The atmosphere encouraged private chatter but also conversation with next table easily. Friendly and cheerful and above all excellent food served with smiles, suggestions, and ease. I will never visit Charleston again without making sure to dine here. (Do not eat the soup. I actually sent it back to the kitchen.

I sat in a bar booth and had fun interacting with the very interesting, knowledgeable server, who also was an adventurous cook at home. I sampled new things and compared dishes with other diners as they were leaving. It is my new favorite restaurant in Charleston! The interior is pretty, cheerful and bright. The oyster / bone marrow was elegant. So many good dishes. Their sister restaurant, The James, is also wonderful! It's not as upscale, but delicious, non-the-less! Somebody is doing something right!!”

If I can rate this higher than 5 stars I would, but I say, the food, the hospitality and atmosphere continue to amaze us. Our server Hannah made sure we knew the specials, the menu and food items before ordering. The fast and friendly service, prompt food service was spot on again. The quality and freshness is evident just by seeing how the food looks but the taste of fresh and wholesome is confirmed with each bite. From the biscuits, the eggs, and Ofcourse the low country comfort food of chicken/waffles & grits were really great and actually better than expected. The house infused Bloody Mary was the perfect brunch addition. If you are in the Charleston area, this is a must visit. Located just across the street to the Mills House hotel, right off Queen St is the perfect location walkable convenient access from just about any area. Yes they are dog friendly on their porch areas.”

    “We had our doubts at first seeing how scarce the restaurant was, especially given the surrounding location, but I can ASSURE you: the pictures do not do this establishment ANY justice; the food looked bland and dry, BUT LAWD was it the opposite! We purchased the Cajun bowl for $51 and they did NOT disappoint. The shrimp was juicy and cooked with love, the crab legs were certainly worth the fight into the shell— the meat was soft and cooked perfectly, AND THE POTATOES— nothing short of delicious! They'd been drenched in the juice— at the bottom of the pan along with the sausages, incredibly juicy and buttery eats, no complaints whatsoever, albeit— all the garlic balanced out the slight saltiness of the boil, but they definitely weren't shy with the cajun seasoning. It was a great 10/5 stars! I'll be going to college right up the street and will definitely be pointing my buddies this way. Jessie, the cashier, was more than kind and welcoming, the wait for the food wasn't too long at all, given the fact that the meal is made fresh in store, from what we could see it was a small, lesser-known restaurant— it was just Jessie and the cook— but they were working hard and helped out with maximum discretion. Amazing people and restaurant, will 100% be coming back for some fried rice and shrimp!”

    • Mushroom Risotto

    “I took my date to The Peacock’s rooftop for our first date, and the entire experience was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the waitstaff and management were incredibly attentive, ensuring every detail was taken care of. The chef even went out of his way to create his own unique take on a dish just for us, which made the evening that much more memorable. The level of hospitality truly set this experience apart. The entire team helped create a magical evening that I won’t soon forget. Without question, one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had in Charleston. I’ll absolutely be back.”

We were blown away with how delicious everything was, especially the scallop po boy sandwich which we highly recommend. We also ordered fried grouper and fried oysters. They do half off oysters on Tuesdays! Definitely recommend this place. This is probably the best seafood we've had in a while.”
