We had Zach as our waiter on the evening of 7/22 and he was very delightful and friendly. The food had tons of flavor and the pimento cheese/peach jalapeño jam was amazing. Also splurged some and ordered the croissant bread pudding and that was delicious. We enjoyed the sunset view as well.

One of the nicest dinner experiences we’ve ever had around the globe! This place has it all! Wonderful food, beautiful view and friendly service. Highly recommend the she-crab soup and seafood pasta. We were a party of 7 and everyone truly enjoyed the food! What a great restaurant!

What an absolute GEM of a place. This was by our hotel and we stopped in our very last night for an early dinner. We had asked the locals about it all week and they kind of scoffed and called it a “glorified TGIF”.

So fun, loved the service the waitress so super friendly and fast. The place is very busy so we took a seat outside where we didn’t have to wait for inside dining. Food was fantastic and lived the friend Cauliflower and soup I ordered. My husband got the BBQ nachos and were delicious as well. Highly recommend

Service was good, friendly but not prompt enough. The Croissants and Spinach Dip n Chips was loaded and very good. The Charleston Seafood Pasta sauce needed to be more creamy, a bit too watery. Great flavor, otherwise. The Prime Rib was good.

Stopped off in Charleston on our travels this summer. This is a great restaurant. Great service. Super views. Local beers. Very good food. (Wish we could have tried more of it, but we really enjoyed everything we had. Highly recommend the she crab soup.) But it gets quite busy. We went a little early and had no trouble getting in, but you might want to make reservations if you want to go at peak times.

I was recommended this place by a local, i was in town for the weekend and was looking for a good brunch spot. Well to my surprise i was recommended a river front restaurant with the most beautiful view. There were boats passing by their is a cool bridge in the distance, and a scenic view of the city. The restaurant had indoor dining, but i wanted the full experience of Sunday brunch in a costal city so i dined outdoor. I had the salmon and potatoes. Outstanding! Kudos to the chef the salmon was seasoned and cooked to perfection. As for the potatoes there was so much texture and flavor in every bite. What a great experience! When I’m in town definitely a place i am willingly to stop by again! Would i recommend? Heck yeah!

Awesome place! We walked here after our boat ride and the environment was great. You had the option to order through a QR code but a server would stop by your table as well. Every plate looked great.

THE BEST RESTAURANT IN CHARLESTON!!! We went here on our last night of the trip, but wish we had eaten here sooner!! Ashley was our server, and she was the best and most attentive waitress I’ve ever experienced. Not only was the service top knotch, but the food/drink prices really can’t be beat. AND THAT VIEW!! The kids also voted this as their favorite restaurant.

I’m sorry but the great view doesn’t mean you should gouge the price this bad. $30+ for a “crabby patty” is makes me feel like this place is indeed ran by Mr. Krabs. Left after just ordering drinks and reviewing the menu and discussing it with the waitress, who recommended Chick-fil-A over their own chicken sandwich. By the way the soda was flat and the cost of 1 soda and one sweet tea was $6.66.
