At 82 Queen, the light and zesty crab cakes come with purloo, prosciutto green beans, and a smear of remoulade
A downtown bastion of Lowcountry staples like shrimp and grits and Frogmore stew, 82 Queen has steadily been building a menu of forward-thinking dishes. Of course, the proven classics remain. Locals and visitors alike continue to head to the Queen for fried green tomatoes, crab cakes, and Lowcountry chicken bog. But don’t let tradition stand in the way of trying that fried oyster and crawfish gumbo. —Sam Spence (Dish, Summer 2018)
