Hurricane Ian, the first to make landfall in South Carolina since Matthew in 2016, left Charleston area restaurants largely unscathed. Most, including those located in flood-prone areas, were able to reopen first thing Oct. 1.

Other peninsula restaurants returned to normal service less than 24 hours after Ian passed through Charleston.
