Our server was kind and wonderful to work with, I would have given higher stars but our food took an extra long time to arrive, party of two and we were told it wasn't a busy night. Each item we ordered was slightly over cooked. The server did ask how things were, we just did not feel it was to the point we needed to complain. The oyster appetizer had some inedible pieces. I can say thats never happened in a restaurant before. I would say the atmosphere was on the louder side but still enjoyable.

Excellent time with my Family on a busy weekend at Franks. We were seated quickly for lunch. The hostess and servers were friendly professionals, and food was high quality. The atmosphere was great, right in a really nice waterfront location of Georgetown. You can also park a boat right at the public dock out front and you are literally steps away from a nice meal. Update, on another visit, we sat outside on the back patio, super nice once again, great food and service.

We could tell lots of amazing moments and memories lived at Frank‘s! Let’s say so, the place, the staff, Ms Mary, our server, the menu we got and the attention to details, perfect! Being Swiss, we know about hospitality and passion on quality! Most impressed I really was, seeing our skilled server even changing the cooler as a whole to keep the excellent rosé Aix-en-Provence bouteille nicely chilled! The dishes and the sweet surprise getting a tasty dessert for my wife’s birthday! The perfect day! No second first impression! They did it! A special thanx to the amazing kitchen team, creating a culinary trip to paradise!

Met the chef outside! Several places we had been shopping in recommended going here so we went! Was told the frozen Gin & Tonic and the deviled eggs were life changing and they were! Also ordered the New England Clam Chowder. There's a secret ingredient in the chowder that you must taste for yourself. And finally the burger was amazing. This is high quality foodie territory here and if you are in the area, a must visit!

We had a fabulous meal here. We were seated on the outdoor waterfront deck with a tremendous view. The burger was great and my wife loved her shrimp dish. The server was great as well. Highly recommend this place!

I absolutely loved my lunch here. I got a half portion of the spinach salad and the crab cakes from the small plates. Both were high quality and flavorful. The view of the water from the outside seating in the back was great but the inside was very nice too. Service was excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Oh my goodness! This restaurant was fabulous in every way. Not many reviews yet because the restaurant is new to this area but all the locals know about it. We are so glad the folks at The Kiminski House recommended it to us. We are not from this area. When traveling we use Google reviews and local recommendations to find the best places to eat. We almost missed this one. Everything we ordered was well prepared and beautifully presented - pimento cheese dip, crab & beet salad, fried oysters, mussels, carrot cake, & chocolate cake. So, so delicious. The service was outstanding (thank you Jamie). The food was served quickly and it seemed like we were attended to by everyone employee in the house. The manager (Alayna) is warm and welcoming. I give my highest recommendation!

We love Franks out back in Pawley's Island so gave this a try for appetizers and drinks. We were not disappointed. It was a very hot day, but still pleasant while eating on the deck. View is so pretty. Wine selection is great...had a white from France. It's not always easy to find a good wine selection so that was definitely a plus! Fried oysters we're delicious and fresh chips with pimento cheese tasty. Georgetown is a pretty town to poke around and shop too.

The food was delicious! The small plate filet, and crab patty were wonderful. The mac and cheese side was large enough to share. And the flourless chocolate cake was rich and delicious (recommend sharing this too). The bartenders were friendly and helpful. The drinks, including the frozen cocktails and strawberry spritz were amazing!

If you're budget conscious this restaurant is not for you. It's pricey for small portions. You're mainly paying for the vibe since the food is good, but not worth the cost. If you don't care about the price tag then it's a great restaurant! It was cozy inside and on the back porch! Good service and fun cocktails! See prices and portion sizes before going.

Wow! Another fabulous meal at Franks on Front! Fried oysters appetizer, creamy spinach soup (don't hate), pork chop, crab cake, filet and amazing service! The restaurant was very busy and all of the employees were friendly. Can't wait to go back!

Amazing restaurant. Great service , great food , great vibe and great place all around. You can sit on the sidewalk and enjoy the people of Front Street, inside is a beautiful space with exposed brick and a beautiful bar or the back patio with its amazing views of the harbor. This place is hard to beat! You must start with the meatballs and save room for the flourless chocolate cake.

4-stars! Easy to access location, beautiful bar and interior! The mocktails and cocktails were so good! The beer was ice cold- this seems be rare anywhere around here. The presentation and taste of the food were perfect! The service, top-notch! John was our server and had great insight and recommendations. The prices were fair! The bathrooms were tidy and appeared clean. The ambiance was pleasant and atmosphere became more exciting and fun as the eve progressed! The only negative part of the entire experience was a phone call to the location, prior to going there. We had a few questions and reached out via phone call. The individual who answered appeared to have minimal social skills or is emotionally immature and should not be answering the phone. They were actually not forthcoming at all with information in regards to our questions. They seemed to be very annoyed about whether this location offered call-ahead and/or reservations and they hung up before we were finished asking an additional question.

