Great waiter. I'm embarrassed that I forgot his name. The onion soup is fantastic. I wanted pick up the bowl and pour in my mouth to make sure I got the last sip. The lamb tenderloins medium rare are mouth watering. And the grilled baby carrots are not to be missed.
My husband and I wanted to celebrate moving to Charleston, so we looked up a fancy restaurant that had a reservation open, and I'm so happy we found this place. The food was phenomenal! I got the pan roasted duck, and my husband got the rabbit, and they were both absolutely incredible. Our dessert was the Chocolate Potes de Creme, which was rich and velvety. The biggest compliment we would like to give is to our server, Noah. He was an attentive and helpful server, but even more than that, he was a genuinely delightful human being. We felt so safe and comfortable talking to him that we left wondering when we could come back, so we could be friends with him. He is truly one of the best servers we've ever had.
AMAZING dining experience here! Our waiter, Zack was very attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the menu. The food was delicious along with the presentation!
