What a beautiful place. Restaurant and store in one. This a farm to table place. You will get serve paper plates, cup, and silverware. The food is home style cooking. Very good. If you don't want to ready you can always take a prepared meal home.

If you enjoy authentic home-cooked meals, stop at Stono Tomato Shed. Food served hot, wine prices reasonable, staff friendly and helpful. The Friday night crowd seemed to be more locals than tourists - a good sign. Before Cracker Barrel, there was Stono Tomato Shed. (they even have a front porch with seats for waiting). If you life Southern style cooked vegetables - tomato pie, squash casserole, sweet potato casserole, butterbeans, cabbage with carrots and bacon, cucumbers tomato and onions, collards, and zucchini, this is your place.

Awesome locally sourced place. We are lucky to have it here on Johns Island. Food is sure to quench any nostalgic yearning for home style cooking.

I love this place. If you want a good meal at a reasonable price, this is the place for you. The atmosphere gives you a real down home feel. If you go, I hope Gina is your waitress. She has a great sense of humor. I recommend the Tomato Shed Shrimp with grits! It’s a little spicy but very delicious. Make sure you use their restroom and wash your hands (Lol). It is handicapped accessible.

I ordered via telephone and they had my order ready in about 20 minutes. Pick up was easy and the food was plenteous and delicious! I had the BBQ plate with lima beans and a slice of tomato pie! Yum!

I actually burnt my tongue cause I was too excited to eat. Boy, the food was very good. It was kind of hot when we went there and the AC wasn't giving too much cool air. But it's fine. And we are in South Carolina anyway. This place is about 5mins away from Angel Oak tree which makes it a perfect stop over to eat after visiting the tree.

Precious local farm-to-table restaurant and shop. Southern style food is always fresh and delicious. Shop for coastal decor and fresh vegetables while you wait to eat. What fun and local food is about!

Food is amazing, especially for the price. I’ve had the beef tips, pulled pork, but I think my favorite is the flounder. I love that there are so many side varieties too. But I always get the tomato pie as one of the sides!Advice would be to make sure to check the hours they are open.

We bought fresh duck breasts for a great price, some pre packaged dinners, sauces, blueberry syrup, all products are from local farm. We also got fresh local large shrimp for 15 a pound.we had lunch there and you get a main with 2 sides and drink for 12. Impressed!

This is one of the best southern coastal cooking places to eat. Page's in Mt.P has nothing on them!!! Crab cakes are better and I have always been a fan of Pages crab cakes...but the tomato shed...takes the prize!!!

Really great taste of local "home" cooking. We could not have been more impressed. Crab cakes... Much better than others we'd had in Charleston. Beef tips with mushrooms were well seasoned and super tender. Pulled pork was a match for any well rated BBQ joint. As if these were not enough the sides were actually even better, from a list that seems to change regularly and had at least 20-25 choices, we tried the salad with oranges, nuts and citrus dressing, the cheddar bacon ranch pasta salad, the mashed potatoes with gravy, Mac and cheese, potato salad, and rice with gravy... Yes each meal comes with 2 sides. The only negative I can say is we all ended up eating way tooo much.

Food just like your grandmother used to make, clean and bright dining area, and friendly, quick service to begin with. They offer put together casseroles for customers to take home and bake which we did and they were delicious. There are also fresh produce and gift areas. It was crowded when we were there but the wait was short and the noise was quite tolerable as we could hear ourselves talk without having to raise our voices.

This my favorite place to eat on John's Island!! Such a relaxed place and the food is stellar. Home cooking style with a farm to table twist. Cool market and lots of take home dishes too in the gift area. Always a wait to get there well before they close. Only wish they were open on Sundays!!

After we visited Angel Oak Tree, someone recommended this Cafe for lunch. The food was wonderful. We tasted a lot of different sides and thoroughly enjoyed every morsel. The waiter was extremely friendly. I highly recommend this place for eating. They also sell things like ornaments, etc.

Straight up one of the best places in the Charleston area for good ol' fashioned southern food. My girlfriends and I go there often after Bible study for lunch. A word of advice... get there early.
