Robert Moss of the Charleston City Paper has reviewed the Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina branch of Barbara Jean’s, a seven-restaurant mini-chain in the Southeast.  It’s a mixed review but, in the end, he’s mostly disappointed by the overly sweet food.

The photo above is the view from the back deck of the Barbara Jean’s along the Intracoastal Waterway in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, from our Roadfood.com review.  We agree with Robert wholeheartedly about the ultra-sweet coconut shrimp, but we think the Southern-style vegetables are the way to go here.
