Word on the street
What locals are saying
Tavern & Table has held its Shem Creek perch since 2014, and a decade in it remains the default waterfront table for Mount Pleasant locals marking something — a birthday, a rehearsal dinner, a visiting family member who needs to see the creek. Executive Chef Denis Crutchfield, who came up through Tom Colicchio's Craft LA, keeps the menu locally sourced and purposefully unfussy: fresh oysters, steak frites, shareable small plates, and barrel-aged cocktails that the bar program treats as a serious pursuit. Peak weekend and sunset hours push the room loud enough that quiet conversation becomes wishful thinking — it's a celebratory crowd, and the place leans into it rather than apologizing.
