“Had a phenomenal experience here tonight. Managed to get a last minute reservation at the bar, the best spot where I could see all the action in the kitchen. Called less than 2 hours ahead and spoke (with I think it was Jack but I could be wrong) to the host who was great in making my reservation and then helping me with parking and everything else when I got there. Other staff were also incredible. Menu was amazing. Had an extraordinary combination of seafood and beef. Taco - amazingly fresh. Extremely flavourful bite. Tuna and seafood chips - my favourite out of the snacks, very refreshing, taste was amazing Oyster - really good, nice and warm and cheesy Capelletti - pasta itself was ok but the broth really stood out to me. Really good umami flavour. Seared scallop - my favourite out of the entire menu. Cooked perfectly and melts in mouth whilst retaining the perfect scallop texture. Flavour was incredible. Could’ve had 10 of these Rice - really unique. Really full of flavour. Never had anything like it before Sourdough - really good. Butter was good but I think maybe a flavoured one would’ve also really worked Ny strip - this was great. Beef cooked perfectly and the fatty edges crisp and juicy. The oxtail bread pudding was interesting, I really liked the texture and flavour but it’s probably more controversial Charleston chewie - really good. Loved the flavours of the strawberry mixed with shortbread. Not too sweet”

“Really enjoyed our dinner here! The service was impeccable. Christina and the rest of the staff were very attentive and friendly! The food was amazing and the vibes were top tier!”

“This place was full of flavor and surprisingly delicious combinations. Compliments to the team for such a delightful menu. Staff was beyond attentive and always making sure we had a perfect experience. If you are on the fence about this place it earned its Michelin star for a reason, the flavors are unmatched, the vibe and style is top notch, the tasting menu is diverse and unique but has food everyone can enjoy. This will not be a miss. This is a must visit in Charleston. Every bite will leave you excited for the next but also sad that it won’t last forever. Delicious.”

“The food lived up to the hype! I was most impressed with the drink service. We had one boozey cocktail and the spirit free pairing. The drinks were top notch.”

“This. Is. It. Imagine your Michelin star experience, in small town local feel. Caleb made us feel like we were celebrities. From the decor, lighting, attention to detail, staff, food, and vibes, this place deserved their star. The tasting menu was explained every step of the way for us, we were offered complimentary drinks because they were slightly late on seating us. They offered non alcoholic options without having to ask for it. Within 2 mins of sitting down, a different server came to ask my wife if she needed a purse hook noticing it was on the ground. The food speaks for itself. The lobster Chawanmushi was my personal favorite with insanely perfectly steamed egg, balanced flavors, well seasoned, textured well, umami just blaring through this dish. Baked oysters weren’t too big, not too cheesy, and had intense layers of flavor for a rockerfeller. The friend chicken wing croquettes were probably our least favorite, though still good, it lacked any wowing depths of flavor or taste. Tortellini was perfectly cooked, not mushy. Peas still had a decent crisp to them which is so rare. Pairing with mushrooms kept the umami flavors exploding. The seared halibut I would’ve liked a better sear on, but it was flaky, butter, seasoned through, and the rice bed soaked up nicely with the glaze over top. Nice light and balance to the other bursting flavors. Sourdough as a palette cleanser, came out warm, soft. Butter was too salty though. NY strip was perfectly cooked, tender, and paired well with savory sauce. The tart while appealing, did not add much to the dish and felt out of place. The oxtail paired with chickpeas and the crumbly tart made it have a kind of powdery grainy texture. Chocolate mouse ball cake may had been best we’ve ever had. Light, sweet but not overly sweet. The drinks were amazing too! We did not do the pairing, but the drinks before we sat were elegant and just different than your regular bar drink. This is for the foodie at heart, it may not make you super full physically, but from the flavors, complexity of tastes, and the experience, it’s an absolute must try here in Charleston. We cannot harp on the impressive service and attention here enough.”
