So, where should we eat? What shouldn't we miss?

Do NOT miss The Wreck of the Richard and Charlene! It's over the bridge in Mount Pleasant. It's hard to find, no sign.

Oh, and when you go to the Wreck, do yourself a favor and get the she crab soup.

The menu looks great, Kevin!

The food there is nothing short of fantastic! 

I too love the Wreck. If you just turn in the driveway after Magwood Shrimp the building right in front of you is the Wreck.
 
I also recommend Seewee up Highway 17 in Mt Pleasant. There's still lots of construction between Charleston and it, but it's worth it. I also like Page's Okra Grill (mostly locals, prepare to wait on weekends). If you are on Isle of Palms try the Sea Biscuit for breakfast or lunch.
 
The Grocery is a new place on Upper King I like a lot.
 
If you want more upscale recs I can give you those too.

I was in Charleston a few years back, for one day. I ate at 82 Queen, which I do not regret. It was wonderful.
 
I am sorry I missed some of the more "road foody" places. Hominy Grill is the place I am sorry I missed.

We discovered Hominy Grill on our last trip to Charleston and have sent several friends there.  All have given positive reports.  Their shrimp and grits is very enjoyable.
