I would wait hours, in inclement weather or searing heat to eat at Poe's. The food is heaven in your mouth, the atmosphere is fun, inviting and alluring. I don't get to Charleston often, but when I do...you'll find me there! 

Business response:

Awesome Kimberly, this made our day! Thank you for the kind words. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Food is amazing!! Both my husband's and my burgers were cooked to perfection, and the fries can be their own food group!!! My 11 yr old absolutely loved his chicken sandwich. And the service was equally amazing, and very friendly. Will definitely be back again! If you haven't been, you're missing out! 

Business response:

Thank you Kathy! We're so glad you and your family loved your first visit. Looking forward to having you back!

The food was delicious. However I don't believe we'll be going back anytime soon. Both servers we spoke with seemed to hate their jobs. The service was ridiculously slow when they weren't busy at all 

Business response:

This feedback is disheartening, mind sending more details in a private message? Specifically details on your service and what made you think the servers hate their jobs? We have a solid and amazing staff and many have been with us over 5 years.
