Service was fast tonight but app never came out dinner arrived and server was clueless. Missing things from order and they arrived as we were finishing. Not my best trip to gnats. Shame this is a great place just a bad nite for dinner here

Great crab cake platter dinner! Huge cakes, FULL of crab. Great taste, obviously fresh and amazing portion size! Fried green tomatoes and dips were delicious, but a little heavy on the cornmeal. Grits are good, no complaints. Great drink selection. Love the atmosphere, and the band is really good too. Update: band is GREAT and it is great for dancing — I’m expecting and a designated driver, so the fact that I’m having a great time and everyone else is having a few drinks is telling. Definitely coming back!

Gnats Landing Bar and Grill is located in Saint Simon’s Island in Redfern Village. What I really loved about this place is the décor! It’s decorated like an old shack. Very laid back. You have the option to dine in near the bar area if you don’t like the humidity outdoors. There is a front patio with a bar and inside the restaurant there is a outdoor(covered with fans and a huge screen tv) dining area with long picnic tables. I love the set up and how open it is. My mom and I sat near the bar area and our waitress was Samelia. She was very attentive and helpful. I couldn’t decide what kind of beer I wanted to drink. So she let me a sample, so I ended up getting the Florida Brew Skinny Dip(Draft) for $ 5.00. What I like about the menu is that it very simple! I think too much is overkill. Lunch, my mom ordered a cup of gumbo($ 4.25) and a grilled salmon sandwich(on hoagie roll) with fries($ 11.95). I got the half order of the Autumn salad($ 9.95)-onions, crumbles of blue cheese, cranberries, walnuts, balsamic vinigerette dressing and added blackened Scallops for $ 2.00. We got our food within 20 minutes and I couldn’t believe how much scallops I got on my salad! WOW! Perfect taste and great flavor. My mom really enjoyed her meal as well. She was alittle overwhelmed with the salmon sandwich. She told me it was too big. But she was not complaining :) Bathrooms are very clean. Colorful and nice décor. Love the Mosaic sink. Overall it was a great experience and I would definately come back!

Myself and three friends arrived on a moderately busy Friday night. We took a seat at the bar tables and we were quickly handed menus. When the server came by, my friend ordered a drink and put in her food order, to which he replied«I’m only taking drink orders right now» Then the server continued to take our drink orders, and one of my other guests ordered some food. The server took down the food order, despite denying my other friend her food order. I was tempted to walk out right then and there, but we stayed just in case the service may get better. My friend who was denied her food order was brought the Stella Artois she ordered, and the server asked if she wanted a glass with the beer. She responded«yes» however the server did not bring her a glass after 5 minutes had already elapsed. I had to get up and ask a different staff member to bring my friend a glass, and he handed her a PLASTIC cup, claiming they were«out of glasses». Several moments later our original server wanders by and says«oh sorry we are out glasses», which was clearly obvious due to the fact that my guest had began drinking her beer out of a plastic cup. Realizing his errors, the server went to clean a glass, and brought my guest a DISGUSTINGLY stained glass(see picture). The only reason I gave more than one star was that the food was good for the type of venue and price.

We were looking for a place to hang out, eat some local food and have some drinks. We were told Gnats was a good spot and it seemed to be a happening spot when we arrived so we sat at the bar and ordered. I ordered the blackened mahi mahi and seasoned fries. The fries were the bomb they were fried to perfection and seasoned well. The fish was not fresh although they said it was and it wasn’t blackened. The server asked how it was and we told her it wasn’t fresh or blackened. They took it back and took it off of our bill. We also ordered fried dill pickles and gnats chicken wings. The fried pickles were great they were sliced to the perfect size and fried to perfection. The fried dill pickles came with a sauce they didn’t name but it was the perfect combination. The service was great as well.

Fried pickle chips are the bomb — they are cut nice and thin but are big pieces. Really does seem like chips crossed with fried pickles. I got their friend and grilled swings — really great flavor. Spicy but smokey. These wings I think come lightly breaded fyi. Some of the best wings I’ve had.
