One of my favorite places on Folly Beach. With ocean views and a nice breeze, the rooftop is where it's at! My husband and I were able to snag seats at the bar on the rooftop on a Sunday afternoon while live music was playing. We ordered hushpuppies, spicy tuna rolls and the peel & eat shrimp. All were great but the shrimp was my favorite! They were served warm, easy to peel and were well-seasoned with excellent flavor. We also had frozen slushie daiquiris that were perfect on a hot summer day. I would definitely recommend checking this place out! :) read more

Food: we had nachos. Pretty good. Wedge salad was tasty. Sushi we had two different types both amazing. I think lobster roll and crap can't remember the other. Good though. Service: absolutely amazing. Everyone was great and hopping. Not a big fan of their mixed drinks. We had 5 people that tried two different rounds and nothing really was a show stopper. Ambiance: ok close to beach but not. There was a lot of construction going on when we were there but still ok. Good place to drop in for lunch read more

The only good thing about this place is the rooftop bar. It's a wonderful view. This was our first time there and it was disappointing. My boyfriend ordered a coors light and I ordered a virgin piña colada since I don't drink alcohol. On the menu, an alcoholic piña colada was $11. Since mine didn't have any alcohol, I assumed it would be around $6 or so. Nope. Still had to pay $11 for a frozen drink I couldn't even finish because the frozen ice chips in it weren't blended enough. The picture I have attached is what my drink looked like when I was leaving. Half of it was ice. I paid $11 for barely half a cup of piña colada. The blue on the cup is just to show it's cold. When I brought this up with the waitress she didn't seem very concerned - more like oh well. I won't ever be coming back here. read more

Catch 23 - Seafood Near Me - Folly Beach, South Carolina

If there's one thing taken away from this review...get the hush puppy basket! We even gotten a second one from how good they were. Fish tacos and sushi did not disappoint! Very flavorful and fresh. We enjoyed the view from the rooftop as the sun was setting. Our drinks were also very good. The spritz is perfect for a light summer drink. Our service was kind but a bit scattered. We were confused when we arrived as someone said we needed to visit the host while others said it was first come first serve. Once it was all figured out, we were seated and happy. Would go again and highly recommend! read more

Shrimp tacos and hush puppies were great! Most shrimp tacos come with some form of yum yum sauce, which I don't like. These come with a proper mango habanero sauce! However, the BEST part of our dinner was John, the bartender. Great interaction and conversation! read more

We visited Folly Beach today before leaving to go home. We chose to have dinner on Folly Beach and today we chose catch 23 because it had the option of Sushi as well. We browse their menu, which is set up outside, very convenient. The reason I'm giving four stars is because their process seem a little bit over the top for a portion as well as what they're serving. Me and my two grands went inside we were seated immediately. We did ask to be just inside and not up top, which I'm assuming is very nice as well if you want to watch your sunset and just have a good view. Our Server was very sweet and helpful, answered all my questions and was honest in her own opinions. I always appreciate when people give me honest feedback, especially when it comes to me spending my money. My granddaughter had. The Charleston roll and she did really enjoy that it's very similar to one she has back home. The other grand had kids tenders, which seemed to be in-house hand breaded with fries. They were very good and fresh. Not too thick on the breading I could tell they were not frozen. I had crispy shrimp tacos, which I asked for the habanero sauce on the side, thank goodness. It is a very good tasting sauce, but it does have quite the kick and I'm glad she warned me of that. You do not get a side with those three tacos.. we all had water which is typical for us. The ambience was nice. It wasn't too loud. They did have the FIFA World Cup playing on the TVs. Our food came out rather quickly. We eight and we're on our way. I'd probably dine here again, but wish their prices weren't so much. read more

