Review Island Bar And Grill, Pawleys Island - Pawleys Island

For ceilingcat's sake, don't feed the darling cats! Leave that to the owners/locals. They'll otherwise beg everyone. Bring your dog(s). No worry there so long as you don't let the dogs be mean and give chase to the fearless felines. TJ is a supreme hostess, waitress, & barkeep. The food is divine. I'll be back to sample more drinks & all else.

Ver good experience. Food was excellent and prices quite reasonable. 5$ for a glass of wine and it’s not happy hour? We had the ahi nachos and a wrap, recommended by the bartender. Will definitely be back.

We went in last night with a large group and were seated quickly (even though our group was slow to arrive) They accommodated everyone. As we arrived we had a small first aid emergency (not their fault) and they even provided us with their first aid kit. The servers were very kind. As for the food--it was great. We got a variety of food--from the Quesadillas to burgers--pretty much everything across the board. We never needed to ask for refills. The fried green tomatoes were my favorite--the sauce on it was a little spicy for me, (but I am not a person who likes spicy and I forgot to ask them to leave it off) but I ate my way through it and enjoyed it. We will definitely be back!

This place rocks!! We stopped in today traveling from Charleston to Myrtle Beach. When we walked in, a sweet lady named Jennifer let us know that she was the only waitress/bartender and there was one person working the kitchen. We decided to stay and support a local bar. Many other couples walked out after she said that, but we decided to roll with Island time. She had our drink order in minutes and immediately brought our drinks to the table. They were fantastic! Island punch is a MUST and I am a beer girl. Get the Island punch! We then ordered two appetizers, grouper bites and Cajun shrimp angels. Phenomenal! Honestly, both were great. We had fantastic service and the only two employees in the restaurant worked their butts off to ensure everyone had great service and great food. If you pass this place, stop in. Support a local gem that is trying its best to survive post pandemic. The food, drinks and most importantly, service was better than many fully staffed restaurants that I have been to. You guys rock! ❤️ We will be back.

We went for late lunch and it wasn’t busy at all. The bartender/server was very friendly. The deck atmosphere is great to bring our dog. Be careful the boards aren’t all even. Just have to watch the cats running around. The food was ok. The fries were overcooked or the oil was old. I enjoyed my grouper sandwich with the spicy sauce. My wife’s burger wasn’t the best.

Good food, Nice patio. Visited for lunch. Seemed very “local-friendly”

We're new in town and depend upon Facebook events to keep us "in the know" for what's going on locally. Island Bar and Grill came up for a night of blues on Pawleys Island. The food and reviews online looked good so we headed down from Florence. An hour and half trip. We weren't deterred by the distance! If it's awesome we will be there! So here we are and Island Bar and Grill doesn't disappoint. Located in an unassuming quaint strip-type mall, with inside and outside seating there's a spot for everybody. We sat inside during the Happy Hour and seriously enjoyed some fresh $5 grouper bites that were fried to perfection and some pierogis sautéd with onions. The grouper was light and flaky and served with some spicy horseradish dippy sauce. The pierogis were pan fried just right and the onions were sweet and caramelized. Yessss. We then moved onto a house side salad for me and a plate of mini burgers that we shared. The salad was fresh and the burgers were hot and juicy. Perfect. The kitchen crew has got it goin on fo sho. Our server Chris was attentive and on point. As was every other server. We were asked numerous times by different servers if we had been helped, wanted another drink or needed anything. I'm assuming they pool tips, and it was amazing how well everyone took care of us. We hopped outside to enjoy the breeze and live blues provided by Smokin Joes Burnin Blues Band. I enjoyed an American Mule (just the right amount of spicy ginger beer) and hubby had a hard soda. Prices on everything were great and comparable to any other bar and grill. Even though we live an hour and a half away in Florence we will definitely be back. Probably on a Monday. Cuz we love us some karaoke! Thanks again to the crew at Island Bar and Grill for a great time!

Nice professional service. What I ordered was great!!! They have alot of outdoor seating and live music. Lots of fun of any age.

ONCE again I'm back at Pawleys Island for work,and so I'm back here at The Islander for lunch,great Burgers medium rare just right,and cool AC and good people...

This place is a fun place to visit during the day. We love the local colony cats that come by for a bite of your lunch if you choose to eat outside. The outside gets a little dusty and dirty but that is tough to manage due to its location. Food is aways good and staff is always friendly!

What a great setting, especially if you ready or on the deck under the Southern live oak trees. I can't say this enough - ORDER the Ahi Tuna Nachos as your appetizer, you will NOT be disappointed!

We came here as the end cap to our family vacation and we were made to feel like family. They have the best service and the best blackened grouper we've had in the area. Live music was an added bonus to the wonderful staff and food. It's a must if you're visiting the area!

Food is great and we enjoy the music at times. We have been coming here for over 2 years (locals) the last few months the service has been not so good. I do believe the new owners are very nice have spoke to the gentleman a few times. Still a great place to relax

We love the food, my hubby and his Tuna Nachos, me and my perogies. We have never been disappointed. The staff are super friendly, and on the ball. Great local place to visit.

Our second time in pawleys island and we had to come back to this place again. Great food and awesome service! Highly recommend and will be back (if we're in PI)!!

New ownership, and this establishment never missed a beat. We drive a long way to dine here and enjoy the music of the tropical band Latitude. The blackened grouper and sweet potato fries are one of my favorite meals anywhere. IBG stocks a cactus lime beer of which I'm particularly fond. Tom, the maître de, will find you a seat when it's crowded. The waitstaff are cheery and efficient. This is the ambience of the old South at it's best.
