We had an incredible dining experience at Melfi's in Charleston! We were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The atmosphere was charming and cozy, making it the perfect setting for a memorable meal.
The food was simply outstanding. Each dish was a masterpiece of flavor and presentation. The menu offered a wide variety of options, and everything we tried was exceptional. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the sauces were rich and delicious. The pizza was absolutely exceptional! The wine selection was impressive and complemented our meal perfectly.
The service was top-notch,( we recommend bar top seating) with attentive and knowledgeable staff who made excellent recommendations. They truly enhanced our dining experience.
Overall Melfi's is a place where you can savor the flavors of Italy right here in Charleston. We highly recommend Melfi's to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious Italian dining experience.
GET THE ZUCCHINI FRIES!! What a cool place! Likely the best restaurant in Charleston, but everyone already knows that. Drinks, food, coffee and dessert (!!!!) were all perfect. The sweet cream Gelato was actually one of the best things I've ever tasted. GO HERE!
Melfi's never fails to disappoint. The food ranges from simple classics to more complex Italian staples. My boyfriend and I decided to dine in for my birthday dinner, and made reservations a little later in the evening. To start, we shared an order of the arancini, which are always amazing. We also had a stracciatella toast to share, which is always a favorite of mine. It's simple, but flavorful and a fun textural experience. I also had the beautiful lettuce salad, as I love the verjus it is dressed with (plus, it's just so pretty!). For dessert I ordered the plums, which are a seriously underrated dessert at Melfi's. They're served with marscapone, a red wine sauce and biscotti crumble sugar. Absolutely delightful! My boyfriend had the chocolate gelato, and he seemed thrilled. I also ordered a Calabrian Sombrero to drink, and wow! I knew to expect a nice little kick, but I wasn't prepared for such a perfectly balanced drink. It was flavorful and rich, and finished with a bright, slightly spicy note. I would order one every night if I could!
I cannot recommend Melfi's highly enough. The food is always spectacular, with a wide variety of choices that can be amended to accommodate allergies or dietary restrictions upon request. The service was phenomenal. Everyone who helped us was so nice and truly went above and beyond to make us feel special. The atmosphere is romantic, vivid and fun. And obviously, the drinks are to die for! Don't miss out, and book your reservations ahead of time. You'll be glad you did; Melfi's is a Charleston experience that you surely don't want to miss out on.
Perfect place to go with someone special! We loved the calamari, the batter stayed with the calamari and was seasoned well. The service was on point from entry to leaving. We noted that it was our anniversary when making reservations and …
I wish I could give more than five stars for service. Our server Teddy G had everything timed perfectly, answered all of our questions about the menu like he was Italian. But what really blew our minds was that he NOTICED that our table …
Loved our time at Melfi’s. The food was excellent. Atmosphere was great. We could have sat there all night. Our server, I believe his name was Johnny, was outstanding. One of the best experiences I have had due to his laid back nature and …
The wine list is nice & the cocktails are on point. The thin crust pizza was probably my favorite dish. That wood fired oven makes all the difference! It gave New York Italian vibes. No shade, there’s just a difference between Italian, and …
When we first arrived, we were seated at the bar. Wasn't really happy about that as we had reservations. But... the service was phenomenal, and the food was fantastic! What really caught my eye was the attention to detail. I observed the …
I love this charming and romantic spot! I feel like I stepped into a fun,hip vibe that reminds of Italy. The food is among the best in Charleston! One of my favorites… I go back again and again and it always is delicious!
If I could rate the service at Melfi’s a zero, I would. When I first arrived I was told that the initial wait time for 1 person was about 10 - 15 minutes which I found acceptable. I was patiently waiting outside of the entrance when 2 …
