We ate here on Friday night. We were looking for a more casual place for some seafood. It was definatley more casual, but still pricey. Food was ok, there were large portions. Service was ok. This is not fine dining, so the waiter did a good job, but nothing above and beyond. We probably would skip next time. It seems... more

Our family had our Family Reunion in Charleston, SC. August 1, 2008 we had planned to go to another restaurant to eat out at., but A.W.Shucks was suggested we called and made reservations for 20 members, they were friendly and gave us the time we wanted. We were later but called to let them know we would be there a... more

We wandered into this restaurant only because my husband's feet had it. It was no where my choice. The best thing I can say about the restaurant is the $3 coupon for lunch. The decor was lacking, alot. We had to polish our own silverware because it was sooooo dirty. That should have been my first sign. I asked the... more

This is supposed to be a tourist trap, but in this case, the tourists are right. We had some of our best Charleston dinners here. more

I had the legendary casserole which is made up of shrimp, scallops, deviled crab, and lobster sauce. It was amazing! My husband had crab cakes and stuffed... more

A pet friendly restaurant in downtown right next to the market. The food was good if unremarkable, but they sat us outside on the terrace and brought food and water for the pup. Was a wonderful quite respite from the heat and the wait staff was excellent. more

Went there two years ago. Had a great experience, so we went back again. The food was horrible. My wife doesn't like seafood, so she order the Chicken tender...and they were deep fried in....the same oil used to deep fry the dish. I had a stuffed shrimp and crab cake combo that left a lot to be desired, still not... more
