   Very much enjoyed my dinner here with my sisters. It has a lively atmosphere and our server was fantastic. I had the blackened mahi mahi which was seasoned deliciously

   Arrived 15 minutes before our reservation. They were able to seat us immediately. We were greeted by our server not long after and he brought our beverages and took an appetizer order. Within 10 minutes we had our hush puppies, which were a little too crispy and served with honey. Rec: add butter also. Shrimp and grits came right after that; quite spicy and grits were hard. Within 45 minutes we were walking out after arriving. While I do appreciate quick service and they want to turn over a table, that was the quickest dinner I have ever had in Charleston.

   Over-salted, over-priced food! Service was good but very limited menu. I guess there was a reason we were able to get a last minute reservation.

   Amen Street's bill includes Charleston's 11% tax. Fine, But don't try to slip in a 20%, 22%, and 24% tip on the food and tax amount. And bartenders should not give attitude when I only tip 17% on pre-tax. Ruined the experience. As for the food, small portions of bouillabaisse. At least the seafood seemed high quality.

    We arrived for our second visit here booked a week in advance. They were very disorganized and frantic upon arrival while telling us we’d have a short wait because tables hadn’t been cleared. After a long 20 minute wait past our reservation, we asked the hostess why we hadn’t been seated when two spaces were open the entire time. She proceeded to seat us finally only to have us immediately being approached by a manager questioning the validity of our reservation and asking us for proof. We were so offended we almost left. The food was good but very questionable as to whether or not we”ll ever return again.
