Fodor's Review:
Charlotte Jenkins cooks up a mean lunch buffet stocked with fried chicken, collard greens with ham, crispy okra, and macaroni pie. But it's the Gullah dishes—with roots in African cuisines—that make her place unique. The Gullah rice—with chicken, sausage, shrimp, and vegetables—and the fried alligator tails are both delightful lessons in regional flavors. Dinner options have expanded to include lobster.

The Real Thing
Posted by lauraleesteakley from Mount Pleasant--around the corner from Gullah Cuisine on 9/6/07
If you want to experience real Gullah food, this is it. Although the food is good in the evening, I am recommending you go for the lunch buffet, and I NEVER would suggest a buffet anywhere else. There must be something about Gullah cooking that lends itself well to keeping warm for long periods--maybe that slaves cooked all morning for the standard Charleston 2:00 lunch? Whatever it is, the food always seems fresh even if you get there a little late. I promise you won't have lunch without finding at least one dish that sends you looking for Charlotte to ask "what's in there and how did you prepare it."
