Food is super fresh! Our first time here during a busy summer days. But the arrangement is very efficient. Our waitress is good in recommending the food. At last Mr Hyman also came to meet the customers table by table. Asking for feedback. We love everything here! Will definitely visit again on our next trip. read more

Hyman's Seafood - Shrimp extravaganza - Seafood Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

Not awful but doesn't knock your socks off. I think a fair description would be a seafood version of Cracker Barrel. Large portions - perhaps good for a family. Lots of people rave about the place - so we wanted to give it a try. We tried their highly touted margaritas. Very sweet (heavy on the flavored syrup) and no one in our party was quite sure if they contained any alcohol. The hush puppies we ordered were incredibly over cooked. We watched a table send their order back. Our order of fried green tomatoes and corn ribs came slathered in their secret sauce - a shame to cover up the flavor of the served item. Not a place we would recommend and definitely not worth the 30-45 min wait to get a table. A good stop for a family that likes fried food. I won't go as far to call the place a tourist trap - but it is close. read more

Overall, this is a decent seafood restaurant with a great atmosphere and excellent service. The owners even stopped by our table to ask for feedback, which was a nice touch and showed they genuinely care about their customers. The standout item was definitely the Boom Boom Shrimp--absolutely delicious and something I would come back for again. The hush puppies were also amazing and among the best parts of the meal. On the downside, the Shrimp and Grits were just okay. In a city known for great Shrimp and Grits, this version didn't stand out and wasn't among the best I've had in Charleston. The Bloody Mary was also disappointing. If it weren't for the Shrimp and Grits and Bloody Mary, I would easily give this place 5 stars. The atmosphere, service, Boom Boom Shrimp, and hush puppies were all excellent. Overall, it's worth a visit for seafood. read more

This was honestly one of the best places I have ever been to. It is seriously a place wish Yelp would let me rate it more than 5 stars. We are from out of town and saw this place and went here. There was a bunch of people sitting outdoors like us waiting for a good bit before any times to be able to come in since it's packed. As soon as we went in the vibe was cool to see and then our waiter was seriously one of the top of the top throughout the whole country. He was actually more than perfect about everything and we were all amazed at him and were all amazing at how the taste of the food was. One of the owners even walked up and spoke to us too and he was seriously wonderful too. I do promise that if you are near this area ever that you should go here and even though when you walk up and they say it may be a long time before you can be seated, still just wait to do so because it is worth it for sure. read more

I walked past and saw there was a line... not often am I a solo diner, and they said there's no wait if I'm okay sitting at the bar! I ordered the fried shrimp po boy to-go! The bartender was really hustling, shoutout to her. She took multiple orders right after making several drinks in a row, went to check on different food, while another customer was asking for the bill. The bar counter shift is not for the weak!! My order was done quick too; I'd say say I got my order within 7 minutes from the time I ordered!! It comes with a TON of fried shrimp, so portions are generous. It's a choose your own adventure when it comes to sauce - I really liked the tartare sauce personally. I also really liked their small side of coleslaw. read more

If you're visiting Hyman's Seafood, be ready for true Southern charm from the moment you walk in. It's family-owned, and Victor, the owner, personally greeted everyone as soon as we were seated, which made the experience feel extra warm and welcoming. They start you off with complimentary boiled peanuts--perfectly salted and cooked for hours until tender and full of flavor. The hush puppies were just as delicious, also complimentary, and even handed out to customers waiting in line outside, which was such a nice touch. I wasn't very hungry but still wanted to try some Southern comfort food, so I ordered the fried green tomatoes and shrimp and grits. The grits were creamy and absolutely delicious, and the fried green tomatoes were crispy and full of flavor. My sister had the clam chowder and crab legs, and both were amazing--fresh, well-prepared, and packed with flavor. For dessert, we shared the key lime pie. It was smooth, perfectly balanced, and not overly tart. Great food, generous portions, and genuine hospitality--definitely a spot worth visiting in Charleston. read more

Food was outstanding. If you're looking for a great classic fried fish place. This is it. Service was phenomenal. It's a family run business and the owner came up and introduced himself and walked us through everything. His son made sure we were happy with everything midway through the meal. It's a fun location and ambiance represents that. Quality and quantity of food was wonderful. Waiter was super chill read more

Preparé to wait a while especially if you're coming during peak times as they don't take reservations. But I will say the wait was worth it. My group of 5 ordered a ton and shared everything. My favorites were the fried catfish, the croquettes, gumbo rice, and the brownie Sunday. Oh and the hush puppies! Wasn't a fan of the moonshine drinks. read more

