Fisherman's Grotto

Good food but extremely long wait time, 20 mins to get menues and another 10 to finally place order, 45-60 minutes to get food. The service needs to be quicker in all aspects. The building needs some upgrading and possible a remodel. The parking lot needs to be paved all the way. Part of the parking lot is gravel.

Best crab cakes I’ve ever had! My husband and I always joke that when you see a restaurant full of older people, you know it’s going to be good, and that was the case here. He had the clam chowder bowl and it was delicious. Service was amazing, friendly and fast even though it seemed that the full restaurant was only being run by three people. Would visit again!

They visited our local Highland Games at Henry’s Winery and served amazing fish, shrimp & oysters! We ordered the fish and chips! They were very generous with their fish and chip basket portions! The fish tasted so fresh and the overall meal was filling yet light. Thank you guys for a great, fresh meal. We will definitely be visiting when we are in Charleston next!

We are from Nevada, an I love trying places on the coast for halibut, fried, and clam chowder. We first stopped in last week. The chowder is good, but nothing extraordinary. The fried halibut, on the other hand, was probably the best I had ever had. And I'm old and have tried lots of places. The batter is almost like a thick tempura, and the chef cooked it to perfection. So good in fact, we went there the next day to make sure it wasn't a fluke. Nope. Next day was just as perfect. Fast forward to today. We went again. Different cook. Not chef quality. Halibut overcooked with a heavier batter. So so so, disappointed. I highly recommend this place and just hope you get the chef and not the cook.

One of our favorite local restaurants when visiting Charleston! You know it’s good when the locals keep coming back. ;) The fish is always fresh, the fresh squeezed lemonade is great, and the clam chowder is pretty good as well. The deep fried caramel apple pie was SOOO FLIPPING GOOD! We ordered dessert first to make sure we had room for it- instead of waiting until we were too full at the end.
