Update December 2011 - South Carolina

The Sage Room for excellent food and service. Eat at the chef's table and try their snow pea martini.

Pour Richard's was excellent, again. I love their appetizer flatbreads.

Vineyard 55 was good. I love the atmosphere, but the food is not great. Try it in combination with the Thursday farmer's market.

Mellow Mushroom, Choo Choo BBQ Express, the Sea Shack, Wild Wing Cafe and Fiesta Fresh always deliver. Good food and great value.
