Excellent fresh seafood. I haven't eaten there yet, but picked scallops for a dinner party, and they were fresh and delicious.

Ordered the Coconut Sticky Rice Bowl with tuna and scallops. Some of the best poke I’ve ever had, the seafood was so fresh. Music was also 🔥

There is truly not a bad thing on the menu! The staff at CudaCo are always so friendly and knowledgeable about their items, so you will be sure to leave happy.
I always believed this was a sit-down restaurant until I went to try it with some visiting friends. I was pleasantly surprised that you order at the register and can then take a seat wherever you like, indoors or outside, and they will bring your food to you. I also appreciated the free parking lot. Even though there is limited indoor seating, there are plenty of picnic tables outside to sit at on a warm Charleston day. You can also easily ask for your food to go. Even better, you can enjoy a meal and still bring home more seafood to cook at a later date while supporting a local small business. I mean, what is better than that?
They have a great local beer and wine selection that you can purchase and take home. More importantly, their food is out-of-this-world fresh. This tiny spot that is easy to miss on James Island has some of the best seafood out there. My go-to is their coconut rice poke bowl with salmon. I would come here every day if I could!

Every element of the coconut sticky rice bowl was delicious. I had the tuna and added the trout roe. My wife had the shrimp. Both were exceptional.
We have two more days in Charleston. Not enough meals in that to cover all their menu items I want to try. Guess we have to come back.
BIG kudos to Cuda Co.!

We loved the fresh seafood and all the menu options. The picnic tables outside near the little stream provided a relaxing place to eat as well. Highly recommend!

Cuda Co is one of those Charleston spots that never disappoints. Just a quick ride from Downtown, it’s my go-to when I want something fresh that really scratches the seafood itch.
The team is friendly, the selection is always top-notch, and you can tell they take pride in what they do.
As a Downtown Charleston realtor, I love sharing local favorites like this with clients who are new to the area.
Cuda Co is the kind of neighborhood business that captures what makes Charleston living so specia, local flavor, genuine people, and incredible food.

Unfortunately they were out of Ceviche so I tried other items on the menu. The white wine clams are to die for, oysters are sweet and fresh. The tuna was fantastic.
Today was the second time I visited CudaCo. They are the best place to get fresh oysters, scallops and so much more. Austin was an amazing help. This time I did also order their Roasted local squash bisque with crab meat special. Just wow! I will definitely come back to try some more things on the menu

It was expensive for what little you get. I understand it's seafood, but this was kinda a joke. One party in front of us. It took over an hour and half for grouper and dozen raw oysters. Left hungry. Ordered at the counter. No help from staff. Picked up our own food from counter. No one checked on us and yet we were still asked to leave a tip. Food was good. But I think other options would be better.

Super cute place! Great casual atmosphere that serves high quality/ high end seafood! Oysters were absolutely spectacular and such a great price along with the lobster roll I had.
