Amazing! A must go to restaurant in Charleston! All of the main entrees are great but I prefer the lamb rack.
I've eaten here several times and every experience is wonderful. Any time a friend/family came to visit me in Charleston, I always brought them here. Everyone was very impressed with the food preparation and flavors.
The food is so delicious. They prepare their protein to perfection. Their ingredients are unique, the chef knows what he's doing because all the flavors always compliment each other. I've never had something I didn't love here. I would highly recommend eating here, you won't be disappointed. This is a small restaurant so I would suggest making a reservation, especially if it's during the weekend. The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgable. They all know the menu really well because I've never had any waiter go ask another person if they didn't know the answer to my questions.
The restaurant is casual-upscale. The bar area is small, there is small bench to sit on if you have to wait. There is off street parking but it's very difficult to find because it's very congested in this part of downtown Charleston. There is a parking ramp a block away from here.
SNOB is one of the first restaurants my fiance and I visited on one of "my" first trips to Charleston three years ago. Every visit since then has been quite enjoyable with one small exception. The atmosphere is great, the service is impeccable, the wine is refreshing, and the food is amazing!
The only complaint that we've had in our many visits there has been a single occasion when we weren't dressed to the 10s...maybe an 8.75, but not a 10. They were busy and after a short wait we were seated at the front of the restaurant near the door and among the crowd of waiting guests. They were busy, yes...but we took it a little personally as out table was not only dirty, but was being used as quasi-storage for the night. They came to clean it off AFTER we had been seated there and complained about it. We didn't stay that evening figuring if the staff had wanted us there, they would have made us feel a bit more welcome.
Other than this single hiccup, SNOB has been a wonderful addition to our Charleston restaurant "short list".
The food is amazing! The vegetables were extremely fresh, everything was cooked perfectly, and their mixtures of foods is different, but incredble. Our waiter was probably one of the best waiters I have ever had, explaining the dishes and giving us honest opinions and recommendations when we asked for them. I would without a doubt recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an amazing meal with incredible service.
After dining here for both lunch and dinner, I now know why this is Charleston's Restaurant of the Year. My favorite dishes are the sauteed duck entree at dinner, the grilled salmon salad at lunch, and the pad thai anytime. Excellent service and a fun place to people watch.
