Our daughter suggested that we all go to Charleston Cafe when Dave was the owner. The food and service were wonderful, we would look forward to going each time that we... more

This is a GREAT place to spend an evening in Surfside. My husband and I were engaged in the Charleston Cafe. The food is always great and the service is wonderful. We will be there on Valentine's weekend and can't wait. If you have a chance to go, take MY advice and go! SC more

Visited Charleston Cafe several days before Christmas, 2005..We were the only party ((3 people)) in the restaurant when we were seated at 6 pm. Had to ask for water refills several times, waiter asked us to keep used flatware after first course, had to ask for another glass of wine. Manager Dave, after seating us, never visited us again, although... more
