Loaders Island Grill

Had the jalapeño burger would have been better with left, Tom, and a pickle spear overall it was ok I ordered it med rare and it came well. done also bacon was tough and dry the baked beans were good and the beer was great

I was really surprised by this place. Everyone in my family enjoyed their food and it was very flavorful. Nice change from all the seafood restaurants around. Really nice and attentive staff too! We will be back.

Are here the other night. The staff was great and that’s the only reason I’m giving any stars. The food was bland and unappealing. Everything had a microwaved meal taste. Chicken sandwich was plain and boring. And my daughter got a corn dog. I expected the corn dog to be plain but it was still cold in the middle. Over all the staff was very friendly and made us feel at home but not a place I’d spend my hard earned money at again.

Meh. All three of us were not crazy about the food or service. Should have known when I asked for a mid well burger and was told they all come out well done that this was not the place for me. Burger tasted OK but would have been great if it was cooked to order… not everybody likes well done. Pulled pork sandwich on a soggy bun was disappointing. Sides were OK at best. Cake was pulled straight from freezer and wasn’t good.
Bartender\waitress wasn’t very good. She poured both of our beers with over an inch of head. For as slow as they were, she took ten forevers to bring everything. Pet peeve of mine is when you’re sat at a booth in an empty place and they seat the next couple right behind you. Booth back was loose and it was either us pushing it against them or vice versa. She also spent more time chatting up a guy with a drink at the bar instead of our 3 top.
Bottom line, save your money unless you’re OK with poor service and subpar food.

Great hot wings!!! Limited menu but everything was great. Barbecue beans were outstanding.

Nice clean restaurant that has good family options. Portions are large. The House Chips are deliciosly salty and crunchy (but not too much) and the ranch dressing is wonderful. All the food we ordered was good (chicken tenders, fried popcorn shrimp, philly, and loaders salad. The Greens were well made and you can tell they are not from a can. Definitely a place to revisit.

Extremely casual atmosphere. However the pork BBQ sandwich was awesome! It was huge and came with 2 sides for only $ 7. Really can’t beat it.

I call this type place «good deal» food. It’s affordable for a family. The BBQ sandwich plate is a great deal considering it comes with 2 sides for only $ 7! The burgers were good. We liked the fries more than the homemade chips, but it’s probably a personal preference. The broiled shrimp were good. The side salad is a great size.
Slight downers… They were out of baked potatoes the evening we went, which was disappointing, but not a deal breaker in my eyes. They were out of hand soap in the bathroom.
On the positive… The dining area was clean and our waitress was nice.

Everything we ordered was super yummy! Service was quick and friendly. The Philly Cheese steak sandwich was awesome quite a few of us ordered that, there was Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Hamburger Steak. Everything was great. The sweet tea is very good, it was strong and sweet. If we come back we’ll be eating here again. They were a good price, Appetizers were between $ 7-​$ 9 and Meals were between $ 9-​$ 12 on average.

Great food, great service and great prices. We had the Philly cheese steak, the pulled pork sandwich, the grilled cheese and the ribs. The ribs and sauce were tasty, but a little greasy. We are from PA and agree that the Philly cheese steak was delicious, maybe not completely authentic, but still really good. The pulled pork sandwich with Cole slaw was delicious.
It’s a good find!

What a great place!!! Service was great and my husband and I loved our pork sandwiches! We could not believe the prices! So many other places around there have terrible service and not so great food. This was a nice change from our other disappointments! We def recommend it! Would love some «gluten free» options so our whole family could eat there, including my sister in law who has celiac disease.

Really great food, friendly service, and the prices are CHEAP! Very clean bathrooms, and you can see into the kitchen from the main dining area. Definite recommend.

Great food and service. The tortilla cheese dip was great. I had the Philly cheesesteak and my son had ribs. Both were excellent.

Went in for a casual lunch. We were greeted promptly. The establishment was very clean but could us some work on the ambiance front. Our server was very friendly. The menu had something for everyone. It certainly leaned BBQ. Ribs were really good. BBQ sandwiches were at hit with my party. I really enjoyed my steak and cheese. Fries were just okay. Hush puppies were awesome and their beans were also delicious. Would come again.

Great service. Food is delicious. My husband had ribs and raved about them for hours. I had a smoked ham & cheese on Texas toast and my kiddos loved the corn dogs & fries. We enjoyed the visit!

Delicious food at a very reasonable price. Attentive waitstaff (Ashley was so friendly!) and nice atmosphere. I enjoyed my BBQ chicken w/​hush puppies & coleslaw, and my grandfather raved about his BBQ sandwich. We will definitely be back!

We were anxious to try this place. Hated to see Tomo go but heard good things about the new owners. We were pleasantly surprised. Had wings, chicken tenders and ribs and it was all good! Nice décor, very good service, and decent beer selection. Hope they keep the quality up — good alternative to Sharkys and the God-​awful service at OIFC. We’ll definitely be back!

This place is awesome!!! The staff is great and the food is amazing. Get the Loader’s Burger and onion rings or the ribs. Everything is amazing! We came on a Sunday, and had to wait all the way until Wednesday to come back again for the barbecue. It is a great little place to go to while you’re at the beach.

Great food!!! Great Southern hospitality!!! We were here Sunday for dinner. Owners’ invited us back on Wednesday for BBQ!!! Fantastic BBQ! Definitely recommend it!!!

Great family place! Service was attentive, friendly, and quick. Food was excellent. Décor was clean and neat. What’s not to love about that?
My wife and I brought our three kids here on a Friday afternoon for early dinner. We were seated quickly by the friendly hostess. Our waitress came soon after and got our drinks. We each had something different: I had chicken filet sandwich with potato salad, my wife had BBQ sandwich with onion rings, kids had burger, chicken fingers, and grilled cheese all with hush puppies. Everyone loved their food! Will definitely go back again!
