Elegant but not pretentious, stylish but not stuffy, The Peninsula Grill at the Planters Inn captures the true essence of Charleston in both ambiance and cuisine. Enjoy four-star, four-diamond dining in the heart of the City Market.
Acclaimed Executive Chef Robert Carter and staff combine a passion for the culinary arts with the freshest, finest ingredients available. From our celebrated chef and unparalleled fare to each and every scrutinized detail of our restaurant’s décor, we deliver the finest dining experience in Charleston.
The Peninsula Grill offers both indoor and alfresco dining. Indoor diners will be delighted by Amelia Handegan’s stylish and sophisticated design, dubbed a study in subtle luxe. There is a captivating vibrancy to the ambiance that seamlessly blends the rich elements of world-class fine dining and the laid back air that permeates the region. The bordering-on-rustic bar, with spacious booths, gives way to the understated opulence of the dining room, surrounded by cypress wainscoting, 19th century oil paintings and lush garden views all perfectly balanced by seagrass carpets and velvet wall coverings that harkens back to the days of a classic supper club.
The outdoor dining space is illuminated by old-town gas lamps and graced by crepe myrtle and palm trees. Intimate conversation is punctuated by the harmony of running fountains and the happy chatter of bird song.
