    The hostess at the front desk angry and yelling at staff and guests. Very unfriendly. Assuming she’s part of the family that owns the place. Maybe get a different relative up front….. or fire her….. watched her yell at staff when we tried to check in for our reservation. Watched her yell at a table of guests who wanted to switch tables….. learn to smile. The rest of the staff was super nice friendly and helpful. Very loud and noisy and the tables and chairs are up against each other so I understood the table who wanted to switch since they had six people

    The restaurant was extremely loud and definitely not a fine dining experience which is why we went and what we paid for The noise level was ridiculous The food was just ok Bread needed something added to the olive oil as I. Herbs or balsamic vinegar? Pear salad was delicious but overpriced Gnocchi was too soft The sundae was hard to eat and was like flavored water towards the end The tiramisu was too wet We would not return because of the noise level even though the restaurant has no control that people don’t seem to know how to use an inside voice

    Ombra's was once again an outstanding experience with excellent service and delectable food. A knowledgeable staff who met our every need. I would rate it as one of the top 3 restaurants on the island. You can't go wrong spending a evening at Ombra.

    It was Mother's Day and, even with a reservation, we had to wait 15-20 minutes for a table. The server, however, apologized and gave us complimentary glasses of champagne. The wait was the only lowlight of the evening. The food was outstanding - probably the best swordfish that I have ever eaten - and the service was top notch. OMBRA has been, and still is, our favorite restaurant on Hilton Head.
