    Creative cuisine, but limited. Zucchini was not cooked enough. Hard to cut. Melon soup was delicious! Very loud at night.

    We knew it was pricey when we booked the reservation. I guess it didn’t register until we saw the prices with the portion size. $38 for 3 scallops!We shared the grilled peaches, focaccia with ricotta which was outstanding with the peaches, and three delicious scallops. We had a 6 PM reservation on a Saturday night and were seated at the front window. We enjoyed the street view and appreciated being away from the bar noise. Our server was delightful.

    The food was fantastic, especially the grilled peaches and the crab hummus dip. The service was just right and very friendly. It is worth going a little out of the tourist area for this good of a restaurant.

    This was probably the worst meal I have ever had. The wagu beef was terrible and all the other food was just as bad. I wish I didn’t waste a night in Charleston eating at this establishment.

    Great dining experience, the ingredients were fresh, the yellowfin tuna fantastic and the herbs and spices combined to make complex and compelling flavors. Service was excellent. Will definitely be revisiting this restaurant!

    Four course chefs tasting menu was extraordinary! I won’t reveal the courses or amuse bouche. Every ingredient was fresh, flavorful, and in perfect harmony. Great value and perfect portion sizes. It truly was a a casual vibe but elevated gastronomic experience.