Do not eat here! After seeing the owner's response to my Google review, I felt it was important to share my experience on here as well. The food quality was extremely disappointing--from the wilted iceberg lettuce, tasteless chicken, and cold, undercooked tortillas to the overall lack of flavor, the meal was genuinely inedible. We barely touched our food, left hungry, and both felt sick afterward. To make matters worse, the owner's response was dismissive and unapologetic rather than taking honest feedback as an opportunity to improve. It is unfortunate to see a business owner become defensive rather than acknowledge concerns and strive for better food quality and a better overall experience. Based on both the meal and the way our feedback was handled, we would not return or recommend this restaurant. read more

Food was good. Party of 7 so we had quite a variety-sushi, nachos, tacos, blackened chicken pasta. Everything very tasty. Drinks were also good. Server was very helpful and quite nice. Didn't go up to the rooftop bar but will later this week read more

My boys and I dined here on Sunday evening and Anthony was our server. Highly recommend!!!! We were promptly greeted and seated upon our arrival. We were seated at table close to the entry/exit point of the kitchen. The table was fine but I felt we were in the way. Our server, Anthony, was top notch!!!!! He was so fast, friendly, always a step ahead. We didn't have to ask for refills, he already had them coming before we could even mention. Everything we could need, he already thought of! I can't stress enough how much he made our "last night of vacation dinner" such a wonderful time! Between the three of us we had: Two buckets of crab legs (does not come with potatoes/corn) Side Caesar salad Pretzel bites with beer cheese Kids fried shrimp with fries And a side of fries (comes in a basket-perfect for sharing) Everything was delicious & we left very full! We do not eat sushi, but I saw several plates/platters come out and it all looked great! We look forward to returning on our next trip. read more

Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday and they let us customize a platter of sushi - WAS AMAZING!! Drinks were great - the bartender recommendations were on point. They gave us a nice table on the 2nd floor, and it's was like we had a private room- fortunately it was a weeknight and they could do that for us. Overall it was a wonderful evening! Thank you to our server Chloe, too!! Couldn't have been better! read more

Catch 23 - Sushi at Catch 23 - Seafood Near Me - Folly Beach, South Carolina

Our group stopped by for lunch today while visiting Folly, and we couldn't have picked a better spot. From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and the service was fantastic - super friendly and impressively quick. We decided to keep it light and ordered a bunch of appetizers to share after our dolphin tour. Everything came out fresh and hit the spot. I got the "Folly Lover" sushi roll, which was absolutely delicious - perfectly rolled and full of flavor. A lot of folks in our group went for the frozen drinks that came in fun souvenir cups, and everyone was raving about them. We also shared plates of fried calamari and chicken nachos. Both were packed with flavor and great for passing around the table. The atmosphere was laid-back and exactly what you'd want after a morning out on the water. I'd definitely come back here next time we're in the area - it's a perfect spot to relax, grab some tasty bites, and enjoy the Folly vibe. read more

Catch 23 - Folly Lover Sushi Roll - Seafood Near Me - Folly Beach, South Carolina

Great meal! Wonderful service and cool vibes inside. Full bar is a nice feature as well.

Menu is deceiving. Seafood platter is EVERYTHING fried. Was expecting steamed, peel and eat shrimp. Waitress just said "yeah a lot of people get confused by it". Thanks, would have been nice to know BEFORE you brought me a plate full of fried, greasy breading. Ambiance: this place is LOUD. We were expecting a little more upscale based on the appearance and price, but this is just a loud, greasy spoon cloaked in fresh paint. Won't be going back. Stick with Rita's across the street. Much better. read more

Been here 5-6 times over the past 8 months and blown away with how consistently good the food and service is. Before the switch over snapper jacks food quality had gone down significantly but now is one of my favorites on Folly! Mahi sandwich and tacos always fresh and delicious. Sushi back to very good like it was several years ago. Highly recommend. Easy going casual sports bar atmosphere downtown stairs or cool rooftop upstairs. read more

