Went for Saturday brunch. Tried a lot of things. Quality of ingredients and preparation were all exceptional; the flavors were all very good but few were “to die for”. Nothing here would make me go out of my way to return except the biscuits, but I was not disappointed by anything either. I would be very happy to return.
* Biscuits with butter are free – perhaps the best biscuits I’ve ever had, anywhere
* Fried green tomatoes – very good
* She crab soup – incredibly delicious! But I’ve only had this once before, so cannot really compare
* Biscuits and gravy – gravy was fine but not great – would not pay for this again (just eat the plain biscuits)
* Shrimp and grits – very good, I’ve had better
* Short rib omelette – very good, I’ve had better
* Chicken and waffles – very good, I’ve had better
* Chicken fried pork chop – very good
* Homestyle potatoes (came with above) were delicious – well done, and a great mild red pepper sauce
Charming location and building - it fits every Charleston expectation one would have for an old southern home converted into a restaurant. Fireplaces in every room, limited number of tables give it the intimacy many want. I'm pregnant and have a horrible aversion to chicken....and unfortunately many of the menu brunch items I would have ordered were chicken...so I struggled for an actual lunch item. I settled on the baby kale pimento cheese Caesar salad and a cup of the she crab soup. Husband got the traditional breakfast. I loved the salad - the pickled onions were awesome and then mixture of pimento cheese with Caesar just felt like they should have been paired together the whole time. The baby did not like the she crab soup - but as someone who loves it pre-pregnancy- I think it would have been great. Husband like his except the cup of fresh watermelon was warm and that was not appealing to him. Overall it was good and service was great!
