Circa 1886

Charleston


In a renovated, elegant carriage house, this is Lowcountry fine dining at its most rewarding, with healthful, seasonal offerings that reflect the region's bounty and build on its traditions. Adventurous diners will appreciate the coffee-brined antelope, which comes with sorghum sweet-potato mousseline and shishito peppers. Everybody will lose it for the benne-crusted (sesame-crusted) duck breast with white peach grits.

There's also an extensive wine list, and the waitstaff are highly knowledgeable and gracious.
