We had such a great experience at Fannie’s On the Beach! We ordered the Low Country Boil with seasoned shrimp, corn on the cob, potatoes and sausage, and the Surf and Turf with a rack of pork ribs, seasoned shrimp, fries and coleslaw. Everything was absolutely fantastic and packed with flavor! The staff were super friendly, the atmosphere was fun and laid-back, and you really can’t beat being right on the beach. Great food, great service and the perfect beach vibe. Definitely a must-stop if you’re in the Tybee Island area! 🌊🦐🍖☀️

We were able to walk in at noon and be seated right away. We chose outside seating and it was nicely shaded. Our server was kind and the service was quick. We were in and out with drinks, Tacos, kids meal and paying in about 30 minutes. Shrimp tacos and frozen daiquiri were delicious. Fun little beachy spot!

Take out food was good. I really liked the grilled chicken caesar salad. The croutons were awesome. They didn’t give us the kid drinks which we didn’t realize until we got back. One of the mozzarella cheese wedges was hollow. Ordered a second time on a different day. This time they didn’t forget anything so that’s a plus. Vegetarian in laws really liked the Beyond Burger.

This was our first time in the area and found Fannie's in a local publication. I had several questions about their food options and our server, Ray, was able answer them all. She was engaging, helpful, and attentive to our needs. My wife enjoyed the coconut shrimp and a properly named drink called "the painkiller". I had the ribs. This was my first time having Carolina BBQ and they were great, but my biggest surprise was the side of coleslaw. I am very particular, some say picky, about how I like my coleslaw. I never order it at a restaurant, but since it came with the ribs why not try it. I DO NOT like vinegar based, coleslaw only needs cabbage, salt, pepper, a dash of sugar (so little that you don't know it's in there) and it must have a lot of mayo. Fannie's coleslaw has redwine vinegar, carrots, other seasoning, and so little mayo that it doesn't seem to have any. I knew it wasn't going to be good before I had the first bite, but I tried it anyway. I didn't hate it. I continued tasting it while Ray told us what all is in it. After every bite I'd say, "I want to dislike it, but I can't". When Ray was finished so was the bowl of slaw. If you get a chance to eat at Fannie's On The Beach ask for Ray and try the slaw.

The location is excellent, with the beach dunes across the street. The restaurant is not crazy loud. The decor is appropriate for a beach themed restaurant. The frozen sangria and Pina Colada were tasty. The "Beer Battered" onion rings seemed closer to a frozen breadcrumb product, and were dry. Most were untouched. The Bang Bang shrimp tacos were excellent, flavorful without being overpowering. The Hawaiian pizza was disappointing in many ways. It just wasn't flavorful. The crust wasn't tasty, and wasn't cooked properly. The crust was underdone, but the edges were burned. This leads me to believe that the pizza stone was not allowed to get back to fill temperature before another (my) pizza was cooked. The photos show this. On top of that, the pizza was not even properly cut, with the cuts not reaching the edges (photo). I guess we had the backup weekday cook. Stay away from the pizza, but the restaurant is worth visiting.
