    We had a great experience. Food is wonderful, restaurant is very attractive and has a great small bar, but the best part of this place is the service. The wait staff is amazing and never disappoints.

    First time visit and we were very impressed. Anthony, our server, was excellent and paced out our dinner courses perfectly, and he was very attentive. The steaks were top-notch and rival our favorite steak houses around the U.S. We had a very comfortable booth, the restaurant was busy, but no issue with ambient noise. We will certainly be back.

    Fantastic experience! Wife and I celebrated our birthdays. Food quality and service was outstanding. “Special appetizer” was amazing! (Thank you, Chef!) Our server – Anthony – was excellent. His recommendations for entrées and wine were on point. A true professional. The she crab bisque and gumbo were both excellent. (Lived in New Orleans for 2 yrs and visit the Low Country often, so I’ve had a few…). Steaks were cooked to perfection. Place was a bit noisy, but we dined on a Friday during peak dinner hours, so to be expected. Noise must speak to its popularity. Was our 2nd fabulous dining experience here. They even accommodated our table request which made for a very pleasant evening. It is now on our “must dine” list when we are in the area. If you’re looking to dine for a special occasion – or any occasion – I highly recommend The Bluffton Room. Ask to sit in Anthony’s section – you will not be disappointed.

    The Bluffton Room has excellent food, superb service, and great ambience. It is most probably the best restaurant in the Bluffton/Hilton head area. The only problem is the difficulty of securing a reservation given its popularity and small size. Wonderful place!

    My only complaint about the Bluffton Room is that its hard to get a table! Worth the effort though as it is consistently the best food in general and steak in particular in the area....great spot!

    Felt that the food was sub-par, especially for price. Service and ambience were exceptional.
