For nice dinners out, Lucky Rooster or Redfish, or if you want to stay in Sea Pines, CQs.
For more casual dinners, Marley's (high energy, noisy) or It's Greek to Me.
For a big seafood lunch, Sea Shack (go early - before 11:30 to avoid lines).
For great lunch deals on weekdays, One Hot Mama's.
For lunch outside near the water (marina), Black Marlin.

I agree with CQ's, ate there my last trip, they have a very nice early bird special, 3 course, soup or salad, choice of 3 entrees and couple dessert choices, my salmon was very good.
Also don't laugh but I really enjoyed Salty Dog Cafe, yes it is touristy, inside Sea Pines (was staying at Marriott with free entrance to Sea Pines) but their shrimp toast was SOOO good and rich I could only eat half of the order.

I posted this on your other thread but in case you didn't see it...
dlangrock, I have been to HHI many times with my family. We are residents of SC and I first went on a work/golf trip. We later began going with a Germany family to share a beach house. We always stay in Sea Pines near South Beach Marina and have rented several different houses as our combined families have grown and kids get older! We now go with them every other year as they have moved back to Germany, but come back to enjoy their beach week as they really love HHI (though we did try to talk them into Kiawah this time - but they want their "comfort spot"). Ironically, we will be there the same week as you.
I think you'll enjoy Sea Pines, and the beach there is much less crowded than those "outside the gate." You can rent bikes through South Beach Marina or another couple of spots inside of Sea Pines. It's fun to go to the South Beach Marina / Salty Dog for a drink and enjoy some casual live music (the food there is only so-so), or go to a Gregg Russell concert at Harbour Town (he plays almost nightly and is a lot of fun).
A few good, fun places to eat have been mentioned - Sea Shack (go for lunch or early for dinner to avoid lines), Kenny B's, It's All Greek To Me, Mellow Mushroom (good pizza) - these are all solid and good, and kid-friendly (believe me, I know as I have three boys also!).
As a SC resident, I have been to many of the developed and not-so-developed beaches and islands. I avoid anything to do with Myrtle Beach - just not a fun time in my opinion, but Pawley's is much more laid back and a good time. We really enjoyed Kiawah as still a resort area, but with much less people than HHI. We are scouting real estate on Edisto to invest in a truly low-key beach property for us. Folly Beach, Isle of Palms, and others are all excellent and have various degrees of things to do, depending on your desires. I think you'll have a great week.
