"Comeback" sauce is not good. $25 for an oyster sandwich and all I tasted was some bad hotsauce that belongs on chicken wings. The $4 upgrade for "scallop potatoes" is ridiculous. It was a brick of potato that was completely bland and barely warm.

Best fried chicken, the real deal! Super popular, 40 minute wait at noon on Friday, but worth the wait, come mid-afternoon to avoid that. Creative cocktails.

Went here on our first night in Charleston in October and felt lucky to get a table right away! Absolutely beautiful place and we had oysters and fried chicken that was delicious. I would love to go again, but I would highly recommend making reservations!

We had a large group (12). Service was great, food was even better. Oysters, fish dip, hush puppies, catfish & whole fish were fantastic! Can’t wait to go back.

Wow! Such a fantastic meal and lovely atmosphere. Great selection of local oysters, the clam wraps and hush puppies are a must. Our server Dory was super knowledgeable and gave the best recommendations. Can’t wait to return!

Leon's was one of our favorite places to eat at Charleston. The oysters and fried chicken were the best! Get the scalloped potatoes as a side. Loved the lively atmosphere.
