Out of a 5 day trip to Charleston, this place was our saving grace. The food, service, drinks, and ambiance were all top notch! We stopped in for an early dinner, sat at the bar, and had some amazing oysters! The crab dip with curry was amazing, and the drinks were out of this world!

The next day...

Ate there Friday evening for dinner. The server was awesome! He had so many recommendations that s we literally said surprise us . He brought out a lobster roll, tuna burger, roasted oysters and a swordfish sandwich. All of it was absolutely delicious. I have lived here 25 years and could not belie...

Hands down, my favorite restaurant in Charleston. The lobster roll is incredible...as is pretty much anything else on the menu. Super fresh, clean oysters and raw bar, daily selections in addition to what's on the menu, excellent beer and wine options, and the staff are friendly and knowledgable. It...

My husband and myself was in town working. I'm a private car dealer and we picked up a car that we had to do a little work on. Now with that being said we was not dressed up. We walked up to the host and he just stared at us, never said a word. I finally ask if they was open since I seen people insi...

This place was recommended to us by a friend and we're so glad we went here. The restaurant is small, but it is delicious. We sat outside even though it was sprinkling a little bit and we still enjoyed every single bite. Get the lobster roll. It's to die for!

Wow! What amazing food!! This place came highly referred to us. We got there at 12:45 on a Thursday afternoon and there was already an hour wait. Now I know why.

After a slight mixup by the hostess, which he later apologized for, we were seated after just shy of 2 hours. Let me just say, it was w...

My husband and I came from out of town, and we wanted fresh seafood. 167 Raw reviews were amazing. Unfortunately, we never got to try it because we were given a bogus wait time. A large party was just seated, and there was only 1 couple waiting in front of us. No one else. We were told our wait time...

All staff were very professional, attentive, and pleasant. Ordered an ale, Bomba potatoes, and a fish taco. The pota...

Fresh seafood presented well. We had the crab soup, oysters, lobster roll, tuna burger, fish taco and pork taco. Everything was great. Lobster roll is a must have and the pork taco was the surprise of the evening. The chef said it best, the pork taco is the dark horse of the menu.

Granted, my review comes with a bit of bias because I have traveled throughout the United States and have tried the some of the best tacos in every place.

In terms of food the ceviche was decent, but the tacos were lacking in flavor. You know you re having good tacos when you don t have to order ...

So delicious! They offer catch of the day as well as stable menu items. I ordered 2 specials (Chilled corn bisque w/ crab & 1/2 lb stone crab claws) and 1 stable item (lobster roll). They are all so fresh and tasty! Definitely would recommend it.

The food is good and the people are friendly. The drawbacks are the size of the place and the wait. We were seated for 2 people after almost an hour but I watched parties larger than that still waiting after we had eaten and were leaving. We ll be back, definitely, but not with a large party.

We walked by this place in the morning and saw 5-6 people waiting by the door at 10:40 am, so later in the day when looking for a spot for lunch we decided to give it a try. It was 1:00 or so on a Friday afternoon and our wait was about 35 min, which wasn't bad at all, especially because we were ab...

Great small restaurant with unique beers and food as well. Definitely go for the scallop po boy, it was unique and the combination of juicy scallops and fried texas-toast-like bread mad the perfect sandwich. They had about 8 different oysters available and it was fun to sit at the bar and watch them...

Had a great meal at this tiny but very high quality restaurant. Would give it five stars if we weren't hurried up and reminded that there was a line of people waiting to get in. Now, we we're ordering raw bar and wine by the bottle. Our check for the two of us ended up coming to $174. Exactly what w...

GO TO 167 RAW. We took a GF trip to Charleston for the weekend. This "first come first serve" is WELL worth the wait!!! We had 3 dozen oysters. Try the Capitals and the Onset. The ceviche. Yes, please. We've had ceviche all over Central America and this is just as good. The lobster roll is to die f...

Food is great, but not worth the price and wait times in my opinion. Wait times are usually 1 hour or longer, the location isn't ideal, and parking is difficult. Overall I had a pleasant experience, but I think you can easily get better food for cheaper at many restaurants in Charleston.

The Big Boy, swordfish taco, pork taco and shrimp taco - all shared between friends. It blew our minds how tasty each bite was. I've been traveling to Charleston for 10 years now and think this restaurant beats any of the big name restaurant in town! A must not miss!

This was an amazing meal. I would absolutely go back in a heartbeat. The food was incredible (see ceviche and fish sandwich). The staff was friendly, outgoing and prompt. We had to wait a little before we were sat but it was so worth it and not inconvenient at all. Highly highly recommend it

If you want some good shellfish and the best damn tuna poke in town then this is your place. There is a reason people are lined up out the door every night.

Tonight, there was no way to get a table with the wait list being 70+ deep. The host (very handsome, listen up ladies) recognized me from ...

Incredible place for oysters and other seafood (as long as you don't mind a very intimate setting). What it lacks in physical space, it more than makes up for in charm and service.

Highly recommend this place if you're traveling with a small party (5 or less).

This little spot serves up a great selections oysters, great ceviche, and one of the best lobster rolls I've tried! Seating is extremely limited so expect to wait, but if you have the time you won't be disappointed. Excellent service and cozy yet vibrant atmosphere.

Best Raw Bar in Charleston Area.

Small place, huge flavor. There's not much I cannot recommend on this menu, so I'll walk through my last amazing experience. The white sweet potato, celery root, leek, and trout roe soup was not your run-of-the-mill potato soup - it packed a lot of flavor in a small package. This was followed by the...

Worth the wait to eat here! Although if you want to be seated first make sure to arrive as early as possible since the line starts to form ~an hour before they open. I had the swordfish taco (special of the day) and the shrimp taco. I'd recommend these over any other taco place around! My friends ha...

Despite of no reservation policy and lots of people standing outside and waiting to get in (which is kind of stressful), I loved this location. Once inside there is not stress at all, attentive waiters and most importantly very delicious food. Excellent.
