Find the perfect atmosphere and menu L

ongtime readers of the Bluffton & Lowcountry Restaurants guide will notice several improvements in this spring issue.

Some of the changes include a new name (Fork & Fun), a more user-friendly design and a new website (www.forkandfun.com).

Bluffton and the surrounding area is home to hundreds of restaurants, ranging from high-end hideaways to delightful diners and dives.

If you want it, we’ve got it.

Chefs from all corners of the world have brought the best American, French, German, Indian, Italian, Mediterranean, Greek, Asian, Mexican and Southwestern cuisine right here to our paradise. You can also enjoy regional fare such as local seafood and farm-to-table restaurants.

Have you ever heard of Lowcountry cuisine? That’s our specialty.

Favorites such as She-Crab Soup, Brunswick Stew, Shrimp and Grits, Lowcountry Boil and Frogmore Stew were born here.

The beauty of the local dining scene is that there are options for every pocketbook.

You can spend $5 on the best pulled-pork sandwich you’ve ever eaten or you can drop $32 on champagne poached scallops sure to please even the most finicky critic.

The trick is finding all these great restaurants.

As you may have noticed, Bluffton and Hilton Head doesn’t look like your average tourist destination.

Many regulations protect the area’s natural beauty. As a result, the lack of signs can make the region difficult to navigate, especially when it’s dark outside around dinner time.

That’s where this guide comes in.

Inside you will find locations, descriptions and several menus from the best restaurants Bluffton and the surrounding area has to offer.

The first thing you will notice is the Table of Contents.

Restaurants are listed alphabetically with their phone number and the type of cuisine they specialize in. You will also find the page location for each restaurant’s advertisement or menu, restaurant description and the map location number. The Table of Contents can also be used as a quick reference guide to see who is open for breakfast, lunch or dinner along with several specialty categories such as outdoor dining, children’s menu, take-out, late night, vegetarian, pet-friendly and gluten-free options.

Inside you will also find information on local entertainment, happy hour specials, early bird specials and a few other surprises.

We appreciate comments and suggestions that will help make our next issue even better. Please e-mail your feedback to anuska@triopublications.com.

Also, be sure to follow us on Twitter (HHIDiningMag) and like us on Facebook (hhirestaurants).

We hope you enjoy this spring issue of Fork & Fun.

NEW RESTAURANTS IN BLUFFTON AND HILTON HEAD

Thanks to the droves of visitors that come during vacation season, Bluffton and nearby Hilton Head Island have more than 300 restaurants to choose from. Here is the skinny on recently opened establishments.

Big Jim’s BBQ, Burgers & Pizza

Big Jim’s BBQ, Burgers & Pizza, the newest restaurant at Palmetto Dunes Resort is named in honor of Big Jim Self. Big Jim’s offers up signature Southern dishes including slow-cooked barbecue and brisket, a variety of gourmet burgers and grilled pizzas plus homemade soups, salads, seafood, steaks and fall-off-the-bone ribs.

Self, one of the founding fathers of Palmetto Dunes, was a big thinker with big dreams. He also had some big-time culinary skills. From his own special barbecue sauce to his renowned Tennessee coleslaw, Big Jim’s recipes were always in demand among family and friends and now the same traditional recipes are offered at Big Jim’s restaurant.

With great food, great drinks, great fun and great stories, you can expect nothing less at the restaurant named in his honor.

Big Jim’s is located at 7 Trent Jones Lane, inside the Robert Trent Jones Clubhouse. Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Classic breakfast menu served 7-10 a.m. Happy hour is 4-7 p.m. daily. Live entertainment is offered seasonally with daily specials that include Martini Mondays and Prime Rib Wednesdays from 5-9 p.m. Big screen TVs and outdoor seating overlooking the Jones golf course make Big Jim’s the perfect spot to watch sports. Take-out and catering are also available. Call 843-785-1165 or visit www. palmettodunes.com/big-jims for more information.

Bullies BBQ

The best barbecue restaurant in Medina, Ohio, has opened a second location on Hilton Head Island.

Bullies BBQ owners Tammy and Bob Sutton are confident their award-winning smoked ribs, pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket will eventually be just as famous here as they are back in the Snowbelt.

“We’ve only got five items on the menu and they’re all great,” said Bob Sutton, who cooks all the food himself.

“We’re giving a different-sized portion than what people are used to down here; a healthy portion for a reasonable price.”

