    Shrimp & Grits
    Angie M.

    Our food was amazing as well as the service of our waiter Wayne. He gets a 5 star! Ask for him. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very relaxing having dinner on the patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend for a wonderful meal.

    Met friends for lunch. I was looking forward to the Thai shrimp salad that wasn't on the menu at my first visit. Our server was delightful but there were a couple of strange incidents during our meal. We were seated in the back on the right. We placed our order. Server told us Jane is known for the coconut cream cake, but they're all out! Their mushroom supplier hadn't delivered, all out of those. Also known for fruit in the iced tea. I tried the tea, which was basic black tea with fruit floating atop--no actual fruit-infused flavor, so a bit underwhelming. Loved my salad, but halfway through we started smelling something like a dirty diaper or the cooking of cabbage or mold? [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are no Brussels sprouts on the menu, so we were all trying to locate the odor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was off putting for sure. We mentioned it to the server. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We learned there was a roof leak above our heads--like it had been there awhile.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is great. Service was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Odor was not expected and should really be addressed![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a bright and cheery bistro tastefully decorated with a shiplap theme.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped here for lunch and shared the Farmers sandwich. This was exceptionally delicious, brimming with roasted eggplant, Roma tomatoes, artichokes and mushrooms. It came with skinny fries which dipped in their fresh green goddess, was mouthwateringly delicious. The portions are fine for sharing, even when hungry. I also tasted the toasted pecan cranberry chicken salad. It was the best I've eaten! Alas, I have to give this bistro 4 stars instead of 5 because the delivery of the food (for four) was painstaking slow. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also I found the booth seating to be cramped and uncomfortable, especially since we had to sit and wait for so long.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Mushroom flatbread

    Oooooooooooooooh yesssss!!!!! To be accommodated with a smile and having a wheelchair was a breath of fresh air. Great spot, great service and mouth watering food. The mushroom flatbread is a must if you're eating healthy. The bourbon sauce mmmmmm. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice music playing and having outside seating is magnificent on a beautiful day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Hummus

    Four of us went for dinner on Friday with reservations at 7:00 pm for an outside seating. We were told they didn't have outdoor seating so we were seated inside which worked out better since the weather got a bit cooler. Jay was our waiter and started us out with water from a reusable bottle. We started out with some drinks--- Margarita, Therapist, and Draft IPA. Our fourth person wasn't drinking other than water. For vegetarians such as my wife, you can order off the salad or starter section. She ordered hummus which was excellent as well as tomato flatbread which also looked good, but I didn't have a chance to sample. I ordered the Seafood Pasta which is in a spicy marinara sauce served with an orchid flower on top. The dish itself was much larger than it appeared with about 6-10 large shrimp and 4-6 mussels as well as very tasty panchetta. It certainly hit the spot and I would rate a 10 out of 10. The servers were very attentive and from start to finish we were done within 90 minutes. Probably less than that. I was a bit surprised over the total fees--- First there is the South Carolina sales tax of 7%. Then another tax (Island Tax?) of 2%. Then an additional 3% charge for using a credit card. I'm not a fan of additional charges. Their prices are a bit high, but reasonable for the HHI during tourist season. No discount for locals, though. Hence just 4 stars.

It was clear as we sat down that this is where the locals eat We sat out on the patio and appreciated the 6 foot hedge to provide us some privacy and we started with their nachos.

My wife got the Saloon burger, my son got the buffalo chicken sandwich & fries, with the same dusting that was on the nachos, and I got the southwestern salad. None of us could finish our meals given the portions that are served. Tasha who took care of us, while training another, did a fantastic job and was so attentive and sweet.

    This is one of those places that has only a few things on the menu, but they do those things SO…read morewell. Their niche is smash burgers and waffle fries, and they did not disappoint. Starting with the burger, I like when a smash burger is ACTUALLY a smash burger. They include cheese and pickles on it and it was just the perfect burger. I think it's pretty high on my burger rankings. Might even beat Heavy's! I feel like it's rare to get waffle fries unless you're going to Chick Fil A, so it was nice to have them with our burger. We got a bag to share and there was plenty. They were salted and seasoned to perfection and perfectly crispy. We sat outside where they have a full bar, a TV for sports, and they had live music.

