About this business

If you want to try some of the best seafood in Charleston then head to this humble joint on Folly Beach. It should be on your plan if you are in and around the area. The place was completely gutted in 2006 and was rebuilt again. The restaurant is famous for its wonderful oysters, seafood platter and shrimps. It takes pride in using the freshest ingredients and the catch of the day is always worth trying out. You can also book private parties at this venue.

Ordered fried shrimp and oysters platter. Only got 4 small oysters and 7 small shrimp. Do not go in June , unpleasantly very hot. Plan on waiting for a table and sweating the entire time you are eating. Not worth the money. Slaw tasted like it was just cabbage with pepper with a bitterness. Hush puppies were very dry with no flavor and the French fries were cold and no seasoning.

Not worth the hype. Long line and you hope you can find a table when your food is ready.

Omg! The food was delicious!! Shrimp lightly battered! Sat at the bar where we had a drink and ordered our meal! Long line to order, but worth the drive and the wait!
