   We had the best server! Kolby was on it with the service and recommendations. A very friendly staff. The manager came over to say hi too. We talked Southern Charm and got the scoop. All around a great experience.

   Rooftop bar was great. John, was wonderful and tweaked our drinks to make them perfect. Loved being up there. Dining room was a great disappointment. I had chicken and waffles. Chicken was over cooked and dark brown. Tasted burnt. 1/2 a waffle. My husband had crawfish and etouffee. No noticeable crawfish visually or taste wise. I know it was Mother’s Day and we had a 12:45 reservation but didn’t think you were out of food and kitchen was closing. Disappointing Mother’s Day for me.

   Unfortunately, we have to report that this was not a great visit. After many visits in the past for Sunday Brunch at Stars, we learned on this occasion that there was a new Chef and new menu. To be as nice as possible, no complaints on the food taste, but the serving size and price was an unpleasant surprise. We left hungry for an expensive brunch. I am sorry but we will not venture here again.

   We needed a quick group lunch place in between graduation events and we chose Stars. We were in and out of the restaurant in about an hour. The food was delicious and they had live music. We enjoy it.

   The food was not up to par. The wine on tap was not good. It didn’t live up to what we expect of Charleston cuisine.

   Food was outstanding, my husband had the 18oz ribeye and I had the 10oz Culotte. We also had the hoisin barbecue ribs which the bartender highly recommended and the Panzanella salad. Service was impeccable his name was Brandon and we will be return guests on our next visit.

    Loved that this restaurant offered a 'Jazz Brunch' and was centrally located. The staff was friendly, the interior and rooftop were intriguing, and it had a feel of cleanliness. The brunch included a saxophonist, which was a great addition to the overall theme of the 'New Orleans style brunch'. The chicken and waffles were delicious--chicken breading and flavor perfect match to the liege waffle--a way to improve it, warm syrup :) Two of the people in our group ordered steak and eggs, overall great but the egg cooking preference was switched. The coffee was very strong and frozen mimosa was served in a small rock tumbler. Little things that could be addressed for higher quality experience, but there were more pros than cons.

    Very very loud & food was NOT good. Had to send the steaks back they were raw! It was slammed & many bachelor & bAchelorette parties walking through & smashing up against our table to get up to rooftop bar. For a $500 bill the food was NOT worth it! Will never return!

    Made reservations months ago for a birthday celebration, got notified upon seating that there’s a new chef and a new menu. Not the best options, dishes could taste better, steak was burned on one side and raw on the other, honestly will not be back. Way too loud and the seating arrangement was not the best. The waiter did a good job though.

    This was one of our favorite restaurants during our 4 night stay in Charleston! The rooftop bar is nice but there really is not much of a view. The drinks were very good and it was a nice way to spend some time waiting until we could be seated at the restaurant downstairs. The food was amazing! The menu is changed regularly, most ingredients are sourced locally so it's a very seasonal menu. Our waitress was outstanding and her recommendations spot on. We would not have ordered the spare ribs appetizer unless she had suggested it, and they were incredible. The veal special was outstanding, probably the best veal I have ever eaten. And the desserts did not disappoint. All in all, an outstanding experience.

    Sorry to say I was a little disappointed. First, although we'd had reservations for a couple of weeks, the gentleman checking us in looked and looked, and took several minutes to act like he found our names, and when he did, he sort of hemmed and hawed and said "sorry the high top table is all we have", when I believe I'd requested a booth when I made the reservation, and he made no mention of it, and acted like he was just working us in. Then our nice server informed us there was a new chef they were all "so excited" about, but the menu was not great. Very, very limited for a nice restaurant like this. We probably won't be back; too many other good options in downtown Charleston.

    Its been a long time since we’ve dined at Stars and that will change. The service was impeccable- from Billy managing the front through Robert serving us- it was great. A shout-out to Chef Tom and the new menu. The food was tasty and well-presented. Preparation was wonderful. Wine list was augmented with tap wines which were perfect for our meal. Can’t wait to return!

    We’ve usually love the drinks and food - start to finish. We visited for Saturday brunch— the Crawfish Etoufee and Steak and Eggs were phenomenal (minus the group of extremely loud and tipsy ladies across the dining room). We returned a week later for dinner on Friday only to find a very limited menu with about 4 entrees and only 1 seafood entree (w/ 2-3 scallops!). This was disappointing since fresh seafood is literally around the corner and the menu normally includes a balance of light and heavier dishes. When we asked about the new menu…we learned there is a new chef. I “settled” on the bolognese which had good flavor but still seemed off character for Starz and overpriced at $40. We wont cancel it yet but we will give the new chef time to settle on a menu before returning. We expect more seafood options on the coast. Please expand the menu to include more surf and turf!

    The menu was very limited, not a “garden salad” type option at all. A beet salad was $18. 😮 The scallop dishes at our table (3 of 6 entrees) were very salty, and scallops are naturally salty. I would likely not return for the food, but maybe a drink. Service and ambiance were good.

    Very limited menu. We had 7 total and everyone ordered something different so we basically tasted most of the menu offerings. Nothing was overly exceptional. We have dined here several times over the years and always had a great experience with food and ambiance. Although, the service and ambiance were exceptional as always, we will have to rethink dining again unless the menu gets better.

    Big table of 8, with a reason for 8:45pm… they told us at 10 we couldn’t order dessert? Even tho we had a big dinner bill. They asked us to clear out and a move our table. Our steaks were good but the potatoes were cold.

    We changed out reservation from Felix to Stars because of the exceptional meal that we had during restaurant week. But, I have to say this time was a major let down. I understood that they were short staffed in the kitchen. But the menu choices weren’t that great. They were for sure saved by their taste. The service was super slow but there weren’t many tables filled at all. Will for sure come back, hope to have a better experience though next time.
