"The owner of the restaurant is a super cool guy. The restaurant is a beautiful house on the right. The food and wine are sustainably sourced. I would try the lamb or the filet if you’re stopping by for the first time. Can’t wait to visit again."

"I highly recommend this establishment. Upon arrival, the ambiance immediately creates a welcoming atmosphere. The staff demonstrated exceptional politeness and attentiveness. The manager personally checked on our table, a commendable practice for a high-end restaurant. We selected this venue for our engagement celebration dinner and were thoroughly impressed by the sophisticated ambiance and exquisite lighting. It proved to be an ideal setting for a couple's dinner. The culinary offerings were, without a doubt, outstanding."

"Excellent service. I had the shrimp and grits - delicious- and my husband had the duck breast, which he finished all but one tiny bite. Both were excellent! Wide variety of NA and alcohol. Our friends both had dessert- creme brulee and chocolate mousse - which I can't attest to but both dishes were clean when they finished. Small dining room but not crowded. Limited seating available upstairs and a large area with a bar out back with live entertainment. All in all, a superb experience ."

"Awesome food. Loved this this place! The atmosphere was top notch. Outdoor dining was very pleasant and comfortable. The service was hospitable and fast. Shrimp and grits came recommended by the bartender and claimed it was the best in the low country. I can honestly agree! It was that good. You have to try it for yourself."

"Upon arrival we were greeted warmly by Devon who was also our waiter. We were the only ones in the restaurant for lunch which made the experience magical. The food was incredible and the rice that accompanied the salmon oh my God they need to sell that independently. It was fantastic. Highly recommend this restaurant 10 out of 10. Will try again."

"La Chev 208 was an amazing place to dine. Our server Jenn was so professional and polite. We enjoyed soups, salads, appetizers and excellent main courses. We reserved the outside tent with the heaters. Ambiance totally amazing!!! There's also an outdoor bar so our drinks came out in a speedy process. This is a restaurant I will have to come back to and share this hidden gem."

"Food is absolutely stellar. We had brunch and it was delightful. Really great vibe on the patio. Beignets were so good we got two plates of them. Duck fat fries, biscuits and gravy, chicken and waffles, and cinnamon toast French toast were so flavorful! Owners and manager both stopped by to see how everything was, which was a treat. Can’t wait to go back!"
