Restaurant 553

Yes, Restaurant 553 serves great Sunburst Trout—fried, blackened, or grilled—but Lowcountry fare, from Charleston to New Orleans, is this relative newcomer’s specialty. Many restaurants have come and gone at the charming, two-story cottage, but with dishes like shrimp and sausage in creole gravy with smoked Gouda cheese grits, this one is sure to become an institution.
