This is a small seafood market but has a good selection of fresh seafood…read more My mom lives in the area and comes here often to buy fresh seafood. She and I have bought brim, oysters, crab and shrimp. On our most recent trip it was local shrimp to make a gumbo. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, prices are decent and the selection good. There's always a line of people looking for the freshest selection at opening , which says a lot about the market. If I lived here, this would be my go-to seafood market.

You can always tell of a popular and high-quality seafood market by the smell when you walk in…read more Such as the case with H&J Seafood in Goose Creek. To be honest I wasn't hunting for fresh fish, rather I was making Jambalaya and I was craving Boudin to go with it. I called ahead to make sure they had some and the employee was very nice and while they offer many varieties, I wanted pork and rice. They took my name on Friday ensuring it would be available on Monday, which it was. Upon entering the none assuming establishment which I wasn't anticipating it in a strip mall, not that it's an issue as it's a safe area, but I was expecting a free standing establishment for some reason. The two people in there were very nice and quick to greet me. It took a minute for my eyes to lift up from the display case stuffed full of a plethora of seafood. To be honest I last lived in Charleston in 2000 and spent the rest of my life in Kansas City and Austin. Fresh seafood, especially from a dedicate monger was hard to find so it was a reestablishing my roots. H&J has not only the freshest seafood available this far inland, but plenty of cooking accessories including spices, sauces and accompaniments for all your needs. Back to the display case, blue shell crabs, oysters, clams, shrimp, scallops and more fish than I can label were all wonderfully presented as if it was a snapshot in time of the best they had to offer. If only my menu had planned for this, I would have indulged in breaking my wallet. Alas, I told the nice young lady I was the guy who called in the boudin, which she indicated to look behind me. In the free-standing fridges, I grabbed my prize while I pondered some of their other bounty. Focus...I had to maintain focus! To give a short review on the boudin, it sucked. This is a subjective point, one that I compare with many other versions I've gotten from Louisiana companies that specialize in Cajun Boudin. First there was some off-putting spice in it one that struck me odd. I texture was ok but I didn't like it. Again, I don't hold this against H&J b/c first it's a subjective matter and second it was packaged and shipped in. To wrap up, I've found my fish monger and I will be going back. I know writing a review of a seafood market while only purchasing a pork product seems disingenuous, I grew up in Charleston and was a chef, one can "smell out" frauds and this isn't a subpar place. The people are nice, the seafood fresh and the quality is the best you get unless you know someone with a boat. Drop on by if you need any sort of seafood products!

We came here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon and had a wonderful experience. We're new to the area, and our server was very helpful in giving us information about Summerville and its surrounding neighborhoods. The food was excellent. Everyone's fish was cooked perfectly; flaky and delicious. It tasted fresh and like how all fish should taste. I loved every bite. I also liked that they served the tartar and cocktail sauces in squeeze bottles. We tried the Flounder Po Boy Sandwich, fried, the Grouper Bites, and a Scallop Po Boy Sandwich, grilled. Everything was so good, although I think getting those scallops blackened would have brought the sandwich up another level. Still, it tasted great. Usually, I'm not a fan of seasoned fries, but these were addictive. A charming little shack of a restaurant! We will surely be returning!

An Incredible Small Business Serving Authentic Geechie-Style Cooking…read moreGeechie Garlic Crabs & Seafood - 1286 Yeamans Hall Rd, Hanahan, SC I had the wonderful pleasure of visiting Geechie Garlic Crabs & Seafood this week, and I couldn't be happier that the locals recommended it. Since I'm spending a few weeks in South Carolina, I've been searching for the real gems of the Charleston area -- and this place is absolutely one of them. Located in the shopping center off Sellers Rd / Yeamans Hall Rd next to the Piggly Wiggly, the restaurant feels like a true neighborhood spot. As soon as I stepped in, I was greeted by Miss Krystal, who was warm, welcoming, and full of great suggestions. My mouth was already watering just from seeing the menu in person after browsing pictures online. Inside, the restaurant was very clean, had great music playing, and even had a pleasant, inviting fragrance in the air. The whole vibe felt comfortable, open, and friendly -- exactly what you want when you're checking out a local small business built on pride and community roots. I ordered a plate with fried whiting, fried shrimp, crab rice, garlic broccoli, and six garlic honey wings because I wanted to sample a little bit of everything and see what the Geechie chef was working with. Everything was excellent: The garlic honey wings were cooked perfectly, juicy, and coated in a sauce that hit every note -- sweet, savory, and full of flavor. The fried whiting was seasoned well, fried to perfection, and the breading was on point. The shrimp were fresh, juicy, and tasted great. But the biggest surprise for me was the crab rice and garlic broccoli -- WOW. Both were first-time experiences for me, and the flavors were unlike anything I've had before. Unique, rich, and absolutely delicious. You can tell this place is built on love, hard work, and Amazing Geechie-style cooking -- the kind of authentic coastal flavor that you just can't fake. Nothing here tastes rushed or generic. Everything tastes handcrafted, intentional, and rooted in real culinary skill. Small businesses like this deserve all the support they can get. Your dollar stays in the community, and you're supporting people who genuinely care about the food they serve and the customers they welcome. Miss Krystal and the staff made me feel like family, not just another order. I will definitely be returning before I head back to Texas. I'm already planning to try the fried salmon and fried oysters, and I'm sure they'll be amazing too. If you're a seafood lover in the Charleston or Hanahan area -- or even just passing through -- do yourself a favor and stop by Geechie Garlic Crabs & Seafood. It's clean, friendly, and full of the kind of flavor you can only find in a small business that takes pride in its craft. This is a true local gem, and it deserves to be celebrated.

