Charleston: Casual/Outdoor Seafood Rec?
Thanks for all of the suggestions! We'd settled on Fleet Landing, mainly for kid-friendliness and central location, but I'm going to call The Wreck and see if they can accommodate us.
Charleston: Casual/Outdoor Seafood Rec?
I'll be Charleston in November for the Citadel's homecoming. We're going to have a pretty large group coming into town, including a couple of small children/toddlers. I'm trying to find a fairly casual seafood place, preferably with an outdoor seating option (assuming weather permits) that can accommodate a large group (roughly 17 people). The outside seating is primarily to have somewhere to entertain the babies or take them in case they throw a fit, but isn't a necessary requirement.
My initial thought was Mimi's on James Island but I can't find a website and have only had brunch there, not sure that they serve dinner. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
NYC Hound In Atlanta.Some Questions
Shaun's and Holman & Finch are both good choices. In the same vein (Southern, Farm-to-Table, Chef-driven) I also really like Cakes & Ale in Decatur. Dinner at Cakes & Followed followed by a short walk up to the Brickstore is just about a perfect night in Decatur.
Mary Mac's Tearoom is quality old-school Southern "meat and three" and definitely worth a visit. You also need to go to the Varsity for a chili-cheese dog, onion rings, and a frosted orange. Skipping the Varsity while in Atlanta is like skipping In-and-Out when you're in LA.
