Expert notes

  • The restaurant's decor is modern and chic, yet still pays homage to the historic late 19th-century home that it inhabits. The open kitchen features a rustic wall of firewood to fuel the wood-fired oven, and a large chalkboard lists the artisanal products currently being used in the kitchen. Classics such as South Carolina Shrimp and Choppee Okra Stew with Carolina Gold Rice and Flowering Basil and Southern Fried Chicken Skins with Pimento Cheese "Ranch" and Scallions sit alongside newer creations like Carolina Gold Crab Rice with Benton's Bacon, Tomato Jam, and Crab Roe. The restaurant's atmosphere is both casual and refined, evoking the slower pace and grand traditions of Charleston life. The restaurant is famous for its constantly changing menu. Chef Sean Brock is constantly experimenting with new ingredients and techniques, so each visit to Husk is a unique experience. The restaurant also has an extensive wine list and creative cocktails
