"With so many choices for local seafood in Charleston, its no wonder that chain restaurant Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. didn’t hold much appeal for Lowcountry residents — but the announcement of its closure was the big talk of the weekend. With only three stars on Yelp, and many of the reviews complaining about the service, it doesn’t seem like Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. wowed many visitors to the Market Street location." - Erin Perkins

Shrimp and grits were pretty good, better than I expected. Calamari portion is small yet crispy, spinach and artichoke dip was slightly creamy but more watery but it still tasted decent. Scampi was REALLY good, my chef mother in law loved it. Fried combination was delish, and not greasy. Fish was cooked very well and tender not over cooked. Over all a good dining experience with good service from our waiter. I would definitely recommend this place to others!

This was my very first visit with my family and had a great time and a wonderful experience. The interior was fantastic in every way, all off the decoration brought back the Forest Gump feeling. There are many options of meals for everyone to choose, and they are reasonably priced. We liked that the place was very family friendly and payed attention to their needs as well. The waiters were nice and worked in an organized way. The waiting time for the service was a tiny bit longer than expected, but there was no problem. The sign system at the table worked really well. I would recommend it for everyone looking for a nice meal in a good environment.

Historic ice house in downtown Charleston! Staff was friendly, facilities are clean, drinks were perfect. Food was above average but not the best seafood I've ever had. The gumbo was liked by everyone who tried it. Kids meals come in a cute paper boat dish and the souvenir beer glasses are worth the cost. We will be back!

Wonderful spot! The theme is so much fun and they have a little gift shop with the funniest Forrest Gump merchandise. The food is wonderful! The service is great. Make sure you stop in.

Great service! Our server was on her game. Food was delicious! However, did not care for the artichoke dip. Little too runny for my taste. Now, we did the sample platters. Oh so good! Followed up by by sampler dessert. Loved the bread pudding! Thank you so much! We will be back!

Indoor and outdoor seating. Family. Friendly environment. I had the sampler platter which was above average. Super crunchy and a variety of sauces. I can now mark it off my bucket list.

If you love the movie Forrest Gump, like myself, then you'll really enjoy this place! They have a shop with a lot of the iconic sayings on souvenirs and clothing; along with memorabilia from this awesome movie. The wait staff was incredible! While you wait for your food the staff will ask you trivia about the movie where (I'll be honest) some are kind of tricky. The food! Oh my God the food is out of this world delicious! You definitely will not be disappointed going here.💕

Had a great experience, the staff was very friendly, the service was fast, the food was delicious, the facility was clean. One of my favorite things about this restaurant was that they are pet friendly if your eating on the patio 😊 I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone
