Sweetest most courteous staff ever♥️ best hushpuppies anywhere in the Charleston area! Cannot wait to buy fresh seafood from them. All the downtown restaurants need to make note of what real Charleston food and service should be like.

I came here a week ago for steamed crabs (call before you go to check availability) and they were PHENOMENAL! Bet steamed crabs I’ve ever had and they were juicy, flavorful, and huge!! I will definitely be going back weekly while I’m here in Charleston!