A pulled pork or a pulled chicken sandwich will set you back

24

$5.50. The brisket sandwich costs an extra quarter. Bullies also offers jumbo sandwiches and dinner plates with french fries, cole slaw and jalapeño cheddar cornbread. Other sides include mac and cheese, Carolina cole slaw and kickin collards.

Items are slow-smoked over hickory and mesquite woods on the Suttons’ jumbo-sized smoker and can be topped off with one of four original sauces. Sutton also sells his Memphis-style rub, which took more than 20 years to perfect. The rub and all the sauces can be purchased separately for $5.99.

Counter service ensures a much quicker dining experience than the other sit-down barbecue restaurants on the island.

You can find Bullies BBQ at 3 Regency Parkway on Hilton Head Island, next to the Red Roof Inn. Hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 9 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, call 843-686-7427 or go online to www.bulliesbbq.com.

Fiddlehead Pizza

Think global, eat local. Fiddlehead Pizza is the only pizza restaurant in Beaufort County that is “Certified South Carolina – Fresh on the Menu,” meaning it uses at least 25 percent of local products or ingredients. Owners Stacey and Darren Macioszek say they are close to 45 percent. The décor of the restaurant is from here as well, painted and designed by local artists.

About the only thing that isn’t true to South Carolina is the unique crust, which originated in Naples, Italy. With a blend of two different yeasts and microflora, it has a bubbly look, a slightly tangy flavor and can be covered with red or white sauces.

With six cold taps, Fiddlehead Pizza offers an ever-changing selection of draught beer, many from South Carolina breweries. The restaurant has also quickly developed into a hotspot for live music, starting at 8 p.m. each Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

The party continues until the last customer leaves. Kitchen hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday.

The restaurant’s name was inspired by the edible sprout that comes from the fiddlehead fern. It opened in March and has already developed a strong following of repeat customers.

“The reaction has been hugely positive,” Darren Macioszek said. “I get it from both customers and purveyors.

Everybody that talks about our place is raving about it. I think our product definitely speaks for itself.”

Popular local bartenders Tanya Aquino, Brandon Capria and Benjamin Powers have opened a new hotspot in Bluffton called the R Bar & Grill. The three have renovated the former One Hot Mama’s building, located at 70 Pennington Drive, and are ready to let the good times roll.

“It’s a great building and it’s in a great location,” Aquino said. “It was awesome when it was Mama’s. Everybody

www.forkandfun.com

has a lot of great memories here and we just wanted to try and rekindle that. It’s going to be like the Cheers of Bluffton.”

Aquino describes the menu as “upscale bar food with a twist” with homemade stromboli, Philly cheese steak egg rolls, sandwiches, entrees and more. A late-night menu is available after 10 p.m. The R Bar also offers outdoor dining with a large patio and stage, which will host live entertainment in the near future.

Hours are 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. seven days a week. For more information, call 843-757-7264.

NEO

Executive Chef Russell Keane, a graduate of the prestigious Johnson & Wales University and longtime contributor to the Hilton Head Island culinary scene, has opened NEO – the Lowcountry’s first “farm to table” gastropub.

Known for his adventurous neo-classic cooking style, entertaining spirit and passion for fresh, premium ingredients, Chef Russell features locally sourced items (90 percent of the menu is sourced from within 90 miles), such as fresh local seafood and organic farm-raised beef, as well as artisan pizzas, wines, craft beers, handcrafted cocktails and more in his new restaurant.

Conveniently situated in the remodeled location formerly home to Upper Crust Pizza, in the Moss Creek Village, NEO offers a casually chic atmosphere where rustic warmth meets prohibition era cool.

NEO’s lunch menu emphasizes grassfed burgers, house smoked barbecue, sandwiches, wraps, an array of garden fresh salads and artisan pizza by the slice. You’ll love the homemade pimento cheese.

NEO’s dinner menu features several popular tapas, for which Chef Russell is known, as well as Southern comfort entrées with neo classic twists: e.g., farm fresh deviled eggs with wickled red onion marmalade, free range chicken pot pie, tender braised short ribs, grassfed beef steaks, naturally raised pork bacon steak and baby back ribs, and decadent maple & bacon cheesecake. NEO also offers vegetarian selections, a children’s menu and gluten-free items.

NEO’s hours of operation are 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday – Saturday for restaurant dining, with the lounge remaining open until later. Happy bird is 4-6 p.m. daily.

