EVERYTHING awesome! Fast & polite service. I had the brisket burger, phenomenal. Girlfriend had pulled pork. She didn't care for the BBQ sauce. Vinegar based.

Sort of shocked how good the BBQ was. Ribs were outstanding. Brisket was a bit more fatty than I prefer, but I know a lot of people like fatty brisket. When I go back I will just order double Ribs.

The people working the front host area were so nice. I came in for hot sauce and their kindness blew me away which is why I’m leaving this review. The person with the tattoo sleeve and beautiful blonde hair deserve a raise. Also I’ve sat at the bar before and it’s pretty awesome too. A great local vibes with music. I send the Bach parties celebrating on our party boat (Harbor Bar CHS) to yall otw back to Folly if they are wanting a good meal without the beach crowds.

Always love coming here. Kids meal is plentiful and affordable, 2-4 chicken strips with choice of fries or fruit. Their fries are the BEST. Everything is fresh. Personal favorite is the farmers salad with either their honey mustard or vinaigrette and 4 ribs with the broccoli salad and potato salad. All great side options. Large indoor and outdoor patio seating options.

Local flavors and Classic BBQ style... so many choices !Fun retro vibe, great outdoor space...impeccable attention to Gluten Free needs.Excellent Service!
There are so many BBQ options in the Charleston area - this one can stand toe to toe with the best of them. Their style brings a unique contribution to the BBQ landscape (representing West Tennessee) - but their customer service far exceeded our expectations and was head and shoulders above the most highly regarded (conventionally) BBQ joints in the area. When putting together a list of restaurants to visit (or frequent regularly), put Martin’s up there!

Great food and ambiance
Spent my 1st 26 years in Eastern NC, the past 27 years in SC. One thing that makes this place good....no mustard sauce on the table. Way to stick to your guns, Martins!
We had the pulled pork plates and the Q was really good. Their vinegar and pepper sauce made it even better!
In my opinion, one of the top 5 BBQ restaurants in SC.

If you want good BBQ, do not come here. Very disappointed in the food. First the BBQ sauce was the consistency of water. The ribs and brisket were very fatty barely any good meat. The cornbread was disgusting. Only thing that was appetizing was the broccoli salad. Service was good, everyone was nice but the food ruined our experience.

I’ve been all over the US and had all different kinds of BBQ and Martins is right up there with the best. This location is accommodating, consistently high quality, and has an awesome atmosphere. Outdoor patio is great for watching sports. Wings, ribs, Mac and cheese, and green beans are some of my favorites. Thank you Martins!

I came in with two 10 year olds. I said I wanted ribs and the lady sold me $100 worth of ribs. WAYYYYYY too much food for me and two kids.
After they sat one rack of ribs down, I said we don't need the other rack. The lady said we can't take them back, they are already in the window.
The ribs are average tasting. The fries were soggy. The beans were awful, they put hot sauce in them. The hush puppies are overdone and burnt. The dry rub was like shoe leather!
Overall the experience was a 2/10 the only thing that was decent was the sweet bbq ribs
