Situated in the Coligny Beach neighborhood on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina, there is an innovative restaurant named Daniel’s. Opened in 2010, this fun and vibrant establishment will only enhance the culinary surprises that await your palate as Chef Russel Keane delivers a wonderful execution of his delightful preparations.
The stunning decor and colorful wood-intensified walls are catchy to the eye. Looking back at the front door after entering (above), there are cozy booth-like seats with narrow tables available and perfect for sipping cocktails. Below, the view entering the restaurant through the massively ornate entrance.
When you enter Daniel’s, to your immediate left is a bar area highlighted in light blue lights, while to your right is a dining area and additional bar enhanced with red lights, seemingly giving the space a fire-and-ice concept.
I snapped the below photo from our table. I was amazed by the intricacy of the design work on the walls and throughout the venue…
Every day from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM, Daniel’s offers their Happy Hour menu to those visitors who are prepared to dive into all things delicious! We started with a glass of wine and a Bluetini…

Crab Stuffed Salmon Sliders
Above and below, the savory and incredibly flavorsome Crab Stuffed Salmon Sliders were also divine. Their tender and crispy bread base, fresh arugula and tomato, fresh seared Atlantic salmon and creamy pickled sauce on top not only tasted unique, but also made for an extremely attractive offering…
