The restaurant sits on Shrimp Boat Lane, about a tenth of a mile from Shem Creek Park and within a short walk of Coleman Boulevard. A fourth-generation family business serving the Mt. Pleasant community from the banks of Shem Creek, Mt. Pleasant Seafood has earned its standing through decades of direct customer relationships and a large base of reviews reflecting consistent favor among those who have walked through its doors.
