The Sweet Potato Bisque and the She Crab Soup were both excellent. Rich and creamy. Our server Russell was such a nice, polite young man with a great sense of humor.

We came for lunch and arrived just before they were opening. The hostess there wasn't very friendly and we waited on the sofas near the front of the restaurant. Once we were seated our server was nice but not very knowledgeable. From what I can see of the other reviews it looks like this place is perhaps better for dinner but our lunch items weren't as great as other nearby restaurants such as Cru Cafe. The burger was a little overcooked and pretty plain. The hush puppies seemed over-fried. The best dish was the stuffed crab but it wouldn't have been nicer with a more acidic sauce to cut the richness of the fried crab.

So decided to add a stop for lunch during our day in Charleston for our anniversary. What an amazing choice it ended up being! Everything we tried was out of this world. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu. The drinks were all interesting too! Our waitress, Sylvie was amazing and took great care of us. Can't wait for the next visit!

The Swamp Fox Restaurant is a hidden gem in Charleston, South Carolina. It's been voted the best place to start your day in Charleston by Southern Living Magazine, and for good reason. The food is incredible, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is charming. I recently had the opportunity to try the Swamp Fox's famous award-winning shrimp and grits, and I was blown away. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, the grits were creamy and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and delicious. The dish has won numerous awards, including being named the best shrimp and grits in South Carolina by the Charleston City Paper. I also had the opportunity to try the Firefly Distillery signature drink, which is a delicious cocktail made with Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka, muddled blueberries, and lemon juice. Not only was the drink delicious, but it also came with a $25 discount to "The Spa of Charleston". I would highly recommend the Swamp Fox Restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience in Charleston. The food is amazing, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is perfect. I can't wait to go back! Here are some of the things I loved about the Swamp Fox Restaurant: The food is incredible. I've had the award-winning shrimp and grits, the fried chicken, and the Lowcountry boil, and everything has been delicious. The service is top-notch. The staff is friendly and attentive, and they really know their stuff. The atmosphere is charming. The restaurant is located in the historic Francis Marion Hotel, and it has a warm and inviting atmosphere. The Firefly Distillery signature drink is delicious, and it comes with a $25 discount to "The Spa of Charleston". Overall, I had a wonderful experience at the Swamp Fox Restaurant. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience in Charleston.

Great Coffee at the Swamp Fox! We had the Frech Toast and the Hearty Breakfast and it was huge and came out quickly. Christina was such a happy, friendly, and attentive waitress. Thanks for a fancy breakfast!

Well. This was one of my best experiences ever. The food is made for gods and by gods. We enjoyed every bite and every minute of our dinner. It was our very special day and the place and the staff made it one of a kind. Our waitress was top level professional and top level nice. The hostess was very hospitable and kind. My visit was June 19th 8 pm. Thank you! Recommend 100%. No, 300%.

A classy atmosphere but they had no problems seating my wife and I in shorts and tie dye. The asparagus and she crab soup were phenomenal. The fried green tomatoes and pimento burger were ok, but too sweet for my taste (they put jelly on both). The ankle breaker (drink) was really good! The second was even better. I had the good sense not to try a third 😁
