“My husband and I visited Charleston for the first time for our 20th wedding anniversary. We stayed 3 nights and ate lunch and dinner at over 10 restaurants. Halls was the last meal we had on our last night and we were so impressed by their hospitality and delicious food and drinks. From the second we walked in and the hostesses so cheerfully greeted us to a manager coming by as soon as we sat down to get to know us then surprise us with glasses of champagne and then our server who was attentive, friendly but also gave us space to enjoy our dinner. Drinks came out fast and were the best cocktails we had while in Charleston. We are from Texas so it’s hard to impress us with steak but we enjoyed the dry aged Ribeye that was cooked perfectly to our liking. We sat upstairs and loved the overall vibe of the restaurant. This is definitely a must go to restaurant if you visit Charleston!“
“The restaurant seems to be showing its age. The gnocchi is still great. The atmosphere, service, and other dishes are in decline. At the price point there are better options in Charleston. They have removed the lime cream puff from the menu, if you are/were a fan of it.“
“Hands down best meal in Charleston. Well worth the 2.5 hour wait. Absolutely incredible flavors across the board. Very fresh seafood, prepared to perfection. The atmosphere is lively and fun!We had the sweetest server, Holly! We bonded over people always saying our names wrong lol. There’s no wonder this place makes everyone’s must try list when visiting Charleston! “
“Was the rehearsal dinner foe my niece's wedding. Everything was spectacular. Highly recommend the low country boil.Parking: Downtown Charleston has a shortage of parking and Leon's is no exception. Small dedicated lot was full and limited space.Kid-friendliness: Kids attended and service was great.“
“Wish I could give 10 stars! The food was elevated but comfortable! I felt like a local as soon as I walked in with my group! Barkeep service and drinks spectacular. fyi if you go order the torch cooked bacon … something I didn’t know I needed in my life!“
“10/10 experience and we will definitely be back! Our server was wonderful and the entire staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was top tier and the scallops were the best I've ever had! We shared the mixed berry cobbler with strawberry cheesecake ice cream and it was out of this world! I cannot say enough about The Peacock..absolutely amazing!“
“This is not one bar, but two-in-one. The first one (last saint) is a very relaxed, easy going bar with great cocktails a la carte. Once you are on there, you can ring the bell to the Annex. This is a more upscale cocktail bar, with a very talented bartender, who will mix a cocktail based on your personal taste - one among the best I have ever had.“
“My husband and I decided to visit Charleston, SC, for the weekend. We ended up googling barbecue restaurants, and who would have known that the restaurant food, service, and atmosphere would be great. As we waited for our waitress to assist us, one of the cooks asked if we knew what we were ordering. We looked at each other, and then I looked at the cook and responded No. He replied I'll send out a sample plate. The sample plate had beef brisket, pulled pork, sausage, and smoked turkey on it. Just to let you know, the food was delicious. I chose to build my own and had the beef brisket, pulled pork, macaroni & cheese. Potato salad. Now I wasn't a fan of the potato salad, it had the taste of sour cream overload. The lemonade was very tart to me. Now for our waitress, Ms. Kirby was amazing. Her personality was amazingly pleasant. We thank you for your amazing service. Ms. Kirby, I pray many blessings of favor upon you and your brother. And blessings upon Swig and Swine business..Parking: There's about 4 parking spaces on the left side of the building and maybe 3 or 4 in the front of the building.“
“La Bonne consistently exceeds expectations. For brunch, the french toast was made with excellent bread, cooked perfectly and served with berries that were both firm and sweet. The omelette was cooked beautifully with just the right amount of goat cheese and mushrooms. Let's talk about coffee: amazing french press cup, delicious. The service, the staff, attention to detail— always so well done. Lovely experience.“
“We stumbled on to this awesome restaurant. The shrimp and polenta dish was one for the record books... so good! The staff is amazing, they even have a list of "staff favorites" of other restaurants.It was so good, we came back again during our very short stay!“