    The Good: The Smashburgers are excellent -- cheese, pickles,…read moreand onions all on point. If you haven't been here, stop settling for chain burger joints. This is genuinely one of the best burgers around. The waffle fries deserve a special mention: fresh, nicely done, and you get a generous portion. Think Chick-fil-A fries, but the way they should be. The Truffle Fries are solid too -- just a bit rich for my taste, but that's purely personal preference. I also tried the Sweet & Spicy Chicken -- good and flavorful, though slightly heavy on the batter for me. Still worth a try. A Couple of Suggestions: A lower-carb side option would be a welcome addition -- I asked and it was a hard no. Hopefully Tin and Tallow considers adding some healthier alternatives down the road. Breakfast -- Proceed with Caution: The croissant with egg and cheese was, unfortunately, a miss for me. The egg and cheese were fine, but buttering an already butter-heavy croissant and griddling it turned it into a flat, gooey mess. I hear there's a biscuit option, which might be better -- but personally, I'd love to see an English muffin or bagel on the menu. Something with a little more structure would go a long way. Bottom Line: Come for the burgers and fries -- you won't be disappointed. Just maybe skip the croissant breakfast for now.

My friend had the short rib lasagne ($26). My meal was absolutely perfect, everything seasoned/flavored perfectly. My friend's dish looked a little heavy for me but she loved it, also. We chose a nice wine, I Googled it: Banfi Belnero is a premium Super Tuscan IGT wine from Castello Banfi in Montalcino, primarily crafted from Sangiovese blended with international varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. It features a deep ruby color with notes of black cherry, plum, spice, and vanilla, offering a full-bodied, structured palate with balanced tannins. Enjoyed 2 glasses of it ($32)! We split the chocolate Pot de Creme ($10) for dessert, so good. The restaurant was crowded, as we went a dinner time. Were lucky to get a table, in the bar area, near the window. Our server was running by and I didn't mind at all calling out to him, as he didn't check on us as much as the table to next to us, who were regulars. Once they left, he honored us with his presence, actually lingered to explain the quality of the wine we chose. I enjoyed this visit, although I am spoiled on getting much better service in Dallas, but every time I visit the islands, I try to remember to focus on the food, company and atmosphere.

It doesn't feel corporate or manufactured at all. More like you've stumbled into somebody's lovingly chaotic backyard dinner party where the food just happens to be genuinely top-tier. The mismatched charm, handwritten feel, and warm atmosphere are part of what makes it so special. There's this brilliant contrast between the laid-back hole-in-the-wall vibe and the seriously refined cooking coming out of the kitchen. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were incredibly tender, fried perfectly, and drizzled with a lovely house-made ranch. The sweet house pickles alongside were such a good touch. We also each had a cup of she crab soup which was beautifully seasoned and packed with tonnes of crab morsels. For mains, we shared the shrimp and grits and completely understood why the recipe has won awards, including being recognised as the 3rd best in the world. The recipe is rooted in traditional Lowcountry cooking but elevated with layers of flavour that somehow still feel comforting and homemade. The grits were unbelievably creamy, and the shrimp and sausage were perfectly cooked with fantastic flavour throughout. We also split the seafood purloo with blackened grouper, and it was equally impressive. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted incredibly fresh without trying too hard to be fancy. What really made the experience though was the staff. Everyone went above and beyond. They took time to chat with us about the area, paced the courses perfectly so nothing felt rushed, and by the end we were leaving with handshakes feeling more like guests than customers. Places like this are getting harder to find. We'll absolutely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Lowcountry food served by genuinely wonderful people.

The hush puppies came with honey butter which was also amazing. The lunch grilled grouper fish taco was delicious & fresh. The salsa on it was very flavorful! The house-made potato chips are also great. Service was great (not rushed). They do need drink coasters (water was all over the table). We came back for dinner. They had live music.
