I followed a foodie recommendation from Food Network’s Kardea Brown and visited Ella & Ollie’s for my final supper on Edisto Island.

If you’re looking for a nice dinner in an upscale environment, this is the spot for you. It is off the beaten path, located within The Plantation Course at Edisto. Incredible menu!! Ella & Ollie’s uses local fresh seafood, as well seasonal produce for their dishes so the menu changes frequently based on the current season and availability.

I started out with the Marsh Hen Mill Grit Puppies as an appetizer. Marsh Hen Mill’s grits are milled right here on Edisto Island, so again… very local. These grit puppies had the best crispy sensation when I bit into them. These are packed with so much flavor from the smoked cheddar and andouille sausage. The pepper jelly added a sweet touch, providing amazing balance of flavors. I was amazed with how creamy the grits were too. Sooo delicious!

Then, I went with the Edisto Shrimp Cakes because I’ve never seen that offered on a menu before. Edisto Seafood shrimp (notice the local trend? ), preserve lemon and butter pea perloo, citrus butter, and a green tomato chow chow. Unbelievable! And, the presentation blew me away. Such a gorgeous dish and it is as yummy as it looks.

I made sure to sample my cousin’s BBQ Shrimp as well because they were featured in Southern Living. The sauce is quite unique and is definitely what makes this a solid dish and the shrimp…sooooo tender. It’s easy to see why this is Kardea’s favorite dish. Nothing is better than fresh shrimp.

Ellie & Ollie’s is top notch all the way around. Melissa and the staff took wonderful care of us. So hospitable and friendly! Such an incredible dining experience.

11/10 amazing!

AMAZING food!!! Best place to eat in Edisto Island, HANDS DOWN! We loved it so much that we went twice on our trip. Definitely do not miss out on this spectacular restaurant. I had the E&O Salad (house salad), and it was AMAZING. I had the special of the day both times I went – first time was a mild fish called Wahu, and it was amazing, and the second time was a mild fish called Grouper, and it was out of this world. Several of my family members got the Lamb pizza and it was amazing. Also, the service there is amazing. The first time we went it was on a weekday, and it was very quiet and romantic. The second time was on a Saturday, and it was much more crowded, and a few tables was noisy, but we still had an amazing time. I 1000% recommend this place!!

Great food! Really different! Loved our waiter whose wife is a chef and pitched in during COVID, when his day job is a landscaper. Hats off to you. Hard to find. Have to go in the Wyndham entrance. Be aware that GPS takes you to a dead end street. Go all the way around to get to the gate. Worth finding. Not cool to be told we should tip the kitchen staff. You should pay them what they are worth and not make the patrons tip them. Not classy at all.

Our party of 9 had the best experience at Ella & Ollie’s. Service was quick and the staff worked as a team to make our time enjoyable. We ordered bread and ricotta, Brussels, and the grit balls. They were superb. We had a variety of food ordered from the burger to the special, shrimp, short ribs and ribeye. Everyone left satisfied and stated that this was our favorite restaurant out of the 6 we had on the island this week.

Ella and Ollie’s hosted a very special event for us earlier this month. I had several special requests for the event including bringing in entertainment and a video presentation for guests that would be arriving from across the country. Every request was generously granted and the event could not have turned out better.
The owners and all of the staff were 100% focused on our guests and their enjoyment. And the food, oh my gosh! Our guest’s are still Raving! I am forever grateful to Katherine, Paula and their very professional staff for making our event an unforgettable once in a lifetime experience for our guests. I can’t wait to get back to E&Os to enjoy their hospitality once again!

Our first night on Edisto Island Beach we had dinner at Ella & Ollie’s. From the time we walked in we were greet by the host. A very pleasant older gentalman. Our server Chris was awesome, even though he was busy with other tables we never felt neglected.
In two months we have visited four Wyndham properties and there restaurants. This one is hands down the best restaurant.

We highly recommend this place for dinner. Supporting local eatery’s and you will never be disappointed.

The atmosphere is wonderful, prices are reasonable considering prices of chain restaurants and service was great! A bit of a wait for food but it came out perfectly portioned and tasted fresh to order. My husband and i will be returning again soon!
ps this was an anniversary dinner for the two of us

Edit (3 years later)
Still a good establishment! The food is excellent, wait staff is wonderful, service impeccable. Yes it is still pricey but it is worth it! You can’t get any better. I see people complaining about “how long it takes to get food” but do you really want microwave food from other chain restaurants? These people take their time to grill and cook the food. Also the comments about gnats and flies outside on the outside deck area, what do you expect, you are outside its nature if you can’t handle it take yourself inside. If you still don’t like the inside take yourself to a lower quality restaurant and have nasty food. Great job Ella and Ollies keep up the great work! Definitely will return again you guys do not disappoint!

If you would love a date night, and to put on something other than shorts and a bathing suit, also a place more upscale, than this is the place to go. It is pretty pricey and the portions are small compared to other restaurants on Edisto but the food is good, not excellent. The service was very good. This was our last dinner stop during our vacation week on Edisto. We may try it again when returning for vacation just for the ambiance of the place and a date night. I ordered their special which was quail. It came deep fried which I hadn’t realized. I wouldn’t get it again. My husband ordered the shrimp cocktail, very good and the scallops of which there was a small amount compared to The Waterfront Restaurant also $10 more than them. My husband said they were good but not as good as he had “other places”.
I will post pics of our meals.

We had a fantastic experience between our amazing waiter to the delicious well seasoned food. Would absolutely recommend and go back, and may even make the trip down from Charleston just for dinner sometime!
We started with the soup of the day which was a jalapeño cheddar clam chowder which we had to take an additional bowl to go it was so good. The she crab was just okay, the chowder was money. For our entrees we had the bacon wrapped meatloaf which was the best my boyfriend has ever had. Almost brought a tear to his eye. Not because it was like his moms meatloaf, because it was 17795x better than it. I had the red fish special which was on top of a bed of dirty rice and this magic red sauce that I forget what it was. Doesn’t matter though, it blew my mind and I cleaned my plate. Phenomenal experience!!!

3 years later and still very good! I give them 5 stars yet again! Wait staff was very friendly and prompt, food arrived in a very timely manor. The price is perfect for the location (beats driving to a restaurant in Charleston for mediocre food). I will visit again can’t wait for more of these delicious entrées!
