Yellowfin tina crudo & beef tar tar
Carolyn H.

Went for the first time and it did not disappoint! Seems to me like a quintessential Charleston restaurant. We were able to get a reservation last minute and so glad we did! The inside is beautiful, the service was attentive. We got the crudo, tar tar, ribeye, skillet corn bread (like a warm hug), cabbage pancake with crab meat, and the scallops. We ordered 3 desserts- all were delicious. The ribeye was perfectly Cooked to our requested temperature, medium rare. Everything was delicious!

SO and I were in Charleston for a few days and dined at Husk, one of Anthony Bourdain's stops. We started with the country ham and yellowfin crudo, both of which provided a variety of flavors and were fun to eat. For entrees, we had the scallops and wreckfish, both of which were perfectly seared and epitomized how seriously this establishment takes its seafood dishes. We probably would have had drinks and dessert if we could have gotten an earlier reservation, but we had an early flight back home the next morning. Bottom line, the food and service were excellent and four stars seems a tad low!

I was pretty underwhelmed by the brunch. I had heard some amazing things about this restaurant and there was nothing really special about the meal. Especially with so many amazing restaurants downtown. Everything was good and the service was good, but nothing stood out to me. I think everyone at our table tried a different brunch dish. I think the deviled eggs were the best dish. I do want to come back and try the dinner menu instead of the brunch menu.

Husk delivers on ambience and service. This cute house style restaurant is stunning. I loved the vibe, and our server was attentive, fun and knowledgeable. Husk was my bday dinner and it would serve as a wonderful spot for special occasions. They gave me a custom printed menu which was such a special touch. We had the Aberdeen Ribeye, collard greens, a ricotta carrot dish, a bottle of red wine, the mint chocolate pie, and strawberry shortcake. What a delicious meal. Let me say, it was well executed and tasteful. The desserts stole the spotlight. No notes. The ribeye was perfectly cooked and a generous portion. The sauce served with it was too sweet for my southwestern taste, but it didn't ruin the dish. The glazed carrots were a brave combination of hot chili crisp honey, rainbow carrots, ricotta and peanuts. It blew me away! The greens had a strong smoke and vinegar flavor -- while good, they left me wanting for a simpler taste. Overall, well done, Husk. I can't wait to return to Charleston and this establishment.

TN Cheddar Pimento Cheese-delicious!

Another delicious meal at Husk. This was my first brunch at Husk and we loved every minute!!! My friends and I went to Husk for brunch close to Christmas time and thank goodness we got there early! It was 2nd Sunday and it got really busy! I had the shrimp and grits and I could not have chosen better. The shrimp were perfectly cooked and the flavors complemented each other well. We started with the deviled eggs and the biscuits-a perfect appetizer! The mimosas were good, but I felt like they overloaded the ice which minimized how much mimosa we actually got to enjoy. Overall, I highly recommend Husk and it's a nice treat for special occasions!

Visited here for the first time this weekend as I saw how Christmassy it was and couldn't resist! And the Christmas decor did NOT disappoint! Was immediately seated at our reservation time and had the most lovely lady as our waitress. Service was amazing and everyone in there is very kind. Food was great, perfect portion sizes and timing of the food was ideal as well. The cornbread with the butter was so light and to die for and was the perfect pair to my pretty heavy pasta I ordered. After dinner we couldn't resist the bar right next door that was also decked out for Christmas. We were quickly seated in the cozy upstairs and had a great class of wine. If you go to Husk, you can't miss the bar! Will totally be back to both Husk establishments.

Fried chicken and biscuit
Meg C.

Southern brunch done right. Everyone at our table loved their dishes, especially the shrimp and grits and fried chicken and biscuits. The grits were creamy, not too heavy and complimented the shrimp perfectly. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, brined well with some subtle rosemary aromatics. Biscuit was fluffy but dense in all the right ways. Bloody Mary mix was seasoned well and let the tomato flavor shine. We also tried the coffee cake and deviled eggs - coffee cake was good and the deviled egg yolk mix was a bit denser than expected. Space is beautiful and we were seated upstairs and on a nice day so the French doors to the balcony porch was open. Service was friendly and prompt. One of our favorite meals of the trip, would return to try dinner!

Husk is still a favorite. We stopped in Charleston and snagged seats at Husk's adjoining bar. The bar (separate building) is as warm and as charming as the dining room. Catfish, collards, and dirty rice--perfect dinners. The Old Fashioneds help. Then--the complimentary lemon meringue was delightful.

