The food at halyards has gotten so expensive while the quality has drastically declined. The place was dead when we went and the value for what we paid was pathetic. We were really disappointed as we’ve enjoyed eating there for years whenever we visit Sea Island. We won’t be back.

We eat early to avoid loud crowds and we did great. The food was incredible and as usual Carol was a great server. We had the catfish and I highly recommend it!

Everything was very tasty. Our server was great. Although 3 courses and out in 1hour. Still have a problem with that. As a European that is way too fast.
