Our waitress Trudy took excellent care of us. All of the staff were friendly and very customer service oriented, which is rare lately. Food and drinks were great. Plus they have free parking unlike The Hangout that charges 20 to park even if you are eating and spending there. We will return to Gulf Island Grill for lunch.

We had a great lunch! Sue was such a kind server, and had great insight on the menu with the items we were debating between. Such a fun vibe in the restaurant, and we were checked on multiple times throughout the meal. Highly recommend the bacon cheese fries! The ranch is also delicious. We will be back!
