Called this restaurant at the last minute after arriving in Charleston for a reservation for 4. Got one immediately. Can I tell you the hostess, waiter, and even the young lady that sat us was superb. The appetizers, drinks, and dinner was all delectable! … More

This place was amazing from start to finish. Enjoyed the walk-up to the actual restaurant, historic street with a neat vibe. Inside seated quickly and very high class elegant atmosphere. Our server, Gabe, was quick to greet us and offer us recommendations. Ordered the fried green tomatoes, fried chicken, and the bouillabaisse. All of it was delicious and amazing, so much food couldn't even finish it even though you wanted to find the room. About halfway through, my wife and I switched plates and enjoyed the others plate just as much. My kid got the cheeseburger off the kids meal and it was huge. He though the cheese looked like a brain so had to include that picture. Not from this area, but I would definitely recommend it!! If I ever come back to this area this will be a must have dinner spot. Kid-friendliness: Had a good selection for kids menu, such as chicken tenders, cheeseburger, grilled cheese and more. Parking: Parked just a few doors down in a paid parking lot. Went on

Alice was wonderful and fully explained the menu so we knew exactly what we were ordering. As a local who eats shrimps and grits all the time, the Spicy Shrimp and Sausage was the best I have ever had. We will be back!
