"Located in a former residence, Husk's bright wine paint, double porches, hanging ferns, and wrought iron fence look just as an artist might dream it up—like a storybook Charleston spot, and even today, years after its cult reservation status, many diners approach its front porch with the idea of Charleston with a capital "C" foremost in their minds. Tourists make up the majority of Husk's diners these days, and they arrive well-heeled and reservation app confirmed, but regulars still pop by on occasion, especially at the bar. Of all the restaurants in Charleston, this is still the one most locals get asked about. New Executive Chef Ray England works to lighten the restaurant's reputation for heavy-handed Southern-ness—expect hot lamb dumplings and smoked fish toast and ricotta doughnuts." - Stephanie Burt
