Great value, as they provide you with a huge selection of fried foods to choose from. More of a takeout place but you can eat at the outdoor benches. Onion rings, shrimp, fried clams and the flounder was solid.

First time eating here and it is really good! It’s impossible to find fried clam strips around here. They are a staple up north but difficult to find here so I was happy to find a place that had them! The clam strips were nice and crunchy, not soggy at all. The sides were good too. I got Mac and cheese and collards and both were great. Definitely would recommend. My only suggestion would be if they would make their own cocktail sauce. Fresh tastes so much better!

Blown away. At here about 3 weeks ago, and must say this is the best fried shrimp and hush puppies I’ve had… maybe ever. Mac and cheese was great. Unassuming place with seafood market. Can’t wait to go back.

Ate here on a whim Friday night bc I prefer hole in the wall type places. Got the flounder and fries to go. Amazing. So amazing that I came back today for lunch and got the red snapper and fries. So so good. Yes it's not fancy and it's very much a hole in the wall, but that's how you know it's good. This will be my go-to place when around Charleston now! Cannot recommend this place enough. If you're expecting something fancy and not fried, then go to Charleston there's more for you there.

Amazing food, the snow crab and shrimp boil is excellent, and Joe Cheddar who is chef was very helpful and helps us do a mild sauce. Thank you for everything Joe! You rock sir!
First thing: this is NOT a sit down restaurant. At all. They have a few picnic tables outside, that's it. If you want fancy, this isn't it. We went prepared based on other reviews here and it's worth it. This place is for to-go orders.-We brought our own crab leg crackers. They do not give you any because it's to-go.-We brought our own wet wipes to help clean up after, you get napkins, but anyone who has had crab legs should know that no paper napkin is enough.-We called a local brewery, "Low Tide Brewing" and asked if we could bring outside food. They said it was fine so we took our food there, got some amazing drinks and ate our massive amount of crabs for 2 hours.We got a garlic butter snow crab legs boil and a Cajun butter blue crab boil. While both butter options are great, I would recommend the Cajun butter over the garlic as it's the perfect level of some spicy without being too much. This was my first time having blue crab and it was an interesting experience lol.The amount of food you get on these boils is crazy. After 2 hours we still had food left and ended up not being able to finish all the potatoes. While the prices look the same as the touristy spots it's easily twice the amount of food and tastes so much better. I highly recommend planning out your trip to include this spot, especially if you co.ebouy to a a Johns Island to see the Angel Tree.

I ordered the seafood platter. I was craving crab legs and shrimp. This order covered the bill. I enjoyed my meal. The crab and shrimp where cooked well. I didn't like the butter sauce as much but had enough food to be safe for the next day. The person who answered the phone for my order was very nice and they work with delivery services to offer delivery. I look forward to trying more.