When my wife and I first arrived in Charleston, our Uber driver gave us some advice. He told us to skip the Italian restaurants, but make sure we eat plenty of seafood! I'm not sure about the Italian places, but seafood restaurants here are awesome and Hyman's is at the top of the list. There's always a line outside here and on a Saturday night, we waited about 45 minutes for a table (no reservations here). They first give you samples of the hush puppies when you're waiting and they're delicious! Once you're seated, they serve you a plate of boiled peanuts, this is the first time I've had this. When you get around to the menu, there are so many choices! We started off with the Carolina Delight which our server said they're known for. These shrimp and grits were fried up into delicious cakes, truly unique! Next I had a bowl of the She Crab soup. This may have been one of the best soups I've ever had! As an entree, I had the Southern Croquettes made with Chilean Sea Bass and my wife had Shrimp Scampi. So much food, you won't walk out hungry! There are pictures of celebrities everywhere here and plaques on the tables of where they are. I sat in the same spot as Rick Pitino. I hope that means good luck for St. John's in the tournament! read more

Took my mom to Charleston for the first time, and she said she wanted to try Hyman's seafood. We had such a great time. Everyone who worked there customer service the crap out of us the entire time! Clifton was an excellent server and took great care of us. They loaded us up with appetizers and they were all delicious. The hush puppies were phenomenal. The fried green tomatoes and grits were so savory. Our meal was great, but honestly, the appetizers came out a little more hot and tasted a little bit better than the food, not to say the food was bad for the meal, but the appetizers hit for us more than our main courses did. We had such a good time and the staff really took care of us and it was a great old feel in the building. We even saw that Lynyrd Skynyrd and Paula Dean had eaten at the same table we had. read more

We visited Hyman's Seafood during our Charleston trip after hearing so much about it. The ambiance was definitely one of the highlights. The restaurant has a really unique and lively atmosphere, and it was fun seeing the tables tag by celebrities and notable visitors who have eaten there over the years. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming, and the service throughout the meal was genuinely good. The food itself was decent and enjoyable, but honestly felt pretty normal compared to the level of hype around the restaurant. Considering we waited over an hour and a half for a table, it didn't quite feel worth the wait. It was also a little confusing seeing some tables empty while so many people were still waiting outside. Overall, it's a cool spot to experience at least once for the atmosphere and history, but the food alone probably wouldn't make us wait that long again. read more

Sometimes the tourist hotspot gets it very right. I thought Hyman's, from the food to the decor to the general store that they very ingeniously make you walk through after your meal to the "conversation starter" cards on your table, was a total hoot. One thing's for sure, you won't be bored during your meal here. For starters, the menu is basically a novel, with multiple variations of seafood. We were having an early dinner so I showed some serious self-restraint by getting a cup of the Charleston classic, the she crab soup, and a side of cole slaw. For my first time trying it, the she crab soup was ... interesting. Adding sherry definitely elevated the flavor. It was thick and chock full of crab meat but something was missing, maybe some acid or heat. I preferred my friend's New England-style chowder. Our waitress was actually the best part of our meal. Warm and funny, she started off with pointing out the literal array of sauces on the table (including a magic sauce that I put on everything), giving us a free plate of their boiled peanuts and hush puppies, and also giving us a complimentary appetizer of their fried green tomatoes and creamy grits (the Wadmalaw Delight). Though I think you can get either or both of those dishes by scanning a QR code. Still, we appreciated the kind gesture - loved trying a small bit of everything. The portion sizes are enormous. Come hungry or I recommend sharing one of the plates. And take a look at the convo cards, they're hilarious. read more

Simple but good is what the table next to me described it and that description was spot on. They don't take reservations so we had about a 15 minute wait, while outside we were offered a hush puppy that was one of the best hush puppies I've had in my life it was hot, crispy and perfect. However, inside they served them instead of bread and they were cold and just okay. I got the she-crab soup, New Orleans shrimp and shrimp & grits. Everything could've used a little more seasoning for my taste. The bread that came with the New Orleans shrimp was unfortunately cold. The service was excellent, one of the owners came around to make sure everything was going well and was very personable. The food I'd give 3 stars but how great the service was made it 4 stars. read more

