3 Best Day Trips from Charleston, South Carolina | Condé Nast Traveler

"Despite its unconventional approach to, well, everything—the drink menu is called “grass-to-glass,” and the “earth-to-table” dishes have names like Dirty Candy—Vine is regularly hailed as the best dining experience on the island . It feels like a risk, but you're assured fairly early into the meal (probably around the time you're tasting that beet cobbler-cum-caprese tower with the funny name) that it's one you're right to take.  Brush aside any skepticism and order the Blackberry Lavender Martini. There are plenty of serious (and seriously good) dishes to try, too, like a silky black truffle linguine and tender crispy duck. Given the playfulness and whimsy of the menu, it makes sense that servers have an equally ribald senses of humor. Watch them try to indulge the diners who don’t quite get the joke—it's dinner and a show." - Paul Oswell
