Best Historic Restaurants in Folly Beach

We loved Church and Union - the venue was beautiful and our server Jonah certainly added to the positive experience sharing the background of the building and the artwork on the ceilings and walls. And, our food came quickly and was very tasty. So glad we chose this place for Sunday Brunch!

My husband and I came for my birthday. I truly cannot remember a time in recent years where a restaurant honestly went out if the way to make me feel so special. The food was the perfect compliment to such thoughtful service. We cannot wait to return!

We absolutely love dinning at the Oak Steakhouse! The staff are very friendly and attentive from setting us at a fabulous table for our date night. Drinks came quickly and they make a perfect French Martini! The oysters were great. We also ordered yummy cornbread with a taste of jalapeño. I ordered the 8 oz filet mignon with whipped potatoes and both were outstanding. We definitely will dine again! Thank-you!

Excellent service. Had multiple servers attend to us. Very helpful in explaining the entrees in detail and helping us decide. Our meals were excellent, one pasta and one scallops. Very interesting building with lots of character. We will be back.

Let me start by saying Mike is an incredible host, server, chef, and historian. This was a one of a kind experience and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique culinary experience in Charleston. While it is not a conventional restaurant, Mike takes you on a culinary journey of 18th and 19th century low country cuisine, keeping things as authentic as possible while still appealing to our modern palates. Each dish was carefully crafted and thoughtfully prepared. The table was full of strangers, but we all got to chat and listen to Mike’s wonderful presentation of Charleston history to go along with each dish. Our specific meal was centered around Legacy families of Charleston, so we enjoyed dishes each family would have also enjoyed. Mike deserves all of the attention and reservations he can handle. As he says, he’s one of Charleston’s best kept secrets, and I believe that to be true because I had a fantastic experience.
