- NNick & TraceyVIPNew York City •24 reviews5.0Dined todayWe had a wonderful evening at Maison! We had a very hard time deciding what to chose for appetizers and entrees! With some guidance by Nate, we made some great choices and enjoyed our meals immensely! My husband LOVES Foie Gras paired with a good Sauterne and went with the appetizer. He wished he got more on his plate though, it was that GOOD! Nate gave us plenty of time to savor every morsel but attentive! Reminds us of wonderful times in Paris with the decor and gentle music playing.More infoMaisonPrice: Expensive• French• Downtown Charleston•4.9

- DDylanNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMy experience at The Kingstide was amazing. From the moment me and my mother walked in the door we were not disappointed. We stared off with the house sausage and crab fried rice (Highly recommend both). We shared a NY Strip and the Scallops, both dishes were spectacular. We shared a KT Crunch Bar for dessert to cap off the night. Our server Madi provided amazing service. The AGM Jackie stopped by and she is lovely! Will definitely be back soon.More infoThe KingstidePrice: Moderate• Seafood• Daniel Island•4.5
- JJohnSouth Carolina •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoNew space is very nice. Food is as wonderful as ever. My only issue is with the size of the tables for two - not much room to maneuver once you have three or more dishes on the table along with water glasses, wine and cocktail glasses. I know there’s not much to be done - just an observation and that won’t keep us from coming back soonMore infoJackrabbit FillyPrice: Moderate• Chinese• North Charleston•4.9

Discover Daniel Island
Daniel Island is a vibrant location with traditional neighborhoods, a spectacular coastal view, and a thriving downtown filled with great restaurants. You can enjoy delicacies like parmesan-and-basil-encrusted salmon, lavender-and-honey-marinated pork tenderloin, or succulent lamb-and-beef meatballs over linguini with fine vintage wines and beautiful island views. What could be better than a fine meal starting with a charcuterie plate and jumbo lump crab cakes? Follow it up with tarragon shallot salmon, Mediterranean penne pasta, or pork Milanese and an IPA-style draft beer and you’ll have yourself a dining experience to remember. Save room for dessert because the white chocolate banana bread pudding, triple chocolate cake, and peanut-butter-cup pie are not to be missed. With a smattering of international fare and local bars, Daniel Island is a paradise for those who love food.
