📍Charleston, South Carolina is known for its food, and after visiting, it’s easy to see why.
Check out the post for our full reviews, but here are a few additional notes:
The service at was incredible. The owner personally visits each table to introduce himself, and they’re basically giving out free food throughout the meal. One of those items was their famous hushpuppies, which were honestly one of the best things we ate there (pictured with the fish platter).
She-crab soup is a Charleston staple, so we had to give it a try. It’s clearly a local favorite, but we’re just not big crab people, so it wasn’t our favorite dish.
The cake from was good, just not quite our style. If you’re planning a trip to Charleston, I’d recommend trying the Ultimate Coconut Cake from the Peninsula Grill instead. It’s one of Charleston’s most famous desserts, and looking back, that’s the one we wish we had ordered.
Overall, Charleston absolutely lived up to its reputation as a foodie destination. From the fresh seafood to the Southern hospitality, it’s a city we’d happily return to—and one we’d recommend visiting with an appetite.
