“Got lucky with a last minute reservation and hands down this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. The food was amazing, great ambiance, but the customer service we received from our server was superb! This is definitely a must-try in Charleston.”
“Delicious meal at FIG! The service at FIG is wonderful, shout out to our great waitress, Meredith who gave us recommendations from the menu. The salads and entrees were fabulous and the real star was the sticky sorghum pudding with amaretto ice cream. We will definitely be back the next time we’re in Charleston.”
“Food Is Good, says FIG in Charleston and I couldn’t agree more. This is one of those places where you sit down and immediately trust them with your life. They know everything about fish!They must have magic fishermen! The encrusted flounder was…I don’t know how something could be this good. Perfectly cooked! You know that crunch we’re always chasing in a bite? This is it. FIG quietly serves one of the best seafood meals you’ll have and lets you spiral about it later. I rarely go back to restaurants because I always want to try new ones. This was my 3rd time going to FIG. Let that be the review. Very dark so bring those reading glasses.”
“Lucked into a reservation during SEWE weekend. Bartender and service were great. The standouts were our fish entrees. Both were delucious, but my snowy grouper was my best in memory. Petfectly cooked and seasoned and an interesting preparation. We will be back!”
“I was so hyped for this place since it was featured on Bourdain shows Parts Unknown and No Reservations. I don't think a restaurant gave me this level of disappointment and I cannot recommend it. I guess at that time it used to be good, but for the price - the flavors and proportions feel like a scam and I had much much better food elsewhere. I was very disappointed in the oysters, fish stew and carolina gold rice pudding. The rice pudding I felt was not cooked well enough and the rhubarb in it felt like chewing on sour celery. There was sand in one oyster. The fish stew felt like a cheap soup you'd get at Whole Foods, and the fish and shrimp were overcooked and they only gave a few pieces. None of the food was tasty at all, the only pass was the gnocchi. This is nothing like I had imagined, I paid over $200 and they are so stingy with the food which would actually be okay if the flavor was great but it wasn't there. Service felt rushed and awkward, we had more water in our stomachs than food. The server promised us warm bread and it was brought out 30 minutes later - cold and long after our appetizers were done. I also saved some sauce on the the gnocchi plate to have with the bread but the waiter took the plate away pretty quickly. Do NOT go here, I can only imagine I'd have a similar experience at Husk.”
