Side note – one person in our party was gluten free and the dishes that weren’t gluten free – they had an option to make it that way. So good!
Jay is a great sommelier…he know how to pair great wines and is passionate about his craft.
The food…
THE FOOD!!!
So good. What a great variety of amazing flavors!
Do yourself a favor and find a way to check this place out!
I’m the only plant based person in our party of 5, so my meal was, for all except 2 courses, different than theirs. Except for the salad, everything was so overly salty and fatty. So rich, in fact, that I could eat my last 3 courses because my stomach was upset. The dinner started at 6:30 and we got up from the table 3.5 hours later…it was an hour after being seated that we received the first course of bread. (I had crackers). It took forever between courses.
They brought out the wrong dish to my son for one of the courses, and he sat without his meal while the rest of ate until they brought out the correct dish.
The staff was pleasant and the dining room is lovely.. it just wasn’t the experience I was hoping for. For a $1500 + meal ( or any price, really), I was expecting more.
As soon as we were seated, our head server Matthew and HG recognized us from our previous dinner when the space was still Charleston Grill last July. We were thrilled to see that management had kept them on — they’re both true assets to the team. Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do.
The dinner was a four-course experience, and it truly lived up to our expectations. Matthew started us off with an amuse-bouche — a tomato consommé shot that absolutely blew us away. For the first course, I had the crab salad while my wife had the cold soba, both beautifully presented and full of delicate, balanced flavors.
Next, I had the butter-poached lobster with squash purée and lobster foam — an absolute standout. The lobster was tender and rich, and the sweetness of the squash complemented it perfectly. My wife had the scallops with roasted Brussels sprouts, cooked flawlessly with incredible flavor.
For the main course, I chose the roasted duck — perfectly seared with crispy skin and tender meat that paired wonderfully with the plum sauce. My wife opted for the miso cod. She enjoyed it but wished the kale chips were a bit crispier and thought the flavor profile could use a little more balance.
The final course, a Baked Alaska, was a delightful surprise. It was different in the best way — Chef Humm managed to incorporate a Charleston touch with flavors like pineapple and a “cola granita”-style component that felt very Southern. HG did an outstanding job with the presentation as well.
Overall, it was truly an experience to remember — one for the books. The price point felt reasonable for the quality and creativity. We just hope the menu changes soon so we have an excuse to come back. Congratulations to Chef Humm and his team — keep doing what you do best. See you soon!
Service was 3.5 hours on a 5 pm dinner ress, incredibly too long as we weren’t drinking and ordering. Also charged us an extra $10 for the wrong bottle of wine, again not fretting about the amount but details matter.
3 people in for $900 with a tip for tasting menu, half bottle of champagne, and a caviar portion. Way better options in Charleston at a cheaper price point. Circa 1886, Volpe, honeysuckle rose. Let the pop up expire and do not go!
The laminated bread was straight out of the 11 Madison Park playbook.
If you’re a meat eater and intimidated by some of the plant-based offerings, don’t be. You’ll find them more approachable and familiar than you think, and leave full and content. Unsurprising given that Daniel Humm practically pioneered plant-based cuisine at this level. The celery root schnitzel was outstanding.
The ricotta gnudi was nutty, buttery and rich in all the best ways. Can’t recommend enough.
The wine list is extensive, detailed and exhaustive. You WILL find exactly what you’re looking for regardless of varietal or region.
The service was phenomenal, as can be expected from the chef of a three Michelin star restaurant. Our server was wonderfully attentive, accommodating and kind. I mean, where else do they offer you a pashmina for your shoulders just in case you’re cold and don’t want to put on a heavy jacket?
Honestly, the price point is entirely acceptable for a Michelin-level experience. Solid value for $ that would otherwise run you $300+/person in other cities. We’re lucky to have this here.
