“ Really really fresh seafood. Fresh chucked oysters were probably the best we’ve had in Charleston. Many varieties and the workers were nice to explain what they knew about all the seafood. Scallops po-boy was. amazing. We expected the small bay scallops like most places use but we got huge scallops with a great sauce and slaw. ”
“ Came in for some takeaway lunch. Ordered the fried scallop po boy and got a few things from their fridge - shrimp, chowder, Cole slaw. Love that they sell wine as well, got a bottle of orange wine. The food was delicious. Space is super cute. Service is friendly! ”
“ Multiple types of regional oysters, sashimi, ceviche, shellfish and fish. Sparkling fresh, prepped beautifully. We had a dozen oyster, stone crab, crudo, purple cabbage slaw, coconut rice and homemade Cajun flavoured potato chips. 10/10 for all. I drank Gruner and he drank lager, while listening to Steely Dan and the Dead. Wish this place was in Houston. ”
“ Super chill casual spot with great food! Parking was easy. We had the tuna crudo, house oysters, smoked salmon spread, shrimp Cocktail and veggie soup were amazing! ”
“ CudaCo Seafood House is an absolute hidden gem in Charleston! I’ve been living here for 2.5 years, and I honestly can’t believe this was my very first visit. The atmosphere has a relaxed, coastal vibe that makes it a great spot to enjoy fresh seafood. I ordered the raw oysters, cooked crab, and fried calamari, and everything was absolutely amazing. The oysters were super fresh with that perfect briny flavor, the crab was tender, sweet, and full of rich taste, and the fried calamari was light, crispy, and perfectly seasoned—not greasy at all. You can really tell they take pride in the freshness and quality of their seafood. It’s rare to find a place that hits all the marks when it comes to flavor, portion, and presentation. I’m honestly kicking myself for not coming here sooner, but I’ll definitely be back again soon. This is a must-visit for any seafood lover in Charleston—no question about it! ”
“ CudaCo Seafood House is awesome! We are visiting while my wife’s father is in the hospital here. While looking for local seafood online, we stumbled into this place on Reddit. We have had a lot of seafood in our life and this is by far one of the best places. The food is shockingly amazing especially for primarily being a seafood market. Tomorrow is our anniversary and if we weren’t looking for a more sit down type place, we would come here! It’s that good! Please keep up the good work and supplying more and more local fish! It’s great because you can pick out the fish you want, they season it, cook it fresh and serve it shortly after! I had a fresh blackened snapper fillet. My wife had a dozen local fresh fried shrimp. lol she told me to include the picture with the ketchup instead of the other sauce. Which the sauce was awesome as well. Thanks again CudaCo. Seafood House you guys sure made a memorable experience and we will tell everyone we know from Anderson who visits Charleston to visit! ”
“ As a group visiting from the north, we had no real experience with how to go about ordering food at a place like this, but the lady at the counter was extremely nice and explained the whole operation. I ended up with the Scallops PO Boy and the scallops just melted in my mouth. Everything in the case looked extremely fresh and I believe everything they claim about quality on the website. There is limited indoor seating, however it wasn't too smelly from the fish or anything and it was cool on a hot day. Outside they have a small picnic area by a creek that had the most spectacular evening sun view. I highly recommend anyone visiting to check this place out for the fresh and sustainable, casual, and cost effective seafood experience. ”
“ Will be coming back!!! The place was fresh and the food was on point Grilled Snapper was the star I was let down by the taste of the mussels but may be the season. It was quite expensive but worth for a nice launch on the weekend. ”
