We started our Hilton Head vacation with dinner at Scott’s Fish Market in Shelter Cove Marina, and it was the perfect first-night spot. We went on a Sunday in February around 6:30 PM — about 40 degrees outside — so we chose to sit indoors, but you can absolutely dine outside right on the marina when the weather is warmer.
We were seated immediately, and the relaxed atmosphere set the tone for vacation mode. If you’re looking for waterfront dining in Hilton Head with marina views, this location delivers.
The happy hour menu at the bar was impressive — not just a couple basic options, but a wide selection (easily 15–20 drink specials). It felt like a true coastal bar experience.
I ordered the baked scallops with chef vegetables and rice, and they were cooked perfectly. Scallops can easily turn rubbery, but these were tender, buttery, and some of the best I’ve had. The menu overall reflects mid-range seafood pricing, which felt fair for the quality and the marina setting.
We brought our three-year-old daughter, and this place is surprisingly family-friendly. She ordered fish and chips from the kids menu and ate most of it. The kids menu doubles as an activity sheet with crayons and multiple games — not just a basic coloring page — which kept her happy and engaged. We never felt rushed, which I really appreciated.
A local tip we learned: apparently in the summer, especially on Thursdays, they have live music and it becomes one of the best spots in Shelter Cove to hang out. After our experience, I can see why.
If you’re searching for:
• Seafood in Shelter Cove
• Waterfront dining in Hilton Head
• A strong happy hour menu
• Family-friendly restaurants on the marina
Scott’s Fish Market is absolutely worth adding to your list.

Had an absolute amazing experience with the family this last weekend. The staff took extremely great care of us (Jordan and Whitney and Anthony). The food was out of this world. More than we could ever expect. Vibe was perfect sunset was memorable. All in all an over the top experience. Will be back time and time again!! Thank you all so much!

Its weird for me to 5 star across the board normally on a place like this cause there is always “better” right? Well…my wife and I came here 2 times in as many days, sat in opposite sides of the place, had the same amazing waiter, and the same incredible dishes that were even BETTER the second time around!
While you can definable dump a ton more somewhere else in Hilton Head…this place is a gem. Its got a great patio and perfect noise/size ratio to where I never had to shout to talk but still could hear and enjoy the live music from the one man band.
My wife got the fish and chips, which is normally my go to, and it was such a great change of pace. From the batter to the seasoning on the fish…it blew us both away. Makes me forget what real southern style fish is supposed to be like!
Lately, I have been on this weird scallop kick. I am in sales and part of my job is entertaining and having way too much steak and way to nice of places. So after I just burned out on steaks…scallops are rich but not too heavy…especially when you do it a lot. Honestly, my expectations were in the dirt as they weren’t pan seared but baked scallops which can for sure be hit and miss IMO.
Turns out, they might be the best I have ever had outside two nights before when I had them the first time. Absolutely incredible. I would come back to HH…just to eat them again. In all honesty, we came back to put the place…in its place as we were sure it was a fluke. NOPE. That good.
So if your ever out in Hilton Head and your looking for a fair price with INCREDIBLE food. Look no further than Scott’s.
We went there cause its funny(obviously the name) but we left super fans. Can’t wait for another shot at those baked beauties!
And last…service rocked! We appreciate you!

Dogs are allowed on the patio. There was live music, but the patio wraps around so you can have the option to not be so close. Food was delicious and beautifully presented.

3 maybe 2 stars. I have been coming here for 5 years, and the food, service and attitude have consistently gotten worse.
Salmon salad – reeked of fish, not well loaded. Salmon was cooked medium rare.
Chicken casadilla – after thought, lacking cheese, chicken and had no seasoning.
Pulled pork bbq – not bbq, let me repeat, not bbq. This is a pork shoulder done in their oven, chopped to 1/4” pieces and paired with open pit bbq sauce. Sad.
Chicken Caesar salad- missing most of the chicken…. Does 3 slices of chicken count?
We won’t be back.

Food was good everyone enjoyed their meal and reasonably priced. Atmosphere was relaxed nice views of the marinas. Ordered a old fashion that was served in a water glass They should update their glasses to proper cocktails glasses.

This is my favorite restaurant in Hilton Head. Live music just about every night. Great outdoor seating with a view of the harbor. The food was great and the Hurricane drinks were delicious. After you eat you can take a walk on the boardwalk and get some photos with your family of the yachts in the background then check out all the little shops. Overall just a great dining experience. I will definitely be back.

We came for dinner last night. Our server, Amy was wonderful. Very attentive but didn’t hover. My husband has the she crab soup and salmon salad. I had the baked scallops with wonderful mixed vegetables. I asked the chef for some garlic butter on the side to make it scampi and was served with a smile. The manager (I assume) stopped by to take the empties and chat with us. Overall a very wonderful experience and one we will look forward to having again. They had a beautiful outdoor seating area overlooking the marina we might try on a warmer day. A real surprise is we didn’t realize until the end of our meal they have a BOGO on until the end of February. BOGO any most all entrees! Now is the time to try it for the first time, or come back and treat yourself and your loved one. No excuses now!

Relaxing and delicious. If you think the service is slow, then you’re moving too fast. The baked oysters had a wonderful depth of flavor. The grilled salmon does not need the barbecue glaze.
