Hyman's Seafood

Love happy hour here. $7 for a dozen oysters at the bar from 2:30-5:30. $2 dom beer and $3 well drinks . Can't be beat!! We tried lots of places, this is one of the best! !

Charlestonians and locals leave this dining establishment for the tourists . We hope you enjoy it!

Combo platter of true sea food ! So much food!!! Ate half of that..comes with one side - for ex. rice , potato etc. and soup or salad . I've tried crab She soup - yummy!

The Salmon was small and the calamari I was disappointed in. Left a really bad after taste in my mouth. First time there & not in hurry to go back. They do have the 1st hush puppies I have ever liked.

Locals/natives of Charleston don’t eat here. This is 100% a tourist/out of town visitor’s destination...and they can have it! ????

Absolutely love the winter time all you can eat Crab Legs ! Great place for fried seafood too. I'm a local and love it! Just because a place is busy is no reason to label them a tourist trap.

We were made to feel very welcome. A mixup with our order was promptly fixed without fuss. The shrimp and grits was very good. The Amberjack was alright. The sides were flat and disappointing.

Overhyped. I'm not sure why it's rated so well , salad was average and crabcakes were good but nuthin to rave home about, hushpuppies good but not my thing. Friendly place, but again, not a must visit.

Yuck! Very much overrated tourist trap. Locals don’t eat here. There are much better options for seafood in this city and Hyman’s is not one of them!

Large portions of good seafood served by great, hospitable folks. Here's one of those situations where the service as often even better than the food. Worth the money. Best with friends or family

Wadamalaw Delight, Carolina Delight great appetizers ! You won't be disappointed if you like grits and cheese . Boom Boom Shrimp delicious. Fried and stuffed flounder worth it.

Called today for reservations was told sis not need them. Traveled across town on bus to be told one hour wait. Would not have time to have dinner . Will never try to have dinner here again!!!

As of July 1, 2013: NO more Happy Hour !! Their loss of my business :-p

Great restaurant and super friendly staff throughout shop and restaurant ! Must get the hush puppies , they are the best on the planet and fried green tomatoes are to die for as well :)

Great food, great service! I try to go there every time we make it down to Charleston. Talked with the owner while we were there. I recommend Hyman's to everyone who visits Charleston.

Fried Green Tomatoes are awesome! Get the Two Combo it's worth the money you get a ton of good and can have it prepared the way you like it!

The seafood may be ok, but it is over rated. The Aaron deli items need to be avoided. These are not the quality of a good deli experience.

The staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is mouthwatering. Try everything but don't leave without a hush puppy . Then check out the general store and get some ice cream .

Very, very touristy .... Any local would tell u to stay away. While the hush puppies were some of the best I've ever had.... The rest of the menu was not up to par. I won't be going back.

Always stop here when we come to Charleston. The food and service is top notch. My absolute favorite are the hush puppies . BEST EVER!

The shrimp and grits is delicious , portions are large . Staff is very attentive and helpful . Great place to have a good comfort meal

Omg the she-crab soup is delicious and the hush puppies are the best I’ve ever had!!

I have been to many restaurants in Charleston and this will be my one and only visit to Hymans. The original Charleston crab house is so much better.

It’s a tourist trap. Locals don’t eat here and think it’s hysterical that tourists are lined up to get in! ????

Popped in for a quick half-dozen oysters . No mignonette, but they did have cocktail sauce . Tasty and quick. Nice bar staff ; friendly and smiling.

Call and ask how long the wait is. They'll tell you it's a half an hour. Get there and put your name in and they'll tell you it's an hour. Wait an hour and they'll tell you it's another half an hour.

Everything is good here. You can't go wrong with anything. I really enjoyed the Father Platter. A good mix of items.

Instead of waiting on the sidewalk for your table at Hyman's, grab a glass of wine and sip it on the sofa at the friendly Gaslight Wine and Art Gallery next door! Great folks.

We waited for 25 minutes but the service was great. AMAZING crab dip & complementary calamari if you show your hotel room key! The Cajun Mayo is also delish. Anything with shrimp is recommended!

The pimento dip was really good and the oysters on happy hour perfectly ok

The food was unbelievably good. I had the shrimp and grits Carolina. I'd have it again. Great food, great staff .

If you like flounder , daaaaang it fills the plate; finish one side flip and eat the other half cooked to perfection.

Exemplary service ! The owner sent out complimentary apps. Carolina Delight , crab cakes , Caribbean jerk salmon , fried green tomatoes and a pint of Palmetto Amber... all incredible!

The shrimp Po Boy is the best shrimp dish in Charleston, which is why it’s on our list of The Tastes That Make the City : Charleston. Read more

I liked the taste of shrimp and salmon . Also, they are giving appetizers free. Good price, not expensive .

Buffalo shrimp and buffalo oysters are great. Crab legs not so good but fried oysters and broiled scallops good. No beer on tap !

Omg! Coldest bottled beer EVER! Happy hour (food and drink) specials EVERY DAY! This may be my new fave spot in Downtown Charleston!

Everything was great. Hush puppies , crab and shrimp dip , captains platter, grouper , crab cakes

Beware, this place is a tourist trap. Awesome service but the food is sub par.

Combo platters are the way to go: Cajun Flounder , Mussels , BBQ Shrimp & a sweet potato (comes w/hush puppies too) = $20!!

The Salmon Medley is pretty good! The butter sauce is too.

Simply some of the best food I've ever eaten! Wonderful staff want customers to be happy, any problems and they'll fix it fast. Great atmosphere.

Strong Bloody Mary game + loved the lobster bisque .

The make your own combo was awesome

Never a bad time, food is always amazing and service is very friendly

This is the best seafood you are going to get in Charleston and the restaurant has a nice environment. Where your sicker for a chance to win a free meal!!

Seafood , shrimp , catch of the day fish

Awesome hush puppies ! I normally don't like crab cakes but these were amazing!

Mr Eli & Mr V are extremely nice not to mention the amazing staff and food! It's a must!!!

Boom boom shrimp all day long biatttchhh ????
