So Good!!!!! This is one of my favorite places. I really cannot emphasize how amazing the food is. This is a local's favorite nothing much to look at, just good vibes here. No reservations so it may be a wait as the place is tiny. Our favorites are the Ceviche, Tuna Burger, and Pork Taco, though everything is delicious!!

FIG is AMAZING!!!!! I mean Wow, a true culinary masterpiece. I really had no idea food could be this good. This is a farm to table very creative, gourmet restaurant, but don't let the exotic ingredients scare you, it is a meal you will talk about after and you will not be disappointed - Foodie heaven! Make reservations ASAP exactly one month in advance is what I recommend as that is as far as they go out otherwise you will get a late seating if at all.

The Ordinary is an amazing oyster/fresh seafood farm to table restaurant. It is Tapas style so you will likely order several small dishes to share or a large Seafood Tower if you are an Oyster fan. You do need to reserve 1 month or so in advance for best reservation times and if you love oysters, this place is not to be missed.

This is a definite special occasion date night sort of place. It is on the high end ie, expensive side but well worth it. There is live music every night and at Saturday and Sunday Brunch - and to be more budget friendly you can opt for brunch. And a word to the wise, save room for dessert!

Amen Street is one of our easy to get into, go to spots. It is Seafood and Oysters and a sister restaurant to Hank's which is a little harder to get into. WE go here when we aren't starving - smaller portions but they are tasty. We love the baked oysters, fried green tomatoes, and fish tacos. Really everything is good. You can make same day reservations here and it has that old Charleston feel inside which is very cozy.

If you go to Mt Pleasant, this is a great place for breakfast/lunch. Really good Chicken & Waffles, fried green tomato and pimento cheese BLT, and Bloody Mary's- how wrong is that?? Sunday brunch includes live music in the back by the bar and it gets really crowded so grab a carafe of Mimosa with a straw and the time will fly by!

Ok, so this restaurant is on John's island so it isn't walkable. But dang is it ever some delicious Italian food! We are in Charleston all the time so we tend to branch out so if you want to do the same, try this place. The Calamari and Chicken Parm are the best ever!! You will need reservations but only a few days to a week in advance as opposed to some of the down town spots.

A really great sight to see. There is also a submarine we have yet to see and a ghost tour in the evening which was fun also! This is on Mount Pleasant. There is a great place for lunch too - ugly but great that I will include in restaurants.

Arts & Culture

Great shows are often playing and the playhouse is really historic and great to experience. Really no bad seat in the house so no to worry about last minute ticket purchases.

If you will be staying in to cook, groceries are a short walk away though you may want to opt for Uber back.
