This was the best lunch stop I’ve had in Charleston yet!! Our server was so friendly and gave us a great rundown of the menu. Everything we ordered was delicious and we can’t wait to come back!! The chicken sandwich and grilled oysters were our favorite. Also, don’t miss out on the potato side!

Everything was impeccable - food, vibe & service. We sat at the bar and had a wonderful bartender who was friendly and helpful, attentive yet chill. The food was spectacular - expertly prepared and beautifully presented. I had the shrimp roll with the chilled shrimp salad and can’t stop thinking about it. The textures and flavors were outstanding. I can definitely see why Leon’s was packed with a wait for lunch on a Friday at 12:30. A must-experience food destination in Charleston

Great food. The fried chicken is amazing and highly recommend. Oysters were great and good size and fairly priced. The potato thing they have is to die for. Fish sandwich and cucumber salad were amazing also.
