My husband & I love sitting at the bar at Halyard’s for a martini and a good meal. Last night I ordered the chopped wedge salad and a bowl of the crab soup, which is hard to get and is always delicious here. Classic low-country “she-crab” soup. Adding sherry as the menu provides, is a must.

Service was impeccable, the restaurant was out of a couple of dishes so we ordered what was available. The way the dishes were described. They arrived a little different than the menu description. Minor changes such in the vegetables that were originally supposed to come with them.
HalyardsResponded 5 days ago
NathanE-- Thank you for the insightful review! We appreciate you taking the time to share such a detailed account of your meal from last week. We sincerely apologize for the adjustments we made that evening and appreciate you for your patience and understanding. It will be our pleasure to serve you again (and with the proper veg choices!). Happy Holidays!
