We recently visited Charleston and heard from some locals that we should go to Fulton Five. The restaurant is tucked back away from the street and covered with ivy--very romantic. All of the menu selections sounded wonderful and it was hard for us to choose what to order. The food was outstanding, especially the lamb rib chops! Our server was... more

I went there for a business meeting and was very disappointed. I explained when making the reservation that it would be a business dinner and we would appreciate some privacy. I had a similiar experience as one reviewer with the wait staff, though. Our waiter kept breaking into the conversation, without any regard to the situation. The dressing on my... more

My husband and I went here and the food was amazing! it's a small restaurant with a great Italian atmosphere. I would highly recommend the Chocolate D'espresso rubbed Fillet. The mashed potatoes were great as well. No complaints more

Fulton Five is a very small, intimate restaurant that's always been one of our favorites, if not our favorite, on our visits to Charleston. Dinner on May 30, 2009 was disappointing. First, the negatives. We had an in-your-face server. For us, the best server is one you don't notice. This guy really wanted to be noticed. Beyond that, the credit... more

This is a terrific restaurant on a quiet street. The decor is lovely, the food is excellent and the service is first class. The menu is Italian and it is superb. It's a relatively small restaurant so I would recommend that you call for reservations. Truly worth a visit. more

Dinner on May 2 at Fulton 5 combined excellent cuisine with informal and friendly but highly professional service to produce the best dining experience in Charleston for a group of eight. Entrees were creative--from rack lamb to trout to chocolate rubbed filets--and preceded by similarly well-prepared appetizers, antipasto and salads. The Prince Edward Island mussels were, in a word, superb,... more

I recently ate at Charleston's Fulton Five restaurant and it was amazing! I had always heard about it, but had never gone. The food was outstanding! I got the Spoleto appetizer and the half portion Bolognese and panna cotta for dessert! The servers are very friendly and knowledgeable and paired a great wine with my dinner. The setting was very... more

This restaurant is fine dining and it is a gem. Small, intimate, sparkling atmosphere with competent and charming waitstaff. The food was excellently well prepared and the wines, mostly Italian (barbarescos, barolos and chiantis), were wonderful. My wife and I are going to drink these, now, instead of our Stag's Leap, burgundies and bordeaux's after the experience we had. We... more

We visited Fulton Five on our last trip to Charleston and I must say "What a wonderful experience". The restaurant is cozy yet inviting, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, but the real star of the restaurant is the food. We had ravioli, risotto, and the chocolate expresso rubbed filet. We all ordered something different and tasted a little of... more

For dinner we went to Fulton 5 The cauliflower soup was great. The mussels were nicely done focused on the shellfish, not the sauce. The main courses was braised North Carolina mountain Golden trout stuffed with sautéed Vidalia onions with fennel and greens on the side. Very nice. more
