I’ll say, absolutely phenomenal!!! Well worth the money. I had the opportunity to eat here for prom with a friend of mine. The food was jaw dropping and the service was very friendly. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I can’t wait to eat here again in the future!! I also recommend getting a reservation too.

A very special place for special memories. My husband and I celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary at Laury’s. Our server, James, made a great dinner recommendation with the Steak Diane which had two fillet mignon medallions, with a wonderful mushroom sauce and side. The fillets were sooo good! The food portions are huge and well worth the price. The evening ended with a flaming bananas foster dessert – scrupulous! Beautiful decor and ambiance during the Christmas holidays.

My wife wanted to go here for our anniversary. She has never been and I hadn’t been for 25 years or more. Good or bad, nothing’s really changed since the last time I was here. The menu is basically the same. The decor is pretty much exactly as I remember it. That’s good if you really like it. It’s not so good if you like something more modern. Truthfully everything about this restaurant is dated. Ít feels like Trung tự impress your prom date in 1984.
The food is okay. Ít tastes good but not great. Ít looks good but not great. It’s “okay”. Unfortunately, for the price, “okay” isn’t good enough.
I ordered the veal scaloppini piccata. At first, the capers were overpowering and the sauce was too thin for the pasta. As it cooled, the sauce thickened a little and the flavors blended and was much more pleasant. The veal was seasoned well and was tender but wasn’t visually appealing. It’s breaded but somehow came out grey.
My wife had the duck. The menu says it’s half a duck. I’ve cooked plenty of duck and this was not a half duck. She was served two legs, a thigh, and half a breast. There was plenty of food and the flavors were good so, nothing to complain about other than the description isn’t accurate.
She also ordered the escargot. On the plus side, they weren’t chewy like they sometimes are. However, they were completely lost in the cheese mixture. I tried one and wasn’t even sure I’d gotten anything but cheese and garlic in my bite.
I had the fried goat cheese salad which was probably my favorite part of the meal.
They offered us a free dessert for our anniversary which was nice. We picked the blackberry cobbler a la mode. If I were asked to write an advertisement for it, I guess I would call it unique. Typically, cobblers come in one of two types: a pie-type gobble which is fruit covered in a sweet biscuit-like topping, or a cake-type with a batter and fruit mixture baked into a most cakey dish. This was neither. This was a loose fruit compote mixed with what appeared to be dense, doughy dumplings, as if the chef cut noodles out of a pie crust and cooked it with the fruit. The effect was not pleasant to eat. Although I don’t like an overly sweet dessert, the blackberries really need more sugar. Without enough sugar, blackberries are bitter. The cobbler was the low point of the meal and the only dish we really didn’t like.
The service was good. The staff friendly and less formal than I remember from the past. Laury’s has a reputation for being “the” fine dining experience in Charleston. That doesn’t really come across in the experience, though. I would like to see them update the menu and the decor. They are a piece of Charleston history but, unless you really are stuck in the 80s, there are fine dining options in Charleston with better food, a more modern menu, and an overall better experience.

Usually you can get a sense of a place by reading the reviews, but Laury’s reviews are so mixed I was very interested in what I would find here. The restaurant itself is beautiful with a high ceiling, grand chandeliers, an ornate double staircase and huge windows that provide a lovely riverfront view. The hostess who greeted us was delightful stuffy (not in a rude or condescending way) and reminded me of old Frazier episodes (if you know, you know). I personally appreciated the effort put forth by the wait staff to bring a level of sophistication and elegance to the dining experience. It is a fading art. I enjoyed the classic menu, ordering the escargot, Caesar salad and crispy duck. The food was delicious, hot and freshly prepared. There is a fantastic wine selection. This establishment is not catering to the new era “foodie” but rather to people looking for the classic fine dining experience. I look forward to dining here again.

Laury’s dining experience was exceptional. My husband and I ate there while in town for a business convention. The food was delicious and the service excellent. It was fine dining at its best. The restaurant itself is beautiful as well. This was our second visit to Laury’s together and Lord willing not our last.

We came to Laury’s for dinner thanks to online search recommendations. We are so glad we found this restaurant. Beautiful location, in a historic building across from the river, with great views of it. Very elegant and classy restaurant, pretty decor and ambiance. The service was very attentive and not stuffy. To compliment it all there was the food, everything was made very well and tasted so good. Also, it is one of the few fine restaurants anywhere that still prepares table side dishes, like the Caesar salad and the banana fosters that we ordered. They have a full bar, a large wine selection, and several options for port by the glass. We were surprised that it was not overpriced like many restaurants at this level. We would love to come back!!!!

First time here to this elegant resturant. Stacy, the host, seated us near a window looking out towards the city. We started with a glass of wine and a well made dirty Martini by Patrick. No appetizers this day. Our server was Mo. She was so good, and attentive. Her smile and friendliness added to a super night celebrating my wife’s birthday. My Mrs had the Petit Fillet Mignon with mashed potatoes. She also had the creamed spinach. It was the first time I saw her “clean her plate” it was that good, she said.
I had the Veal Piccata over linguine. Lots of capers and delicious flavor. For sides we ordered the Artichoke Au Gratin. You’ve got to try this one!
Also, I always have to try Mac n Cheese. It was made with large spring pasta and definitely different cheeses. It was good. We finished with a Pretzel Brownie with Vanalla Bean ice cream. It was on the house for her birthday. All in all, we would rate this the finest resturant in the entire Charleston area. We love trying resturants over the years and have traveled extensively. This is one if those that fits into our top five.

Fantastic dining experience for my wife’s birthday. Upon arrival we quickly realized we was under dressed, never being before we was unaware the atmosphere.
Service was spot on, the cuisine was so flavorful and delicious. 10/10

Very elegant place and atmosphere. The food was out of this world! Pictured is the lobster bisque, the shrimp, scallop and crab Diablo and the cheesecake. All of it was phenomenal! My husband had their filet mignon and it was tender and just melted in your mouth. All around, the experience, our waiter and our food was fantastic and well worth the price.

Great atmosphere – really beautiful inside, with a variety of delicious fine dining entrees and attentive, friendly service. They offer souffles on their dessert menu – be sure to let them know ahead of time as they take 40 minutes to prepare but they are well worth the wait. The restaurant is right on the river with an excellent view of the water.
