Gilligan's Seafood Restaurant- Goose Creek

My husband and I went for lunch during the week. It wasn't real busy, it was a rainy day. We had a very nice, efficient server. She didn't have a nametag on, but she was great. She took our order and in no time, our food was ready, piping hot and delicious! We both got fried flounder, fries and fried okra. It was a quiet relaxing atmosphere and we will definitely return to Gilligans.

It was pretty slow when we went around 3pm. The people were nice, but not as attentive as I would expect for a fairly empty place. We got grouper tacos and a crab cake sandwich. Both were good. The coleslaw and chili sauce on the tacos were killer. However, the hush puppies were a bit greasy and turned my stomach upside down and inside out. They tasted good, but didn't sit long. Parking: there's plenty of parking but just a heads up that there is a slope and you may scrap your bumper going in or out if you drive a lower car.

We ate here at Gilligan's on a Sunday between lunch and supper time. It was quiet and relaxing. The music was just right. Our waitress was spot on. She was polite, got our order right, and served us very quickly. She kept our glasses full and politely kept a check on us. Food was "just" normal, no spice or real flavor to it. Flounder tasted OK and the shrimp was bland. Overall, the experience was fair. My wife and I rated it on our scale as a 6.5 out of 10.

Went for dinner about 6:30 on a Tuesday night. No one was in the restaurant. Should have been our first clue...I was served an old/bad glass of wine. Server immediately knew, and said she would open a new bottle. Fish was smelly, rubbery. There were 4 of us and even the corn on the cob wasn't good. We won't be back, lucky none of us got food poisoning!

The food was better than I expected and the atmosphere was very relaxed. The staff are very welcoming and ready to make your experience a memorable one. A very good small town seafood restaurant that does not disappoint. Very glad we stopped in.
