    Fish & Chips
    Jessica B.

    Delish! I had a perfect fish & chips meal here. The fish tasted fresh and was nicely fried in a fluffy batter. The fries were the "good kind," crispy on the outside but hot and soft on the inside. The only thing I would change is the portion size as the fish felt a little on the smaller side, or maybe I just wanted more because it was really good! Either way, I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you're looking for food on Folly Beach :)

    We stopped in Coconut Joe's for a quick bite to eat since we were hungry and just arrived in Isle of Palms. It is a true southern beach bar - fried food, overly sweet drinks, and deck that over looks the beach. The food was fine, the place felt a bit dirty, they clearly need to invest in updating it. Our waited was attentive but clearly had a runny nose which made us feel like it was dirty and questionable that we may get sick.

    Fish sandwich and great fries

    Decent food but there were definitely better options but they had longer wait times. Great service and not too crowded. Cute interior. Fish sandwich needed seasoning and some type of sauce.

    I was ready to give five stars until we received the bill. There was a 3.5% surcharge for ALL non-cash payments, including debit cards. Surcharging debit cards is illegal for federal law and also goes against visa and MasterCard rules. I don't remember being informed or seeing a notice beforehand, so be aware of this. That being said, the food was awesome. My wife had the shrimp tacos and I had the coconut shrimp platter with pimento cheese grits and Southern style green beans. Everything was delicious. The tacos were full of shrimp and my coconut shrimp were huge. The grits and green beans were also seasoned very well.

    Very well done Coconut Shrimp. (Shrimp should not be well done)

    Pretty good bar and grill in one of the best locations on Folly, although I do miss St. James Gate. It's winter so everything is a little slower, we got here around 7:30pm, thought they closed at 10, they told us 9 but I really think they were just being nice and closed at 8. Still very friendly and got our drinks and food out quickly though! Blackened catch of the day was the star of the evening, fantastic! There was nothing wrong with the scallops, they were fine, but definitely don't present as fresh local hand breaded scallops (they aren't advertised that way to be fair) but they are too uniform to not be processed. I might be wrong. Also the French fires are surprisingly delicious, don't pass them up! The only disappointing part of the meal was unfortunately the thing we went there to try, the coconut shrimp. I believe they would have had a good flavor to them but they were so far beyond overcooked it was a task to chew through them. Which is strange because it was all 16 coconut shrimp (across the table) and everything else was cooked perfectly. Oh well, you should still give this place a try and I hope your shrimp are fantastic!

    Fallon having fun!

    Super friendly service from the whole staff. I appreciated the chef coming out to let us know about a menu change and being flexible on a custom request. Food was all & more than expected. Fallon was especially awesome so be sure to ask for her and give her a good tip!

    "Jumbo wings" this is either a joke or they were out of their normal wings. These were microooo. Buffalo flavor w ranch

    Service was amazing. Kudos for being open Christmas and only having two servers on. Our server was great w what she was working with. Boyfriend got the spicy chicken wrap and he loved his. I got the burger and honestly was the most bland one I've had in a while. The fries are mediocre and the Ranch doesn't taste homemade at all. Mimosas had a strange flavor - maybe the oj? Not bad though. Great arcade ! Don't play the claw games though they don't actually grasp lol

    I recently visited coconut Joe's Beach Grill with a group of girlfriends after being at the beach all morning. We loved the beach vibe of the restaurant immediately walking in. We were able to sit down quickly and our waitress did a pretty good job. I'm not sure how many other sections she had as the restaurant is multiple levels so we tried to give her grace as much as possible. The crab dip was not very good and tasted fishy. I've had crab dip from almost every seafood place in Charleston and never had it taste as fishy. All of the other food was excellent. I had a salad with coconut shrimp on top and the shrimp were delicious. The burger was a good size burger and had good flavor. My friend was impressed with the shrimp tacos! All in all, I would definitely eat there again but I would not recommend the crab dip.

    This was unexpected. Stopped in for lunch one day. Got a burger and a side of fries. Both were…read moreoutstanding! Don't recall the details re: the burger, because it was a couple weeks ago. However, the fries. OMG! They're slightly larger than shoestring, so they're the perfect size, imho. Crispy, yet thick enough to where they don't get cold right away. They also had some kind of herb on them that made them stand out. I've also gotten the Greek side salad there before and it was also outstanding...perfectly dressed with yummy feta and Kalamata olives. Finally, I've also gotten the grilled ham and cheese sandwich there during a late night visit. Basic, but perfectly executed and absolutely delicious. For a bar that's probably better known as a great music venue, this place has some serious chops when it comes to bar food. Am so glad I decided to check it out!

    So, this was our first time trying The Bounty Bar, we usually stick to Jack of Cups or Chico Feo on…read moreFolly but we had family with picky eaters with us and needed something like chicken fingers (and it's Tuesday, so JOC was closed). It's a seat yourself kind of place and with the World Cup going on, a super fun vibe, the place was about half full. The hubs and I got fish and chips and the fish was super good. The fries were cold when we got them, which was a bummer. Our SIL had to go ask for her drink after like 20 minutes, the other drinks had come so I think our server just forgot. Our SIL and brother shared the chicken parm and it was huge, plenty to share and they both said it was really good. We had to go ask again about the side of fries my 6 year old ordered because it didn't come out either, but when we finally got them nice and hot, I was bummed we had gotten the cold ones...The hot ones were yum! My other niece got chicken fingers and it's a big plate! She liked those too. We all agreed that the food was really good, better than we expected for a bar and the service was disappointing. It would've been different if it felt like she was really hustling and just had too many tables, but it was way more of a "meh..." kind of vibe. Overall, I would give this place a shot, really good food and maybe the service just had an off night.