We had a wonderful experience this evening at Hymans. The food was amazing. I ordered the Chilean Sea Bass croquettes, they were absolutely wonderful. Our server had us try their outstanding hush puppies and fried green tomatoes and grits, we sent the plate back clean. The fried green tomatoes were crisp and the grits were creamy. The service was excellent. One of the owners, Tobias even stopped by our table to sure we were well and enjoying our dinner. The ambiance was cozy, we felt like we were dining with family in this classic fifth generation restaurant, with an extensive menu from seafood to po boys, to pasta, and so much more. I definitely look forward to returning, there's a few other items on the menu that I need to try. Dinner was a treat! read more

We stopped in just for a quick drink on our way to a carriage ride. We asked about the food and was told it was very delicious. There was someone outside, giving out hush puppies and let me tell you, if we weren't gonna stop in we would after I tasted those pups. They had me at hush puppies. This is a very casual, what you would expect wooden bar with a family/regular feel. Well, I cannot review their food other than those wonderful pups, I would definitely recommend wedding your whistle at this place read more

On Friday, July 10, I hosted a surprise birthday dinner for my wonderful mother at Hyman's Seafood, and overall, we had a memorable celebration. I want to give a special thank you to our servers, Brandon and Ora. They were absolutely amazing! Their professionalism, attentiveness, and outstanding customer service made our evening truly enjoyable. The food was also delicious, and we sincerely appreciate the excellent service they provided. Unfortunately, our experience with the manager, Tammy, was quite different. I had a party of 16 guests, and rather than working with us to keep our group together, she insisted on separating several of our guests into another section behind a brick wall. When I expressed my concerns, I found her demeanor to be dismissive and discourteous, which was disappointing--especially during such a special family celebration. Tammy's hospitality skills are completely lacking, and I highly recommend that, if she's going to remain in Hospitality Management, she take a Hospitality 101 course at Cornell University! read more

It is always hard to rate a place that so many people love or have rated highly. Does the high rating affect my opinion and experience before I even go in? Hyman's is a place that has been reviewed by so many people who apparently think it is perfection. So of course, I go in with high hopes. I wanted to avoid waiting, so I sat at the bar. A female bartender cleaned off the counter and gave me a menu. I will just say, that this particular lady seemed a little too busy to pay attention to some of the patrons. She wasn't very friendly and ignored us for a good part of the time. Luckily there was another lady working in our area who was easier to flag down and seemed much nicer and attentive. When I placed my order, I showed waitress 1 that I had followed them on IG, so that was supposed to get me a complementary order of boiled peanuts and hush puppies. She acknowledged this, but never brought the items. The menu also said if no staff recommended you the Carolina Delight appetizer, a manager would give it to you for free. No one offered, but I didn't want to bring it up to a manager. Probably that offer should be taken off the menu if it's not actually part of the process. I ended up ordering the Carolina Delight, and the grits cakes and sauce were very tasty. The shrimp was pretty good, but the texture was a bit off. (I later found out that despite being on the coast, this restaurant uses frozen seafood.) Overall, I enjoyed the dish though. The last thing I want to point out, and maybe this is common, but I don't commonly sit at the bar. More than one of the waitstaff from the restaurant would come to the bar to pick up drinks for their table and use their bare hands to fish out the garnishes for the drinks. They didn't wash their hands, just dipped in, grabbed a cherry or orange, and dropped it directly into the drink. Is this common? I would think using tongs would be more appropriate. So, I will round up from 3.5 stars and give this restaurant a 4, mostly due to the service missteps. It won't slow down their traffic at all, but maybe next time the service will be a bit better. read more

Hyman's Seafood - Carolina Delight (shrimp and grits) - Seafood Near Me - Charleston, South Carolina

I'm not sure how or why, but I know I was very impressed with Hyman's Seafood. What can I say, they make delicious seafood southern style. First, they do not accept reservations so be ready to put your name on the list and maybe explore a bit before getting seated. They nearly perfectly timed my wait, but I wouldn't expect they always time things quite as well. Once seated, be prepared for an extensive menu. They have their catch(es) of the day and other specials in addition to a long menu. To avoid analysis paralysis, I went with the recommended shrimp platter as it also had a good variety of shrimp. I didn't know what to expect with BBQ shrimp (unique, good, but probably not something I would get too frequently). I loved the fried shrimp since they were very lightly fried. No surprise, their collard greens were great. I ordered a Bloody Mary to go with my meal and enjoyed it - would recommend. They have a deal where you get a double for a few bucks more, but I decided to pass since I had a run the next day. Great service. Expect a follow up during your meal from one of the owners. A nice touch that was done seeking legit feedback versus just checking a box. I'd love to go back to Hyman's. It will need to wait until my next trip to Charleston! read more

