Reviews for Barbara Jean's in St Simons Island, GA
I got the crabcake sandwich/burger with fries. The bread for appetizers, was pretty yummy, we got 2 rolls, 2 jalapeños... cornbread and pumpkin bread. The Barbra Jones tea, I suggest should use a better alcohol instead of schnapps. The friedchicken tenders were spot on, great size and very tasty for the quality. Thank you "big daddy" aka Pete for some good Georgiahospitality. I highly recommend! Read more
Amazing crab cake. Slightly crispy on the outside, tender and flaky crab shreds inside, and yummy flavor. The basket of breads... placed on the table were all moist and delicious? pumpkin bread, yeast roll, and jalapeño corn bread with whipped butter! Ihear the shrimp and grits here are great too! Will return another day to try them. And will definitely return for the crabcakes. Will continue my quest for best crab soup. Read more
Was visiting for a weekend vacation in St. Simons Island. Heard good word by mouth about this restaurant. We were skeptical when... walking in, the hostess/waitress was not very friendly and looked stressed. We found out they were short staff. Otherwise, ourwaitress was super nice. The food was amazing, ordered the shrimp and grits. The shrimp was a perfect texture. The squashcasserole was the best that I have ever tasted at a restaurant. The Key lime martina was okay, but strong. Definitely the bestseafood restaurant in St Simons Island. Read more

They advertise that they have authentic Southern food. Let me tell you. They really do!! The cocktail sauce for the shrimp was... the best I have ever tasted. The cabbage tasted like Mom's. There's not a higher compliment I can give than that. The broccolirice casserole was delicious. The breads were homemade and delicious. The homemade honey butter was to write home about. My onlyregret is that I don't live closer. Wonderful. Thank you for the food and the hospitality!!! Read more
