- DDanielleNew York City •2 reviews5.0Dined todayThe food was terrific. We arrived for our reservation early and enjoyed some HH drinks and apps at the bar. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks and the menu. We ended up having dinner at the bar too and taking the recommendations of the bar staff. I would certainly return and recommend this restaurant to others.More infoCoast Bar & Grill – CharlestonPrice: Moderate• Seafood• Downtown Charleston•4.4

- DDonSouth Carolina •43 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe have lived in Charleston for 24 years and this is our first visit to this restaurant. It was one of the best meals we’ve had in the city. Delicious food, both French and American and a great place to eat. We were right next-door to the music venue we were going to. The service was superb. I recommend those who have just come to Charleston and who might have been here a while, but not gone yet to try this place out. You will not be disappointed.More info39 Rue de Jean - CharlestonPrice: Expensive• French• Downtown Charleston•4.4
- MMegVirginia •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoEric was very helpful with my gluten allergies. My husband ordered Shrimp and Grits and the waiter recommended the mini versus dinner size portion which is quite large. My Risotto and scallops were delicious. The Pear salad was quite good and was plentiful with cranberries, gorgonzola and toasted pecans. The ambiance was delightful with a piano man playing Christmas Carols.More infoThe Swamp Fox at the Francis Marion HotelPrice: Moderate• Southern• Downtown Charleston•4.4
