Notably, the hotel has the city’s highest rooftop bar and restaurant — The Watch Rooftop Kitchen & Spirits — offering indoor and outdoor seating with impressive views of downtown Charleston, the Ravenel Bridge and more. At the helm is Chef Jordan Moore. The Watch takes a cue from the rich history and coastal location, artfully serving modern American food with low country and global influences.

    The Restoration is all about community and bringing people together so it’s only natural that the hotel has multiple event venues. From The Observatory perched atop The Restoration’s main building, to any of the private suites with rooftop terraces and sweeping views of the city and Charleston Harbor, The Watch is perfect for an intimate seated dinner celebration to a more casual cocktail reception.

    Sophie was a great server. It was our first time there and she knew the menu well . She was very knowledgeable about the cocktails also. Loved the Nutty Professor.

    This is only a "yes" or "no", there is not a maybe here, but the rooftop view is one of the best. Drinks? Yes. The food? No. Nothing to write home about. Overpriced - specifically for a traditionally cheap cut of meat (not filet, ribeye - not even strip, porterhoue), and poorly seasoned/prepared. The vegetables were uninspired at best. My coworker's mahi similarly a flop. The very best thing about the meal was the smoked cocktail sauce served with the raw oysters - hands down, but how hard does one have to work to prepare a raw oyster? Service was very good, friendly, attentive without being overly intrusive. Frankly, they need more options, better options and something remotely creative on the menu. Atmosphere is great, but like my Great Uncle Allen says, "You can't eat atmosphere".

    Food choice is pretty limited so definitely review the menu online. We went here to have dinner on the “rooftop” but outdoor seating was not an option although it was a really nice night so sitting inside was just the same as any restaurant. Very small dining space and we were right next to a large party so could not hear anything my guest said without having to repeat everything. Wine selection by the glass very disappointing.
