   Nothing special-Our server was fine. I just wish he had told us that the blacked seasoning was VERY salty. I couldn’t eat my shrimp. The beets were diced small and in a sauce. It seemed like they were out of a can. The portions were small -lettuce isn’t expensive. Disappointing meal.

   My husband had the Tuna Ahi Poke bowl and there was a hair in his tuna. They did take this off of our check. For his entre he had the pan seared scallops over gouda grits w/asparagus. The grits were a very thick paste not soft & creamy. The asparagus was thick & tough. Only one of the scallops was seared properly, the other three were barely seared. My crab cake was good but small for the price. My entre was red fish over mashed potatoes. My food was good. But not a $37.00 plate. I had looked at the on line menu to find out my choices were from their Winter menu. They need to update to their Summer Menu. The service was good.

   Our experience was great from start to finish. The service was excellent, the food was amazing and the ambiance was beautiful. Perfect place to go for steaks and seafood. The drink menu/wine list is remarkable as well. Highly suggest The Pearl!

    I felt we were a little rushed. The food was good - portions were rather small. It was expensive. I'm short and my chair was very uncomfortable but would have been OK for most people. Sounds like I'm complaining. . . but for the two of us, when we spend $160 for 2 glasses of wine and 2 beers, no desert - I like it to be really special.

    The Pearl was absolutely delicious! Chloe our server was excellent. She made recommendations and answered all of our questions about the entrees. Our party of four had the redfish, the scallops, the filet and the ny strip. The she crab soup was a favorite! We’ll definitely be back!!!

    Great food and service!!!! We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary at The Pearl and found an out of the way gem (from our hotel in Hilton Head) to be well worth the drive. Both of us had the pistachio crusted Ahi Tuna, and it was wonderful. We had outstanding service from our waitress Cindy. We will be telling our family and friends that visit Hilton Head about The Pearl.

    Unfortunately, our dinner was quite disappointing. We’ve been going to The Pearl for years, and it’s always been great. Last night was, I’m assuming (and hoping), a rare exception. We had indoor reservations for 8pm but went early with hopes of finding a spot at their way too small bar (that’s another issue). There was of course was no space. The hostess said all the outdoor tables were reserved and we’d have to wait to be called when our table was ready. I stepped outside, opened the Open Table app and changed the reservation to outside at 7:30…hmm guess there was space. She then seated us. Our server Sherri was lovely (the only bonus that evening). We ordered the ahi tuna nachos. Only there may have been only ten 1/4”, very small pieces of tuna. Certainly not worth the price we paid…it was pathetic. Then we each got the bouillabaisse which is usually fantastic. Last night the seafood was over cooked and difficult to remove from the shells. We were both wondering what was going on as we come to The Pearl always expecting to enjoy it. Again I’m hoping this was a rare exception and not indicative of a restaurant in trouble.

    Cute location-food was excellent-it’s pricey, but what you’d expect for a night out! Service was good-like many places around the country though-they are short on help. So get yourself a drink and enjoy a relaxing evening with family or friends. The live music was great-but can’t hear it outside-a speaker might be a great addition so outside guests can hear it too-

    It was a birthday dinner. He ordered the pork chop, I ordered the duck. He sent the chop back because it was way underdone. The duck was very flavorful, but the skin hadn't been crisped,and so was chewy and fatty. Not a good mouth feel. The rest of the meal was great. The writer was attentive, the wine was chilled and crisp.

    If you are looking for fresh seafood in an upscale restaurant this is it. The grouper was outstanding and the wine list is reasonably priced. As always the service by Eric was very professional.

    Great food but service needs some help. We sat outside on a Sunday night; there were not many patrons at the restaurant when we arrived. We received our menus and waters quickly upon being seated; however, the waiter didn't return to take our drink and food order for 20 minutes. Once we flagged down another waiter, our waiter came by, took our orders and within 10 minutes we received our drinks and salads. Attendants were quite responsive thereafter. The food was good and we have heard great things for years about the Pearl. Do hope they fix their service issue.

    My first time to The Pearl and the visit was exceptional. I had reserved a table but asked if we could sit at the bar. No problem. Bar tenders were great, knew their stuff and quickly looked after us. The menu run through was great and the daily special sounded amazing. We ordered the filet mignon and a pork chop which were both cooked perfectly and accompanied by great sides. Oh and the grilled Caesar salad was also great. Shared a carrot cake for dessert as there was no room left. Others at the bar had visited previously and spoke highly of The Pearl. I now can do the same. A well run establishment, with great food and wonderful staff.
