reservations that this place has a strange business model. You scan a QR code on your phone and order virtually. I put in our drink and appetizer orders. After nearly 20 minutes my boyfriend went to the bar to check and make sure our order went though. The bartender was terribly rude and basically told him “We are busy, we will get to it when we get to it.” At that point, if I hadn’t already entered my credit card information we would have walked out. Finally our beers and food came out. All utensils were plastic. The food was good, but nothing special. We left after we finished the appetizers and beers. I had really had high hopes for this location when I saw that a restaurant had opened in this space after the previous one closed. We won’t be back.

    Open table and this restaurant accepted our reservation for two. When we got there the restaurant was closed and has been for sometime and is closed indefinitely according to the sign on the door. Why that wasn’t reported so the reservations could be turned off is ridiculous. After reading all the good reviews we were looking forward to a great experience… oh well. Because all the other restaurants and beach village were booked up through 9 PM, we just got sandwiches at the grocery store. Disappointing experience from this restaurant.
