Charleston Restaurant Week is Back
Eat, Sample, Celebrate
The holidays might be over, but the feasting isn’t finished here in the Lowcountry. Charleston Restaurant Week is back, friends! Across the Holy City and beyond, restaurants are serving up mouthwatering dishes and clever cocktails at prices that won’t break the bank. Loosen your belts because it’s time to eat, sip, and celebrate…all over again.
This local celebration is part of the larger South Carolina Restaurant Week, running January 8–18, with ten days of delicious indulgence. Participating restaurants typically offer special three- or four-course prix fixe menus at discounted prices, giving diners the perfect excuse to check off those spots that have been lingering on their bucket lists. Fancy New England Fish Chowder at The Ordinary for dinner on a Tuesday, followed by New Orleans-style Beignets at Ruby Sunshine for brunch on Wednesday? Go for it. You can do both—and then some. But here’s a pro-tip: pace yourself so you don’t burn out too soon.
Charleston has long been known for its culinary excellence, and Restaurant Week turns up the excitement even more. Chefs, restaurant owners, and their teams all feel the buzz as tables fill with diners eager to explore new flavors and revisit old favorites. From fine dining in elegant, historic spaces to cozy French Quarter bistros, lively local bars, and even your favorite taco spots, Restaurant Week shines a spotlight on the city’s diverse food scene. It’s a chance for tourists to sample dishes they might never try otherwise, and for locals to celebrate the chefs, bartenders, and servers who make Charleston so unforgettable.
Whether you’re in the mood for a decadent three-course dinner, a perfectly crafted cocktail, or a casual brunch that hits all the right notes, Charleston Restaurant Week delivers it all. Think of it as a tasty passport through the Holy City: one bite, one sip, and one unforgettable meal at a time. For a full list of participating restaurants, visit the website today.