“We were visiting Charleston, and our family has a number of food allergies - milk, egg, peanuts, tree nuts, plus I'm gluten-free. We are accustomed to limited options, being disappointed, and risking allergic reactions when eating out. So, we were excited to try Basic Kitchen based on the reviews.The location is great. The staff is very welcoming and friendly and the ambience is nice. Loved the energy and the vibes from the staff and the restaurant decor. There were lots of options for us to eat and I felt very safe (for myself and my kids). Thai butternut & red lentil soup was yummy. My hubs got the yellow coconut curry with tofu and it was really good. The sweet potato fries with the vegan ranch were amazing (really the ranch...you have to try it).I ordered the Naughty Burger without cheese and on gluten-free bread and was underwhelmed. The beef was great, but they left off the onions and gave me a dollop of dijonnaise on sandwich bread (sliced bread). That's it. Sandwich bread, a dollop of dijonnaise, pickles, and 2 burger patties. It was dry and basic. I would have loved a gluten-free bun, the option of vegan cheese, and more condiments.My son enjoyed his Naughty Burger without modifications. It did come with a bun.Overall, I was pleased that no one had an allergic reaction, everyone had safe options, and the food was good. I just wasn't blown away and was disappointed with my Naughty Burger. I wish I didn't have to sacrifice flavor for safe food.If you don't have dietary restrictions, you'll likely love the food. It's fresh, quality food with great service!“
“Beautiful rooftop dining and such an amazing view! I took one star from food as the pina colada shrimp was good but not worth $22 for 6 shrimp. It was $70 for one plate of shrimp, a non alcoholic drink and a shot of bourbon (+tip). I may could justify that given the view/atmosphere though...“
“It's a nice hipster looking place with indie and alternative music in the background ? the staff is super friendly and you can see that they work as a team and get along ?♂️I tolerate spicy very little and well ? this place has very few menu options and several of them are, guest what? spicy ?️? however the good reviews and photos made us come ? the little I tried from my boyfriend's dish (Pad Kra Pao) it seemed to me that the meat was very well seasoned, and he was fascinated by his dish, the buns we ordered to share were delicious, sweet and soft, both the bun and the meat ?; my greens tasted sooooo good, we were impressed; the Jiao Zi were a surprise, I had never tried that flavor profile and I It seemed very interesting honestly but I also started to burn my mouth our waitress Natalie saw me struggling with water and my ginger beer and brought me ? milk like ❤️ it was the freakin’ sweetest and most considerate gesture on the ? because I knew that it would be spicy and I still took the risk and didn't ask for help but she was watching our table so she noticed it honestly super attentive not only with that but with her whole service during our stay, I am so pleased whenever I get actual quality services, 5 stars for Natalie ⭐️?We were satisfied in our tummies and our hearts ? (and had some leftovers to go ?)“
“We sat at the bar. Took some time to be served a drink, but once we had the bartender's attention, the rest was great! We ordered 2 dozen raw oysters at Happy Hour price, a great value. Very fresh & served with 3 different sauces, as well as a bottle of yummy local hot sauce. Lovely place, very popular. All ages were welcome.“
“Had Easter brunch here. Awesome!! Food. Service. Atmosphere. Superb. I was torn between the crab cake Benedict and chicken biscuit with gravy and hot honey sauce. I went with the chicken. It was excellent! Wife had the breakfast burger. I tried it. Very flavorful. I think I need to go back tomorrow for the Benedict!! Check it out.“
“Talk about a great time with amazing eats and even better hospitality. The gang at Bedford Falls are just stellar! Bar tender Roscoe is a top notch lad and the owner Brendan made us feel right at home. Can’t say enough about the food…just perfection. Try the Fried Chicken Sandwich! Hands down a place to visit if you are in town.“
“Every bite was a complete delight! Fresh raw bar was ready to go and satisfied everybody at the table. The oyster Po boy as well as the smashburger were the perfect size. Service is great, it was busy yet everything was quick, tasty and met my expectations!“
“Izzy was the best!! The entire time, she checked on us many times, came by after we settled up to see if we changed our minds and gave us multiple options for the most popular drinks and her favorites. Izzy is the kind of server you want every time you go ANYWHERE!!!The owner also came by numerous times to ensure we were comfortable and cared for.My family and I will 100% be back to see her and the staff again next time we come to Charleston! Best bar in the C-Town!!“
