    Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was perfect, and the service was truly exceptional. Brant and CT went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They were attentive, friendly, welcoming, and made us feel so well taken care of throughout the entire meal. It's not often you come across service this outstanding. They genuinely made the experience memorable and are a huge reason we had such a great time. We will absolutely be coming back and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for amazing food and even better service!

    Wow! The chef leveled up on the lobster pasta dish. Rich in flavor, but still light. Don't skip the octopus and the burrata with pesto appetizers. The tiramisu was delicious for dessert and I will be talking about the perfectly dirty martini with burrata stuffed olives for days.

    I'm so sorry but I just had to make this review. The service itself was great. Our main server was great. The one at the front had a bit of an attitude but I understand. The place itself is beautiful and they had some of the nicest restrooms I've seen in a restaurant. BUT... getting brunch here was a massive mistake. Drove down to enjoy a meal to start the day, but that burger was awful and it honestly ruined my morning. This may have been the first time I've eaten something that caused me to vomit an hour later. I let the waiter choose my dish but I was confused on why I wasn't asked how I wanted the burger done. The burger tasted great but half way into it I realized the meat was REALLY pink. I made the assumption that the crew knew what they were doing and trusted the quality of the meat since (1) I wasn't asked how I wanted the meat done and (2) they made it this pink without any knowledge of my preferences. So, right after I ate the burger my abdomen started to hurt until I eventually puked it up. It resulted in about two to three hours of extreme pain and discomfort. That's how my morning went :)

    My first experience with Legami was good albeit a bit different. I had called ahead to see if they were accepting walk ins to which they said yes and if we came in the next 30 minutes that would be nonissue. When my friend and I arrived 30 minutes later per their request, mentioning we were walk-ins, they appeared a bit confused wouldnt wouldn't sit us without making a last minute reservation. We waited a few extra minutes while they punched in our Resy info before seating us. Not knocking them for this, I just thought the whole thing was odd. We originally came in for restaurant week but opted to try their regular menu. Both my friend and I ordered the oxtail ragu that was delicious! I also ordered two oysters as an app, the focaccia, and we each had a martini. Our server was nice and on top of everything. Overall the prices are fair, the atmosphere warm and dark. I would recommend dressing up for this experience. While there were people in leggings and ugg slipper I would save those for something a little more casual.

    Legami: delvers ambiance just as good as their pasta! Love ordering their dirty martini w the side car (aka coupe of olives) to start off the evening. Our server was incredible - friendly, attentive, and let us know the HH special for our next visit. $1 oysters and $15 plate of pasta! Such a spot for girl dinner, group dinner, date night, etc. we love the patio, but upstairs is great as well!

    Went there the other night with my girlfriend and had a great experience. We sat at the upstairs bar area which I would highly recommend. It felt lively but still intimate and was a great spot to settle in for the night. Food was excellent across the board. The scallop crudo was a standout and the duck was unreal. Honestly might be one of the best duck dishes I have ever had. Service was incredible without being over the top and the ambiance was spot on. Everything just clicked. Definitely a place I would go back to and recommend to friends.

    First night we went we sat at the bar, had perfect cocktails best Negroni s ever. Bartender, Rogan was amazing. We shared ravioli, also fantastic, again some of the best. We had reservations for the next evening . We were seated and the restaurant is beautiful, it truly is. Our food was phenomenal.. pan seared perfectly over a corn purée. The lobster pasta was delicious. We also shared a burrata appetizer which was fantastic. The dessert, a puff pastry with chocolate was underwhelming. Our server, Naomi was super friendly and very celebratory with a birthday (there was a sweet card and she brought bubbles and limoncello with dessert. I am giving 4 stars not 5 because it seems there was a little misstep in the flow of everything, the timing of entrees, having to send a drink back.. just a few little things. Maybe they had a few people off that night. The food was incredible and we will be back!

    Oh my goodness, this place was so good! I had the Roasted Chicken Agrodolce which was served over this sweet carrot crema. It was melt in your mouth good! My fiancé had the Pappardelle Al Ragu, he said the handmade noodles and sauce were to die for. We also enjoyed the Misticanza salad, but I thought the balsamic was a bit strong and the spiced honey ricotta packed a sweet heat punch to the Focaccia. I dont know if I would add on the ricotta again, I think focaccia is delicious on its own. We sat upstairs for dinner and it was a very romantic setting, but it was a bit loud in the room since there was a large table next to us, coupled with wood flooring. At times, I had to repeat myself to my partner across the table. However, I will say the service was great, our food came quickly and our server was knowledgeable on the food and changes they've made to the menu. I would definitely recommend this place to family + friends.

