    Our table was wobbly and had to be fixed using paper and our bench cushion had a low dip on one end making it too low to sit at the table. Asked for different table from hostess but didn't get one.

    We enjoyed our first dinner on the 17th so much, decided to return for our ‘last night’ -right next to our hotel, a great location! Our server, Alex, was terrific! Calamari, fish tacos, mussels all delish…Pinot Gri and Cali Chardonnay tasty parings - we shall return! (But, perhaps NOT on an early eve before ‘showtime’ next door at the theatre😉)

    Excellent food and service. Will certainly return here again. Menu is very seafood heavy so be aware if you are not a seafood fan.

    Delicious food, service was awesome, our only challenge was the hostess didn’t text us when they said they were going to or tap us on the shoulder we were sitting close by at the bar, went over to check on our table and it had been ready, would highly recommend

    Advertisement says best seafood in Charleston, I tend to disagree. So very average, especially with all the other great restaurants in town.

    I had dinner here to finish out the work week. We started with happy hour drinks and appetizers at the bar. The manchego-baked oysters were excellent—three per plate. For dinner, I had the Lowcountry-style swordfish, which was super delicious. It is grilled and dusted with Old Bay and comes with a potato and andouille hash and sweet corn purée. There are many great restaurants in Charleston, and this is one near the top of the list.