They were giving away free hush puppies at the door, which piqued our interest. We went in for lunch and did not regret it. The waitress Wanda was super helpful and attentive, and comped us a couple of appetizers. We ordered their fish of the day x 2, and Victor's corn ribs, broccoli, brussels sprouts, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Everything was great. Portions are huge. We ended up taking a bunch of food home. read more

My wife and I recently went to Hyman's Seafood for lunch on a rainy weekend day. Hyman's Seafood is no-frills, casual, and usually packed-expect to wait a while unless you want to sit at the bar. We were able to get bar seating within a couple minutes of our arrival, and our service was solid even though the restaurant was packed. We shared the fried green tomatoes and grits, which was more like cheese with some grits and two tomatoes. This dish needed more tomatoes and grits to balance out the cheese. We shared the Chilean sea bass croquets and the Carolina Special platter. The best thing by far were the hush puppies-Hyman's Seafood makes amazing hush puppies (worth walking by the restaurant just to get the samples they hand out). The croquets and bread were OK-however, everything else was very disappointing. I would recommend Hyman's for their hush puppies, some appetizers, and a drink or two, but to go elsewhere for a full meal. read more

Charleston knows how to eat, and Hyman's proves it. Every single dish we tried was top-notch--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. From the shrimp and grits to the hush puppies, everything tasted like the South done right. Service was just as impressive. Every staff member was attentive without hovering--genuine hospitality that felt old-school in the best way. You can tell this place runs like a well-oiled kitchen, not a tourist trap. The only thing that caught me off guard was the slightly formal vibe--think Southern Sunday best instead of beach casual--but as a West Coaster, I found it kind of charming. Charleston takes pride in its dining, and Hyman's wears that pride beautifully. read more

Not fine dining but to me doesn't look like a tourist trap either like others have said. A lot of people waiting by the door and they got a table for us in about 15 minutes. The place is actually larger than what I thought, looks like it is two houses pit together and when you leave they make you go through the gift shop Was a little disappointed because the NOLA shrimp is described as spicy, I can take really spicy this was very mild to my standard and a little too greasy for me but I was careful not to indulge with the sauce due to the amount of oil used, the biggest reason of my disappointment was that the shrimp is "tail on" nothing in the menu described as such also was expecting the shrimp to be local but it was from India was told by server. Had to use knife to cut the tails off and leave some protein inside not without acquiescence that made me sad but I refuse to use my fingers in the greasy sauce. Loved the Cajun fries Size of the the lobsta dish was enough for wife that doesn't eat a lot like us guys Nice touch to have the owner come to our table to check when we were about to leave, we didn't do the hush puppies or the boiled peanuts even if they were free Will go back when my out of towners come to visiting read more

This restaurant was the least raw fish but still seafood I could find on Yelp close to the Charleston market. A Saturday around 1pm our wait for two was about 15 minutes. First time here there is an employee along the road out front offering free hush puppies to waiting public. We were directed up the stairs wait for person tell them table number given. The inside spans a large area, lots of seating upstairs. I was drawn immediately to the corn on cob in shape of small rib, and oh were they delicious. What we didn't know is one order is more than enough for two, we had two orders. As for the entrees, mine in particular the Southern Croquettes Seabass was chefs kiss succulent. The taste is hard to describe you just have to experience it; my wife got bone-in 20 oz fried whole flounder. Quite a lot of fish at least 2-3 servings worth, she was provided an apple chutney sauce to accompany. Each entree included one side and coleslaw. My sweet potato soufflé not too sugary tasted more natural w maybe touch of brown sugar and raisins. She had African rice was okay, coleslaw was good to me maybe a touch of vinegar in it. Also want to include the hush puppy, I had a hot one it was very similar to donut. There was a manager person that came to each table to pep up patrons, it was all in good taste. I would come back again, great job! read more