“I love this place! It’s a regular stop after the Pourhouse. Usually I order a house/well bourbon on the rocks and pay cash. It’s always been $8. Tonight I gave them a $20 bill and got $7 back. I was gentle and kind (I think the bartenders would agree) and said I think y’all forgot a $5 bill.They showed me their little hand held pay system and I was clearly able to see there’s a $3 up charge for getting ice with your house bourbon.I hope I am not being rude, but that seemssilly to me. Maybe I need to be thanking my previous bartenders here for not charging me $3 for ice. I hope I’m not throwing them under the bus. However this ice up charge that’s a bit extreme seems silly to me.The reason I’m writing this review is there obviously seems to be a discrepancy. I still love this place and think it’s fantastic. I just want to communicate so y’all can figure this out.Thanks for the many nights of amazing service and great vibes! I’ll be back.“
“Babas on Cannon is a fantastic place to get coffee with a friend, meet with a client or have a brainstorming session with a colleague. One of my favorite spots to go to because of the ambience downtown and the style and design on the inside.Everything on the menu is absolutely incredible, the coffee art is inspirational and delicious.“
“We were looking for a place for happy hour and oysters and have enjoyed the Bay St location so we thought we would give the West Ashley spot a try and so glad we did. We sat at the bar by the shucking area and learned more about oysters from Doyle than we thought possible. The oysters were all excellent and you must try the char-broiled oysters for an app. They were fantastic. All of the staff were very friendly and attentive and we really liked the home town, neighborhood atmosphere. If you're looking for a great place for oysters away from the tourists this is the place. Sit on the right side of the bar and visit with Doyle. You'll be glad you did.“
“Nice little place. Thanks to Jane, they were open, despite planned being closed for the night. Beer was cold and refreshing. Great conversation with the young lady. Despite her only working there once per week, she's certainly knowledgeable about the bar and the beers.“
“First ever and last ever review.. If you know you know. Long and short of it, this hotel is immaculate. Butler service, gourmet breakfast daily to the room, arrival cocktail's, complimentary mini fridge and one of the chillest, casual classy lounges I've been to. Imagine Johnny Cash, Karl Lagerfeld and Dean Martin opened a bar then hired the Kennedy's to Manage the hotel“
“It’s a dive bar but definitely the best bar we went to in Charleston. Strong pours, fun, happy patrons, friendly bar staff and just so good. If you are looking for a down to earth bar full of locals check it out and have a good time. Enjoy!“
“NEED SOME GITTY-UP?!Ms Roses specifically cocktails are an option. For brunch, highly recommend their Espresso Martini. Presentation is nice with moca colored froth & espesso beans on top. Nice balance of sweet, creamy, and bitterness of coffee underneath. Pleasant antidote for any carp fog you may experience after your delicious brunch meal.“
“My wife got a little big carrying our babies so I took her to get a wild burger here at Home Team BBQ. Was VERY good. The food was beautiful! You should bring you wife or your whale over. The small 2 comments I have are getting a true Dijon mustard and fresh black pepper on board. ❤️“
“Dropped by Fiat Lux to grab a cocktail in a state of depression which was the most rewarding decision of my entire life. The drink was standard but the service and friendship that the bartender Patty treated me to was a biblical experience. Not only is this handsome man a shining light with the most beautiful smile but he’s a beacon of wisdom and advice for anyone in need.I’m convinced he will go extremely far in any organization and any company will be blessed to acquire such an asset.P.S. Ladies, I think he’s single but the ice girl (Ryan) is pursing him aggressively, so move quickly“
“My girlfriend and I went there and had a little confusion on our bill. They looked into it, showed us what happened and everything was correct. But, they didn’t stop at “just correct”… the owner gave us two free beers just because WE were the ones confused. I can’t stress enough how kind the people who work there are. You can really tell they love what they do. They went above and beyond! We will definitely be back.:)“
“Fun rooftop spot with a trendy vibe and great aesthetics. They have indoor and outdoor seating but the court yard is definitely worth it if weather permitting. There is a great fire place for the cooler nights and overall is an excellent pick for girls night, bachelorette parties or any excuse to get dolled up and have fun cocktails and raw bar! A bit pricey but all the trendy spots usually are.“
“Amazing hidden gem. This little restaurant is delicious and right on the water. The food was fast, fresh and so tasty. The staff were nice. The inside is super cute and they have a little area of assorted goods to shop. Plenty of beer and seltzer to choose from!! Like other posts say you do have to park down the road and walk but it’s not far at all. You also get to watch the marina workers move boats with a forklift which is pretty cool. Great place! Will go again!Parking: You must park down the street off the road if you don’t have a marina parking pass.“
“For starters, the bartenders couldn't be better. They handled a busy crowd in the most efficient and kindest way I've seen. Plus the drinks were great and the glowing ice cubes were super cool. However the food is what takes the cake...I got the 'Reindeer Chili' and it was amazing. It was like home cooked chili w the perfect amount of sour cream and toppings...plus the rice it laid on made the dish perfect. It would be an amazing dip too I bet ...The ambiance was totally on par for Christmas too“
“This place is a true gem. It's everything you want from a neighborhood bar including a great staff, good drinks and awesome food options. The local community that Lucky Luchador serves is warm and welcoming--as an out of towner I felt completely embraced by them. I wish I had a great spot like this near where I live, and can't say enough nice things about it. If you're lucky enough to live in Charleston, you won't regret visiting Lucky Luchador.“
“Wonderful dining experience from start to finish. The hostess was polite. Tyler (server) explained the menu and specials right away. He checked on us in a timely manner after each course. Our desserts were delivered to us by the manager Don. It was our anniversary and everyone made sure to tell us Happy anniversary. We got the signature hot rock as our appetizer. It was delicious. My husband got the dry aged ribeye and ai got the scallops. Both were cooked perfectly. We will be back!“
“Dang - I wish I would have found this place earlier!Really great tap list and killer singles selection - if you're a craft beer person, make this a must visit in Charleston! Chris was super nice and helpful and his little foster puppy in the shop was the goodest boy. Thanks for the tasty beers!“
“My cocktail was good. The salmon on my salad was cold. I did order their wings, " extra crispy" but unfortunately that request wasn't honored. I didn't take a picture of the wings. Restaurant is near the mall, which is in walking distance. Restaurant was clean and my food came out in timely manner.Parking: Stand alone restaurant with plenty of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.“
“This is a repeat from two years ago. Then, we stuck to drinks on the rooftop. This trip we did two separate visits with late lunch and drinks. I found the "Limeade" refreshing. It was not too sweet and had a nice balance of lime and bubbles. The crab soup was wonderful and the greens were tasty! Service both times was great.Wheelchair accessibility: With assistance through the narrow door, coming in is not too difficult. Once inside, it is accessible on first floor only. There, the floors are hardwood, and the tables are spaced such that navigating to the table should be easy enough. The building is a renovation. There is no elevator to the other two floors.“
“This is our favorite place. The people are down-to-earth and friendly. Chill vibes, cheap prices, great bar staff, pop-up restaurants, and theres almost always something going on and someone cool to talk to.Vegetarian options: There’s a vegan burger pop-up that runs Fridays and Sundays that is amazing“
“Great little neighborhood bar that was within walking distance to my Air BnB. It has a decent beer and wine selection. They have snacks as well. Vivian was friendly and had several suggestions for restaurants in the area. I was here early so no one else was in here but I'm sure it's a popular place. Wednesday nights is open mike night and live music every Friday and Saturday. Come check it out!“
“Popped over here for a night cap. We were able to snag a table in the corner for 8 of us. This is inside the Charleston place and it had a cool old cigar lounge/casino vibe. Our server was nice and was accommodating to our large group. My drink was a strawberry milk punch, it was good and light, not super spirit forward. I definitely wanna come back and try more things.“
“Consistently great food. The nachos are always a group favorite. Wings are so tender and delicious. I also love the turkey wrap and Home Team salad. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. And of course the BBQ is amazing.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring kids. Especially if the weather is nice and you can sit out back.“
“We are locals & have always wanted to do tea service, so I brought my daughter with a friend for her 5th birthday celebration. Wow!! What a treat. All the snacks were yummy, the tea was delicious, our server was amazing. & the rose for grown ups was a welcomed addition as well! We had such a lovely time being “fancy” & enjoying the atmosphere. Both my daughter & her friend were sad to leave & disappointed that the rest of the world is not as pink as Camellia’s. I will be back soon for a girls trip!!“
