The Wreck of the Richard and Charlene seafood restaurant
is, in our opinion, the best seafood restaurant in the Charleston area, and
Charleston, South Carolina has many extremely good restaurants.
Not only is it the best seafood, Fred Scott, the owner along with his wife, is
the most warm and friendly man you would chance to meet. He warmly greets
you when you enter the restaurant. Fred told us his wife named the
restaurant after a hurricane, when the boat, The Richard and Charlene was left
by the hurricane, wrecked onto their property, the current location of the
restaurant. Portions may be ordered
in either Richard's size (large) or Charlene's size (not as large, but
generous).
To get there from Charleston, take Route 17 across
to Mount Pleasant, swing right onto Coleman Blvd (703), after crossing Shem
Creek, turn right on Live Oak Drive (note 3 foot concrete posts up from ground
as street markers), left on Haddrell Street... curve left... Look for the Wreck
between Wando Seafood Company and Magwood & Sons Seafood. Note, it is
set back off the street with it's large parking lot in front of it (see
photos). Their hours, as of 5/12/2003, are 5:30pm-8:15pm Sun-Thu,
5:30pm-9:30pm Fri-Sat. Serve Beer & Wine, but not on Sunday. Call
843-884-0052
for current hours.
