We own at Barony and go to Hilton Head every year. There are restaurants for every taste and pocketbook - from very expensive to pretty cheap. And we've found that some of the more costly don't necessarily have food as good (or at least any better) than the pretty cheap ones. One thing - there really aren't any restaurants close to Barony - I mean within walking distance - except those at the Westin. But there are a ton of places to eat on the island, and in Bluffton. In Hilton Head we like a place called the Sea Shack - down toward the Sea Pines end of the island. We often go there for lunch. It's a dive, frequently by locals, and by those tourists lucky enough to find it. Ask for directions, as the food is fresh and great, and the prices are very good. This is an eat outside on a picnic table with a view of the parking lot or inside at one of the few plastic tables, but the food is wonderful and you can't beat the price. Also, the Salty Dog Cafe (located inside Sea Pines) has a great deal on peel and eat shrimp and crab legs, as well as happy hour prices on drinks, every afternoon. You have to eat in the bar upstairs, but the view is great and they let kids in too with their parents. We've made a meal on the peel and eat shrimp and the other hors d'ouerves on special in the afternoon. Also, many places have early bird menus - a good deal if you don't mind eating early.
