Wonderful environment Great music

Elias King

Amazing venue and even more amazing singers! The wine is very good. Only issue is the charcuterie board was $36 and super small. Came with plastic ware. Definitely not worth $36. Will be back but not for the food.

Went for a girls' night with friends. The music and ambiance were fantastic! The drinks were overpriced, but they were also perfectly made. So take from that what you will.

One of the best experiences we had in all of Charleston. Very very talented group and the set list was so much fun. Great Jazz lounge for a date night or night out with friends. Very welcoming and great talent. Highly recommend.

A very nice evening of jazz.

Playing tourist, I randomly stopped in on a Thursday night. It was midway through the owner's performance, so thankfully the gal gave me half price on the cover charge which ended up being $13. From the outside it looks small, but inside it's deceptively large! Dark, chic, and romantic, with good acoustics. The owner and his trio were playing jazz standards and taking requests...good stuff! Beers start at $7, and cocktails are in the teens. If you're looking for a more upscale, quiet, and elegant place to enjoy music and drinks, this is it.

Great environment and music. The food on the menu is very overpriced. I didn't pay much attention to the drinks while I was there.

Our favorite part of our Charleston trip! Incredible musicians in an intimate venue with a variety of styles—we came two nights out of three, and would have made it three if they were open on Sundays. Cannot recommend this place enough!!!

Nice and relaxed location to listen to music. The Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin show with big band is a highlight. Great big band sound and two artists with authentic voices sweetened our evening.
