"Wow! The owner welcomed us by holding the door open and shaking our hands, setting the stage for an incredible dining experience. The service was exceptional. This is easily the best steak restaurant we've ever visited! I highly recommend making a reservation and enjoying a meal at Halls. They make you feel like family! They were also very accommodating with dietary requests; they could make anything fried gluten-free! My husband and I have decided this will be our go-to spot whenever we visit Charleston! Thank you, Halls, for a wonderful experience!"

"I just have one word that describes my experience here. WOW It was an absolute experience coming here. We were in town for my birthday and decided to eat here for my bday dinner/last night in Charleston. The vibe and atmosphere were classy, fun, and calming. They have a main bar area where you can grab a drink while you wait for a table and can be quite lively later in the evening. The dining rooms are towards the back, a lot quieter and more intimate so has a flavor for whatever you are into. The service was absolutely perfect. Our server (I wish I would have gotten her name she served our party of two at 10pm on Saturday 8/17) was so insanely friendly and personable. She knew her stuff and then some when it came to presenting the menu, but also would come chat with us and give us tips and recs for Charleston as she knew we were from out of town. They also gave us a free cheesecake and glasses of champagne on the house for our celebration. Just overall made us feel incredibly special and welcomed (we don't normally eat at places like this lol). The food, omg.....I am not overstating or being hyperbolic.......this was hands down without a doubt the greatest steak I have ever had in my life. Nothing even comes close. I had the Dry Aged Ribeye, and it has completely ruined steak for me because nothing will ever be that good. My girlfriend got the Filet, and it was in the same ballpark. Just legendary. We also got a side of the lobster Mac Cheese and it was fluffy with a perfect crust on top. Amazing flavor and texture. If you ever have the opportunity to dine, do yourself a favor and go. This was one of the best dinner experiences I have ever had. Thank you for making it a wonderful experience to the wait staff, the chef, servers, everyone there played a part and gave me a memory I will hold onto forever. Thank you!!"

"**The Good:** The grits are absolutely delicious, leaving you feeling happy and full. You can choose your own flavors or pick from a selection of daily specials. The g rits are creamy and rich, while the proteins are hearty and flavorful. My personal favorite is the shrimp and grits, featuring a delightful blend of gouda, paprika, gravy, and a generous serving of well-cooked shrimp. The ranchero bowl was also a standout, packed with chorizo, eggs, salsa verde, and more. The service is friendly, and the atmosphere is perfect for a casual sit-down lunch. **The Not-so-Good:** The prices can be quite high, especially for the shrimp and grits, but the portion sizes make it worthwhile. **Food/Drink:** 9/10 **Atmosphere:** 9/10 **Service:** 9/10 "

"I love visiting a new city and checking out the best cocktail bar in town. In Charleston, that's Doar Brothers. And unlike most bougie cocktail spots, it also manages to stay comfortable and approachable at the same time. I had the Bourbon and Clyde, which was a delicious dessert cocktail, and another drink that is no longer on the menu and whose name I can't recall. Both were well balanced and delicious. I also had the bread pudding, which took a few minutes to come out but really hit the spot. I ended the night with a carajillo, which is a coffee drink that they make with Licor 43. It was a little sweet with a perfect shot of caffeine to perk me up before heading home. I'll be back at Doar Brothers whenever I'm in Charleston!"

"My fiancé and I were engaged on 12/22/17 and he planned our solemn dinner with Circa 1886, and it was nothing less amazing. Charles was our waiter and delivered the best service we had ever experienced. The next day we even called the restaurant to rave over our experience. The service was like a clockwork, but we were not rushed. Our glasses were never half empty and our cutlery was replaced by any course. We received free champagne regularly $34/glass) and customized congratulation menus to start the meal. All the questions we had on the menu were answered and Charles gave great suggestions for meals. I ordered the Intermezzo cocktail and my fiancée ordered the famous Scotch cocktail, both were great. We ordered the scallops and the beets and chèvre as starters. The scallops were cooked for perfection. Very buttery and melt in your mouth - I wish more than 2 came on the plate! The beet and the Chèvre were exquisite with cool goat cheese sauce. We ate every bite. 2 bite-sized free snacks were provided by the cook - one was a spoon with a cheese cube, almond and cherry, the other was a divided Lima bean soup. YUM. As for dinner, my fiancée did the 5 courses tasting menu beef pate, heirloom tomato salad, pheasant, lamb, pumpkin soap) and he enjoyed everything. The portions were generous and Charles gave me additional plates so that I could choose the different dishes. I ordered the triple potato gratin I am vegetarian and it was from this world. Very sweet and delicious. Charles then surprised me with a free dessert course of the Smores). Both plates were decorated with congratulations in chocolate - it was a very special note. When we included the $200 check with a generous tip) we felt like the experience and the food was worth 100% the money. We will definitely be back and would recommend everyone and everyone."
