This is the third time we have spent our Anniversary at Saltus. It is great every time!More infoSaltus River GrillPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Beaufort•4.7
- GGeorgeSouth Carolina •9 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe enjoyed our meal at Miramare Italian, which included a tasty blue crab linguini and bolognese with gnocchi. The food was wonderful and serving size was just about right. The selection of appetizers is excellent, but they are a bit pricey. Our server was upbeat, informative and attentive. The two seat tables are a bit close together, but overall the ambiance and background music was enjoyable. A great choice for Italian food in the Low Country.More infoMiramare ItalianoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Burton•4.7
