Lenoir - Charleston

We traveled all the way from Wisconsin to eat at a Vivian Howard restaurant and Lenoir didn?t disappoint! As Vivian said on The Life of a Chef, southern fried catfish is the best and at Lenoir, it really was! It was also a great experience to try the pork chop with muscadine jam. I assure you, no one in Wisconsin has ever heard of this mystical fruit, but my husband and I both loved it! Our server, Fawn, was so attentive and kind, especially when they just ran out

This place is truly amazing! One of a kind eating experience and so much fun. They had seasonal dishes that were creative and very well done. The service was incredible, attentive to our allergies. As a gluten free person, many dishes were easy to order. Can't wait to come back!

The food here was very good. Service was a bit slow but may have been related to the fact that we were sitting outside on the porch. Mosquitos were a problem even with fans going. We ordered a couple of apps as well as entrees and the appetizers were good but our flounder was slightly over cooked. Would return for dinner again to give it another try, but would for sure sit indoors.

All the food was fantastic and so were the cocktails. From the starters the Grits and Greens were particularly delicious. There's nothing we didn't enjoy, both the Pork Chop and the NY strip were cooked to perfection and to top it up, the Pannacota for dessert was so refreshing. Staff was very professional and so friendly! I definitely recommend it and would come back.

Very cute eclectic little restaurant with an interesting menu and nice bar service. Butternut squash casserole was delicious. Cheese melted on top and bits of sausage running throughout. Large enough for 2 to share as an appetizer. Cornbread fritters also very good. Tomato pie, a side but we did as an appetizer, was really good. Pie crust bottom with tomato etc on top. Can?t say the flavor blew me away but it was subtle and delicious. Steak was also tasty. Would
