This place had an awesome New York Strip! The service was excellent the waiter wasn’t at our table every second but also just seemed to know what and when we needed things! We sat in the big barrel table! A truly awesome experience! The bourbon selection was vast but they definitely had some pricy pricy pours in behind the bar but a great selection overall!

The property needs some maintenance. The front door had a sign was broken, only one stall in women's bathroom worked and then it wouldn't, so women were using men's.

We've sat at two different “in the barrel” tables. This time we had one with a glass top that wasn't even attached to the base that kept tipping when barely leaning on it. And the chairs were so uncomfortable. The other table beside it was so much better the time prior. Also, my fried green tomato appetizer was prepared incorrectly. I ordered balsamic on the side and it was put all over it. I wasn't even offered a discount on the app which was highly surprising and disappointing from what I thought was a finer dining restaurant. Also my steak was GROSSLY undercooked. Ordered medium well and it was rare inside. I would've accepted if they would've butterflied it but that was never offered as a solution. So I could only eat the perimeter which was cooked to my liking. Our waiter seemed disinterested in our table. Wasn't the best service like we've had there all other times. All in all, the meal was a bit disappointing because we are typically so happy with our dinner here. This time was a bit of a letdown. We'll be back, and hope for better next time.

Food was good but seems a bit expensive. Parking is limited and we parked down the street in a public parking lot. Atmosphere was very good and service was great. It seems to be in a rebuilding area of downtown.

My wife called over a month ago and reserved a barrel for her 36th Birthday and on the day of her dinner we were called 3 hours before to confirm and we did. When we arrived the front staff did not greet us or say anything to us. I waited like 5 minutes and finally said something. They started walking us over to a table and I said we reserved a barrel and they said no barrels were available. My wife told them she talked to them and made sure it was for a barrel. The front staff rudely said we could not have one.If it wasn’t for my wife’s Birthday I would have taken our party and left, the front staff needs retraining on how to properly greet guests. I would be embarrassed to have staff like that up front. (Curly hair) guy needs fired!The saving grace was the waiter Tom I think is his name.His service was excellent along with his recommendations. We won’t be back!

Food was wonderful. I am glad our area now has 2 restaurants that can compete with other places I have been. Service was exceptional also. My hats off to the team that puts it all together.

Server and bar were very slow. I ask for a bourbon on the rocks. He came back three times because they were out of what I asked for and then it took forever. It's just a straight pour over ice. It shouldn't take 15 minutes.

This experience has to be the best I have ever had at a restaurant. We got our barrel seat as soon as we walked in!!! The atmosphere was absolutely stunning. The privacy in the barrel is great!!! Our server Brianna was the best!!! Absolutely glowing personality and smile! She didn't hover but she made sure we were great and I'd be needed refills like the perfect combination of interactions. The food was absolutely incredible!!! The portions were large and everything was absolutely delicious. Everything was perfect!!! And the bathroom was clean and cute.

Was in Charleston for Disney on ice so we decided dinner afterwards made sense. Looked for local establishments and had it leveled down to 2 due to many other local establishments being closed weekends. We went with this one because creme brulee! Literally that's what won our choice after reviews. We had a great dining experience. Food was great- steak specifically was well seasoned and cooked to perfection! All the dishes we tried, were great other than the mashed potatoes those were kinda bland but those were kinda extra anyway. Otherwise wonderful! Loved the atmosphere, decor, service was fantastic.. my 10 yr old son gave our waitress a hug at the end of the meal this is not his norm but he was so happy and just wanted to say thank you I suppose. Anyway, if you're in the area and looking for a steak & creme brulee plus a nice dining experience I definitely recommend Bricks & Barrels.

For $60+ a plate I shouldn't be able to get a better meal at the local chain steakhouse. Poor cuts of meat not cooked correctly, reheated mashed potatoes and frozen veggies is not what was expected given the inflated prices. Service also very poor. Drinks spent more time empty than full. No checkup until check was dropped at table. Will not return.

my favorite restaurant in charleston :) it was my birthday and we enjoyed the crembrule which was divine:) Our friends ordered the charchutie board to share and to me it's the best value for your money. Excellent meal very happy ;)
