About The Palmetto Cafe

The Palmetto Cafe is a luxurious restaurant located within The Charleston Place hotel, offering a great variety of dishes. The menu features phenomenal steak and eggs and a huge turkey club. The decor is charming and reminiscent of scenes from Gone with the Wind, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff provides top-notch service, with attentive waitstaff like Rudy offering recommendations based on guest preferences. Recent reviews highlight the fantastic food and amazing drinks, contributing to a relaxing dining experience. Some dishes, such as the seafood omelette and crab cake benedict, received mixed comments—while the overall experience was enjoyable, some found the crab meat too salty and fishy. The shrimp and grits were praised as the best ever, with a flavorful twist and crispy shrimps. Mussels were perfectly cooked with a phenomenal, not-too-salty sauce. The turkey club was good, though some felt it had too much bread. Service was generally attentive, although a few reviews mentioned rude interactions at the parking validation station, which slightly affected the overall impression. Located downtown, it’s an ideal spot for a meal after shopping at local shops, offering high-quality food and excellent service despite some minor imperfections.
