WiseGuys features several small plates including pizzettas, sliders, nightly specialty items, not to mention our steaks! Highlights of the menu include local seafood creations and hand selected premium steaks from sterling silver. Our steaks are aged a minimum of 28 days for maximum flavor and tenderness in every bite. An aged steak is not just an aged steak at wiseguys; it is a wiseguys prepared steak, and is truly the best on hilton head. In fact, WiseGuys has such a strong menu and following that we were voted "Best Martini Bar," "Best Steak," and "Best Tapas" in recent years. Unique to the island for its contemporary and sophisticated feel, WiseGuys has quickly become Hilton Head Island's see-and-be-seen dining hot spot. Our luxurious dining room, accompanied by a modern bar and lounge, will transport you away from the island and into an urban restaurant atmosphere. The amazing ambiance is second-to-none on Hilton Head. WiseGuys features an expansive bar, a cosmopolitan lounge, a semi-private dining room with an award-winning wine list of over 200 bottles. We also have a Wine Keeper system, which ensures every glass of wine is as good as the first. You are invited through the stainless-steel doors into our plush and friendly environment where you can savor our steaks, sample the wines, and share our passion.

Best meal we have had on our vacation. It has improved 100% since we are there a couple of years ago. The steak was delicious and the staff was top notch. Will be back in June for another great experience! Once again our favorite.

We had a great early bird special meal along with appetizer and dessert. Wife had filet and crab cake while I had short rib. Both were outstanding. Lobster & Crab wontons to start. Excellent. Wedge was great for me and tomato bisque for her. Capped it off with an incredible Apple crisp. Sat on patio with dog under heaters. Only ones out there. Chad was our waiter he was spectacular. Treated us so well. Took great care of him. He’s an incredible asset. Can’t wait to come back when we are back in town next year. Our first time and we loved it.

Our server, Nicky was excellent. Extremely friendly, attentive, in depth menu knowledge, and professional. Very disappointed they now use a coated french fry instead of the hand cut fries from the past

The whole experience was amazing! Our waitress was personable and attentive. The food was incredible!!!! Started with the French onion soup and the shrimp/calamari appetizer. Wow! Had the WG salad with steak, my husband had the prime Rib. They did not disappoint. We ended with the crème brulle flight. What a way to top off an excellent evening!

We sat in a booth next to the kitchen door and behind the lounge area. when I received my pasta diablo dish the homemade pasta was so starchy that I couldn’t eat it. By the time my meal was replaced My three other guests were completely finished eating and ready to leave so I had my meal packed to take home. As a side bar. I had a Caesar salad before the main course and it was rather tasteless. one of my guests had the oysters appetizer and wasn’t at all pleased with her choice. Only one of four of us was completely satisfied with his meal, which was the short rib lasagna. Needless to say we were most disappointed in our experience at Wise Guys.
