It's been a few years since we'd been to the Post House... and that was a mistake. I had forgotten just how good the food and atmosphere is there. My wife had the shrimp cavatelli and I had the braised short rib dinner. Both were amazing. We also enjoyed the cornbread before and the hummingbird cake afterwards. However, as good as the food and atmosphere were last night, it was the staff that put it over the top. We were very fortunate to have Morgan as our server. He went above and beyond. He seemed to just sense when to show up without ever being there too often. At the end, we had a very lovely chat with him on the way out. If you haven't been to the Post House, you have no idea what you're missing. It's a little off the beaten path in old town Mt Pleasant, but well worth the visit!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ O-Ku never disappoints! I’ve been coming here for years, and the food, drinks, and service are consistently top-tier! We had another amazing experience last night, and our server was absolutely phenomenal. So attentive, friendly, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of! The food is always incredible, and the Sugar & Spice cocktail is my absolute go-to. SO good! You can always count on O-Ku for a wonderful dining experience. Easily one of my favorite spots, and I can’t recommend it enough!

Another amazing dinner at The Establishment on November 3rd! The food was scrumptious, the service top-notch, and the experience - as always - was outstanding. Our server was Michael; he and the rest of the team anticipated and took care of our every need; every dining experience there is extra special. The Establishment is, by far, my favorite restaurant in downtown Charleston. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Our waiter, Eric (I hope I got it right — he’s been there for 10 years) was fantastic. He was very helpful with recommendations and his service was attentive without being annoying. Shared the shrimp and grits — which deserve the award the restaurant won — and fried green tomatoes. Entree was crab cakes, which were delicious. Portions were ample. Nice wine selection. Chill vibe.

We completely enjoyed our experience at Burwell’s Stone Fire Grill! The food was delicious and our server was fantastic! The atmosphere is amazing, and yes, it could be a bit loud. However, it didn’t affect our experience at all:)

Thank you again for a wonderful dining experience and evening. Johnny was an amazing server and recommendations were exactly what I was looking for. I appreciated the warm and welcoming hospitality of everyone with whom I spoke to at the restaurant. The focaccia bread was a dream-crispy on the outside, fluffy and chewy on the inside, it only made more enjoyable by the whipped ricotta and apple butter that accompanied it. Johnny also asked the kitchen to prepare a small version of their Caesar salad for me and the toasted bread crumbs were a nice crunch to the smooth dressing. I followed Johnny’s suggestion and ordered the roasted sweet potato Agnolotti and I was delighted with the tiny pockets of dough filled with a creamy sweet potato filling and the sauce. Oh, the sauce! Pecans, balsamic, ricotta, pecorino Romano and just a hint of Aleppo pepper made a rich, but not too rich, sauce that I was so glad to have focaccia to sweep it up off the plate with! I ended my meal with a scoop of the vanilla gelato, which was so smooth and so creamy, a wonderful ending to an unforgettable meal.
