The best food I’ve had so far living in Charleston. Highly recommend the Masala salad and wings!!
😊Good food, and cool atmosphere. I only wish the bar seats were taller.
Can’t rave about this place enough. We are visiting and were recommended we try Ma’am Saab. The service is top tier- both the GM & Owner introduced themselves to us. The lemonade, absolutely to die for. It’s fresh squeezed and homemade. The food was phenomenal. We got the wings, the zucchini, and butter chicken. 10/10!!!

Based on the reviews, Ma'am Saab - Restaurant & Cocktail Bar is a very cool local restaurant/bar in Charleston offering authentic Pakistani/Indian food. The food was delicious and top notch, with the butter chicken noted as truly life-changing and a standout dish. The tasting menu is a MUST, with everything seasoned well and a hit for groups. Dishes like the mango lassi and biryani are very good, and the chutney sampler with paratha (including life-changing mango chutney) and the Marsala salad are highly recommended. Vegan options are abundant and accommodating to dietary needs. There is a great cocktail and beer menu. The desserts are so yummy. The decor is really nice and the ambience was pleasant. The staff are super friendly, welcoming, with efficient and professional service. The owner gives each round of food a story behind the dishes. While the food is generally good, some note that the butter naan is just generic store bought flatbread with butter, and service can be on the slow side. Overall, it is a lovely place for a nice dinner with family or friends.
