CQ's, an Island Tradition

One of the great things about coming to Hilton Head Island is the variety of world-class fine dining and just darn good food & beverage options. Without a doubt the Island will provide your palate with whatever you may be hungry for.

Tucked in the shadows of Spanish moss laced live oak trees in Harbour Town, you will find a restaurant called CQ's. Known for its' history and consistently excellent fare, if you only do one fine dining meal during your stay, make it CQ's http://www.cqsrestaurant.com/. Be sure to utilize the ResortQuest Recommends program for a 10% discount off of your food bill! Some of my favorite creations by Chef Eric Sayers include their rich Lobster Pasta, succulent local Atlantic Shrimp Bisque and the exquisite Ahi Tuna prepared with Asian vegetables, edamame hummus with ponzu and pickled ginger.

I prefer to pair the food at CQ's with a Samuel Smith organic pilsner; however, if wine is your thing then you will not be disappointed with CQ's Wine Cellar, offering over 400 selections of the best vino on the planet.For desert, indulge in one of the daily specials, and sit back with a snifter of fine spirit and relax in the ambience of this special place. CQ's is a proud member of ResortQuest's Recommends Program...

Bon Appetite!

Dinner and a Show

When you come to Hilton Head Island, you will be amazed at the variety and quality of our food & beverage options. If you are traveling with family or that special someone, or just needs a quality adults' night out, go no further than the Jazz Corner. With your ResortQuest Recommends Card, you can enjoy the Jazz Corner at an even better value as you're entitled to 10% off the food bill.
The Jazz Corner is located in the Shops at Wexford. It's an intimate venue to see some of the best musicians our Island has to offer, but wait, the food and service is world-class too! A great combination of a cool vibe (the martini glasses chilling on the bar is always a good sign), a wonderful meal and some exceptional Jazz will provide for a memorable evening. Some of my favorites dishes at the Jazz Corner include the Crab Nachos; lump crab combined with fresh cilantro and red peppers topped off with an avocado cream and chipotle aioli. Or how about the Hazelnut Encrusted Red Snapper over rich angel hair pasta and garlic alfredo sauce?As you wind down your dining experience and prepare for the show, do not pass up an after diner coffee drink and a piece of the chocloate kahlua mousse cake!
Check out the Jazz Corner's web site for who is gracing the stage and be sure to make reservations http://www.thejazzcorner.com/

Casual Elegeance

Greetings food and wine connoisseurs!
Alright, do you believe in a sure thing? Well, I've got one for you. You cannot go wrong on Hilton Head Island by choosing Red Fish for lunch or dinner. This place is fresh. This place is cool. Its Napa Valley meets Caribbean flair with a dash of southern service. Here's a hint: Don't miss it! The quality and comfort of Red Fish is evident immediately.
A nice patio for dinning al fresco, a welcome greeting at the door, and soon you and your guests are seated comfortably with tall vino glasses begging for your attention. OK, lots of great choices here, relax and don't get overwhelmed; you can't go wrong. My style is to start with a glass of white wine, perhaps a crisp Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc to warm up the palate. If this isn't your thing, Red Fish offers over 1,000 different wines from around the world! My next move; an order of Shrimp Ceviche, with spicy salsa and some Chef's special Flat Bread (changes daily). The wine and food pairing tastes so good (another glass please!) that I'm now squarely focused on choosing my entree. Horseradish Encrusted Salmon with mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables and lobster cream sauce, WOW!
Red Fish also has you "meatatarians" covered with a nice selection of steak and burgers. Finish it off with a "Key West" Key Lime Pie and prepare to be satisfied! Kudos to Chef Sean Walsh (CIA Grad)and the entire staff at Red Fish for their award winning (literally) performance!
Red Fish also offers retail items, catering and a wine club and is a proud member of the ResortQuest Recommends Program.
