    The ambiance was fabulous, overlooking the marsh and a marina, so our family really enjoyed the iconic South Carolina landscape. The drink menu was very nice and well priced although I would suggest some non-alcoholic cocktails options that do not include a lot of fruit. But we managed through it.🙂 Our food was delicious and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. I'm from South Carolina and got the Low Country Boil, which was NOT prepared as I was accustomed. So although the server prepared me that the dish would be spicy, I still expected it to be more resemblance to the beer broth version to which I'm accused. I believe the menu item should be renamed, as Low Country Boil is a bit of a misnomer. But all in all, we really liked it and will definitely go back!

    We were seated promptly and our server soon appeared for our beverage order. We gave our order which arrived correctly and timely. Our server checked in afterwards to be sure that we were satisfied with our meals.
