My husband and I spent a mini-vacation after Christmas at the Planters Inn and splurged on a meal at the Peninsula Inn. But given the amazing food and attention we received...it was a complete bargain! We opted for the chef's Epicurean tasting menu, and it was spectacular from start to finish. If we hadn't already made plans for dinner the... more

Would not go back. My two college aged kids were along, waitress acted as if they were not welcome. She wanted us to sit in one of the compact booths by front door and bar. more

We highly recommend booking a table in advance, as our restaurant is very busy and sometimes as it was the case that night, our bar booth where the only choice left for our guest without a reservation. Emmanuel Gardinier Managing Director Planters Inn & Peninsula Grill Relais & Chateaux

Top notch food and service. The coconut cake is a must have. more

Thank you for your review, the Coconut cake is indeed very special, it was featured on the Martha Stewart show, and Chef Robert Carter did a Throw down with Bobby flay with the same cake. These 12 layers of goodness have been a runaway success since it's creation. Emmanuel Gardinier Managing Director Planters Inn & Peninsula Grill Relais & Chateaux

This is our favorite spot to dine in Charleston. Its a special place; they do everything right here. The food, the presentation, the service, the ambiance; its all perfect. My wife and I have probably visit the Peninsula Grill a dozen times and they were not once off the usual high standard we have come to expect. In the warm... more

My husband and I ate at the Peninsula Grill on October 30,2009. This restaurant is more upscale than where we usually choose to eat, but this was our get-away weekend and we wanted to make it special. Although I don't remember the specific names of our entrees, I ordered the roasted chicken and he ordered steak. The food was amazing!... more

My husband and I took a last minute trip to Charleston for the weekend. We always eat at Peninsula Grill and did this weekend, as well. It is ALWAYS consistent in service, presentation and the meal being delicious. We always order the fried green tomatoes with crabmeat as our appetizer and usually get a different entree every time we visit.... more

I really have no complaints about this place - the food was great, service was attentive, and the outdoor patio is gorgeous. We did wait about 30 minutes for our table (which we had a reservation for) and that was annoying, especially as there really isn't much of a bar area to wait in with a big group. Other than... more

We were forced to make a late reservation here because they were all full that night and we did it at the last minute. We had a 9:00 reservation and were surprised to find that the restaurant does not offer valet parking... so we didn't really get in until 9:20-9:30, by the time we found a place to park. We... more

I would like to personally apologize to cpapa84 for the impression our waitress gave you, this is totally unacceptable to us and I can guarantee that this type of behavior goes against our philosophy as we want all of our guest to have the best time and leave us with great memories.
