Charleston does capture true Charleston, SC feel. If you don't like it, don't visit Charleston, SC. Seated 30min late and hostess simply commented ""typical Sat night"". Server was polite but nesty hair was horrendous. First course was wonderful, then downhill. Tenderloin was too smokey and pork was missing ingredient (fresh cranberries the server raved about) and too tough to cut. When I told someone, he said, ""everyone has commented how tender it is."" I realize meat's condition is a variable beyond control but don't respond with other praise. Asked for salad instead - dressing was mostly salt. Ordered ice cream - only one flavor was right. Server giggled and stated flavors change so frequently it's hard to keep up. Grande finale was neighboring table telling server he couldn't drink the coffee because milk was curdled. Save time and money and drive down to DC to truly experience fine dining.
Pros: Ambiance, Wine List
Cons: Lacking Flavors, Service, Inconsistency