We came in for a drink and some apps. Both of us got margaritas. The cup was filled to the brim with ice and they tasted like there was zero alcohol in them. Then we got peel and eat shrimp. The shrimp tasted great, but the price felt like a ripoff. We ended up heading out and not staying to order more like we wanted to. Our server was very kind, but seemed like she may have been under the influence. The whole experience felt kind of chaotic. The tables were all scuffed up and appeared dirty. Turning tables super fast with no cleaning in between. I'd checkout somewhere else if you're in the area. read more

Service was slow. Too many people packed into a small space so they could maximize tables. The food was horrible. Paid a pretty penny for the blackened mahi meal - took one bite and the fish was like chewing rubber. WILDLY overcooked - it almost tasted frozen and like they reheated it multiple times. The rice tasted like plain microwaveable rice. Another person also got the blackened mahi and their fish was no better, so it was not a fluke. Would not recommend for the price, quality, or atmosphere. read more

Stopped by for the variety this restaurant had and it ended up being just okay. Their happy hour didn't really include much, no food, only like a dollar off certain beers so not great in that aspect. The burger was on special when we went and I got two rolls, spicy shrimp roll and the SC crunch roll, definitely preferred the crunch roll. Service was good but there also wasn't that many people in there either. read more

Good service from Hannah, transplant from Atlanta. Excellent Bloody Mary Great view of ocean and more, even on a foggy day. They haven't quite got their kitchen humming yet.... We had to cancel our order calamari or continue to wait and order another round of cocktails... Too early in the day for that and still needed to bike ride the 2 miles home. They were nice about it. Be patient and look around, it's beautiful to gaze upon. read more

Ordered the chicken nachos and unfortunately the chicken was tasteless, the cheese used looked like it came out of a bag and was not even melted. When we mentioned this to our waitress we were told that there were 4 new chefs in the kitchen and they were still learning how to prepare the food and unfortunately no remedy was offered. Paid full price and left still hungry with our plates full. Not acceptable. read more

I have been a few times and have always loved Catch 23 since they opened! Great spot to grab food before or after you head to the beach. The rooftop is a great spot to see the sunset with a view of the water. All of their Sushi is delicious, but I've also tried the Folly Burger and recommend it with their special sauce on the side as well. Highly recommend! read more

Rude bartender(Jazz) was very rude had an attitude because I gave back coleslaw that had no mayonnaise and wanted a salad instead. Spoke with manager to n (David) avail it took over an hour for sushi and calamari that we ordered as well the bartender was named Jazz Spoke to the manager and he was not helpful at all I ended up eating a Side salad with with nothing else...

Great location. Service could have been better. The crabby bucket is alright but I would recommend just going for the legs ; not too much meat in them. Their drinks were good but little alcohol and overpriced for what it was. You pay for location. Boyfriend chicken pasta was pretty good. Again just average read more

Skip the food, stick to drinks and stunning views on the rooftop. Not enough staff to serve patrons. I had high hopes for this establishment as their socials convey a cute beach vibe with colorful dishes and fresh sushi. Reality...Very busy and buzzing inside. Staff was friendly and but didn't have time to check in or be attentive to tables. Took 45 minutes to take food order after ordering drinks. We simplified our orders as time went on as we had little faith that food would come out fresh and on time. I got the burger and soda deal. My friend also got this and we asked multiple times for beverages that never arrived. Eventually we gave up and enjoyed the wine and folly vice. The folly vice was delicious while the burger was very meh. It gave freezer smash patty that I can make at home. Nothing special. read more

Our last night at FB. Decided on Catch 23. Beautiful decor inside. We had the blackened chicken pasta, salmon, caesar salad, chicken sandwich, and appetizers. All delicious. A Super Cool waitress named Summer took excellent care of our table. Summer provided five star service throughout the meal. Our order was correct, she frequented the table often, and did it all with a beautiful smile and great attitude. We even had several Managers check on our table periodically to insure our dinner was great. Thanks! read more

Catch 23 - Blackened Chicken Pasta. - Seafood Near Me - Folly Beach, South Carolina

