Nana's Seafood Soul - Charleston

Decided to try something small and locally. Eating looks great. brittaney is the best, she was very helpful. we order the seafood plate, fried lobster and brotpudding.

We spent 4 days in Charleston on our first trip here and ate out every meal. All of the other restaurants, although they offered great ambiance, were very high in price. We found this hole in the wall on our way out of town and all agree we wish we would have found it our first day here. The fresh made from scratch seafood was the best we 've had in years. The portions were unbelievable and this meal cost half of all the others we ate while here. My daughter said the garlic crab legs are the best she 's ever had and we all agree the fried shrimp is second to none. I bet there were 15 shrimp in my daughter 's shrimp entree that also came with a salad and fries for only $11.50. The shrimp were massive, deveined and cooked to perfection. You may want to carry out since this place is very small with only 3 tables and you order from the counter, but how else could food this good be so affordable? We will definitely make this our first stop on any future trip to Charleston!!!

I was a bit disappointed with the garlic butter and crab legs. At $35, I expected more; the shrimp were overcooked and the crab legs hadn’t been cleaned properly before boiling. The garlic butter was also messy, as it had leaked underneath the container, fortunately not spilling before we returned to our hotel. There was a container of sauce, but no salad dressing. On a positive note, the fried shrimp and flounder dinner was quite good, though the portion of fish was rather small. My daughter really enjoyed the lemon fender, and the mac and cheese was delicious. The potato salad was nice, but I would have preferred it to be a bit more flavorful. I had been expecting to find a building that resembled the photos online, but the restaurant is actually located in a suite. I missed it at first and had to make a U-turn to get back.

Delicious! I had the tilapia burger with fries and pineapple tea. Everyone in the restaurant raved about the pineapple tea because it’s so good!

The experience was fantastic! The restaurant was very clean, and even though there was someone at the front register, she handled our order calmly and efficiently. Our food was fresh, just as we had hoped, and it was definitely worth the trip!
