Pure Food and Juice caters toward a specific niche, those who love a healthy plant based diet…read more While I may not fall into this category, I can certainly appreciate the vision of the restaurant. If you are a vegan, then this place is without a doubt heaven on Earth. What I love most about this restaurant are originalities and intricacies of the food. I can see the passion in the food at this restaurant. The Strawberry Love smoothie was very refreshing. I think the drinks would be perfect for the summer. I was told that everything is made fresh daily in the morning and the popular juices will be sold out by the evening. Presentation of the food was striking. It maybe difficult to see but the salad was coated with a very thin layer of avocado/guacamole and topped with grated cheese. The avocado/guacamole made the salad taste amazingly delicious. Lasagna is a favorite entree at the restaurant. Composed of multiple layers of vegetables and sauces, this was one of the best vegan dishes I've ever had. At one point, I almost forgot that there were no meat in the lasagna. I must disclose I love tomato sauce and this entree had plenty of it. So to address the elephant in room, would I recommend Pure Food and Juice? Absolutely, if you are into plant based vegan diet. If you are not, you may prefer to spend your money elsewhere because $22 for a vegan lasagna may not be worth it. I just cannot recommend a vegan diet to someone who doesn't like vegan food. However, as a foodie, I appreciate the love and passion reflected in the food from this restaurant, from the small details to the bigger presentation and FOR THAT REASON I AM GIVING THIS RESTAURANT A 5 STARS.

Our waiter was Eli, who was perfect in his attentiveness, friendliness, knowledge and timing. This time we were seated on the outside of the center booths to the south. DO NOT accept seating here. It's in straight line with the kitchen -- too much traffic. Hubby ordered the catfish platter that he orders every time. I wasn't that hungry and asked Eli to help me choose a shrimp app. As a young guy he said, and so suggested, the Dynamite Shrimp as it was a better value. I added a dirty martini to my order. It was cold and refreshing. I was shocked when my shrimp was served. It was so. . .naked. As an app it would be nice for 4,6 people and certainly served with something; like bread. It's a little spicy. But think about eating nothing but spicy shrimp; shrimp after shrimp. It was my mistake but it's the way they serve it! It's like serving spinach artichoke dip with no chips or bread. Another guy came by to ask if everything was okay. His attitude was rude, but from him I ordered a house salad to have something fresh, something to break up that spicy shrimp. When I told him I needed an accompaniment, he said any side was available and they're on the menu. To which I replied I didn't have a menu. How rude, and stupid. We're in the middle of our meal, of course I ydidn't have a menu! I ordered ranch dressing, my mistake again. The dressing was so watery it left the lettuce swimming. Should have ordered blue cheese as we'd had before. Seems time has gotten to this Charleston's. Kinda tired. The old verve just isn't there. I used to go here quite a bit. Never a complaint. I always forget about money and it matters. This meal, without tip was $70.00. Guess I shouldn't have ordered that martini.

Our server came to our table shortly after and recommended an appetizer so we tried it. I want to firstly say that it took a very long time for the appetizer just to come out. We got the white bean dip that she raved about and it wasn't very good, definitely didn't live up to the hype. The sourdough bread it was served with was delicious though. We ordered our entrees with our appetizer and they took even longer to come out. My husband got the BUCATINI pasta and it was very mediocre (the noodles were made perfect) but the sauce was very bland and needed work. I got the TAGLIOLINI pasta and added grilled chicken. The pasta itself was cooked perfect but the sauce again bland and was even watery. The chicken was overcooked and dry which was disappointing considering it costs an arm and a leg for a small cut of chicken. Our server was also terrible. She checked on us 2 separate times throughout the entire experience and we spent a good hour and half there, she was VERY hard to locate and it was rather annoying to have to search for her when we needed something. We didn't expect to be this disappointed for a meal that we spent $64 alone without the tip. Needless to say we will not be going back. I don't recommend this place.

My husband ordered the roast beef and fries. The first order of the roast beef sandwich hardly had any onions but the worst part was the hair discovered on the fries. Upon the second delivery of the same meal, we discovered a SECOND hair. Listen, we've both been in the service industry so we try to have grace toward servers and kitchens. However, the worst part was that our server indicated they had just switched kitchen staff and yet this occurred on the same dish. Secondly, my husband had the view into kitchen and saw a kitchen staff member look out the window into the restaurant and roll his eyes at our table, ostensibly for returning the meal. First time is a mistake. Second time, completely different hair thickness - felt intentional. Food is your typical brunch and diner fare. If you go, be sure to thoroughly check your food prior to eating.

The other drinks on the menu seemed to appeal to a younger crowd, but they have a full service bar. We aren't limited to what's on their menu. Nevertheless, I decided to try the pineappletini. It sounded good. I love pineapple and martinis. It was way too sweet for me. We ordered an eggplant dip that came with unusually delicious pita bread. They bring you pita bread no matter what you order. We also got chips with the dip. We loved the dip. The atmosphere was busy. They had a large crowds of people socializing. There's a garden area where people who like quiet dining can go when the weather is nice. Dan sent a text to management asking about sodium levels in their food and explained that he had to limit his sodium intake for medical reasons.

Service was spot on throughout the entire night. We started with the deviled eggs, half plain and half Chef's Choice. The Chef's Choice were the best, drizzled with chili crisp (or pickled Szechuan peppercorns) and topped with a tiny gherkin and fresh dill. The soup of the day was a cabbage and radish soup. It was interesting and very homey but I wish I had ordered the salad. I had the Novarro Farm sweet Potato Gnocchi (kale and pecan pesto, Birch Bottom Farm Georgia candy roaster, fresh chevre). I was a little hesitant about the kale pesto but should NOT have been. This dish was delicious--great garlic flavor. Would order again. The burger looked amazing and while The Hubs said it was good, he also said it needed some more spice. They had a couple of rotating beers from Heirloom--a Mexican Lager and an Italian Pilsner. I had the Water Lily cocktail, their take on an Aviation. Order it just because it's beautiful (and refreshing). The photo does not depict the deep color of it. I asked what other gin based cocktails they had on their menu. They didn't but the server/bartender offered to make me a Bee's Knees for the second round. It was delicious! The atmosphere here is casual but the food is elevated. I kept thinking this is what a French bistro would be like inside. I want to come back and shop the market. Oh, and the apple pie was excellent as well!

They also sliced my bagel in half, without me asking. Easier to eat that way. The interior is classic, basic table & chairs with a few booths. Very clean. The staff is very friendly.

Both sandwiches came with homemade potato chips, a mix of regular and sweet potato and they were absolutely delicious. The Dutch Crunch Sandwich was packed with turkey, bacon, swiss, tomato, arugula, and avocado mayo on dutch crunch bread. They don't skimp on toppings at all, there was plenty of turkey and bacon, and every bite was flavorful. Dalton's Double Deuce was another standout. Ham, egg salad, olive tapenade, and arugula on a fresh Italian roll. It felt like a grown up version of an egg salad sandwich. The olive tapenade adds a great punch of flavor, though it leans a little salty. And the cookies... unbelievably good. Truly some of the best cookies I've had. The Brown Sugar Cookie has a gooey center and deep caramel flavor, and the Oatmeal Cookie without no raisins, surprised me, I didn't miss the raisins at all. It tastes like it has a light honey glaze to me, and it's phenomenal. Trenchers is definitely a new favorite.
