We went on a Thursday night. Our reservation was at 7:30, but we arrived at 7:00 because we wanted to sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail. The valet was very friendly. The hostess (black, straight hair) was not friendly and tersely told us that we were early for our reservation. We explained why we were early, and she just looked at us. We just told her we would wait in the bar. The bar was a little busy. The crowd was very nice... business casual, 25-40 year olds. We approached the bar and were greeted by the bartender (very short hair, tattoos on her wrist - maybe Heather was her name). There was a couple sitting at the bar with an open seat on each side. She asked them if they would mind to move over one seat so we could sit down. We were very impressed. We were fine with standing but even happier to sit. She then helped us choose our drinks. I had a yummy raspberry martini made with fresh raspberries, and my husband had a glass of wine she suggested (she allowed him to taste several). The other bartender working, a guy, early 30s, light brown hair, was great also. He and Heather(?) were fun together. Everyone at the bar seemed to know them. It was so comfortable that we were planning to stay at the bar. We decided to try a table since it was our first time. Our table was on the patio which is beautiful. However, it is so stagnant that we would never sit out there again. NO A/C!!! Our server was Dena. She was great, very informative and knowledgeable. I had the Low Country Shrimp & Scallops - Delicious, but basically $24 for 3 shrimp/3scallops and a big pile of really good grits. My husband had the Ahi Tuna - really good, adequately priced. All of their menus are great except for dessert - very boring. We decided to pass and went back to the bar. The male bartender made me an amazing banana martini, and Heather(?) helped my husband with scotch. All in all we loved it - Service was excellent and very friendly, overpriced though.
Pros: Knowledgeable staff, bar is great, service great
Cons: Poor hostess, a little overpriced, fake smile on manager
