“I just ordered from this location (12-6-23 at around 2:25pm) for the first time ever, and I was so taken aback with regard to how friendly and jovial the staff members were! Ashley, Clayton, and Jendaya helped me with my order, and they were all just so nice and fun to be around. Even though my wait wasn’t long at all, mind you, they were dealing with several orders, I found myself leaving there in a better mood because of those ladies! It’s not often you go into a a sub joint and find yourself surrounded by infectious, wonderful personalities. I sure hope that this review is read by management bc these three ladies deserve some much-deserved attention! Thank you, ladies, for making my day!”

She wanted to get for me exactly what I’d like and was extremely good at how she operated. The server was very pleasant and quick. The food was delicious. Napkins were included, thank goodness. So many fast food places forget that and it drives me crazy! Sonic, you’re doing an excellent job!”

“Genuinely some of the best food I've had ever, I'm still dreaming about the beet and burrata salad, radiatore, and the chocolate cremeux dessert. Rarely are dishes so good I'm motivated enough to even try to recreate but days after the burrata salad I did just that (ofc it wasn't as good as the original). The chocolate cremeux was the dessert of my dreams: the perfect saltiness of the cookie with the creaminess of the marshmallow and chocolate was absolute heaven. I'm just sad I can't go back right away since we visited Charleston only briefly.”

“Me and my husband recently stopped in at Doar brother's while exploring downtown Charleston. We sit at the bar, the atmosphere inside was very relaxing and almost romanatic with dim candle lights and soft music. The hostess, who was also the bartender, was very welcoming, informative, and very pleasant and fun to talk with. She was very good at her craft, a drink artist, all of our drinks were as beautiful as they were delicious. Out of all the bars we had drinks at in downtown, it was our favorite for vibe and drink quality, especially for the price point. We even came back at the end of the night to have another round of drinks before heading back to our room, this time we had a male bartender and he was equally as good at his job and pleasant as his female counterpart.We had a very pleasant experience and will definitely stop in again while in charleston!”

It's comforting to know that as things change in Charleston the food hasn't here at the wild Olive. Everything about it was so fantastic, the flood of memories coming back of how delicious the food is. Especially my favorite the smash fried garlic, aïoli potatoes. This side dish is indescribably great. I hadn't seen Jason and all this time, but he still remembered me. This truly is a gem of Charleston. You must try!!!”

So creative and a great use of seasonal and local produce. You can tell there’s so much thought and care put into each dish. Expect to spend about $80 a person, but it’s so worth it.Our waiter was incredible and made our night so much better! Definitely get the butterscotch pudding if they still have it on their menu! :)”

It was so flavorful. I do not have one negative thing to say about Fig. It was crowded but reservations go fast. We luckily booked close to a month in advance. Service was incredible. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who visits Charleston.”
