Bistronomy by Nico Downtown
Look for dishes like duck confit steamed buns, tuna tartare, escargot dumplings, and steak du boucher on Bistronomy’s menu, which Romo developed as an homage to the food he’s cooked since arriving in Charleston in 2007.

We have been to Nico's in Mt. Pleasant a number of times and the food, service and ambiance is.excellent. although the food and service was superb the.location with finding a parking space and noise level is not acceptable. We expected better.
We had another amazing meal and fantastic time! Justin was an excellent server that took exceptional care of us. The meal was off the chart good! Customer service excellence to say the least! We’ll be back soon!
Really good cassoulet. Enjoyed the night. Good service
Beautiful spot awesome food and top notch servers.
Went there for my daughter's bday. Food was awesome, great service and ambience.
We will definitely be back!!
This is the 2nd time we have dined here and the 2nd time we have loved our experience...Justin was our waiter and couldn’t have been more knowledgeable and helpful while we celebrated a family birthday.
My only recommendation would be candles on the table and some banquette for the table(it’s French, after all). However the banquette on the menu...highly reco as well. Thank you Bistronomy!
Delicious food...great service.
Great as always!! Love the wine selection!!
Lovely outside patio setting, warm and cozy, even on a chilly February night. Food was delicious, and service was top notch. We even received a quick wine lesson, and learned something new about how to select French wines! Perfect night off for a couple of moms looking to relax. Thank you!
I always go to another downtown restaurant just for their crème brûlée...but Bistronomy is the top winner in my book! Because we were celebrating a birthday, had to order the chocolate mousse as well. I actually put the two on my spoon together and ooh la la! The braised lamb shank is absolutely terrific, very tender! Highly recommend Bistronomy! Service was perfect...we were well taken care of and even met Chef Nico on the way out. Will definitely return to try the octopus and already made a reservation at Nico’s in Mt. P for another bday celebration!! :)
Food was amazing will be back so many more things on the menu to try had a lamb shank special over lo mein and the muscles for an appetizer.
Great everything!!!!!!!!
excellent service and food
we tried 4 or 5 small plates all were outstanding
especially the pate'
a little pricey but worth it
The food was good but with all the options you have in Charleston this wouldnt even make my top 15 list.
The food was sublime, service on point...the manager even brought an appetizer because he said "the kitchen is dragging a bit." We had a lovely French Pinot Noir suggested by the server...all in all a FANTASTIC experience!
We definitely will go back!
One word. INCREDIBLE! the food is phenomenal and the drinks were even better! Special shout-out to Justin, our waiter, he was attentive, engaging & knowledgeable! Will definitely be returning!
Delicious meal and amazing service. I would highly recommend Bistronomy to anyone.
The managers and owners are hands on and it shows! Everything is done well.
Amazing food, incredible top notch service. You can find a more perfect combination.
Had dinner on Valentines Day. This was my first time at this restaurant.
Overall experience was very good. I would definitely recommend Bistronomy to friends and family.
We love this restaurant. There was a small problem this time. The mussels were teeny, tiny...and some weren't opened. I have ordered mussels everywhere, here and overseas. I have never had these little tiny slivers.
The cassoulet was wonderful, the mousse was to die for. I liked the cocktail of the day which was sweet and sour.
Jeff was amazing.
The food and service was outstanding! We can’t wait to go back again!
Amazing. Food , service , cleanliness
Great Covid protocol
Will definitely be back
Everything was wonderful from the curry crab soup and farm salad appetizers to the gruyere burger with fois gras and the scallops with coconut rice. I wish we had saved room for dessert, but we'll have to save room the next time we go back. Also, the Aviation cocktail was fantastic. First time I had one, but it won't be my last.
First time there. Excellent!!
EXCELLENT!! But I think Nico's is still my personal favorite :)
Absolutely an amazing dining experience! Eclectic menu with something for everyone. Delicious appetizers and drink specialties. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.
Always love coming here! The food is great but the Som,Andres makes it a special dining experience !!!!!!
I made a reservation for Valentine’s weekend and the wife and I were not let down. Every plate was delicious and well balanced. Our waiter (I believe his name was Brandon) was friendly, attentive, and added to the experience. If we lived closer to Charleston this restaurant would be one of our regulars.
Great food and experience. Highly recommend for any occasion.
Scallops and lobster was amazing! As were the banana gelato profiteroles!! Can’t wait to g
Food was delicious and our server Jeff was excellent. Great experience!
Great service, good quality food and safe environment
Bistronomy is a beautiful restaurant with the best food by Nico! We had an amazing time and can't wait to go back.
Everything was amazing!!
We came in from a chilly Charleston evening & were immediately greeted by the most delicious aromas from the kitchen, the spirit of happy diners filled the atmosphere & Nico welcomed us like we were family. Dinner was beyond delicious,creatively prepared with freshest ingredients & an endless variety of tasty mushrooms. Best Cassoulet I ever had. Pleasing wine selection, hope it expands in future. Wait staff friendly & attentive. This was our first “official” meal, as we moved to Charleston that day. And we decided due to our very positive experience that Bistronomy will become one of our favorite neighborhood dining establishments!! Viva Nico.
Fabulous spot with high degree of personal service and awesome atmosphere. We had a drink at the bar and also enjoyed the intimate and cozy patio that was nice and warm on a chilly night. Can’t wait to go again
Bistronomy is a wonderful spot! Excellent staff, and the food is spectacular! We sat at the bar on 2 occasions and Hanna took care of us. She’s awesome and a super hard worker with a fantastic attitude!! We already have our next reservations scheduled!!
Perfect dining experience! Great date night place
Took my adult daughters for an outdoor socially distanced dinner. The food was great, as was our server. Will be back!