Guests enjoy 25 percent off NEO’s entire food and drink menu. Tasty Tuesday events from 6-8 p.m. include complimentary tastings (e.g., scotch, wine, etc.) that change weekly. Reservations accepted via phone. For more information, call 843-837-5111.

Ombra Cucina Rustica

A new upscale Italian restaurant has opened in the Village at Wexford. Longtime local Italian chef Michael Cirafesi has branched out with distinguished Philadelphia chef Nunzio Patruno to open Ombra Cucina Rustica.

“All executive chefs want to eventually open their own restaurant,” Cirafesi said. “We all have that dream. We follow the rules of classic Italian cuisine. We will be set apart by our standards and who we are.”

Cirafesi started cooking in 1987 under Patruno, who was considered one of the top Italian chefs in the country. The two have completely remodeled the building where Antonio’s was located, creating an environment similar to a rustic Tuscan farmhouse.

The word ombra is Venetian for a small glass of wine.

Cucina rustica means rustic cuisine. As the name implies, Ombra Cucina Rustica offers an extensive Italian wine list and serves cuisine from the Old World using innovative cooking techniques.

Chef Cirafesi makes all his own desserts, pastries and pastas. All fish come from either the Mediterranean or the Adriatic.

The restaurant also features a Venetian style bar and lounge.

Ombra Cucina Rustica opens at 5 p.m. each day and closes after the last patron leaves. Reservations are recommended but walk-ins are welcome. For more information, call 843-842-5505.

Ruby Lee’s

Most know Tim Singleton as a former standout player and coach for the local high school football team. In December, the native islander teamed up with his mother, Deborah Goban, to open a unique Southern-style restaurant on the north end.

Ruby Lee’s, named in honor of Singleton’s grandmother, is the island’s newest hotspot for sports, blues and soul food.

“I get excited just talking about it,” Singleton said. “We’re making everything fresh, to-order. And with us being on the north end of the island, we are able to offer it at an affordable price. People are really enjoying it.”

Using time-tested family recipes, Ruby Lee’s serves up such comfort food classics as authentic fried chicken, southern

26

fried pork chops, smoked baby back ribs, seasoned pulled pork, sautéed collard greens, fresh seafood and more.

Live entertainment is offered at 7 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays. More nights of live music will be announced soon. Along with good food and music, Ruby Lee’s is also the place to be for sports fans. The restaurant has all of the sports packages and offers a daily happy hour from 4-7 p.m.

Plans for a Sunday brunch are in the works.

“I think our eclectic appeal makes us stand out,” Singleton said. “We’ve got sports, blues and soul food … and our food can be healthy. We offer it in grilled and fried versions. We also have a build-your-own salad. We’re not trying to do too many things. The things we do, we’re going to do very well.

The Lowcountry southern appeal is something we are going to try and master.”

Ruby Lee’s is located at 46 Old Wild Horse Road, next to the Litter Box Thrift Store. Hours are 11 a.m.-11 p.m.

Monday-Saturday and noon-11 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, call 843-681-7829.

Pino Gelato Gourmet Café

A new European-style coffeehouse has opened in Bluffton.

Located in Bridge Center, Pino Gelato Gourmet Café prides itself on fresh, high-end coffee drinks, desserts, chocolates, sandwiches, flatbreads and more.

The coffee is fresh-roasted by Charleston microroaster Island Coffee each week.

“Our coffee is the best in the area,” co-owner Krisztian Lonyai said. “(Island Coffee) imports beans from Coasta Rica and Columbia, they roast them on Tuesday and they get here on Wednesday. That’s the main reason why our coffee is so good and fresh.”

Chocolates are provided by DeBrand Fine Chocolates, a company that has twice been listed among “Oprah’s Favorite Things” in Oprah Magazine. Desserts are from a small pastry shop outside of Charlotte.

“Nothing that we have has preservatives,” Lonyai said.

“Everything is very healthy. We really tried to focus on having everything supplied by American manufacturers that offer high-quality items.”

Hours are 8 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Friday-Saturday and noon-8 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, call 843-837-2633.

Old Town Dispensar y ow ner Thomas Viljac has partnered with Matt Jording, owner of Hilton Head’s acclaimed Sage Room, to give the popular bar a menu unlike any other in Bluffton.

“We have super high-end bar food but it’s not super-high in price,” Jording said. “All of our ribeye and fillet we grind at Sage Room for our burgers here.

Along with gourmet burgers, the new menu offers several unique sandwiches and sharable foods, such as nachos and oyster shooters.

