Sundae Cafe

Our visit to Sundae Cafe was incredible! From the kindness of the person we spoke with on the phone when making a reservation, to the vibe and atmosphere of the restaurant itself, to the delicious food, to the incredible service we received from our waitress, Taylor. We are a family of 6 (two adults, 4 kids) visiting Tybee on our way home to New Brunswick, Canada after visiting Disney. We’d heard about Sundae Cafe several times before taking our trip so we knew it was a must and boy… we were not disappointed! The food was amazing. We only wish we could have tried every dish! Try the seafood cheesecake!!! Yummm! Taylor, our waitress, was an absolute sweetheart. She was spot on with her recommendations. She was so kind to our girls who loved her Christmas tree earrings! She also went out of her way to make our experience in town even better. The night we were visiting just happened to be Tybee’s Christmas Parade. Taylor kindly shared this with us so we could take our kids and it was the perfect finish to our evening after the best meal.

Do not pass this place by!!!! It may look like a hole in the wall to some but it is one of those places that is exceptional in food prep, service and atmosphere. Our meal consisted of fresh biscuits, shrimp and grips, and seared tuna. My wife had a cop of coffee so good she had to ask what brand it was. To say it was exceptional is an understatement. I will be recommending this restaurant to anyone who mentions they are visiting Tybee Island.

We were at Tybee Island for four days and ate at Sundae’s three nights of our trip! Everything we tried was fantastic!!! The people working there are awesome too! We were a group of 8 so we tried a lot of different things. Favorites… banana pudding cheesecake, seared tuna, calamari, steaks, fried oysters, burgers… all of the sides are great! Locally sourced farm to table food inspired by a very talented chef!!! Make reservations early or you might not get in.

Arrived on Tybee Island on Saturday. EVERY local we talked to through Tuesday said, “go to Sundae Cafe.” Sure glad we did on Wednesday. Friendly and attentive staff, well-crafted cocktails, outstanding food. We were a party of 8. All were happy. I ordered the fried green tomatoes as my entree cuz I wanted homemade dessert too. Tomatoes were served with apricot preserves, goat cheese and balsamic. OMG!! Best ever. You definitely want to eat here. Make a reservation.

Sundae Cafe was the unanimous favorite meal of our Labor Day weekend at Tybee! From the biscuits that came out before the meal, the entrees, to the desserts we loved all of our meals. My sister got the Smokehouse Burger: “the best burger I’ve had in a long time.” The fried shrimp with smashed garlic potatoes and broccolini were loved by my mom. I had the market fish special (pictured) - grouper, red corn grits, Cajun butter sauce, & sautéed okra with tomatoes, bacon, & onions. So good! Then we topped it off with key lime pie and Reese’s peanut butter pie. So rich and divine.

Favorite place in Tybee. You HAVE to get the grilled cheese which is actually a chicken sandwich! This is a must have! It’s beautiful! It’s delicious! It’s perfect! Chefs kiss! I did want to ask for a side of the white bbq sauce but my waitress was very busy. If you want to feel like a local go here it just makes you feel that way.

The food is impeccable. Was late for our trip to Tybee Island due to an issue at our hotel in Savannah. Got to Sundae Cafe and wasn’t sure due to the time if we would be able to dine. The hostess checked with the owner, and they welcomed us. Our waitress, Emily, was super pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu. Food came out quickly and was super yummy. They were out of a few things that I would’ve loved to try due to the late time, but what we did get was *chef’s kiss*. The filet was cooked perfectly, the calamari was such an interesting and delicious twist, and the other apps and entree we got delightful. From the hostess, server, kitchen staff, and owner, they really helped turn our day around. Thank you so much

On Tybee Island for vacation and decided to make reservations last minute to give this place a try. Definitely worth it! May actually eat here tonight as well! Flavors were out of this world and presentation was fantastic! My wife and I went with 5 other friend. We all ordered a meal and shared. My wife and I ordered a Chef Salad, brussel sprouts, and we also ordered the Pecan Crusted Chicken! The chutney on the chicken was the cherry on top. Literally made the meal taste like desert. The chicken was also so tender it was unreal! We also had the Jambalaya at the table, the special which was coffee rubbed prime rib! All were out of this world delicious! To end the night we also ordered the Key Lime Pie, Reese’s Cup Cheesecake, banana pudding cheesecake, and fireball carrot cake! Wow wow wow! Fresh and flavors were the bomb! If I could give this restaurant a 10 Star I would do so! We will be back before we leave!
