Our dinner at Malagon was incredibly special. We hadn’t had many opportunities to try such authentic Spanish cuisine, so we were very excited for our reservation.
We tried several small plates from the menu to share. My husband has a serious shellfish allergy, so we were sure to communicate that to our server, who had the chef speak with us about his specific restrictions, and although the kitchen is small and difficult to insure against cross-contamination, they did a wonderful job making sure our food had no contact with shellfish.
We had the Sobrasada con queso which is a bread with honey, soft chorizo, and goat cheese that was delicious. My favorite of the night was the La Bomba de la Barceloneta, a pork stuffed mashed potato “bomb” with tomato & alioli. My husband loved the Zorza de cordero marinated lamb, and Conejo al Ajillo which was roasted rabbit.
We ended our dinner with the Tarta de queso, a Basque cheese similar in consistency to a cheesecake, but much more rich and slightly sweet. Every single dish we tried was an incredible experience. We were well taken care of by the servers and kitchen staff, and the environment was intimate and buzzing with energy. It was genuinely one of my favorite dinners yet in Charleston, and we will definitely be visiting again.

Excellent tapas experience on Valentine’s Day. We got the prosciutto-wrapped dates, sobrasada with chorizo, patatas bravas, and a grouper skewer to go along with a bottle of Tempranillo. The sobrasada and tomato sauce that came with the patatas were standouts in my opinion.
It’s very small inside and the tables are very close together. It’s not too loud or anything, but perhaps a tad cramped. Regardless, I wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Celebrated my belated birthday with my husband tonight at Malagón. This was my second time dining here, but it had been many years since my last visit, and it absolutely lived up to the new Michelin Star hype.
They don’t have a full bar—beer, cider, sherry, and wine only—so if you’re craving a cocktail before dinner, I’d recommend stopping at one of the nearby spots within walking distance like we did. The restaurant itself is quite tiny, especially when the weather doesn’t allow for outdoor seating, so definitely plan ahead and make a reservation. The vibe is intimate and charming with that old-world European feel, aside from the fact that the guests are American .
The tapas-style menu ranges from small snacks to shareable plates, and it changes frequently, so don’t get your heart set on any one dish. We started with the white asparagus and anchovy sauce, the house bread with goat cheese topped with sopressata (think Spanish pizza). From there, we enjoyed the marinated pork steak, the red wine–braised beef cheek—which was both crispy and meltingly tender—and the crab squid ink rice. That rice was easily one of the best bites of food I’ve had all year.
Even though we were stuffed, we couldn’t resist dessert. The Basque cheesecake, paired with a dessert wine Nolan recommended, was otherworldly. My husband, who (unlike me) rarely gets emotional about food, literally closed his eyes and went silent mid-bite. It was that good—one of the best desserts either of us have ever had.
Yes, dining in Charleston is expensive these days, but when it’s an experience like this, every penny feels justified.

We had a wonderful dining experience this evening. The food was perfectly executed, the service was great and they have a knockout wine list. We especially enjoyed the chorizo queso, the lamb rump, the marinated grouper skewer, the tuna carpaccio, and the cheesecake is a must get. Compliments to Tripp and the team and congratulations on your star. It is well deserved.

Absolutely the best meal I’ve had all year! I’ve been meaning to try Malagon since it opened and we just never made it. The rabbit, tuna carpaccio, and the pork skirt steak were to die for. Everything was incredible, but those were the dishes I cannot stop thinking about. Very excited to go back in a few weeks! This will definitely be on the quarterly restaurant rotation.

I was so pleasantly surprised about everything in this restaurant especially because for the past 40 years of my life I have been going to Spain to visit my family so I know a thing or two about spanish food. Loved every single dish. The menu is extensive so there are many things I did not try but the ones I did were so good. 100% recommend going here. Ohh and you MUST have the basque cheesecake here, it’s out of control!

I finally came back here after a year before they received a Michelin star and the food does not disappoint. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, and the ambiance is always inviting. We brought in some of our own wines and they kindly poured it for us course by course.
We enjoyed some light meats and cheeses, then some perfectly cooked duck and beef roast that was fork tender. And to end it on a sweet note, we had the infamous basque cheesecake which was perfect.
It was a great time with friends, food and wine.

We enjoyed lunch at the bar at Malagon. All of the staff provided excellent service, and we enjoyed many of their dishes. In particular the cured red tuna belly, and the execution of the grilled grouper and lamb belly were exceptional! Fantastic amaro and wine list. Would be eager to return for lunch.

We booked this as our first Michelin Star experience for our anniversary. It surpassed all our other top favorite dining experiences. They were super kind in accommodations for our allergies. The flavors of each dish were outstanding! Thank you chef for offering this experience in Charleston. The staff and atmosphere were amazing.

The culinary creativity of this establishment is as competitive as any restaurant I’ve eaten at in the United States. The flavor and the complexity, combined with varied texture’s on the palate makes for a very impressive menu. Tasted 8 items loved them all as simple as prosciutto wrapped dates with Allmond spectacular, gonna steal the recipe.:)
Best cheesecake you will ever eat.
The wrinkled potatoes. Wow
