Grill 225

After having dinner at another location we went up to the rooftop to enjoy a nightcap at their rooftop bar. It was quite a view getting out of the elevator and spotting their pool which looked much too easy to want to walk into it. By pure luck, there was a table available, which we pounced on. It showed such an amazing view of the skyline, underneath a Christmas lights lit umbrella. My best friend ordered a dirty martini while I got a Blue Moon. We chilled out, people watched and looked out to the streets below while just enjoying our vacation.

We were very disappointed with our experience at Grill 225. From the moment we walked through the door we were “not” greeted by the host who just looked angry and unengaged. Our waiter seemed to be serving several other tables, water was never refilled, and we were asked once if everything was ok. We ordered lobster which was tasteless and steak. You would think when picking up our plates, you would notice that only a few bites of the lobster was eaten. We did not speak up because we didn’t want the server to think we wanted money off the bill. When we left we waited 15 minutes for our car. We understand it was a busy evening but when we asked the host he said I just work here!” We find it hard to believe that you would put such an unfriendly rude person as the first impression for the restaurant. A year ago we had an incredible experience at your restaurant…. It has drastically changed. We will not be back again.

Had J.B as a waiter and he was awesome. Food was excellent and what an atmosphere to celebrate my sons 30th birthday. We will be returning.

On the last night of our first trip to Charleston we had the great joy of dining at Grill 225. Delicious food prepared with incredible attention to detail in an elegant setting. The genuine hospitality and warm service from Charleston native John made our evening so special. We started with a great B.L.T. Salad followed by The Jumbo Lump Crabcakes with a Tarragon cream and pineapple relish. Sides of broiled asparagus and the Four Cheese Arancini were a foodies dream. The fantastic Pastry Chefs dessert creations are not to be missed. We enjoyed Carolina Peach Cobbler and The Napoleon. Grill 225 exemplifies Charleston in taste and presentation of a truly memorable fine dining experience.

The food and service was excellent

Grill 225 never disappoints. Top-notch service and food was amazing. I love that they accommodated me with my table near window. The people watching and view of the customs house was fantastic.

The food, the ambiance and service were 10/10! Will be returning to celebrate!

Beautiful, clean place with perfect waiters

I came here because they were known for the nitromartinis. It has been a min since I was last here but they don’t have the drink I ordered. It was a nitromallow. Yep, it has liquid nitrogen with marshmallows on the top. It was basically like a s’mores martini. It pairs really well when you go up to the rooftop and enjoy it while watching the sunset. Service was wonderful, you get a cool show when the bartender prepares it. Honestly, I recommend getting any nitromartini. It was slightly expensive for a drink.