“The Tiki Hut is an island institution,” said John Schneider, director of sales at The Beach House. “We’re just hoping to add to that.”

The Tiki Hut is open 11 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. The grill closes at 8 p.m. Live entertainment is offered twice daily through September. There are also two beach volleyball courts and unbeatable ocean views.

Bravo! Pizza

Hilton Head Island’s favorite latenight pizza spot is now owned by Philadelphia native Aaron Gessner, who has lived on the island since 1999. Gessner is keeping all the popular Bravo! Pizza recipes and is adding a few specialties of his own – such as a pizza topped with Philadelphia Cream Cheese and authentic stromboli.

“I’m trying to branch out of the box a little bit,” Gessner said. “Here soon I’m going to mess around with doing real cheesesteaks, perogies, fried provolone sticks and stuff like that.”

Gessner learned the restaurant trade by working at many of Hilton Head’s late night hangouts over the past decade. He is extending his summer hours to 4 a.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

“I worked at Shag’s for five years, when Mojo was running pies until daylight,” Gessner said. “I’m doing the same concept.”

Unlike several pizza places, Bravo! Pizza also delivers to the entire island, including Sea Pines, Shipyard and Palmetto Dunes. new idea Gessner has started is “Barfly Pie.” Bravo!

Pizza has teamed up with several late night bars and will

NEW M O R RESTAURANTS E N E W S A INBBLUFFTON O U T R EAND S T HILTON A U R A HEAD N T S deliver food to their patrons after their kitchens have closed.

“You order a pizza from your bartender and they call us,” Gessner said. “When we hang up the phone, we butt it in front of all other pizzas and have it out the door in 12 minutes. You don’t have to leave the scene and the bar doesn’t have to open its kitchen.”

Bravo! Pizza’s summer hours are 4 p.m.-2 a.m. Sunday through Wednesday and 4 p.m.-4 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. For more information, call 843-342-7757.

Casey’s Sports Bar & Grille

One of the island’s most popular sports bars has new owners.

Partners Marty Mohar and Jim Schmid have refurbished the kitchen, bar and dining room areas at Casey’s Sports Bar & Grille, located at 37 New Orleans Road.

They have also rolled out a new menu. Irish and Italian dishes now compliment housemade sports bar favorites. Whether you’re craving a fresh salad for lunch, a hand-cut steak for dinner or just want to enjoy an ice-cold cocktail while watching your favorite team, Casey’s is the place to be. Lunch, dinner and drink specials are offered daily. Happy hour is 4-7 p.m. daily with $2.25 house liquors, $2.50 domestic bottle beer, $1 off craft bottled beer and $2 PBR drafts.

Island Bagel Company

The Island Bagel Company has a new owner. Mark Stone took over the popular island breakfast and lunch spot, which also has a location in Bluffton. He is expanding the extensive pastry selection but has no plans of fi xing Hilton Head’s only bagel shop, considering it was never broken to begin with.

“Everything else is pretty much the same because it was all good before,” Stone said.

Customers can still find New York-style boiled bagels in 16 flavors each morning. Menu highlights are the Lowcountry Breakfast Sandwich, which is bacon, egg and cheese on your choice of bagel; and the in-store roasted hand-pulled turkey sandwich with bacon, provolone and

cream cheese on a hoagie. The Island Bagel Company has two locations at the South Island Square on Hilton Head Island and Sheridan Park in Bluffton. Find more information online at www.hiltonheadbreakfast.com or by calling each location at 843-686-3353 (Hilton Head) or 843-815-5300 (Bluffton).

El Super Internacional

The Lowcountry’s favorite stop for authentic Mexican cuisine has expanded to Sherington Drive in Bluffton, next to Stooges Café. El Super Internacional is a 20,000-square-foot building that features a full-service restaurant, an international grocery store, a butcher, a bakery and a dress boutique.

Hours are 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday. The 20-table restaurant offers an extensive menu starting at 10 a.m. and has a buffet from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. for $7.99.

Hernandez hopes the new location will draw all residents of the Lowcountry.

In addition to the restaurant, El Super Internacional is also an international grocery store, selling items from Central America, South America, Jamaica, the Philippines and more. Each isle of the store features items from a particular country.

A butcher and a bakery area are also present, offering the freshest meat and hand-made breads. The boutique sells bridal gowns, quinceanera and prom dresses, along with baptism and first communion clothes.