First of all, you come inside this place and feel the toxic environment. Secondly, customer service is horrible! We had a bartender that gave us attitude for wanting to dine in instead of taking out. The food was alright. We got the shrimp tacos and the shrimp appetizer. The tacos could have more toppings on it, it felt like I was eating a tortilla alone. And the appetizer could use more seasoning. Definitely not worth for what I payed. read more

Well, this didn't go well. I'm not from the area, but judging by number and date of reviews, this is a new establishment. They gots some work to do! We stopped in craving some fish and chips. I'm partial to beer batter and the server assured me they were. The fish itself is cod. We also got a couple sushi rolls, hush puppies, and an order of snow crab along with some drinks. I'd say the restaurant and bar was moderately busy. We didn't have to wait for a table on a weeknight during spring break. It took a looooong time for the drinks to show up -- close to 15 minutes. They were fine. The food showed up a little after. When it did, sadness ensued. I knew when the fish & chips was put in front of me that I'd been had: this was not beer batter. Sigh. No matter, let's try it out... My first attempt to cut the fish with my fork barely worked. The batter was hard as a rock, and the fish inside was stringy. Obviously, seriously overcooked. It was completely inedible. I rarely send food back, but this was an exception. The server took it back to the kitchen where it was agreed this was a disaster. She apologized and comped it, which was nice. The hush puppies were flavorless bread balls. My friend who ordered the snow crab had to go at it like an animal since no crab crackers were provided. What a mess! We couldn't believe first of all that they forgot to bring them, and then couldn't locate a set anywhere in the restaurant. Umm... you guys are serving crab. Wtf? Fortunately, being from the northeast, she was able to shrug it off and get it in her mouth regardless. The sushi was probably the best part of the meal. We had two rolls: spicy tuna and something else I can't remember. They were both extremely heavy on the mayo. A real sushi chef would be horrified. It seemed very Americanized. But, the fish itself wasn't bad and we worked our way through it. Overall this was a big miss. We did like the vibe and our server, though a bit busy and overwhelmed, did her best to make sure we had a good time. Hope they can turn this place around. read more

This is a pretty nice upgrade from Snapper Jacks. The bartenders were friendly and attentive, we had a great experience! They have sushi. It is somewhat elusive, as they don't give you a sushi menu or have it online. It does exist though, and I'll post a pic of it since you can't find it anywhere else. We had the Tobago Roll and it was honestly much better than I expected it to be. I'd say it was on par with any of the really good sushi rolls I've had. It's much better than it should be for sushi on Folly Beach. You can tell the chef takes pride in the rolls and it shows. The sauces were all delicious, worked well with each other and the fish. Very nice execution. My only complaint (other than parking because, well, Folly...) is the draft beer list is only visible on a monitor in the corner that cycles through several other screens. It's not visible long enough to read it so you have to try and snap a picture. It should be on its own monitor or post it to Untappd, etc. read more

First, our server was very polite and thanked us for our patience multiple times. In all honesty, he was amazing, but management set him up for failure. We arrived at Catch 23 and ordered drinks and an appetizer. As our server brought out our drinks he said that he put the appetizer in, but the kitchen needed a break, and we had to hold off on ordering. I asked if we could place our order and that they process it when they could and he said no. Ok, fine, we enjoyed the company (we are on vacation) and the game. When he came back and allowed us to place our order and as he was entering them he was telling us that those items were now out of stock. Many other things besides the burgers were sold out: crab legs, hush puppies, and one other thing I can't recall- it was a side but all things we ordered or was in an order we not available. In the meantime, a table that sat down after us and after we were told multiple times the kitchen was almost ready to take orders received an entire food order- we were both a party of 6. In all honesty, our server was so nice and attentive and he clearly followed what he was told and if it were not for him the experience would have been horrible. The food was basic fried bar food, which was disappointing when you planned on crab legs. I have never been to a restaurant who said you can't place an order right now because we can't handle it. It was a Sunday night and many tables were open- it certainly was not busy when we came in. read more

