Wonderful Experience
The restaurant was very cozy, romantically lit with soft music playing in the background. The wait staff was fantastic - prompt, quick to refill drinks and answered our questions (we even found out that our picture might be in Gourmet Magazine in May!) The food was WONDERFUL.    [10 Mar 2003 10:25:14]

Incredible!!!
My dinning experience at The Old Post Office was an incredible experience. I had been told it was good. It surpassed all my expectations. Who expected such a superior restaurant in such a rural area? One of the best restaurants anywhere in the country in my oppinion.    [04 Jul 2003 17:43:43]

The Old Post Office Is Great!
The Old Post Office IS Great! I grew up in Edisto, SC and have been there many times! A favorite of mine is the Shrimp and Grits and of course the salads are amazing! David Greset owns it well I'm not sure how to spell his name!    [24 Aug 2004 17:14:18]

What happened to the lowcountry charm
I have eaten at this restaurant several times over the past few years and each time the quality and value just seems to slide away like the morning tide. The fine sandy beach has turned into smelly pluff mud. I like my shrimp pink and tender, not frozen and icy.....    [05 Feb 2005 20:51:36]

Old Post Office -
The quality and service is really starting to slide. Unfortunate indeed!

Prices are high and the food is average for these type dishes.

Recommendation, go to Paula Dean's in SAV and sample how things are suppose to be done.    [14 Oct 2006 12:02:05]
