About

RestaurantSeafood RestaurantAmerican Restaurant
Islander 71 is a nod to the easy going beach life of the Isle of Palms in the 1970’s. Taking you back to when kids rode bikes freely, Dads drank beer on the beach and Moms sunbathed to a golden brown. Afternoons were spent crabbing on the dock, or catching Reds at flood tide. Dinner was a gathering time for friends and family to share succulent seafood and fruity drinks. Laughter and good vibes were in the air as the sky turned into a mango sunset. Welcome to Islander 71.

    Was here a few weeks ago as a part of a wedding celebration. Friday night drinks were amazing. Cocktails were spot on. Bartenders was quick and friendly... Went back the next day for lunch. Service was friendly, Food was good and the menu has something for everyone. definitely would recommend.

    Location was great. Gorgeous views. Good service. Absolutely terrible food. We have been visiting Isle of Palms for over 2 decades now and this was by far the worst and most disappointing food experience we’ve ever had in the area. This was the third time we’ve been here in the last few years and sadly will not be returning. We had a group of 5 and ordered quite the spread and left probably 75% of it on the table. - Hush Puppies - were so tough and dry they truly were inedible. - Crab Dip - tasted overwhelmingly like franks hot sauce and was meh. - Lobster Roll - the lobster itself was extremely tough and tasted old and the bread was stale. - Baked Oysters - again, were extremely salty. - Boom Boom Shrimp - fine, no complaints. - Shrimp and Crab Cake Linguine - pasta had a film over it like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while, the sauce had zero flavor, shrimp was extremely salty, and the crab cake was awful. - Roasted Chicken - was extremely dry and had very little flavor. - Scallops - scallops covered in a gelatinous sauce that was slimy and truly foul to even look at - Tuna Poke - good, no complaints

    Had a wonderful family dinner here! The views of the sunset while we ate were stunning. Restaurant was busy, but no wait to be seated. Our drinks came promptly and they made sure my daughter had extra cherries in her Shirley temple ❤️ the shecrab soup was delicious. The fried saltines were an interesting and unexpected surprise, they really added a nice bit of texture to the thick soup! My mother’s prime rib was to die for! Though the asparagus was definitely undercooked and slightly woody, we had enough food at the table that we didn’t miss them. Hushpuppies were great and were fried to perfection. Server, I wish I could remember his name was great. Very knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. Will probably return before we head off the island!

    I decided to stop for a beer. The manager Kyle stopped to see me while seated at the bar area. Supper nice. I mentioned that I was from Cleveland. He immediately put on the Guardians baseball game for me. Lauren the bartender was also very pleasant. She made my experience memorable. I ordered scallops and mussels. Both were delicious. I would definitely go back on my next trip to this area.

    We’ve been coming to IOP for 20 years and Islander 71 (and previously Morgan’s Creek) was always our first and last stop. But, over the past 2 years the food has gone significantly downhill. We were there in summer of ‘25 and it (fish dish) was tasteless and bland, and we decided to give it 1 more try this past August but, yet again, we got the same results. We had the salmon and a pasta dish and it’s shocking how bad it was. No taste whatsoever. My sister just went last night against my advice, but I told her if she went to get the fried shrimp because it was maybe the 1 item that might be ok. It’s hard to mess up fried shrimp. Unfortunately, she texted me afterwards and said it was old and cold and also felt the restaurant had gone downhill. I don’t know what’s happened, but sadly we will not be returning unless there’s new management/chefs. There are too many other restaurants on IOP, Sullivan’s Island, and even nearby Charleston that are far better especially with the prices they are charging for food. Yes, the ambience is nice and it’s been a staple in our family for our summer vacation for decades, but there are many restaurants with much better food and also great ambience.
