Gonna be down there for a few days coming up and have never been there before. I planned on mostly just getting trashed on the beach, but are there any good restaurants down there?

I went to Edisto Beach for a senior trip a few years back. But what I remember about food is that my friend's family cooked for us every night. And when we drove through town a few times I don't recall any restaurants, but there could be a few hole-in-the-wall type places. But all I remember really is a souvenir shop and a small grocery store (Piggly Wiggly maybe).
I'd say the majority of restaurants, bars, etc you'll have to make your way into Charleston since it's nearby. That was about 6 years ago but Edisto is small so it probably hasn't changed too much. Have fun man!
ETA: Quick google search and it looks like there are a few joints with good reviews. Friend's family must have been cheap asses. Bastards. They did take me deep sea fishing though.

It's my regular go-to when I'm going to the beach. Stop by Flowers Seafood on a daily basis to load up on fresh seafood for dinner each night. There aren't good restaurants there, aside from Dockside. Dockside is the titties if you're looking to get drunk. It's a fun, non-crowded beach with pretty damn good fishing. Get drunk, grill some fresh seafood, enjoy the beach. The Piggly Wiggly is now a Bi-Lo, which is gay, but still good for staples.

Please leave the beach cleaner than it was when you got there.

My in-laws own a house on Edisto. The island itself is 90% residential, which sounds boring but it’s nice and quiet. The beaches, outside of major holidays, are never really packed so it’s easy to set-up shop and down some beers.
Two things:
1. You will see a lot of dolphin in the area
2. There are a shite ton of jellysfish near shore so be careful
3. If you’re on the backside of the island, stop at Bi-Lo when you get there and load up

Good tips in here. I'll be headed there myself for the 4th. Can't wait. Love Edisto. Quiet and slow. Like me.
