"A coastal restaurant blending seafood and Italian influences—recommended for seafood-forward Italian dishes in a nautical-chic setting." - Erin Perkins
"A Sullivan’s Island favorite for seafood-forward Italian dishes — described as a good post-beach choice for seafood-heavy Italian fare." - Erin Perkins
"Charleston is a very relaxed city, but even so, it’s nice to get out of town and see some of the surrounding wildlife. When that’s the case, make the 20-minute trip to Sullivan’s Island, which is home to a lot of pretty nature and The Obstinate Daughter. This restaurant is only five minutes from the beach and serves everything from pizza and pasta to Lowcountry classics, along with a huge variety of wine and cocktails. If you head here for brunch, order the shrimp roll and Lowcountry frites and take a walk down to the water afterward. If you make a day out of the trip and come back for dinner, the griddled octopus and ricotta gnocchi with short rib ragu are two of our favorites." - jai jones, emily yates
"Diners can eat pizza, pasta, and fresh seafood just a few steps from the ocean. From the skilled hands of executive chef Jacques Larson, the Obstinate Daughter offers a stunning dining room to spend visit for lunch, brunch, or dinner. Visitors should order a craft cocktail, a few oysters, and try the ricotta gnocchi with short rib ragu at least once." - Erin Perkins
"Italian-influenced chef Jacques Larson cooks up some of the best brunch at the beach. Customers come for the mafaldine carbonara or the Old Danger pizza with pancetta and a runny farm egg." - Erin Perkins