Corn ice cream

My wife and I recently went to Husk for a weekend dinner and had a good experience. We first went to Husk's patio and bar while we waited for our reservation, and got the field green salad and the Parker House rolls with pimento cheese and pickles. The pimento cheese with chili crisp and the pickles were the stars- the cheese was rich and creamy with a good flavor kick from the chili crisp, and the pickles were perfectly cured and seasoned. The Parker House rolls and the salad were OK, although unremarkable. The bar overall had a good ambiance, although the lighting was so dim that it was difficult to read our menu and order. Husk has a nice ambiance with low lighting and nice placesettings. Our service was fine, although it did take almost 25 minutes for our first dishes to come out despite the restaurant not being at capacity. I started with the skillet corn bread and was very excited as it was cooked with duck fat (something I've never seen before). However, I couldn't taste the duck fat, the cornbread was dry, it needed more butter, and it didn't pair well with other dishes. I got the chicken-fried rabbit for my main dish. The rabbit was well-cooked but not noteworthy. The gumbo had good flavor but was extremely salty, and the grits could have added more to the dish. This dish also needed more of a fresh vegetable and acid element to cut through the fattiness and heaviness of the gumbo, rabbit, and grits. For dessert, we shared the corn miso ice cream and the apple blondie, both of which were delicious, creamy, and had the right amount of sweetness. I would recommend Husk for a nice dinner in Charleston.

Elvis icebox cake
Michael S.

Right when you walk up to husk, you know it's going to be amazing. This restaurant is inside a plantation home. The host was extremely friendly and so was our server. We started with the tuna tartare and pimento cheese and biscuits with ham. Then we had scallops and the pastrami rubbed beef for dinner. Dessert.......don't sleep on these...omg. The Elvis ice box cake and yes it had bacon bits on it and then the German chocolate cake, which isn't a looker, but tasted amazing. Everything was top notch and you didn't need a knife for the pastrami rubbed beef. The app showstopper was the pimento cheese, biscuits, with ham. My wife doesn't like pimento cheese at all and she would had bathed in that it was so good haha. Absolutely go to this place!

Wood Fired oysters
Melissa C.

- Wood fired oysters 5/5 - my favorite item from everything I got - Seared diver scallops 4/5 - scallop flavor was good, potato & bacon cream at the bottom were ok... - pork ribeye chop 4/5 - flavor was good overall but too many fatty pieces for my liking - cornbread skillet 3/5 - not sure if i'm really a fan of cornbread but it was slightly salty for me Cute spot for dinner if you're in the area. Definitely need a reservation if you go here. Ambiance and service were good, waitress was helpful.

Olga S.

What can I say, absolutely stellar experience tonight at Husks. Lovely ambience, wonderful service by Jeremy and even better food. Not a huge selection of options especially since I don't eat pork. Had to try the chicken liver and mushroom mousse to start the night. Followed by a shared entree of snapper. The flavor combo is just superb on both. Since it was a late evening dinner, we didn't want to over do it with too much food. Wish we could have tried everything! Don't sleep on making reservations well in advance. Well worth what you pa

Stephanie D.

Such a great spot for a nice dinner! We shared the cornbread, chicken liver mousse (my favorite!), salad, carrots and steak - the kids ate every last bit. The staff were friendly and attentive. Would eat here again in a heartbeat if given the opportunity.

Ask the Community - Husk

Do they really included a 20% gratuity on in-dining? I read it on the website afterwards- so I guess I tipped 40% - very deceiving

No, they don't. Nor is it shown as a disclaimer on their menu.

How hot is it in July on the porch for dinner? Resy says they've got fans, but if it's unbearable, would like to know. Thanks!

Hot! Uncomfortable to enjoy a meal. Highly recommended eating indoors

What's the dress code?

You can glam it up or be casual.

Does Husk accept walk ins or are reservations required?

If they have an opening they do accept walk-ins but they tend to be fully booked.

Is this place walker accessible?

Yes it is. I'd recommend calling in advance so they seat you in the rooms more accessible at the door. It's a spacious restaurant with various areas.

Is there a dress code?

Most people dress nicely to enjoy a meal at this restaurant - however I don't believe management specifically states a level of dress in order to dine there.

Do they offer Vegetarian entrees?

I do know their menu changes often. Weekly perhaps. You could probably order a "vegetable platter " and not be disappointed. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

Is there a military discount offered?

We don't know. I researched it on the Net. Came up empty. Best to call them.

Do servers wear masks?

Yes

Is there bar seating for cocktail around 5:00pm?

Yes, but you'll need reservations even for the bar. The bartenders are fabulous!

Is there a kid's menu or kid-friendly options?

No. Not a good place for kids

Is there a tasting menu option and if so, how much does it typically cost?

No, standard a la carte menu.

Would it be okay to bring a newborn and toddler here for dinner? Newborn just sleeps. Toddler roams. Too fancy a place?

Please don't, the roaming is unacceptable in any restaurant, but especially here.

Hoping it's less pricey at lunch. Is there a separate lunch menu?

Yes, the best way to go for a less expensive experience is either lunch or the bar menu. In my opinion one of the best things on their entire menu is their burger, which is also one of the cheapest things--and NOT available on the dinner menu, only… Read more

The vegetarian plate had a wide variety of veggies -- from mashed potatoes, to wilted spinach, asparagus, green beans, and fried tomato's. There were only two medium pieces of fried tomato so I do wish they put more in the plate but oh well. My partner loved his bouillabaisse and apparently it's the southern rendition of a French dish that is one of their most popular dishes. It has lots of seafood in it. The meal also came with complimentary warm bread, which was nice. The pecan pie was very good, but the crust was kind of hard and there were fewer pecans than I'm used to and more caramel. The ambiance is more formal but people were dressed mostly casual (and chic if I might add). Dim lighting and if you don't want as much noise to carry I would ask for seating in the back because it's noticeably louder in the front. Overall the food is very good and prices are not as expensive for the quality. Our server was great!

I ordered the 1/2 honey fried chicken w/ mac & cheese and collard greens. For dessert, we shared pecan pie. The chicken was moist & delicious from being brined and seasoning in the batter. The batter was crunchy, and perfectly applied so you didn't bite into a hunk of just batter. Likewise, the sides were some of the best I had during my trip to SC.

My friend said the tomato pie was really good but it's all cheese and tomatoes. The fried green tomatoes were crispy but needed seasoning. They were incredibly bland. For the main dish she ordered the smash burger and I ordered the fish and grits. She took one bite of the smash burger and sent it back saying it tasted like a frozen burger you'd get at Walmart. The fish and grits were ok. They too were bland and needed salt. A LOT of salt or any other seasoning. The okra, Lima beans and corn that come in this dish also tasted like it came out of a frozen bag. There is no seasoning in this dish whatsoever. Unfortunately this place was a miss and we won't be returning. Also the bathrooms look like a porta potty. You know the cheap plastic that porta potties are made out of? Yeah that's what the stalls are made out of. It looks so cheap and a big contrast from the rest of the restaurant. The staff was nice but they also look like they hate working here.

We were staying at the Meeting House Inn so were able to easily and leisurely walk to lunch and dinner. Service was excellent, true Southern hospitality, and the restaurant is adorable. Food was amazing, each of the four of us loved our dish and tasted each others as well: - shrimp and grits - 5/5, plentiful and plump shrimp with a flavorful sauce over creamy grits. This was not my dish so I only got a taste and next time we go back I'm going to get this for myself! - grilled salmon sald - 5*5, arugula, couscous, dried fruit, pine nuts, feta, lemon shallot vinaigrette (this dressing is so delicoius! I want the recipe!), two of us ordered this one and again, i got a bite and want to order this for myself next time (see the problem here?) The combination of flavors and textures was amazing.

It was solid but not something to write home about (or on Yelp about) - corn muffins - 5*5, i'm pretty sure the corn muffins came as the "bread" for the table and they were so yummy!

We got there just before 6 PM, and although the restaurant was pretty full, they told us they'd try to seat us outside due to our party size. That worked perfectly since they had heaters going. They quoted us a 45-minute wait, but it ended up being closer to 15 minutes -- a great surprise. The service was seriously outstanding. I have zero complaints. Everyone was so personable and attentive. For appetizers, the beef carpaccio was my favorite. For entrées, we ordered the pork chop, tuna, duck, and lamb -- and we all shared bites. Everything was delicious. My pork chop did come out a little dry, but when I mentioned it, our waitress didn't hesitate at all. She immediately took it back and insisted on bringing a new one, making me feel completely comfortable about saying something. While I waited, she brought me a complimentary soup, which was such a thoughtful touch, and the replacement came out quickly. The manager personally brought out the new dish and waited while I cut into it to make sure it was perfect. She even came back later to check again. That level of attention to detail really stood out. To top it off, they brought out dessert and a round of champagne for the table. I wasn't drinking, and they noticed -- so they brought me a mocktail without me even asking. That kind of attentiveness is rare. The inside looked beautiful, and I'd love to sit inside next time to experience the full vibe, but outside was perfect -- not too cold, not windy, and overall just a great atmosphere. Overall, one of the best service experiences I've had in a long time. Highly recommend.

They serve it with a Sprite instead of Ginger Ale, just FYI. For dinner, I of course had to order the She Crab soup. Believe the hype! It was the best She Crab soup I had in Charleston. It was sheer perfection. I ordered the Skillet Chicken Cutlets and my husband had the Braised Beef Short Ribs. His dinner was delicious, the short ribs were so soft and tender and just melted in your mouth. I enjoyed the few bites of his more than my chicken, even though my meal was still good. There was A LOT of corn with my meal, but everything had such a great taste to it. We rounded the dinner off with a piece of Pecan Pie and vanilla ice cream which was very good as well. This restaurant is definitely on the more expensive side so be ready to drop a pretty penny. Overall, it was pretty darn good, and we will probably be back!
