JC Seafood (formerly Simply Seafood)

Those who know me know I'm a bit of a foodie. I love to cook and love to find local places to eat when traveling. To be clear I've had boils up and down the gulf coast but never in South Carolina. Being such a lover of the gulf it is hard for me to say that this boil beat anything I've ever had but it did and did so by miles. Generous portions and everything cooked to perfection. And while the shrimp were amazing the potatoes definitely stole the show, sucking up all that garlic and butter goodness. This is not necessarily a restaurant that one might be used to but the picnic tables under the live oaks are just fine by me. Found this place on a whim but definitely will be back. If you want fresh seafood that is simply delicious do yourselves a favor and stop on by, you won't be disappo

JC Seafood is both a seafood market and restaurant. Tons of fresh fish, shrimp, crab legs, scallops, oysters, etc. I ordered the flounder basket for around $12. Two huge pieces of fried flounder with hushpuppies on the side (tartar sauce included). Everything was on the greasy side, but tasty as heck and fulfilled my fish craving. I was able to enjoy my meal in the back on a picnic bench under some gnarly trees. - Only downside: my fiance mentioned the bathroom was run down ragged and contemplated avoiding it haha. Still, I'm not there for the bathroom - Food & Service were on point

After a day at the beach, we wanted a laid back seafood shack! JC Seafood had excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. The fried okra was the best we’d ever had and the shrimp was excellent. The scallops were iffy-I am not sure if they were 100% scallops (may have had some filler which was disappointing but I am NOT positive). The owner was incredibly friendly and efficient as it was a busy day! There is not indoor dining but there are a few picnic tables if you’d like to eat outdoors. I believe many people order carryout.

Joe Cheddar, like the cheese. What a wonderful man, and what a wonderful place. Coming from the Caribbean it has been hard to find simple, fresh sea food and fish to enjoy and this place immediately became our favorite across de Low Country. You go there for the food and the attention, nothing else is needed.

Do not miss this place! If you love hole in the walls - this is what you live for! He made me a custom crab cake sandwich with no peppers. Everything my family ordered was fresh and incredible. Picnic tables under huge SC live oaks was a true SC coastal moment. We came for lunch and will go to beach and come for dinner before traveling home to Columbia. DO NOT MISS THIS PLACE.