Traveling for work and was looking for good New Orleans cooking, I found it here…read more I stopped for lunch, got hear right as the doors opened and the place was full by the time we got our drinks, good sign. Service was friendly and attentive, good atmosphere. The food only topped off the good first impression. For appetizers we got gator bites ( seasoning was so good they didn't even need sauce) second was the Andui and shrimp Mac & Cheese (amazing) I could have just eaten these and been satisfied. The shrimp and crayfish porboy was large and tasted so good, man the seasoning on the fries was so good. The batter on the fish was amazing as well. We left with food to spare and already planning on what we will get next time we're in town. And only 15min from the airport. Great job Lola!!

LOLA does crawfish boils on Tuesdays, and we went specifically for that. They offer a few different…read moreoptions--$17.99 for one pound, around the mid-$20s for two pounds (don't remember exact), and $39 for three pounds. The crawfish was cooked well and had great flavor. The only thing we noticed was they were a bit juicy--we think they may not have soaked in the boil as long, which usually helps absorb more flavor. My husband really enjoyed them (this trip was mostly for him!), but they were a little spicy for me. I ended up getting a Caesar salad with fried crawfish tails instead, and it was huge--I only made it through about half. We also got margaritas during happy hour--both were really good. I had the lychee margarita, and my husband got the mango with a Cajun rim. Service was very good--our waiter was attentive and friendly. The only small downside was that we did feel a little rushed. It does say on the menu that they ask guests not to stay longer than 1.5 hours, so just something to keep in mind. They are pet-friendly, and we sat outside. There was plenty of outdoor seating, and the tables had umbrellas, which was nice. The only other thing we weren't thrilled about was the credit card surcharge--it was around 3-3.5%, which feels a bit high, especially since most people don't carry cash anymore. Overall, a great spot--especially if you're a crawfish fan!

I went here last night on a whim since my kids weren't with me this weekend (my son doesn't care for seafood). I had the Charleston seafood steamed pot and added sausage. Staff was friendly and good came out fast! Everything tasted fine too. Maybe it's just that I was there my myself, and every other time I go to the one in Folly I have been with my girlfriend or friends or my kids, or the lack of a live band, and there is something just FUN about sitting around a big pot of steaming shellfish peeling shrimp and cracking crabs and prying oysters open, or maybe I was just worn out by the week and in a little slump from some personal stuff, or being inside in the winter instead of outside when it's nicer, but I just didn't feel the same "this is really nice" that I get in Folly. All the same the food was just as good, service was good, and it's nice to have a seafood option right by my house that isn't a big hassle to get to. J.Ja

It was a party of about 30 and our server, runners, and kitchen staff were all fantastic! She used their handheld POS to place all of our drink, appetizers, and dinners and everything came out perfect. I got the salmon off the specials menu and picked collards and cheesy grits as my sides. The salmon was cooked perfectly and was a gigantic piece that I brought home and had leftovers with numerous times. As for the sides. The collards needed more vinegar which I easily fixed when I reheated them at home. And the grits tasted like water. So I also reheated them with milk and butter and was able to bring them to life at home too. I tried the buffalo shrimp and hush puppies. I would go back and order those two things and be 100% satisfied! With large parties splitting checks can be a process, but luckily the birthday girls husband picked up the tab for everyone and we were on our way, Full and Happy!!