Hyman's Seafood in Charleston is the kind of restaurant that turns a good meal into a genuinely memorable experience. Food The seafood was excellent from start to finish--fresh, well-seasoned, and served hot the way it should be. Every plate felt like a Lowcountry classic, the kind of comfort food that makes you slow down and really enjoy each bite. From the first hush puppy to the last bite of seafood, it tasted like the kitchen really took pride in what they put out. Service The service was just as impressive as the food: warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly without ever feeling forced. Staff checked in at the right times, made sure everything was to my liking, and created the kind of relaxed atmosphere that lets you settle in and enjoy your meal. You can tell customer care is a real priority here, not just a slogan on the wall. Atmosphere and "home away from home" feel What really stands out about Hyman's is how comfortable it feels, like a home away from home in the middle of downtown Charleston. The space has that lived-in, historic charm and a welcoming energy that makes you feel more like a guest than a customer. It is the kind of place where you can linger over conversation, laugh a little louder, and just be yourself. A personal highlight As if the great food and service weren't enough, the night was made even more special when I bumped into a childhood friend there. That unexpected reunion in such a warm, easygoing setting felt like the perfect "icing on the cake" and fit the spirit of the restaurant perfectly. Hyman's Seafood isn't just a spot to eat; it's the kind of place where good food, good people, and good memories all come together. read more

Our family was coming to Charleston with two of us that love seafood and wanted our fresh fix two that don't like it at all. This proved to be hard when looking for a restaurant. It seemed like either they had amazing seafood and not many non seafood options or they did not have much fresh seafood. This wonderful place checked all the boxes. We showed up at 5:30 on a Thursday evening. We were given a projected wait time of 45 minutes. In the end we waited about an hour but we were able to get one of the tables out front so we were good. A young lady had hush puppies for people to sample. The hush puppies were sweet and delicious. My daughter in law and I went in the general store. They have large sinks when you walk in where you can try different smelling scrubs on your hands. They smelled great and sure made our hands soft and moisturized. Our table ended up being upstairs in a smaller room. When your name is called, the hostess tells you where to go and what table number you are supposed to tell the next person you meet. It was our first time there but it sure felt like there are lots of different rooms. At the table there is a box that they encourage everyone to put their cells phones in so you can engage in conversation. If you do that, Hyman's will make a donation to a charity that you choose from a list. Love this. There are also these cool cards that make for great conversation. Our server was Daniel S. and he took such care of us. As people that had never been there before, he brought us some complimentary hush puppies and boiled peanuts. He helped us pick out the perfect meals and was there to check on us throughout our meal. My daughter in law and I both ordered flights of the moonshine margarita. It was fun trying four different flavors and comparing what we liked about each. We both decided we liked the strawberry best but all the flavors were good. Our son had a beer and my husband had a double spiked sweet tea lemonade that was written on the board. He enjoyed it so much that he said it would have been easy to have several. But since he was driving, he did not. Our son ordered the Reuben with fries and got an extra side of the Mac and cheese. Our daughter in law had the chicken fettuccine Alfredo and the brussel sprouts as her side. Both said their food was really good. She said the brussel sprouts were really really good. I had the captain's platter and my husband had the Deep South. Mine came with oysters, which I don't like, so our server was able to leave those off and give me more shrimp. The shrimp were lightly breaded and there were so many of them and they were cooked perfectly. The sea bass croquette was almost decadent. It is definitely a very memorable food that I will be talking about for a long time. The portion sizes were large and the prices were very fair for what you got. We really enjoyed that one of the Hyman family members came by our table and chatted with us. He was very personable and a joy to talk to. You felt like you were catching up with an old friend that wanted to hear about you. In these days where everyone is in such a hurry, it was so nice. You certainly felt like a valued customer. We could not have picked a better place to enjoy our evening. I had seen the very large number of reviews but did not know until we got there how many awards the restaurant has received. The nicest part is that the restaurant doesn't seem to take those for granted. Based on our experience they are doing everything right to deserve each of this awards on a nightly basis. And those awards are very well deserved. Until I get the chance to come back to Charleston, I will be dreaming about this wonderful meal. Thank you Hyman's read more

The food at Hyman's was absolutely worth the wait--so if the long line makes you hesitate, don't let it. Management brought out hush puppies and alcoholic slushy samples while we waited to be seated, which was a great touch. I ordered the 1 lb. of NOLA‑style shrimp, and it was incredible. My wife had the Low‑Country boil, and the portion was generous enough for two full meals. We were served by Maddie, who was attentive, friendly, and always timely with anything we needed. One of the owners also made rounds to each table, chatting with guests and making sure everything met their standards, which added a personal, welcoming feel. The ambiance is unlike anywhere else--walls covered with photos of celebrities who've visited, plus name plaques on the tables where they sat, which adds a fun bit of character. While we were there, we even saw one of the owners handing out free ice‑cream vouchers to kids and giving out meals to go for members of the homeless community. Overall, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. read more
