Counter Service First
Dave's Carry-Out works as a counter-serve space geared to take-out. Guests come in, place an order at the counter, and leave with food prepared for the road or a quick stop back home. The setup fits a takeout restaurant Charleston visitors can use without a long sit-down meal.
The format keeps the visit direct. There is no need to plan around a full dining room meal. The focus stays on getting in, ordering, and carrying out a meal from a soul food restaurant Charleston diners can reach for lunch or dinner on the days it opens. The counter stays the point of contact, so the order moves from place to pack to carry-out without extra steps.

About Dave's Carry-Out
Dave's Carry-Out serves soul food and seafood in Charleston. The space is set up for takeout, with counter service and a quick handoff at the front. It sits at 42 Morris St C, where lunch and evening hours run Tuesday through Friday.
The kitchen leans into classic plates that fit a carry-out counter. Tuesday brings turkey wings or beef ribs with cabbage, plus red rice or white rice. Thursday lists Cornish hen and Hopping John or white rice. Friday adds BBQ ribs or turkey wings, collard green, and red rice or white rice. The menu changes by day, so the order of the week shapes what comes out of the kitchen.
Lunch service starts at 11:30 AM. The first window ends at 3 PM, then service opens again at 5:30 PM and runs to 11 PM on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Monday is closed. Saturday is closed. Sunday is closed.
The counter setup fits a simple pickup routine. A guest steps in, places an order, then waits for the food to come up from the kitchen. The menu centers on hot dishes that hold well for the ride home, with rice, greens, ribs, wings, and hen built for a boxed meal. The flow stays direct from order to handoff.
