A lovely French patisserie, with a wide variety of treats both savory and sweet. A perfect place to stop in for a slice of quiche and a coffee while enjoying a book on a beautiful Saturday morning. The service is warm and accommodating and the local interactions you see occurring make it clear that this place is a local staple. read more

What can I say about Le Chambertin except for the fact that if I lived in the area, I would be here almost everyday if I could. This little place is ran by the owner and only the owner. He has maybe 4 tables at most and 2 more tables if he puts tables on the sidewalk. So if you ever visit this place, be sure to go early or make plans to wait if there aren't tables. Ambiance? The ambiance is basically just tables and chairs in the front of his store entrance. A low key style cafe with not much to look at, but great conversation with the owner. We ordered the ham and cheese baguette and the spinach quiche as well as some homemade pastries. The owner is a baker by trade so you know his breads are fresh and homemade. His humor is also everything btw. You'll get a good laugh and amazing food. Can't wait to visit again if we're in the area. read more

A quaint, authentic French bakery and cafe tucked into the French Quarter. It's a bit hidden, but definitely a gem once you find it. The shop itself is small and cozy, as they only allow a couple of people inside at a time to keep things flowing. Seating outside is limited but available. I had the quiche and it was absolutely delightful. So fresh, flavorful, and authentically French. The owner was incredibly kind and helpful, offering thoughtful recommendations based on what I was in the mood for. They were also very sweet to my dog, brining him cold water and a fresh biscuit, which absolutely made my morning. I loved it so much I brought my husband back later that day to try more pastries. Definitely worth a stop if you're in Charleston and craving something charming, French, and delicious. read more

Incredibly rude and shooed us away with our stroller. We gladly took our business elsewhere. The location is quite small and we had a 2-child stroller, so we parked it outside and took turns looking at the options inside. There's zero chance we could've fit our stroller in inside to order. While discussing our options for a few minutes outside, since, you know, you can't leave a stroller with children outside alone, they came out and told us to leave so that paying customers could sit down. We informed them we were deciding what to get, but it didn't matter. Incredibly rude, and based on other reviews, their attitude seems like a common theme. Save your money for an establishment that cares about its customers. read more

This authentic quaint French bakery with peaceful outdoor seating has freshly baked croissants, pastries, and French imported jams, mustard, etc. The baker kindly allowed us to take a short video of the interior, as long as he was not in it. The cinnamon pastry was buttery and delicious but a bit heavy. They did not have beignets. The almond croissant was flaky and better than any that I've had in Charleston, but none that I've had could compare with French Memories Bakery from our locality. Only two customers are allowed in the bakery at a time. read more

We came in on a weekend morning to try a few pastries. They looked great but one bite proved they were not baked that morning. Maybe not even the morning before. This shocked us considering the owners are French. Maybe they don't think Americans care. We did. I don't mind paying top dollar for fresh pastries but I do for stale pastries. Just bake off less each day and keep your product fresh. If you can be sure they baked that morning I'd say try them but if not, keep walking. read more

If you want to know what cakes are available, you should check out the display stand right when you enter. Since we were there 2.5 hours before closing, there didn't seem to be a lot of cake options available, but my husband and I decided to share a slice of the s'mores cake with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream to make it à la mode. The s'mores cake was a chocolate cake with mini marshmallows, chocolate fudge, graham crackers, and more marshmallows. The cake was good and had everything I could ever want in it, but it was a little dry. I think this also had to do with it being the end of the night. The ice cream complemented the flavor well. It would have been better with a second scoop of ice cream though. Service was great! It took about 10 minutes from when we ordered to get our dessert.

