Re: “NV Dance Lounge”

NV Dance Lounge is the weekend hot spot on the market- period. All the good-looking, people-in-the-know will be there. That's a true story. For those of you who are dissing the place, I'm gonna guess you were refused entry for being out of dress code or...are just plain cheap. It's an upscale dance club. If you don't know what that means, Google it! You gotta be dressed to impressed to get in. It keeps the riff raff (like those posted above me) out of the club! Go to Purple Tree. Oh wait, that closed because of gang violence. dang. I guess theres always the North Charleston "clubs". I'm reminded of the Chris Brown song "I don't know why youre hating from outside the club, you can't even get in!" ---- NV is where its at! closest thing you'll find to a REAL nightclub in Chas #realtalk

Re: “NV Dance Lounge”

What a joke. Any night club that has the dress code at the door isn't what I'd call "upscale". If you're into slores wearing heeled suede boots that come up to their thighs, oozing insecurity and low self esteem all while holding a vodka CRaNnn and sexily sippin' on their strawwz, then dive in my friend. Oh yeah, take some new facebook profile pix with palmetto shots while you're there.

Re: “Halls Chophouse”

All these other fools do not know what quality food and service is about. They should stick to food joints like Hyman's and they can get an affordable plate of tasteless food and service with no personability.

Re: “The Pierpont Pub”

They know how to throw a party. Saturday night in west ashley has a whole new vibe. This 1 st year for then has been questioned by all, would they make it? What a way to go forth into the new year. Great crowd, Great food, bartenders could be a little faster with the service, and a more organized for checking out. This bar was on fire, live music after the game, kept the crowd till closing time. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW OWNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KEEP IT UP.

Re: “Halls Chophouse”

Went to Hall's for the Restaurant Week special 3 for 40. Next time I'll go to High Cotton or The Oak and pay full price.... Hell, next time I get the craving for a steak, I'll take the buttermilk chicken at Magnolias before I go to Halls. Service was plaintively agreeable, but the steak was mediocre at best and luke-warm, the potatoes and green beans tasteless and the Caesar salad was mostly Romaine stalks (was this to compensate for the lower Restaurant Week prices?) and the tables crowded together so tightly, every time a server visited the table next-door I got a butt in my face. We were bum-rushed out as soon as we had finished our plates, and then coat-check couldn't find my coat even with the tag they gave me. Waiting for them to find my coat we had an interesting encounter with Billy Hall. He gave one lame excuse after another while continually trying to shake my hand. Complained about having to participate in Restaurant Week after being yelled at by the restaurant association, and on and on. I won't be back.
A bit of advice to Billy: Son, you missed your calling - somewhere in North Charleston there's a used-car lot that needs you desperately.

Re: “Boone's Bar”

Very good. No complaints. Will definitely be back for wings and bourbon. Bartender lacked a bit of knowledge about drinks/beers, but again, no complaints. The guy who appeared to be the manager was very knowledgeable and filled in the blanks. Really liked the atmosphere and the bar itself. The temp regulated drafts/taps is a nice option. Wings are a bit pricey, but worth it. Half price day makes them well worth it. Looking forward to trying more menu items.

Re: “The Pierpont Pub”

Had the pleasure of going in this week and learning about all of all the new and exciting plans they have for this pub. I had their plate lunch special and the best bloody mary this side of new orleans. given a chance this will be the new favorite spot.

Re: “Abe's Oyster House”

Art & Bob could never get it going.

It's a sad place and the food and ambience relects Bob's personality = bland and uninteresting ........ at best.

Re: “The Griffon”

Great Place… With one exception

I really enjoyed the Griffon. Food was good and the beer selection was great. However, one bartender almost ruined it. It’s a small guy with black hair kind of spiked. Lee or Lloyd (I think). Wore a flower on his shirt and was very rude! Anyway, the place is great, but avoid this guy if possible…

Re: “The Dog & Duck”

Hello CharlestonDawgy,
We are disappointed to hear about your less than stellar experience with the Dog and Duck in Summerville and would like to offer our sincerest apologies to you and your party. Unfortunately, the Summerville restaurant is under a different ownership group than the West Ashley and Mount Pleasant locations, so we cannot speak on their behalf. If there is anything we can do to make up for the poor service you received at your previous outing, please do not hesitate to stop by any of our three pubs. We will do our best to make it right. Thank you and have a wonderful new year.

Re: “The Dog & Duck”

Cannot speak for the other locations but the one in Summerville is overall not worth the drive, the foods decent but some of the waitresses and bartenders make it difficult to have a good time. There is constant friction between them that you can sense, our waitress was being bought shots by the next table and she was definately not sober while she served us, in fact I questioned several items on our bill that weren't even ours. When I asked to see the mgr, think his name was Don, the waitress got a little irritated, and even after I expressed my disappointment about the waitress he acted as if it was normal and she continued to serve us. So we will not be visiting dog and duck anymore and I would suggest you don't waste your time

Re: “House of Brews”

Quite possibly one of the coolest places I have ever been. with over 400 beers to choose from there is easily something for everyone. Either grab a beer from the cooler or toss one from off the shelf into the chiller and enjoy on premise or put a 6 pack together or grab a growler for the road. Live music on weekends, corn hole, and an all together great atmosphere. Rob, the owner, is one of the nicest people i have ever met. If you haven't been to house of brews be sure to make the trip soon.

Re: “The Cocktail Club”

Why was my comment removed? CCP censorship? Really?? Or is someone in Palmer's back pocket? If you think the following 2 reviews are by different people, who just happened to register and post for the first time on the same afternoon, I've got some news for you: they aren't. It's slick marketing aimed to temper a negative review. Let your product speak for itself, CC. And stop posting glowing reviews for O Ku, without identifying yourself as GM of an establishment owned by the same parent company.

"Best bar in Charleston! Excellent service, delicious drinks, and tasty food. Will be back again and again! I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could!"

"This place really has a unique and mature environment. Service and technique are unbelievably polished, creative, and just plain fun! Classy establishment."

Similar, no?

Re: “The Cocktail Club”

Slow, long-winded service. My girlfriend said the juice tasted old and when she tried to tell the bartender she just gave her attitude. WASTE OF MONEY! Much better bars around like the Belmount or Hom.
