Description



Located near the tomb of Thomas Hayward who signed the Declaration of Independence for South Carolina, this restaurant is located in an area called Old House. Chef Frank Crutchfield learned to cook under Paul Prodhome in New Orleans. The restaurant is nested under 200 year live oaks and on the marsh.

Features a New Orleans menu, Smoked NY strip steaks to smoked salmon, all done in house. But not everything is smoked, fresh seafood and eight to ten Specials are run every day, and change daily. Prices range from $9.99-21.99 with a full wine list to go with the food.

Make the stop. A hidden treasure.
My wife and I stopped here on drive home from Hilton Head. We had a great meal and even joked with the chef about real creole/cajun food vs. the Emeril-ization of the world. This guy can cook and his menu is so diverse. I had the shrimp creole in eggplant pirouge which was full of large shrimp in a nicely seasoned sauce and the eggplant boat was crispy and tender at same time. My wife had the crawfish ettoufe. Both entrees and our appetizers were perfect. Make the stop. You won't be disappointed.    [19 Feb 2003 17:09:27]

Great menu - the Cajun food is authentic and superb
Ditto the previous review. My wife and I try to eat there every time we're near Beaufort. I'm from Louisiana and it's like a taste of home.    [01 Jun 2005 11:44:07]

Superb Low Country Food
My wife, friends and I look forward to each and every meal that Frank treats us to whenever we're at his wonderful restaurant. The easy going atmosphere and outstanding dishes make eating there a treat to be savored.    [27 Nov 2006 18:34:43]
