18 Essential Restaurants in Charleston
"Every critical element of a well-honed restaurant has been consistent at Costa since its opening day. The stately dining room with gilded touches and midcentury modern furnishings is transformative. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive without being intrusive. The food is a testament to chef Vinson Petrillo’s Italian heritage, with bold flavors and precise technique. And the wine always pairs up. Start with hamachi crudo and a seasonal burrata preparation, then move on to fresh pastas, and don’t forget an order of eggplant Parmesan to share with the table." - Erin Perkins
