“We were lucky enough to get a recommendation by the Gullah culture story teller at Boone Hall Plantation.Parking is limited to wherever you can find a spot on the street. They have a little patio out front for extra seating. The restaurant is simple - wooden booths/chairs, nothing fancy. Really cool pics and artwork on the walls, though!Our waitress, Gabe, was delightful, cheery and thoughtful. She was as wonderfully entertaining as she was efficient! All six of us squished into a booth and ordered sweet teas, Arnold Palmers and Obamas (pink lemonade and sweet tea).We ordered the chicken livers and gizzards appetizers, the crab rice, pork chops, BBQ ribs, collard greens, Mac and cheese, red rice, cornbread and okra soup - (twisted gumbo). Y'all. It was the best damn food I've had in a month. (Some of my party didn't like the sweet cornbread. They were simply misguided in their wrong opinions.)Idk if it's because the food on the carnival cruise was so horrid, or because excellent real food (not cooked by my mama) is so hard to find in the wild, but I swear I fell in love with everyone in that restaurant.After paying my tab and tipping graciously, I waited outside for the rest of my party. I saw a beautiful lady with spectacular eyelashes by the side door. I sneaked over and asked her if she was the cook. Oh happy day, she was! I hugged her, and thanked her profusely, overjoyed to meet her. She is a national treasure and must be protected at all costs!Never have we had such a lovely dining experience - excellent food, exceptional service and wonderful staff. We felt like family!This place alone is worth the trip to Charleston!“
“We walked into the restaurant hungry and irritable, but the welcoming staff and delicious food put us at ease almost immediately. Thank you, for a delicious lunch we will definitely be back.Wheelchair accessibility: This location is pretty wheelchair accessible my son was able to maneuver about in his manual chair and the seating is open and accessible as well.“
“This unassuming local favorite has a homey country diner atmosphere, delivered in a meat and three format (an entree plus two sides and a rice dish).I can unequivocally recommend their crab balls - they were delicious! On Saturdays they have a fried seafood platter that is full stop amazing, you get a ton of great food (crab balls, scallops, fish, oysters, shrimp) that is relatively inexpensive!“
“Dave’s take out may be a small and simple restaurant but the customer service and food is AMAZING! The food was truly like a home cooked meal and Dave was the nicest person we encountered our whole trip. The scallops were mouth watering. We couldn’t get enough. If you’re in town can’t suggest this place enough!“
“AMAZING! A must-visit for authentic soul food if you're in Charleston. We had the ribs, fried chicken, mac and cheese, and collard greens. Every single thing we had was sublime - and you can't beat the prices. There are a few tables to eat there but it seems that most of the business is takeaway.“
“When you drive up you're a bit apprehensive but once you walk in the door your whole world changes the food is awesome cooked to perfection the chef is at the top of his game and the service a smile every time I'm in Charleston I'll make it a point to be there“
