- OTOpenTable DinerSouth Carolina •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoEverything you would want for a beautiful dining experience… is here. The food was elevated by Clyde - who was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and assisted us throughout the evening. The restaurant was equally matched by the patrons, who were respectful of the dress code and cast a moderate noise level that made it easy to talk at our table. It’s an overall lovely dining establishment that makes you happy to dress up and take in the gorgeous holiday season!More infoRiver House - Montage Palmetto BluffPrice: Very Expensive• American• Bluffton•4.8

- OTOpenTable DinerDetroit / Eastern Michigan •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoAn outstanding dining experience. Started with seared foie gras and 5-onion soup (delicious! wish I could make it that good), then the ceasar salad brulee (has a little kick to it!), and then Ribeye and Filet Mignon -- both excellent. The only thing I might not get again is the Manhattan -- a little too smoky for my taste.More infoThe Bluffton RoomPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Bluffton•4.9

Discover Bluffton
Historians believe that Native Americans and Spanish explorers threw the first barbecue very near Bluffton. The natives had the cooking know-how while the Spanish brought their pigs with them. Since then, the town's cuisine pedigree has only grown. Bluffton seafood platters groan under the weight of low country shrimp, crab, lobster, and catfish. Seafood restaurants are a large contender in the town's fine dining category, and they offer both local delicacies and more exotic catch flown in from the Pacific. The town has a nice mix of upscale and family-friendly for all three meals of the day. In addition to seafood and traditional Southern cuisine, you can find anything from Asian and Cajun to nationally known sandwich shops. Wash it all down with a mint julep or sweet tea, which was invented in South Carolina.
