Charleston’s Newest Restaurant Openings, Now on Resy

Kelleanne and Ryan Jones (of Kiki & Rye and Community Table) are creating a buzz downtown with this wood-fire-fueled treasure in a vintage house refitted into a series of stylish dining areas. A specialty is the cowboy steak for two with coal-roasted garlic.

Sharing is the right move at this light-bathed Spanish-flavored Mount Pleasant destination from the team behind SAVI Cucina + Wine Bar. Choose a tableful of small plates — seafood, meat, and/or vegetable — then dig into one of the Valencian-style paellas.

You’ll definitely want a table at chef Esteban Diaz’s graceful restaurant inside Port of Call’s Food + Brew Hall to enjoy his ever-changing eight-course fixed-price menu of traditional Peruvian cuisine, with an emphasis on Peru’s unique seafood dishes, from tiraditos to causas.

You’ll want to grab a chair — or a seat at the room-spanning marble oyster bar — at this turn-of-the-century-themed seafood destination in The Pinch boutique hotel, created by the group behind Philadelphia’s popular Mulherin’s and Hiroko.

Gather a crew and head to the perpetual party that is Ritual, courtesy of a greenery-filled rooftop with views over the Cooper River, a vibe that summons up the Yucatán coast, a seafood-leaning modern Mexican menu, shareable cocktails, and late-night VIP table service for special occasions.

You might think you’ve found the coolest spot in some magical destination when you step into Gingerline’s colorful Latin American-themed dining room. Find a seat beneath a fringed umbrella on the terrace on sunnier days and dig into the ceviche, street tacos, or grilled Peruvian chicken skewers, no flip-flops required.

Here’s a good one: a bright two-level bar with serious cocktails, an all-European wine list, an abbreviated menu of small and large plates (do not skip the raw bar), and an airy beachfront atmosphere, put together by the owners of the next-door 167 Raw and 167 Sushi Bar on Bay Street.

There’s plenty to love within the imaginative seasonal American menu at this handsome neighborhood restaurant from Dano and Bethany Heinze, veterans of Charleston’s acclaimed McCrady’s and L.A. hot spots Animal and Jon & Vinny’s. Remember to check the blackboard menu over the antiqued mantelpiece for daily specials.
