Brunch menu is excellent. Bistro Benedict (crab cake , pork belly , poached egg , hollandaise on a buttermilk biscuit ) is divine. Make a res on OpenTable.

Briana Bailey

The crab cakes with collard greens were our favorite, but the chicken and waffles were good too. I liked the bacon pieces in the waffle ! Drinks were just OK.

Matt Waldrep

No joke, the best meal I've ever eaten. Highly recommend chicken and waffles . Wonderful crab and shrimp stuffed flounder , the best piece of fish I've ever eaten. Seriously worth your time and money.

Sara West

Delicious! The menu may seem a bit limiting when looking, but it's so amazing you won't regret it. Get the crab dip appetizer for sure; it's a small portion but your tongue will beat your brains out.

I had Frogmore Stew and it was delicious! I strongly recommend this restaurant ! Everything on the menu sounded amazing! It was difficult to decide what to eat!

Bruce Tyndall

Everything is good here. If you're downtown and especially if you're visiting our fair city , please eat here. You will love it and get an authentic taste of Charleston!

The she crab soup was very good as was my soft shell crab sandwich . Unfortunately the service was less than desirable and therefore I will probably not return.
