Fried chicken dinner for the win. And they have great hot sauce . The scalloped potatoes and Siam salad are also not to be missed. Great vibe and backyard with delicious drinks. Don't miss it!
Loved the whole vibe. Though, I had felt like I had been transported back to NY and was in Williamsburg. The oysters were all super fresh and flavorful and their fried chicken game is on point.
Great place for hanging out on the patio on a sunny day! Especially with a frosé or frozen gin & tonic . Baked oysters with parm and lemon were tasty. Wonderful champagne list and fried chicken .
We had the grilled oysters , fried chicken , cucumber salad & scalloped potatoes . All were so great!! This is a must go to spot in Charleston. Service was great too.
Great selection of oysters and the fried chicken is top notch. Can’t really go wrong with anything on the menu. Solid selection of cocktails and wine as well
Everything we tried there was delicious! The seafood and the drinks. The service was great! Owner lady not so much, she asked around, but never stopped at our table. 🤷🏻♀️
Beautiful place with great food. We sat outside in the back which I believe is reserved for larger parties. I got the catfish sandwich which was out of this world, so crispy and tender.
Great fried chicken ! Spicy but juicy. The hush puppies were good. Several in my party said the oysters were amazing, I’ll take their word for it since oysters are the one seafood I don’t like
Fun restaurant / bar in an old auto body shop . Get the shrimp roll , oysters , peel and eat shrimp , and hot fried chicken . They also have frosé.
Possibly our best meal in Charleston (and we had many amazing ones). Oysters , clam lettuce wraps , and fried chicken were all insane. Top it off with some soft serve and sprinkles .
Recommended by locals for a reason. Fried chicken , brussel sprouts , oysters and most definitely the scalloped potatoes (like a savory cake ).
Chicken and oysters wonderful, don't miss the Brussels sprouts awesome. Fun place regardless of your age. 1 downside wine and beer pours were very small for the price 9.00 for half a normal wine pour.
Favorite lunch in Charleston! Great oysters ! Fried chicken the best! Fried oyster sandwich is great. Hush puppies are delicious! Crab dip was awesome! Fun atmosphere and great service!
Everything is excellent. Grilled oysters were delic. As were the lettuce wraps . One of the waiters has the most soothing voice.
Grilled oysters , fried chicken sandwich , scalloped potatoes . I didn’t love the sweet pickles on the chicken sandwich , would have prepared dill pickles , but still yum!
Everything is good here! Oysters , shrimp peel, clam wraps , fried chicken , scalloped potatoes , hush puppies , whole snapper
The best hush puppies ever. Fried chicken sandwich and Brussels incredible. Love this place.
At Leon’s, it’s all about the fried chicken : after bathing in buttermilk and hot sauce overnight, wings and drumsticks are spiced up with Old Bay , cayenne, and paprika .
Oysters & hush puppies were good. Lovely interior space. Wasn’t a big fan of the fried chicken sandwich .
Put their oysters in your mouth, GSBs especially. The fried chicken was also surprisingly moist and flavorful. Will be back
Unique menu with "cheap beer " and "expensive champagne " .. love it! The fried chicken and Brussel Sprouts had a kick to them. Great meal!
It was perfect. Casual charm at its best. The food was classic and expertly prepared. Can't go wrong!
Amazing char grilled oysters and fried chicken !
Grilled oysters , house oysters , Brussels sprouts , and Bloody Mary were all very good!

Perfect meal here: grilled oyster starter, fried half-chicken entree, cucumber salad side.
Whole fried chicken , baked oysters , and anything in a lettuce wrap . Try all the sides.
Grilled oysters and Brussels sprouts are a must. Fried chicken pretty solid.
Outstanding food. Be prepared to wait a little for the chicken , they cook it to order, but it's worth it.
Fresh oyster choice trumps fried chicken . Fried oyster sandwich a good middle ground!
Amazing seafood and non fish options. End your meal with soft serve ice cream !
Top: order beers and oysters and eat them on the Back patio while you wait for your table
Oysters any way you can get them, fish , clam lettuce wraps ...and a wonderful atmosphere.
The Avocado Toast is so yummy! We had it as an appetizer .
Come for the food, for sure, but also come for an amazing grower champagne list!
Frozen G&T, oysters . Yum. Plenty of gluten free options if you stay away from fried.
Fried brussels sprouts to start. The fried oyster sandwich was great too.
Yeah, it's an oyster shop, but the Big Ass Chicken Dinner is some of the best fried chicken around.
Cucumber salad is delicious. Treat yourself to some soft serve with sprinkles !
