    The Southern Bar & Grill is a great local hangout in Mt. Pleasant. The interior has humorous things…read moreon the wall, dollar bills signed and stapled to the bar, and a great vibe in a very clean environment. We had to try the Apple Pie shots since everyone seems to talk about them. This is way more complex than some apple flavor liquor. The ingredients take some prep work, and the result is something that literally tastes like apple pie. If they bottled this, I would definitely buy it. They have two specialty drinks, the Freshy and the Orange Crush, both of which are made with fresh squeezed juice squeezed right when you order. I had the Freshy which is orange or grapefruit juice with your favorite liquor. I chose grapefruit with vodka and even though I am not a huge fan of grapefruit the freshness and tartness of the drink made it quite enjoyable. My wife had the Orange Crush with Deep Eddy's O.J vodka, Triple Sec, Sprite and some of that fresh squeezed orange juice. It was nice and sweet which was good since we were ordering a lot of savory options. The Potato Skins arrived first and they were truly impressive. Good sized skins with the perfect amount of potato, not too thick or too dry and definitely homemade. They had mixed cheese, bacon and green onions served with sour cream also loaded with green onions. As far as all the potato skins I have had these were a standout. Next came the onion rings with an absolute massive serving for just eight dollars. You could tell they were homemade and served with a chili garlic sauce. The best part was the batter coating which was crispy yet didn't fall off when bent or bitten. They reheated nicely in the air fryer. Next, we tried the Toasted Raviolis which were filled with Italian sausage and served with a house made marinara. They were nice and crispy, but the true star was the marinara sauce which was thick and chunky with parmesan mixed all throughout. I wish they had more dishes that used this sauce as it was excellent. On the advice of some regulars, I tried the chicken fingers which were all breast meat, dill brined and hand battered. It was good advice since the chicken was juicy and tender with a flavorful coating. Sometimes it pays to ask. My wife ordered the thing they are known for their Philly Cheesesteak. She decided on double meat, and they were super generous to the point she looked at me and said, "I don't know how I am going to finish this!". This cheesesteak gets nominate for a lot of best of lists and I could see why. I liked that the cheese was mixed in with the meat and not just poured on top. She enjoyed it but said next time she will order it as is. This is a great place to hang out and relax and maybe catch a band or some bluegrass and enjoy a great meal!

    Tried to have a drink here and the bartender guy with bleached white hair was rude as hell. I guess…read morehe was flustered or something by how busy it was but no excuse to be rude like that. Cool bar tho.

    I am in town for a birthday celebration and needed some lunch. We decided to stay at ACME…read moreLowcountry Kitchen. The staff were very accommodating from the moment we entered. We were setted promptly and given a great waiter-Chris. He was accommodating. He made a few recommendations/ favorites of his own. The food came out fast and was very good. Everything was seasoned and hot. The ambiance was one of a seafood establishment. The seating and environment was just fine. We really picked a great location to eat.

    There's something about the name "Acme" and good seafood when it comes to coastal restaurants…read more Along the Gulf, you think of Acme Oyster House. On the coastal Atlantic, we recommend Acme Low Country Kitchen. You get five-star food in a rustic setting that could benefit for a bit of a makeover -- but only a touch or two. Excellent service compliments the food. On our plate: The "Light: House, including sauteed shrimp, seared scallops and a house-made, fresh crab cake that comes with a caveat that a shell chip or two might be mixed (we call that authentication). All were perfectly prepared and ample sized. This wasn't a shrimp-and-chips drive-through; this was a meal. Our sides: Collards (this is the low country) and fried Brussel sprouts, again well prepared. Price: $38.25 and among the higher-priced items on the seafood-heavy menu but worth it. Others in our party, including two non seafood eaters, chose the pecan fried chicken (two breast with one each going home because of the size) with another going with the Carolina Duo of the chicken and short ribs. Will we return? Yes. There are other options we've yet to try as our visits to Charleston increase but this was a real treat. Even better, it is near the fabled Dingy beach bar where we ducked in to watch the Kentucky Derby. We could spend our retirement years at The Dingy but that's another review to come. Acme is a 4.5-star review with the only points shaved because it just needs a little updating (after the season, perhaps). The food and service more than make up for it.

    I didn't post any photos of the food because we ate it too fast!…read more I rate places based on what they are trying to be. This is a dive bar, and it's a darn good one. We were in Mount Pleasant on vacation. We stopped in here for an early dinner and beers after 18 holes of golf. The food was very tasty. The servers were friendly. And the beer was cold. I just wish my dog was on the trip so he could have sampled the Pup Menu.

    The venue was very clean. At 11:30 on a Saturday it was dead. I was one of four people when I…read morevisited. The bartenders were nice that took care of me. Everything went smoothly until about 12/12:15 when I was trying to check out and I could not get anyone to come over and get me my check. One of the bartenders stepped out for a bit and the other was talking to his wife at the end of the bar. I tried getting his attention multiple times when he walked by and continuously walked to her. (It was me and her at the bar.) I just wanted to leave. I ordered the buffalo fried shrimp that used to be good but was honestly awful. If I wasn't starving and in a time crunch I would have sent it back. Overall I think The Shelter is not what it used to be and I won't be going back. It used to be a fun spot with pretty decent bar food but it fell flat today. Which I possibly could have excused if it had been busy but it wasn't it was dead. The prices are a bit high for the quality you're getting.
