    Celebrating my husband’s birthday at brunch. Food, service and ambiance were outstanding. Our server, Miles, was phenomenal. Can’t wait to return.

    As with the Pearl and Ela’s, the ambience at Celeste is outstanding. The waiter, Miles was outstanding - fun, polite, and attentive. However, also like Ela’s and the Pearl, the food falls short. We ordered the eggs sardou and the eggs were cooked perfectly. However the creamed spinach was more a heavy cream sauce with a sprinkling of spinach. Also the menu failed to note the plethora of red sliced peppers which dominated the dish. As my husband said, it was just a bit of a mess. The music was great, but unfortunately, we dine out primarily for the food, and I can’t imagine we will return to Celeste any time soon.

    This was our second time and again it was an outstanding experience. I can’t list all the reasons we both feel this way because everything was perfect. Celest is one of our top choices on the island and Bluffton. We will definitely be back soon.

    Very beautiful setting and great, attentive staff. Most of us thought our food was good but not great. Three diners had the special pear martini and LOVED it!

    We always request the booth seating at the end of the bar and as usual not disappointed. Shaneel, our server, was terrific. We had had her before and she has continued to be fantastic. The food was so good. We all tried different specials and they all were great. Love Celeste.
