    We have lived in Charleston for 24 years and this is our first visit to this restaurant. It was one of the best meals we’ve had in the city. Delicious food, both French and American and a great place to eat. We were right next-door to the music venue we were going to. The service was superb. I recommend those who have just come to Charleston and who might have been here a while, but not gone yet to try this place out. You will not be disappointed.

    We had a group of 8 for our annual oncology nurses board meeting during the holidays. The staff was great, very welcoming and accommodating. The food was excellent. Everyone at our table was a first time visitor at this restaurant and all said they would return. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for the ambiance, food and service. I will return.

    We were a party of four and we ordered 2-3 plates off each menu section. Portions are perfect for sharing. The flavors were very defined in each dish. We loved everything we ordered. Go and be adventurous. You will enjoy every bite.
