Some of the best food ever! If in Charleston, it is a must. Love the Charleston Carb House!
Just enjoyed another meal at Charleston Crab House/James Island. Food was FANTASTIC and so were the views. Thank you!
Yesterday treated my parents to what they both said was the best restaurant meals they have enjoyed in the wider Charleston area - soft shell crab and grilled seafood trio in many attempts. Outside on the patio with an incredibly gracious and attentive server (Kathy Lynn? - a recent transfer from Phoenix) made the experience all the more remarkable. We’ll be back and as this review attests - will recommend to others. Thanks for your successful efforts.

Charleston Crab House offers delicious southern food with a seafood focus, including traditional Low Country dishes like she-crab soup and shrimp/sausage boil. The restaurant has prompt service, a child-friendly atmosphere with tasty kids' meals, and a welcoming rooftop patio. Customers praise the attentive and friendly service, with some mentioning great experiences outdoors, although the rooftop can get hot during the day. The hush puppies are sweet, and the soft shell crab sandwich is highly recommended and described as delicious. Recent reviews highlight the quality of dishes such as grilled redfish with Cajun sauce, the grilled trio of redfish, shrimp, and scallops, and mussels, which are all highly recommended. The staff, including servers, are praised for their kindness and attentiveness, accommodating special requests like changing vegetables. The restaurant offers a couple of local craft beers on tap, and drinks are reasonably priced. The location is wheelchair accessible on the first floor, though parking may be challenging. Prices are typical for the area, making it a convenient spot for those craving traditional southern seafood in the French Quarter. Reservations are recommended for a smooth dining experience.
