    We had high hopes for this restaurant but our food took twice as long to come out as people around us and the steak we ordered was full of tendons and could barely chew through it.

    Lamb burger tasteless. Fries cold. Pasta for starter pretty “meh”. Vouvray too sweet - bar tender admittedly knew nothing about the white selections. Great service but had outside seats go confirmed. Arrived early. Had a drink. Still sat inside. Interesting. Beautiful place. Nice people. Less than mediocre food. Didn’t finish it except for oysters and they said they would be served with horseradish. None served.

    Terrible experience, had a reservation and put in a side room next to bathroom that smelled like sewage. We never had the experience of this beautiful place. We were so excited and are very dissatisfied with the outcome. Food and service was fine. Hostesses couldn’t care less about reservation that had been made weeks in advance.

    We were a group of 9 visiting Charleston from Virginia for our friend's Bachelorette weekend. We needed a place to have brunch on our last day prior to heading to airport for home. I was in charge of restaurants and chose this location because of its ability to accommodate a party of our size and the variety on the menu. We had planned to be at the restaurant much longer because we did not know how efficient they would be with our party size and we were so pleased! The cocktails and food were amazing and the scones were so good we asked for a few extra! We loved the ambiance and the attentiveness of the service.

    The kitchen was held up due to a very large corporate party but we barely noticed, the managers took great care of us and even the chef came out to make sure we enjoyed our meal. It was such an amazing experience with great food and ambiance.

    One of our best experiences at a restaurant, ambience was amazing, the crab cake was impeccable. We celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary and Nathan did a great job.
