Wild Olive, Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

Erin Perkins is the editor of Eater Carolinas, covering the food and restaurant scene across North and South Carolina.

Welcome to our photo series Eater Scenes, where Eater photographers visit some of the city's great restaurants to capture them at a certain, and very specific, point in the day. Today, Wild Olive at 7:30 p.m. on a Saturday.


Italian staple Wild Olive opened in 2009 on Johns Island and has since become a destination for classic house-made pasta dishes, intriguing entrees utilizing local ingredients and fresh small plates. The place gets absolutely packed on the weekends and even stays busy during the week with a $19 wine list on Mondays and Tuesdays. Chef Jacques Larson and his team will soon open a second venture on Sullivan's Island, The Obstinate Daughter.

Before the crowds start lining up for the new place, Eater thought it would be good to examine the original. Here is a look at the restaurant at 7:30 p.m. on a recent Saturday, as seen through the lens of Eater Charleston photographer Rémy Thurston.
