Island Breeze

This is one of the best experiences, I’ve had in a restaurant in a very long time. The environment is comfortable and relaxing. The food is cooked with passion. We tried every food item of the menu and each was cooked to perfection. I found my favorite restaurant and “ I from downtown and down cut“😉

Island Breeze is one of my most favorite places, the inviting & positive atmosphere is a breath of fresh air, not to mention the excellent food. Norma & Norm welcome everybody with their friendly hospitality and great service. I have worked with them planning special events and will continue. I highly recommend Island Breeze, if you go, you will surely go back.

Norma the owner was a perfect hostess. I ordered the fried flounder/shrimp/oyster trio and coleslaw. The trio was served warm skewered, but the breading was too much for me. The domestic beer was only $3 and the staff made up for the food. I should have made a different choice. Overall a unique view of a beached boat, the estuary, and a trio of friends trying to get a small business of the ground. I applaud your efforts. Hours are limited so check before you go. I met a man there who said he is an HBO producer working to get Island Breeze on a production. Filming was going on near Folly Beach, so who knows. Good Luck Norma!!

The rum punch is way too good...I would recommend going ahead and getting the larger one because you will end up ordering more anyway. We were driving back to Charleston from Folly Beach and saw the sign on the road and decided to stop in for one drink ...and ended up staying all afternoon. The owner is so genuinely friendly. The front screen porch has beautiful views. It is perfect for spending a day drinking rum punch and having great conversation with some of the most interesting people and learning about the history of the area. We will definitely check back in there if/when we are back in the Charleston area.
