If you're looking for a top-tier dining experience in Mount Pleasant, SC, look no further than **The Red Drum**. From the moment we walked through the door, we were greeted with warm, genuine Southern hospitality that set the tone for the entire evening. The atmosphere was inviting and refined without being pretentious—perfect for a relaxed evening out or a special occasion.
What truly stood out was the **exceptional staff**. Every team member we encountered was professional, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what they do. From the host who welcomed us with a smile to the attentive server who made us feel like the only table in the restaurant, the service was flawless. It’s clear the team at The Red Drum takes pride in providing not just a meal, but a memorable experience. Their timing, attention to detail, and warm demeanor created an environment where we felt completely taken care of.
And then there was the **food—absolutely spectacular**. Every bite was packed with flavor and expertly prepared. You can tell that the kitchen staff operates at a high level of excellence. The dishes were beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. There was a harmony to the flavors that only comes from a chef who is truly passionate about their craft. The creativity and care that went into the menu are evident, and the end result is a meal that is both satisfying and unforgettable.
The Red Drum delivers not only with its upscale charm and welcoming ambiance but with a dedication to quality that’s increasingly hard to find. Whether you're local to Mount Pleasant or just passing through, this restaurant is a must-visit. With five-star service and food to match, The Red Drum has easily become one of our favorite dining spots in the Lowcountry. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.

My friends and I (group of 8) went to our 6:15pm reservation on this past Saturday evening and were less than pleased. Our first issue started when our waitress took a long time between initially coming to the table and taking our order. Being busy is understandable. However, our waitress did not check up on us and I tried to get her attention multiple times to ask her for something but ended up having to ask to manager instead. The waitress had a poor attitude with us yet spent 5 minutes at a time talking to her other tables that had less and older people. The menu states an automatic 20% gratuity on parties of 6 or more which I assume is why she did not feel the need to tend to our table as she would another smaller table. I find this absolutely unacceptable. I have been a server myself and never would I be anything different for a certain group. The menu pricing online is cheaper than the menu in person as well as our checks showing 22% gratuity and not 20% as the menu stated. We finished eating at 7:15pm and did not have our checks processed until around 8:00pm as our server did anything but come back to pick up our checks. Very unfortunate experience as the food was very good. I would give the food a 5 star if it was not so highly priced. I got the skirt steak and sweet potato fries and before tip and tax it was $56 and after tip and tax was $76.

The food was less than satisfactory. The chicken wraps were dry and the wrap itself had burn marks not char marks. You could taste the burn of flour. Really sucked! Staff was fine but food wasn’t what I expected for the price. Need a new chef or something. Will not be back

Morgan was great. She was very knowledgeable, and professional. We will definitely be back

This was my first time doing the Brunch at Red Drum and I recommend reservations as we did. We sat on the patio and enjoyed libations and the wonderful menu items. Our server Lexi was very attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious and enjoyed by all in attendance.
The filet of beef (Minon) was melted in your mouth good! The red wine butter added that extra decadence that put this meal over the top! Green beens were cooked perfectly and the walnuts finished the flavor in style. The mashed potatoes were on point as well. This is the second time for me eating this meal here with coworkers. The private dining area make it great to enjoy the meal with other without any distractions!

Great local vibe

Fried shrimp was good but used to be awesome! A bit disappointing. However, when we got the bill there was an additional charge. Asked about it and was told it was a credit card charge. I stated we did not use a credit card but was told that did not matter, it went on all tabs. THIS IS NOT OK!!!!

Went for happy hour at the bar. Got the meatballs & salmon dip. The dip wasn’t a dip; it was more like a cold scoop of chunky salmon salad with very little taste. Bartenders were friendly. Drink prices were strong.

Had the potato floutas Needed chorizo Had the enchiladas Need something to balance the richness ie pickled onions or pickled jalapeño Salsas outstanding!!!!! Super over priced won’t return