    Legami is an incredibly cute spot. The vibe and decor is 10/10. I love the different indoor and outdoor space they offer. Came here with some girlfriends and sampled a good amount of food which was all yummy. Random but the chicken was amazing. Not something I typically order but soooo good. The drinks were okay probably would just stick to food next time. One thing to note is I ordered the hamachi crudo and was served tuna. Then was informed that they do this when they run out of yellowtail. Didn't appreciate this.

    My fiancé and I were visiting Charleston and saw incredible reviews for Legami and were super excited to try it out! Atmosphere: the restaurant is super cute - great vibes! Very trendy and it was busy the entire time! Our waitress was awesome and super fun. Appetizer: we ended up getting the burrata appetizer and it was unreal. 10/10 would get again Main course: I ordered the ravioli and it wasn't anything spectacular, especially not for the price. I was expecting a super "wow" sauce and it sorta tasted like tomato paste. It wasn't bad by any means, I just think I expected more. They also ran out of lobster after we had ordered so my fiancé had to switch his meal.. but he ended up loving his food (I forget what he even got... oops) Overall, it was a nice place. But the ravioli was subpar compared to the rest of the meal and experience.

    Legami is new to Charleston, so we had to give it a try. I love that they have a GF pasta option and their braised oxtail ragu was fantastic as a GF option. Their dirty martini needs some work. It was cloudy, or too dirty. We started with the burrata, which was good but not the usual burrata consistency. It was more like mozzarella. The octopus app was on the smaller size Justin called it "super skimpy". We did love the atmosphere and had a great server! Overall a fun experience with friends.

    I can't believe Legami wasn't on my radar until recently! We had an incredible dinner with outstanding drinks. The Legami Martini truly made its mark with the burrata-stuffed olives. We tried the oysters, which were uniquely paired with pickled onions. The added crunch gave them an unexpected texture that actually worked surprisingly well together. The Shrimp Kataifi was another favorite. I had never had anything like it before, but I do wish the portion included more than three shrimp for the price. This was the best Gnocchi dish I've ever had. It was both creamy and flavorful. If Gnocchi isn't your style, I highly recommend the Pappardelle Al Ragu. Overall, it was a great dinner with exceptional service and beautiful presentation.

    Such a great restaurant for dinner. We started out with burrata that came with unlimited focaccia. It was perfection. The pesto was super fresh. For our entrees we had the risotto al brasato and tagliolini lobster. The risotto was insane! So so good. The lobster was also very good, super tender. For dessert we had the creme brulee with vanilla ice cream. It wasn't anything worth raving about but everything else was perfection. The service was great and nice ambience.

I have sampled a little of this & that when different people order different things and we all try them. The gnocchi is wonderful. I would like to highlight the Thanksgiving dinner though. They have a set menu and they give you a little of everything. There was plenty of food for the whole table and everything was exceptional. It was wonderful and one of the best meals we have had in Charleston. Have a meal here at least once. I promise you won't regret it.

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!

It was one of those moments when they told us they were full, but two people left the bar at the same time. We were so lucky! So many people were waiting. We started off with Mai Tai's and they were delicious! The bar stools were super comfortable and the entire restaurant was beautiful. We shared a shrimp roll as an appetizer and it was incredible. We also loved the fries that garnished it; they were almost like a hash brown. We also shared a pasta with ricotta that was incredible. We ended the evening with a gin drink that was featured on the menu. So glad we were able to eat here!

Despite being ready when reservations opened, the best we could manage was a lunch reservation. No worries though because lunch at Obstinate Daughter is better than no Obstinate Daughter at all. We were able to find parking in the neighborhood and had a short walk to Middle Street. From the moment we entered the establishment, I understood the hype. Our server, Sara H., was wonderful throughout the entire meal and we kicked things off with cocktails: the Abandon Ship and All Hands on Deck. Both were excellent and set the tone for what turned out to be one of the best meals of our trip - and there were a lot of highlights!!! I also ordered the Tuna Crudo special, which was incredibly fresh and a great way to start my meal. For the table, we shared the Local Lettuce Salad, the Farro with Chicken, and the Moultrie Pizza. Everything was seriously fantastic. The Local Lettuce Salad was simple but executed perfectly with croutons, parmesan, egg, and buttermilk vinaigrette. The Moultrie Pizza, topped with pepperoni, Mepkin Abbey shiitake mushrooms, tomato, mozzarella, and parmesan, disappeared quickly. And the true star of the meal for me was the Farro with Chicken. The combination of Brussels sprouts, peanuts, balsamic, black truffle, and perfectly cooked chicken was absolutely incredible. If I lived nearby, I would order this dish again and again without hesitation. Considering the restaurant's location on Sullivan's Island and its well-earned reputation, I also thought the prices were relatively reasonable. I loved the vibes. It was packed but the service never wavered. This meal was so, so, so, so, so good. In fact, if we could have snagged another reservation during the same trip, I absolutely would have returned. The hype is real. Obstinate Daughter is worth it!
