   Though we thought expensive, the execution of food and service was superb creating value appropriate for the price. Server food knowledge and descriptions excellent. Wine paring thoughtful, delicious.

   We loved the food at Zero and the outdoor setting was lovely. I would have given 5 stars except for the fact that it was all a little precious. And why is the 4-course $65 menu not presented? We knew about it from going online but then no sight of it. Then we’re told it’s a pre-theater menu. Pre-theater in Charleston??? Just how many theaters are there in Charleston? (We’re from NY.). That said, the food we had was delicious.

   We were able to do their Saturday evening tasting menu. It was amazing. The chef was a wizard with the flavors and the pairings were excellent. This is a must-do for foodies visiting Charleston.

   This is a very special restaurant, unlike any we've experienced in Charleston. They have a multi-course tasting menu - only - so there's not a menu with a plethora of choices. But everything we were served was phenomenal; dreamed up and prepared by a true culinary genius. The service was some of the best we've experienced anywhere. Every service person was 100% professional and accommodating, while also being engaging and warm. There is no other place like this in Charleston. With high-end food and service, physical comfort and delightful ambiance, it has quickly moved into the #1 slot of our "Favorite restaurants in Charleston" list! The only caveat I might mention is that each course is tiny. We left very satisfied but were hungry about three hours later. Even so, we can't wait to go back!

   We had an excellent experience at Zero Restaurant. The food was immaculate, but it was the service that really stood out to me. Everyone from the hostess to the bartender to the waiters was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and pleasant. It is not easy to find a restaurant where the caliber of food and service match. I look forward to returning to Zero and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to a friend.

   This is an outstanding restaurant. The food, service and charming atmosphere add up to a wonderful evening. We make a point to dine there whenever we are in Charleston. I am not an "adventurous" eater, but I eat everything from the chef's menu and it never fails to wow me.

    The food was exceptional as always and I have ranted and raved After each experience here. However, it was a bit unnerving to have a very loud and inconsiderate table of 4 (clearly not locals...as determined by their accent and lack of dining room etiquette) in the middle of the very intimate and not-sound-proofed dining area. I know we are all there for the ambiance and the food, and despite anyones “occasion”...if we are having a meal and spending upwards of 400$ for a dinner for 2, I would expect that a manager would politely request a loud and noisy group to tone it down. I enjoy a good time and can get loud but this is not the place. Regards and see you soon

    We came to Zero Restaurant to celebrate my birthday dinner his last weekend and loved every aspect of our meal, service and overall experience. We have visited several times before and absolutely love this restaurant and staff so much. I highly recommend visisting and dining here, if you appreciate innovative and exciting food this will quickly become your favorite restaurant. It is decadent and sophisticated...yet still approachable.

    Went here with some friends and it was phenomenal! Drinks were awesome and the food was extraordinary! The design and decor is inviting and when you walk in - you know you’re in a special place. This is a very eclectic and wonderful place to eat. If you’re looking for something special that’s intimate - this is it! It’ll set you back a few bucks but you won’t be dissapointed!

    The ambiance is great and the staff was very friendly and competent. The food was very interesting but I was disappointed that the only option presented was a tasting menu. We didn’t have adequate time before the show to fully experience multiple courses. They were gracious and allowed us to come back for coffee after our performance.

    Of Nordic heritage and a lover of the Nordic style of fine dining, I thoroughly enjoyed Zero. The tasting menu in itself and the relaxed pace with which the meal took place was something I was looking for. The food is very good; too much happening at times for a Nordic taste, but still above the default. Really fine wine pairing. The one thing to note is the out-of-step timing btw the food and the wine on several occasions.

    Zero Restaurant + Bar is such a unique dining experience that it’s difficult to even describe. Just buckle and prepare for a crazy ride. From the initial snacks that include a potted plant, to a red cabbage and chicken liver dish that will make you always want to eat your veggies, to the most unique interpretation you’ve ever seen on “shrimp and grits”, to the perfectly cooked Beef Wellington with foie gras, this tasting menu is one to not miss. The ambiance is romantic and relaxed at the same time. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The chef is quick to make any needed adjustments to make the experience more enjoyable for his guests. Do not miss this hidden gem on your next trip to Charleston.

    The food presentation was nice but some servings were missing the flavor. The potted plant was intriguing and fun but was quite bland. Koji cured hamachi was good but surrounded by very acidic sauce. We were hoping for a true wow factor but didn't quite get that.

    Zero restaurant is beautiful and has cozy ambiance in what felt like a historic southern home. The service was amazing and their sommelier was very knowledgeable. Chef made accommodations based on my boyfriend's eating limitations and was thoughtful about it. However, I would not recommend this restaurant mainly based on value. For what we paid, we expected to be completely blown away. If the price had been lower, we would've been much more impressed, but given how expensive it was, this should have been an unforgettable meal. However, during our weekend in Charleston, we had two much better dining experiences that were much better value. All of the dishes at Zero were very much style over substance. Unique and artsy plating could not make up for how ordinary all of the food was at a place that tries very hard to be extraordinary.

    Outstanding experience. Unique and surprising courses, with perfect pairings. Only complaint is that we had to often ask the waiter to repeat himself because he spoke to fast when describing the courses.
