This restaurant is quaint. About 10 tables in all. It's best to make reservations. The menu changes weekly if not daily. Food is all locally sourced. We had the crudite with large beats, radishes, bok Choy and Carrots with pimento cheese made with garlic. I had the scallops with a fennel salad and buttermilk dressing. My husband had the terrace major medium rare with wild mushrooms. Everything was cooked to perfection. For dessert we had strawberries with olive oil cake. My husband loved it, I on the other hand was not in love with it. It's upscale, but casual dress is fine. This restaurant serves different proteins daily. We went in for rabbit, but it was not on the menu. Call if you want to know what is on the menu for that day. For me I like to be surprised. Outdoor seating is available.

My girlfriend and I go here occasionally and have always had wonderful food and service. Quaint but upscale feel with a rotating menu of locally sourced food. Drink menu and wine selection are also great.

Actually I didn't come to eat to this place, I went to the Brooklyn pizza place next to it.I'll give all the stars possible because I saw it full at the time and people looked happy. That is a good sign.Next time I go to Pendleton I'll stop there, but in the meantime Google Maps, stop tagging me at the wrong places. Thanks.

Food is wonderful-- brought my family when they came to town and everyone was floored! Tasted like good food we have had abroad-- everything we could have asked for! The menu has some more experimental options as well as plenty of classics! The restaurant itself is gorgeous and the service was great! Such a hidden gem and a delightful place to dine.

We ordered the appetizer special, roasted peppers. They were delicious and different from options offered in other local restaurants. My husband ordered the mussels, which were cooked in a Thai basil curry broth. The mussels were perfectly prepared, and the broth was very flavorful. I ate the grilled meatloaf, which was served with mirepoix and zucchini. Again, this dish did not disappoint! We will definitely be back for dinner in the near future.

Nice eclectic menu. Very obvious fresh ingredients. Quaint atmosphere. Small snafu in service well taken care of after it occurred. Metro quality food in a small town. Well done.

The food is very good, but small portions. Menu is very limited and they didn't give a side with the steak. Potatoes would have been a nice compliment. I got fish and grits. There were hardly any grits sitting under the fish. They don't offer domestic beer and their liquor is limited as well. I gave 3 stars because the portions are small, no side with steak, limited drink options!

Delicious dinner. Great ambience. We took our daughter and three of her friends from Clemson and loved it. They even held our table as we were running late. Special place.

How in the name of all that is holy does this rest gets good reviews is beyond me. I’m sitting on the patio which is nice and quiet. This is the was the loudest rest I have ever not enjoyed. What should have been a nice dinner with friends not seen for a while was the worst dining experience I have ever had. I would have rather have take my money and flushed it down the toilet. I had the pasta and scallops. I had 3 slivers I of scallops smaller than a Chik-Fil-A nugget. Don’t believe me…have at it

Excellent service and fresh, rotating menu. Paloma and margarita are the best drinks we’ve ever had.

This is the best fine dining in the region, yet it's not stuffy. The small, regularly changing menu is mostly gluten free, mostly local, and always wonderful. Eat outside on the quaint patio if you can (and enjoy the view of Pendleton Square), as the small inside can get loud. Cocktails and wine list are lovely, and don't miss the chocolate mousse.Dietary restrictions: Many great options for gluten free!
