    Eat there several times a year. Really appreciate their wine list. Wide variety of very good wines at reasonable prices. So many of Charleston's nicest restaurants have really over priced their wines. Can't find a bottle under $70. Always order the market priced seafood and it is always great. Enjoy all the different preparations.

    Enjoyed a reasonably priced (for Charleston) meal. Disappointed in the crispy pork belly appetizer which was not at all crispy but our friend said her French Onion soup was the best she'd ever had. Definitely have the truffle fries too! We would return and try some different main entre items.

    It was very busy because of a show next door. We had to wait even with a reservation. However, the management and our server both worked hard to get us in so that we could get to the concert on time. Food was great.

    Cute bistro, decent prices, good service. Nice cocktails and decent pour on the wine glasses. Liked the escargot, also great bread. Mussels pistou well cooked but sauce a bit overwhelming. Shrimp provencale over pasta with nice pernod garlic butter sauce. Unfortunately, our lovely first impressions were very tainted by a visit to the DISGUSTING BATHROOMS. Both gender bathrooms (husband and wife checked them out) looked like they had barely been wiped down, dirt and dust and drips in all the corners and edges, just turned our stomachs...

    Server was great, very nice and attentive. I ordered the special of the night, wasn’t even a 3oz piece of fish for $38. My husbands scallops were over cooked and only 4 scallops. Nice atmosphere and kind staff. Sorry for not great review.

    Melissa was a very good waitress, even though it was only her fourth day. Need more team players like her.