Nice list of 3 mocktails so even if not consuming alcohol one can look to play the part at the table and enjoy the flavor notes of a well made cocktail. The first meal we had was a bit of a work/get together meal. We ordered an assortment of items off of the menu and created a more tapas menu. The charcuterie board we picked the cheeses for and it was lovely. All as expected and quite surprised to find a cheddar I enjoyed. Came with some grapes, figs, nuts, honey and I think mustard. Glazed carrots were phenomenal. Heartily enjoyed the beet salad and thought the presentation was quite pretty. Lamb lettuce wraps are alright. Not my favorite of all the dishes served but delivered as promised, nicely cooked and presented. Spouse really liked the lamb wraps and were a stand out dish to them. Meatballs are excellent truly great texture and flavor. Escargot was a fun take on a classic dish. Finished with a unique strudel in its presentation it was quite pleasant. Spouse liked the peanut butter chocolate dessert. For brunch, I had the carrot ginger soup. Which I must say was a total delight. The soup had the hallmark texture and base flavor of the carrot ginger but it had a beautiful breath of savory and some heat seasoning wise to it. It was quite an elevated soup and heartily enjoyed! I followed the carrot soup with a French toast. I am all for softly scrambled eggs but the French toast was a touch undercooked. (I did not let the restaurant know or give them the chance to make right. I regularly eat soft boiled eggs and soft scrambled so I felt comfortable with consuming them.) Strawberries were ripe and tasty. The whipped cream was gorgeous in thickness and flavor. One in law had the caesar salad with croutons and grilled chicken. Their bowl was left clean so while they are not the talkative of sorts they did seem to enjoy it. Ordered a baguette with butter. Unfortunately the butter never made it to the table but the baguette was enjoyed. Spouse had the Azur burger with the side of tapas style potatoes. All was cooked properly to temperature and texture. Flavor and taste as promised. Wasn't their favorite dish at Azur as we had tried so many lovely dishes a few evenings before. But it did deliver on what was represented in the menu. Other in law had the quiche and a side salad. They liked the quiche and would order it again.

Azur Burger was terrible very dry. no flavor. The beef burgundy was no good…read more The waiters had a terrible attitude from jump Street. The owner and whoever he was stayed on his phone the entire time and spoke to none of the clients. Possibly the manager. We've been traveling around here for four days, This was the bottom of the barrel. Furthermore, I believe most of these reviews came from family and friends not honest customers..

Sorelle is fine dining and Michelin rated for a reason. I came with friends for my birthday dinner:…read morewow! The whole place is stunning. The building has an extensive history, even once serving as a Hebrew orphanage, to now being a beautiful restaurant. I love how the architects and interior design highlight the character of the building! The wallpaper on the main dining room on the second floor is truly gorgeous! For cocktails, we tried many! I got the almond sour (delicious) and my friends were pleasantly surprised they serve decaffeinated espresso martinis. My sister got a spritz, which she also enjoyed. I was also touched that the culinary team was kind enough to sign a birthday card for me. Our table also received complimentary cacio e pepe popcorn to snack on--yum! For appetizers, we got the tuna tar tar (Crudo di Tonno), the strawberry caprese salad, and some shrimp--all so delicious, that they FLEW off the plate! For mains, I got the Rotolo al Forno, which was VERY tasty. My friends got the chicken milanese, the Sorelle spaghetti, and the sworfish. For side dishes, we also got the meatball with polenta and some potatoes. For dessert, I got a complimentary birthday cannoli with a candle and the Limone (a berry and cream-filled dessert in the form of a lemon!) What. A. Meal!!! The food and the locale are just stunning. But of course, not cheap. As a whole, we paid a whopping $399.75 without tip! Was it worth it for a feast of glamour? I'd say so--but definitely not an every day treat unless you have the budget! Also, Lucy was our server and was exceptionally sweet and patient!

Heads up--it gets PACKED on weekends and sometimes even runs out of goodies, so come early. We tried the German chocolate bun and OMG--it was insane. Perfectly buttery, toasted almonds, and rich dark chocolate--it might be the best pastry I've ever had. The Butter Me Up breakfast sandwich was huge and so shareable, packed with bacon, avocado, and egg on a crumbly, buttery biscuit--pure breakfast heaven. To drink, the turmeric chai latte was hot, comforting, and refreshing all at once. Honestly, if you're in Charleston and love cozy spots with epic pastries and breakfast, Harken Cafe is a must!
