"The she-crab soup is one of the best around."

Robert F. Moss

"There's so much she-crab soup to be found in the city that it's hard to pick favorites. But, the versions served at Anson are good representatives of the fine dining style."

Expedia

"Other items you simply have to try: the she-crab soup at Anson restaurant."

Angel Postell

"Prepare to feast on Southern seafood favorites such as she-crab soup."

Barbara Skidmore

"We started with their She-crab soup and the Crab Cake, both were perfect."

"You should also start with their she-crab soup which was mind-blowingly awesome. We split the soup because it is heavy. So good."

Vicente Garcia

"Noms! I’ve had the she crab soup twice at Anson and it’s absolutely amazing. There are other versions made in Charleston that are much heavier and thicker which I don’t like as much. Anson’s soup is rich and flavorful but doesn’t sit in your stomach like a pound of bricks. Its consistency is perfect and the creamy crab flavor rocks!"

Matthew DeBord

"At Anson, it's rescued: Elegantly presented in a small cup, the soup is creamy without being unctuous, shot through with a joyful essence of crustacean. New chef Kevin Johnson knows that balance is often the way to diners' hearts."

"The she crab soup was silky and rich, with a very flavorful base full of sweet crab meat."

Vanessa Wolf

"This is the soup equivalent. The she-crab soup is lush, sumptuous, and decadent."
