About

— Google Editorial Summary

The Palmetto Cafe at The Charleston Place is an upscale spot but still relaxed enough for a nice brunch or rehearsal dinner — people rave about the shrimp and grits and the seafood, and the club and cake come up a lot too. Expect solid service and a polished atmosphere, not a casual dive.
