The food here gets better and better. I have tried almost everything on the menu. It has been simplified and is now fantastic. I recommend the seared scallops. Yum. Nice wine list too.

This was the first time in our lives my wife and I have had to send a meal back. She ordered the salmon, which was served over spinach and shitake mushrooms. The sauce was beyond salty. It tasted like pure soy sauce. She told the waiter who took it back without any apology and then he came back with the dish. It was the same piece of salmon and rests looked like it has been rinsed out and then heated up. My snapper/​low country boil was salty too and small in portion. Totally not worth the money at all. I would say the best thing was the bread.

We have been coming to Palmetto Bluff for about 10 years. The food was formerly acceptable but now is the worst it’s ever been. Ordered the Bronzino or European Sea Bass which was mushy. My wife ordered some Indonesian dish which she couldn’t finish because it tasted so bad. The portions are small and the bill now about 30% higher than it used to be. We also tried Buffalo’s 2 nights in a row. Food unhealthy… fried flounder and potato chips one night and oily cheese and chicken casserole the next night. We tried the margarita pizza another night and it looked nothing like a margarita pizza it had tons of extra cheese and not enough tomato sauce
I called and left a message for the food and beverage manager of the resort to discuss with him. He never called me back. We would never even come here, since there are much better restaurants in Bluffton however they are 20 minutes away.

Had a wonderful time with family at gorgeous Palmetto Bluff and Dined at this most perfect restaurant with excellent service.
It was a nice experience and the evening was wonderful.
Our waiter was so fantastic that I’m reluctant to give less stars the meal deserves. We’ve had professional top chef dishes and at these prices I expect the best, but our dishes were not.

Not only is the scenery overlooking the May River stunning, the inside of the restaurant, modeled after an inverted, wooden canoe, is lovely. The menu is limited, but changes weekly. The food generally is good, but much more expensive than warranted by what you get, which maybe should be no surprise at Palmetto Bluff.
