    This was the last stop of a private culinary tour for my company, Experience Moore Tours. I always love taking my guests to Church and Union. The atmosphere is incredible and the food is always amazing! Thank you for having us!

    Food was mediocre. Once we finally got a server he was great but the place was dead and we had to ask for service after about 10 minutes.

    The food was excellent and the staff attentive. However, we were seated in the side room, which was cold, drafty, plain and uninviting. If you go here, you have to sit in the main dining room which is fabulous. If they don't have a table there for you leave and go elsewhere.

    Everything was great. We had a couple cocktails. I had the filet mignon and my husband had the crabcake. We then decided to get the dessert that had some chocolate and whipped cream, but I don’t remember the name of it. Everything was delicious and our server was super nice

    Dined here for Thanksgiving. One word to describe the service is "chaotic". We had a reservation at 19:30, and was seated 50 minutes to late. No room to wait in the bar, so had to stand outside. Food was good when we finally seated. So be aware if visiting on popular dates. They clearly overbook.

    7pm reservation. At 7:40 we were told it would be at least another half hour. Never received a saying our table was ready. Had to go somewhere else to eat. Poorly managed. Will not return. Too many other good places to eat in Charleston.

    We came on Thanksgiving night with our 2 young children. We understood that things probably wouldn’t be perfect being a busy Holiday. We made reservations but waited an hour. We got seated and the waiter wasn’t sure what the kids would eat. Steak for my son came out prepared wrong. The food tasted more like cafeteria style than high end. For the price, absolutely not work it and would not return on a regular night either. Typically, the manager would comp something for your wait or come over and ask how things went but not here. Just seemed like a scam, packing the restaurant and serving low quality food to make money. Sad.
