On Sundays, they have brunch & a live band. Made it for the band, not the brunch. The Black Diamond…read moreBand is always a good time, and this time was no different. They played on the patio outside, and despite the rain, the weather was perfect to sit and listen to live music. Our server, K.K, was excellent, answered all of our food and drink questions, or found the answers for those she wasn't sure of. Their Specialty Martinis were delicious. The Tequila Sunrise wings were good. They had an Asian flavor. Tasted some teriyaki flavor in the sauce. They were 7 small, whole wings. I'd rather drummettes with sauced wings because there is more manipulation with whole wings, and it gets messy with sauce. My friend had Sweet Chili wings, which she also enjoyed. Wing orders also come with fries. The music after the band was good but strayed from the mood set by the band. They sell cigars out on the patio, which can be enjoyed right there. Inside is beautiful and has a completely different vibe from outside. For a more upscale restaurant, having hookahs is a little confusing to me. I do love having a nice restaurant close by, and I look forward to visiting again and tasting more items on the menu.

I've had consistently great experiences at the Point Hope location of King Leaf Cigar and have…read morespent thousands of dollars there over time, including on wine and cigars. The staff at that location has always been welcoming, professional, and customer-focused, which is why yesterday's experience at the downtown Charleston location was especially disappointing. On Saturday afternoon, May 23, I visited the downtown location with my brother and my nephew. Shortly after walking in, the manager on duty informed us that my nephew's "gym shorts" violated the dress code and asked us to leave. I understand that businesses have the right to establish dress standards, especially cigar lounges that want to maintain a certain atmosphere. That said, the way the situation was handled came across as rude and unnecessarily dismissive. There was no effort to handle the conversation with professionalism or hospitality, especially considering we had just walked in and intended to spend time and money there. What surprised me most was how little value seemed to be placed on customer relationships. After the amount of business and loyalty I've shown to the brand over time, the interaction left me genuinely questioning whether I'll return at all. The contrast between the welcoming atmosphere at Point Hope and the experience downtown was significant and disappointing.

On my recent visit to Charleston I discovered this fairly new restaurant/lounge in very close…read moreproximity to my hotel. The reviews were kinda mixed so I didn't have the highest of hopes, but I'm always willing to give a place a shot. The building looks like a medical practice so I initially rode past it but once inside it's nicely renovated. There's a main dining area, 2 bars, a VIP lounge with hookah, and a room with a pool table. I came during happy hour but the food is unbelievably cheap without the discount. Our server Sierra was great, but the bartender/hookah server needs to work on her customer service skills. She ignored us for 20 mins but found time to pour herself a drink and twerk. Now the food: The cabbage plate with fried whiting, yams and rice was yummy, seasoned well, and plentiful The chicken Alfredo with broccoli was delicious Never had fried corn but it was great! The dredge was perfectly crispy and seasoned well. The drinks weren't memorable Went back a 2nd time and had brunch: peach Bellini carafe (perfect), salmon cakes (soooo good), grits and eggs were just ok. Our server Jasmine was great. I'll definitely return when I'm back in town 7/10

You can tell they make the effort to marinate the wings because the meat itself was flavorful. $20 for 12 wings + fries. The salmon plate was about $11 after tax and was very good! The salmon croquette was nice and crunchy on the outside with the perfect proportion of bell peppers/onions in the middle.

The space is elegant with 3 rooms to explore. The front room opens up to showcase an immense wine rack full of rare and quality wines complete with sliding ladder to access top-shelf picks. The small bar by the register provides an intimate space to enjoy a glass with someone special and even enjoy a few pours straight from a tap. They even have a beer fridge full of craft brews that put your standard buds to shame. The middle room is home to an expansive humidor brimming with quality, hand-crafted cigars all stored at the perfect humidity level. The smell inside was enticing and inviting with a variety that would rival even the most lavish lounges. The final room is where you finally get to relax and enjoy yourself with a little home away from home. The actual lounge is the textbook definition of comfort. There are plenty of seating options from couches to plush chairs and even a group table to socialize around. I was so impressed by the lounge and the soothing background music only added to the ambiance. Finally, what would a cigar lounge be without the expertise and hospitality of its Tobacconist? Gary is an awesome human being with a warm demeanor that welcomes everyone in and makes them feel like family. Affectionately nicknamed Cigar Jesus because of his long hair he certainly lives up to the name and we always will be back to this location. Both for Gary, and the amazing environment he fosters for the cigar community!
