Best Seasonal Restaurants in Historic District - South

We had a fantastic dining experience at Cha Bella! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. We began with the focaccia, which was warm, perfectly seasoned, and paired beautifully with the accompanying spread. The grilled romaine salad was a fresh and flavorful twist on a classic, with a delicious char that added depth to every bite. For our entrées, we enjoyed the duck ragu and seared grouper—both were outstanding. The duck ragu was rich and comforting, with tender duck and a perfectly balanced sauce. The seared grouper was cooked to perfection—flaky, moist, and paired with fresh, seasonal accompaniments that elevated the dish. We finished with the key lime pie, which was the ideal sweet-and-tangy ending to our meal. A special thank you to Shawn, our server, who provided warm, attentive service throughout the evening. His knowledge of the menu and friendly demeanor made our experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for fresh, locally-sourced cuisine served with care, Cha Bella is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back!

St. Neo’s delivered an exceptional dining experience! The food was absolutely outstanding—every dish was beautifully prepared and delicious. The service was equally impressive; the staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel truly welcomed. The only small hiccup was that our table wasn’t ready when we arrived for our reservation, which caused a bit of a wait. However, the staff handled it well, and once we were seated, everything exceeded expectations. Overall, a fantastic restaurant that we’d highly recommend.

We had made reservations really early knowing it was Valentine’s Day. We had an early reservation, so we were not concerned about having to wait. The Bistro did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in the door, the service was impeccable without being stuffy. The limited menu was very well planned, so there was something for everyone and the food was delicious and the service was lovely. And lastly, we are book lovers, so any restaurant that displays books, allows us to learn a bit about the owners. We love that. This was our first time dining at Wright’s Bistro and it won’t be our last.

Ate here on Valentine’s Day. It was a little bit cold and windy, but still, you can’t beat the view from the roof and we had a very pleasant experience. The bouf bourginon special was Outstanding. Mostly small plates otherwise. Tasty cocktails and excellent service (thanks Jill!) Would recommend to others.

Everything was wonderful...from the appetizers, mains, wine and service. Our group had the whipped ricotta, beet salad and mussels for the appetizer. For mains, we have the seared duck breast, house made garganelli and the mustard crusted grouper. All fabulous! Highly recommend and we will be back.
