The only local item at that house of swill is the cluster oysters they get from Mangione in Beafort. They pass off Basa / Panga as “Island fish” and tell people it is groupers cousin. Their grouper and mahi are frozen imports all of thier crabmeat is import.
Some of those places listed made me laugh!
Places that I know use local / domestic and observe truth in menu
Husk, Glass Onion, Fleet Landing, Amen Street, Lucca, Red Drum,FIG, Carters Kitchen, SNOB, Langdons, Mcrady’s, Cypress, Hanks, Blossom, Magnolias, Tristan, Ansons, Saltus Grill (Beaufort). Peninsula Grill, Charleston place, Bambu…there are plenty more, just ask questions!
