“ A visit to CQ's while visiting Hilton Head is a "must do". The staff is wonderful, the bartender on point and the food is out of this world. Our party of 9 ordered across the board from salad, chicken seafood and beef. No one was disappointed. The lobster ravioli was delicious. Separate checks? No problem! Make the time to visit this quaint and personable restaurant. ”

“ We went 3 for 3: medium rare 8oz filet cooked perfectly. High quality Ahi tuna prepared perfectly, along with fantastic crab cakes. Our service was outstanding as well. ”

“ This was a great spot for parents to take their grown children! It is a unique building with a cool history, and the food matches the experience! We all got our meals prepared to our liking, and relatively quickly. Our waiter was very personable and made sure to go above and beyond to make our experience wonderful. Thanks so much! ”

“ I've been here twice before and had a great time, but words CANNOT describe how my most recent meal here went above and BEYOND what I remember of this place; my family practically had a six course meal! SIX! Before I get into the food, the restaurant itself. This is most certainly a fancy and fine dining establishment, and the vibe from both exterior and interior certainly radiate that further. The soft candlelit esque interior lighting gives off an impression of a simpler, bygone era, and it works great for my tastes! In reference to the food, I admit I might be using the word "course" a bit lightly, given how the first "course" was the standard bread rolls and butter you would expect from just about any place. But hey, you can't beat a classic! :) Our second course was the salad course. My mother had the Roasted Beets & Arugula Salad, father had the Pear Salad, and I helped myself to a delicious Caesar Salad with anchovies! I'm a bit of a sucker for the highly salty fish, and it paired well with the salad! For beverages, I have never cared for alcohol, so I just went with a water and root beer, but my folks had...well, I don't remember, but they had a selection from the HUGE selection (and just as costly) wine list. They certainly weren't disappointed! The third course was this special item Ravioli looking thing that I can't recall the name of, but it had meat stuffed inside. Our fourth and main entree course followed next, where my mom and I ordered some delectable Marinated Grilled Shrimp, and Dad had...I think it was the Grilled Atlantic Salmon? Course #5 consisted of our main dessert order, where I partook in the Key Lime Pie with strawberry syrup, and they had...forgive me for forgetting the name again, they had some kind of salted caramel brownie square. The sixth and final course consisted of the big and complementary chocolate circles that they gave us when the bill arrived. They even have a special Christmas menu too! TL;DR A fine dining experience with elegant food out the wazoo! If you are staying in the area and are looking for something more than ordinary, look no further than CQ's! ”

“ We all enjoyed our food, the historical Lowcountry ambiance, and the fabulous service! Unlike some of the other venues in Sea Pines this restaurant isn't a total tourist trap. It is fine dining style food in a relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant is family friendly but all the children were well behaved. The pork chop was divine! I'm not a big pork eater but I was quite limited for choice because most of the menu is seafood and I was very pleased with the chop, the bourbon sauce and the sides that it came with. The decor is very cozy, traditional and quaint. I wouldn't recommend sitting outside in the summer because Hilton head has too many mosquitoes. But their patio looks like it would be quite nice for the spring. The Only complaint is that both the Bouillabaisse and Clam dishes both had some grit in them. Maybe the clams could use some extra cleaning or something. The beet salad was okay nothing special, the scallops were very nice and the Bouillabaisse was a southern Creole twist on the dish with andouille sausage. My fellow diners didn't care for the lack of crusty bread with their saucy seafood dishes, but that's a very minor and particular gripe. ”

“ 50 year restaurant at Hilton head must be doing something right. We had a wonderful meal. Main course took a little longer to serve than normal. Thought they missed our order. Waitress was very friendly and full of energy. Food was good. Not a busy night. Our table was right where the staff went in and out of all night. Atmosphere at other tables would be much be better. Overall we would recommend this restaurant. ”

“ 12 of us for dinner the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Food and service were great. Raves fo tuna and seafood pasta. Scallops were tasty and tender but not really seared. ”

“ This is a very fine place to eat. Good food, good service & priced reasonably for fine dining. I highly recommend eating here. Our server was Michelle & was exceptionally friendly & helpful. ”
