    I had been here before and enjoyed it. Upon arrival our party noticed a distinct odor that was not pleasant, but we were seated by an open window, which helped. My friend and I each had the steak sandwich’s which were very disappointing. The meat was tough and extremely difficult to chew. When the waitress asked how everything was going, my friend said the meat is very tough…her replay was “ do you want more napkins.” The lunch menu prices were very high for such poor quality food. The fries were great.

    We have been dining at Church and Union every year for the past 3 years during our annual Christmas visit to Charleston. This time was so disappointing. We will not be back. The sweet potato soup was warm when it should have been hot. The ravioli with chicken added was sooooo bad. We specifically asked how much chicken was on it and the server said that it was a pretty good amount of “sliced” chicken on top. It was actually what appeared to be cubes of processed chicken and barely any of it. There was also an off putting spice in either the sauce or inside the ravioli and it wasn’t good. I couldn’t even finish it and I was sharing with a friend. Another person in our party had the Beast Loaf, he said it was very good. It’s a shame they have gone downhill, I love the venue and it’s in a great location.

    Overall experience was very nice. Food not great. Eggs weren’t cooked all the way on my husbands order. Toast was thin on the avocado toast and butter knife not the best tool