Hands down one of the very best meals I've ever had! The menu selections were fantastic! The option for a small plate suited us well! All on point with flavor, variety and service! We had a great view of the river and decor was fun and chic! We will be back with friends in tow!

This restaurant was just perfect! I had such a delicious lunch with a beautiful river view. I couldn't decide between the small plate crab cakes or the spinach salad but luckily, I was able to order a half portion of the salad. It was fresh and delicious and the pickled onions plus the bacon and bleu cheese gave it the kind of interesting and salty flavors that I love in a salad. I'd definitely reorder this. The crab cakes were so good and had lots of meat. They were served on top of buttery, creamy grits that I'm already craving again! The mustard sauce wasn't overpowering and it was a delicious dish. Service was also excellent. This was one of the best meals I've had in a while. There are a lot of restaurants in the area but I'd likely return here over trying somewhere new because it was so good. I saw several people ordering burgers that looked great. I'd also like to try the crab Mac and cheese! They also had a roasted vegetable plate entree which sounded tasty if you didn't feel like eating meat or seafood but wanted something more than a salad. This was a charming spot, inside and out with quality food and great flavors.

Great fairly new restaurant in Georgetown by same owners as Franks in Pawley's Island.... Waiter told us they have been open for about 2 months. Nice little place right on the water. It has a nice back porch overlooking the Sampit River. I'd give it 4.5 stars for ambience. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday and the place was pretty busy. From the hostess to the waiter, to the busboy and runners, everyone was super polite and friendly! Our waiter Max was especially helpful and provided excellent service!! 5.0 stars for service. We had the garlic shrimp small plate as an appetizer and two salads for lunch. Wife had the Mediterranean, I had the chopped salad. We both added fried oysters. Salads were excellent! 5 stars for lunch!!! We'll definitely have to go back to try dinner.

My wife and I had dinner here. The food, atmosphere and service where outstanding. The biscuits were to die for as was the Veggie Plate. I highly recommend this restaurant. You can sit inside or outside and they both have a great vibe!

Fun place to go with good food and service. Does not take reservations but you can put your name in the list and go to the bar behind the George. They will call you when your table is ready.

Food, Drinks, Service and Ambiance were all great. We were staying at the George on Front Street and our first night in Georgetown. We were looking for a place we could walk to without the need of driving. We had a great meal and dining experience. Thanks to all the service staff.

I had been wanting to try Franks in Front since they opened and am glad I did. The fried oyster appetizer was excellent as were the garlic shrimp and petit fillet entrees. The service was attentive and spot on.

Was passing through Georgetown and randomly selected this restaurant. What a wonderful fine! Ambiance is formal with white tablecloths but has a casual feel. It was very busy at midday on a Saturday, but we were seated quickly. Our server provided excellent service. We enjoyed the conch fritters, the spinach salad and the special of the day - small plate of grouper on grits. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. So nice to have a good new restaurant in Georgetown!

Great new addition to the dining scene in Georgetown. Over several visits I've tried the pimento cheese, the fried oysters, the deviled eggs and the fresh catch ( which was flounder the day we dined) and all were exceptional. The cocktails are fun and the space is as charming as its young, albeit very restaurant savvy, owners.

Lunch Nov 16 Crab cakes were super and my wife's BLT was excellent. Bloody Mary were good. Would highly recommend. We will dive up from Mt Pleasant again.

Food, service and atmosphere were fabulous! Four of us were visiting Georgetown from Southport NC. We now know why the reputation of Frank's on Front is so good! The Salmon was amazing, the crab cakes perfect and the appetizers were delicious. Great wine choices, too. Perfect for these visiting foodies. The service was outstanding, too!

631 is located in a beautifully restored historic building and has a great atmoshere! It has a covered (heated) patio in the back by the river/marina where we had our diner. We were welcomed warmly and all of the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our well made cocktails and loved our dinner. We ordered the quail (hard to find these days) and the petit filets were wonderful. We also had a chopped salad and the tuna poke with avocado and soy was delicious. We love this place, casual and fun and really good food!

Food is good, as well as service. The ambience in the bar is special; they have comfortable bar seating!

I got a shrimp dish with capers and artichoke. It was really a soup. The shrimp was overcooked and tasteless and it had a very sour taste. We were seated right by the kitchen so it was very loud and busy. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience.
