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.

The hush puppies and crab cakes were great, but the rest of the food and atmosphere was sub-par.