“One of my favorite places. Food is always excellent and the staff are always polite. Service is great as well and the owner comes by and talks to the patrons. Plenty of vegetarian options. 3 types of Hummus, Falafel, brown lintel soup, cooked or raw veggie platter with asparagus, mushrooms and carrots. Try the Lebanese beer and the Lebanese coffee. Take a date here and sit in the little window seats and enjoy the view of lower king street. 10 stars from me. I always look forward to stopping in.Vegetarian options: 3 types of humus, brown lintel soup, raw or cooked vegetables, salad“
“Great wings. Their reaper wings are great. In regards to all the reviews saying th they had to wait, chill out. It’s a dive bar. The bartenders are great. If you’re going to ask for an aperol spritz, this isn’t your vibe. The guy named Stalker has great taste and music.“
“Great little bar!!! It has about 6 bar stools but has seating outside. My wife and I walked over from the hotel next door. We got there just before it opened. The GM, Andre, was next door at Victor's setting up chairs. He stopped what he was doing and came over to to talk with us and to open the bar. He was very nice and was able to recommend a seafood place down at the marina. His recommendation was spot on!!!“
“Came across this place because it was close to our hotel, but it was so worth the visit! We had a group of 9 and everyone loved their food, especially the fries & sauce. In addition to the food, the service was above and beyond! Jessie took great care of us and the other 2 staff were incredibly kind and attentive as well! If you're in Charleston, definitely check this place out!“
“Visited on a Wednesday night - decent size crowd. Was supposed to be karaoke night, but they didn't have it due to plumbing issues.Ordered several beers, a Jack & Coke, and a Mule. Cocktails were decently made. Prices very reasonable.Service was good and attentive. Fun, divey atmosphere. Would recommend for a fun drink (or several).“
“We visited Hunley's for the Sunday night football game. The Bills/Dolphins crowd was fun and friendly! My potato skins were great! The most impressive part of our night was the gentleman who was our server. He was so attentive and basically waited all the tables, very quick on his feet and very accurate with our order and timing for additional items and drinks!!Parking: This bar is in a plaza.“
“And the pizza with the cauliflower crust It was so good crispy like I like it. I enjoyed it the atmosphere was great. I was on that side of town so I stopped in after I went to Staples I will definitely come back. Ate pizza the night before from Caesars It was horrible this pizza was off the chain so good. I will definitely be back in the service was amazing. I would give it a 10 plus so good ??♥️Parking: Parked right up front and walked in awesome ?Kid-friendliness: They were very friendly and I just stopped for something to drink and they talk to me into the great pizza and it was so good with the cauliflower crust I wanted it very crispy and it was delicious. I had just stopped at Staples and just popped in I will definitely be back. This pizza is something to brag about and the service was amazing. So kind and friendly Great atmosphere. That was alone and did not feel that way. I will 100% come back ♥️☮️Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely would not have a problem coming in this place I love the decor and The pizza was delicious ♥️“
“UPDATE: Salad is still amazing. Come here regularly now and it is always consistent and delicious!!Also love the crispy smashed potatoes.One of the best salads of my life. Greek salad add roasted chicken.Everything about this salad was perfect. The thought that went into the topping preparations shows in every bite.I loved the textures of each bite. Each topping was chopped at the perfect size and each topping was the perfect portion adding perfect amount of flavor to the salad, not overpowering anything. The chicken being chopped into the cubes allowed chicken to be in each bite. The pita bread! oh wow was it soft, and it was perfectly warm.I am not a dressing pourer kind of person, so the consistency of the dressing was so so nice for people like me who dip the bite. But I ended up just using the pita in the dressing for each bite.I usually went for it in a wrap with the bit chunks of feta in there but this salad was. so. good.I will continue to come here.Place is clean, friendly service, delicious food, quick service. It is a perfect lunch spot!Give it a go! And to the chef and team there keep up the wonderful work!!Vegetarian options: Tons of vegetarian options, salads, wraps.Kid-friendliness: they have items for children as well.Parking: It can be tight depending on time of day but there is a side lot as well so it works out.Wheelchair accessibility: Tables have removeable chairs. The front door is wheelchair accessible. Plenty of room between tables as well.“
“This place is ok. We got the oyster, and I was surprised how unflavored it tastes, and I've eaten oysters around the world. The only reason I am giving this place a 4 star is because of the gumbo. OMG, the best I've ever had. Can't stop thinking about it. A must for everyone.“
