We decided to visit because this establishment was near our hotel and based on a few of the reviews. I emailed earlier in the week to find out if reservations were necessary, and I wanted to ensure a band would be present because we were celebrating my friends birthday. I never received a response but decided to give it try anyway. This is a very nice place and has the potential to be phenomenal, but there are a few things that need to be corrected. Our server did the best that he knew how to do, but it was obvious that he hasn't bern properly trained as a server. Our food came out in no particular order. Food: The flounder was fresh and fried perfectly. I have had this dish at a few other restaurants, and it always has a chutney or some accompaniment. It was also served on a bed of lettuce, which I didn't understand because the lettuce was wilted and there wasn't any salad dressing. My husband had the lamb chops (3), which he enjoyed, but he would have enjoyed better wo the drizzle of BBQ sauce on top. My friend enjoyed her steak, and her husband enjoyed the surf and turf. We thought the sweet potato fries should have been cooked longer because they were soggy, and the green beans were a bit bland. The loaded potatoes were excellent, as well as the cobb salad. The drinks were excellent. I think the owner and chef should sit down and revamp the menu to include at least one side with an entree. For the money we spent, I just expected a little better experience. One check was $140. The other was over $180. When spending this amount for dinner, the expectations are higher.

We visited the Montague Room on Saturday night. The atmosphere was nice and clean. Our waitress was Jordan and she was a total vibe. Her customer service was A1. Our table all order something different. The salmon and brussel sprouts were cooked to perfection. I also had the apple martini that was delicious. Everyone at our table enjoyed their food to include lamb chops, baked potato, salmon, mashed potatoes, and the combo plate. My husband bragged on his side potatoes all night. The crabcake could have been better. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because their is an 18% gratuity added to all checks and the other entrees didn't come with sides for the price, but overall we will be returning.

I wanted to give a fair review & scoring. With this being the first week of official opening, there are some areas in need of improvements. So the break down is by categories. AMBIENCE (5 ⭐️) - Very chill atmosphere! FOOD (5⭐️) - Everything was seasoned & tasted so good. My husband went in a whim and ordered the Tomahawk Steak (MW). And we absolutely loved it. It was moist, tender and cooked perfectly. Job well done. I had the Seafood…crab cake was good, but hunny that LOBSTER was heavenly. Sweet, perfect crunch, not tough…just overall perfect. DRINKS (3⭐️) - Need some work. A lot of our drinks didn’t taste how it should. It was either too much liquor or not enough liquor to even get a hint of it. I did have a drink called Sunset (not the Aloha on the menu) because I saw another table have it…not that was delicious! CIGARS (5⭐️) - Husband loved it! Enough said. HOOKAH (4⭐️) - Flavors was good but we had a long wait time. FYI to future goers, the QR code doesn’t bring up hookah menu, you have to access the home page of their website, scroll down and click on the astronaut to get the flavor menu. MUSIC (4⭐️) - The band was on point but the singer was pitchy at times with frequent ad-libbing. Overall it was good. SEATING (4⭐️) - Inside was pack, outside patio was quick and easy. We chose to sit out on the patio. SERVICE (4⭐️) - Overall good. It did feel a bit under staff. Just from my experience, I feel that the servers could use a little more training on the menu items. It was their first week, so it may get better over time. DECOR (5⭐️) - I was only inside for a quick second but from what I can see the decor looked very chic and classy. It definitely did give an upscale vibe. I used a star rating calculator on google. Overall, the average of stars is a 4.3. We visited the restaurant on a Saturday evening around 7:30p. We would like to visit the restaurant again maybe on a Sunday when they are doing brunch. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+

First visit here and it certainly won't be the last! This place has a wonderful ambiance with vibrant neon lighting and elegant decor. There is a lovely bar with a fantastic selection of liquors and multiple TVs placed so you can enjoy your food and drink while watching a game. This was a soft opening and they had a fantastic turn out. They brought out a majestic tomahawk steak expertly prepared and it was a showstopper. This is a great sign of things to come because they are going to be a steakhouse/lounge. The bar staff was friendly and attentive but my only critique is that they need a bit more experience to handle more complex drinks and the volume of people ordering. The outdoor seating was fantastic as well and they even have a bar location there where you can enjoy your libations and puff a cigar. Once they get the amount of staff needed to handle the foot traffic and get more trained on bartending this place will be the perfect hangout to grab fine dining and enjoy drinks, hookah, and cigars on a lovely night out!

Listen, this place delivered on every level! My bestie came here a couple of weeks ago and the 3 of us went tonight. We got there about 645 and left at 11pm. We enjoyed the atmosphere and mature grown folk crowd. As the night went on, the crowd got larger. That wasn't surprising considering the location. Great food and music coming from the live band was a street stopper for many who were passing through. We sat outside. The breeze was blowing and ceiling fans going. No issues with insects. There was a fly or two but not enough to drive you crazy. Our server Tia was AH-MAZING! Kind, patient and sweet. All of the staff was pleasant and professional. I went inside to use their restroom and it was very clean. The food .. what can I say! It was seasoned just right, plentiful and fresh! I ordered a Cobb salad with a whole flounder. ( I cheated😉 ) I didn't know a meat topping came with the Cobb salad. Chicken, salmon or shrimp. I requested shrimp. 😳 I had no idea that it wasn't popcorn shrimp. Lol That was a meal by itself for me. Lol Everything was so good and that band kept it going and going! There is nothing like this place anywhere in Charleston and finally, a spot for mature grown folk. The Montague Room is a must. Check it out!

I'm here for business and I randomly heard the outside performance from the main road, and pulled up. The atmosphere was a professional and mature vibe. The FOOD was beyond stellar!!!! Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Cobb Salad with Salmon
Absolutely horrible, upon walking in I ordered 3 Green tea shots and was charged $47.00, they added an 18% gratuity on to my bill and the shots were $12 each. Green tea shots are made of jameson, lime soda, sweet and sour mix and peach schnapps into a 1.5oz shot glass. Total rip off and I will never be back!!! If you like to waste money on weak drinks this is the place to go!!! Service Dine in Meal type Other Price per person $50–100 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
