About Charleston

Charleston is an upscale fine-dining restaurant that offers an old-school bougie experience. The menu features 4-6 course tasting menus, with dishes expertly prepared and rich in unique flavors. Standout dishes include the scallop course, breaded oysters, and duck, which is cooked to perfection and tender like a seared steak. The atmosphere is intimate and romantic, with dimly lit shelves of wine surrounding the tables. The wine list is extensive, with over 50 pages to choose from, and the sommelier is happy to provide recommendations. Service is friendly and helpful, with waiters explaining the dishes and wine pairings, making the experience seamless and special. The staff creates a welcoming environment, and the atmosphere is perfect for celebrating milestones or enjoying a romantic night out.

Customers praise the exceptional food, including the jalapeño risotto, sweet potato tart, steak tartare, truffle fettuccini, and vanilla bean crème brûlée. They recommend trusting the staff's recommendations and specials, which are not always listed on the menu. The service and atmosphere are also highly regarded, with the restaurant accommodating large groups and providing a good value for the fine dining experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first experience at the Charleston. The atmosphere was amazing and the staff was very kind. We had great conversations with several of them and truly felt welcomed. The food was delicious, our favorite part definitely being the cheese and dessert. Highly recommend!

Magic comes at a price but if you have the means or a special occasion to celebrate choose the Charleston!