Our party of 6 was accommodated quickly to a table near the kitchen. The place was wide open so we had lots of options. Service was very quick. We all ordered drinks and food at the same time. The food was good but not great. I think everyone was focused on the attractive waiter coming in and out of the kitchen haha. I had shrimp tacos that were pathetically skimpy on the shrimp. Like they literally diced 2 shrimp and spread them over tortillas. Pretty pathetic. Someone else ordered a sushi roll that was pretty good though. read more

Loved the food at this spot just off Folly Beach. Good ambience and plenty of room to relax. Server in training didn't miss a beat. Good apps, great boil, nothing flashy just well executed across the board. A welcome respite from the norm and overhyped beach restaurants. Will visit again if we make it back to the area! read more

Service was ok but food was not very good. Appetizers - Chicken nachos, the chips were stale, chicken had zero taste. Meal - Chicken pasta - presentation was good and thats about it. The chicken had no flavor , pasta would have been better if they would have added more sauce, which was good. The entire meal lacked seasoning and sauce. Not sure if they have a new cook but we have eaten here before and it was not this bad. I took the leftovers home added Cajun seasoning and Alfredo sauce and it tasted 10x better. read more

Fairly typical beachy vibes restaurant. Cocktails were fair. I had a top shelf margarita and it tastes fine but seemed like something was off. Typical burgers and fries food on the menu but also sushi. While most of the food is just ok, the sushi is delicious!!! Fresh ingredients and well made. Lots of screens for sports fans to pop in and watch their team. Service was fine; it was a busy night for a Monday and they didn't have a hostess so it took a minute to get seated. read more

Food is mid which is to be expected on folly. Thai chilli wings the flavor was good but there was barely any meat on the bones.

This place will only survive on one trip tourist. We sat down at the bar and were not approached for right at ten minutes. The bartender was complaining to another bartender that she was "dealing with it and remember it was her first day". Super slow service. Food menu is all over the place. We ordered a House Salad with a grilled chicken breast. Salad showed up without the chicken. We ordered a Spicy Tuna Sushi and a Spicy Salmon. Not sure what fish they were made out of but they were the same roll. They had the roll up doors/windows open and the front door wide open. It was so windy that napkins were blowing all over the place not to mention how loud it was. Do yourself a favor, go somewhere else. There are way better places on Folly Beach to eat. read more

I'm not sure what's happening in South Carolina, but the overall quality of food and service across Mount Pleasant, Charleston, Johns island Kiawah Island and Now Folly Beach has been consistently disappointing. Too many restaurants seem poorly managed, with food that lacks care, consistency, and basic quality. In my opinion, a major part of the problem is the labor pool being hired and the standards being tolerated. Many businesses appear to prioritize filling positions quickly rather than hiring people who take pride in professionalism, cleanliness, customer service, and basic work ethic. The result is service that feels careless and disengaged, which directly affects food quality and the overall dining experience. When nearby areas like Myrtle Beach--long associated with drug problems and poor oversight--feed into the regional workforce, it's not surprising that those issues spill over. Instead of enforcing higher expectations, many establishments seem to accept subpar behavior, questionable presentation, and attitudes that reflect poor judgment and ideological distractions rather than a focus on doing the job well. Employees in Service industry Covered in nasty tattoos Nose and Lip rings Purple hair and filthy looking , it's no Wonder South Carolina and Folly Beach are suffering with lack luster drug addiction looking employees South Carolina has incredible potential, especially in Charleston and the surrounding areas, but the current approach to hiring and management is hurting local businesses. Until restaurants and stores raise their standards for who they employ and how they train them, the food and service will continue to suffer. This was one of the worst places I've ever been An online menu dressed up as a high-quality restaurant and it's actually a sports bar dive bar with bad quality of food read more
