Bricks & Barrels is a steak and seafood experience voted three consecutive years as Charleston's Favorite Restaurant in the annual People's Choice Awards. Known for its unique ambience that relaxes the mind and rejuvenates the spirit, Bricks & Barrels features four semi-private dining areas that give the sensation of dining inside a whiskey barrel. The restaurant’s interior features wooden whiskey barrels used as dining tables contrasted against the rustic brick façade. But the food & drinks are the highlight, with the Green Tomato Napoleon being a favorite appetizer. The Mediterranean Chicken was nominated for Charleston's best dish by The Food Guy, a local food critic: bone-in chicken breast braised in capers, figs and olives created a beautiful symphony of flavors (sweet, tart, salty, earthy) on a colorful, gorgeously presented plate." Charleston's Favorite Bartender Drew serves specialty cocktails, local craft beer and award-winning wines. Memories are made at Bricks & Barrels.

    Early table on a weeknight, so the restaurant was quiet and not at all crowded. Enjoyed a nice glass of Pinot and a wedge salad with grilled chicken. Everyone in my party agreed that our server, John, did a fabulous job.

    This was probably the worse experience I have ever had. I had made reservations two weeks prior and ended up being seated in a small room in a corner that had a big party in the same room. We felt like we were just slammed in this room to get us out of the way. This was supposed to be a nice valentine dinner but ended up to be a little awkward. Nothing toward the waitress but I think a place of this status could do much better.
