A favorite of both visitors and locals, Magnolias is a well-established Charleston tradition offering wonderful cuisine.
Because it's so popular, it's wise to plan ahead, especially on the weekends (you can make reservations by calling 843-577-7771 ext:221). However, the effort is well-worth it. Here you will find traditional Southern cuisine featuring the fresh, seasonal produce of the Carolinas, with everything from steaks to seafood and greens to grits. The cuisine is influenced by the rich and complex history of the Charleston, drawing from West African and Caribbean cultures, Native American culinary innovations, and early European dishes. An extensive wine list is also available. There is also convenient free parking next to the restaurant.
