Seafood omelette was very delicious. Blue Crab Benedict served on in-house baked round croissants were amazing. Waiter John was friendly and service was impeccable. The food, admittedly, took a while to come out, but we were not in a rush and were able to enjoy the beautiful dining room all that more.
We stayed at Charleston Place hotel and really enjoyed our breakfast from Palmetto Cafe.
The restaurant was so nice and elegant, the plates, cups, saucers, and the decoration were so lovely.
They offered quite a good breakfast menu and the latte along with the cappuccino was so good and a great way to start my day.
Our server was friendly, attentive, and always checking on us to make sure we have what we need and the food met our expectation.

Amazing place, highly recommend. Our server John was incredible. Whoever owns this business should know they have a gem of an employee working for them. I know myself as a business owner that good employees are extremely hard to find! John's professionalism was truly refreshing to see. Top notch, first class service 👏 You do great work John!

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.
