graze

good eats. had been hearing about graze from lots of friends, decided to have lunch with a colleague visiting town and it was fantastic. i had the prime rib sandwich and it was great. the aged tillamook cheddar really set this sandwich apart and the addition of horseradish mayo added just enough kick to make this one of the better prime rib sandwiches i've ever had. only downside was theplacewas slammed and had to wait 20 minutes or so for a table. it was a friday so just consider that an fyi if your going during lunctime, but hey, with food this good, the wait was well worth it.

go there!. unexpected and awesome. great food, no fuss. very pleasant atmosphere and quality ingredients. can't wait to go back. easy to park, but make a reservations because it is a small restaurant. if you're too full for dessert, get it to go! everything was amazing.

graze. awesome. was staying in mt. pleasant and didn't want to drive into charleston to eat. wanted really good food but somewhat low-key. didn't want to have to get too dressed up. thisplacewill suprise you because it is in a strip mall, but the ambience is great, and they have amazing food. our experience, the service was great. we didn't have to wait. we split the tomato garlic soup and i highly recommend it for an appetizer. i had a pasta with mushrooms and goatcheese and loved it. my husband had some kind of beef tips and he loved them. we wanted to go back the next night!!

best yet!!!!. i must admit that despite my friends urging, i have avoided thisplacebecause of the prejudicial thought that there cannot be a good restaurant in a strip mall. has my opinion ever changed. from decor, to wait staff, to food - all the way through dessert - this has to have been one of my favorite meals yet. i highly, highly recommend you save room and finish the meal with the pb gelato dessert concoction. so worth every single calorie. i loved thisplaceand look forward to going again!

gave thisplacea try for restaraunt week. food was mediocre and way over salted. the restaraunt was very loud. greatplaceto drink but if you want great food try somewhere else.

gave it another chance. update - we went back and gave it another try. service could not have been better. everything from drinks to appetizers to dinner was handled professionally. the food was the real star. chicken livers were awesome. salmon was excellent. not one bad meal in our group of six. pork was outstanding. very nice and well priced wine list. thisplacehas a faithful local following. we will return.


very disappointed. we were a party of 5 on saturday night. it took the waitress over 20 minutes to bring us our drink order and water. fearing we would wait another 20 minutes before seeing her we ordered. food came out in 10 minutes. never any rolls, drink refills or even advice on the menu. we were brought our check even before the last person finished dinner! no offers of desert or coffee, etc. food was good but the plain decor and poor service will not have me returning.

we were seated right away, the waitress was very attentive and theplacewas packed on a monday!

i'll give it another try.... but i won't be ordering the falafel, it was falawful. it was two huge under cooked (and by under cooked i mean practically raw) falafel patties. pretty sure you can't get sick from raw falafel so i tried two bites, it was a mushy, mealy, mess with absolutely no flavor. i am so starved for food that is not "low country cuisine" and was very excited when i saw the menu. i had really wanted to try the korean bbq, but i think graze may be committing the typical restaurant sin of trying to do too much.
on the upside, the pomme frites were fabulous, the garlic aoili could have used one more clove of garlic and a touch of salt. the yogurt sauce that came with sandwich was delicious, so i dumped the falafel and ate the pita with the sauce.
i had picked up my order, so i did not have the option to tell a waiter or manager. i did have an inner struggle whether to review or call, but the falafel was just that bad. i will definitely try it again; it was a pleasant littleplaceand the prices are good for lunch.

beer dinner. went to graze last night for a beer dinner. wow!!! it was amazing. i just found out about thisplacefrom a friend who invited me to the dinner. they did a six course dinner paired with six craft beers for $55.00. i have seen these beers in the grocery store and if i bought one of each off the shelf it would have cost me eaisly $30. the beer was great but what really wowed me was the food. i have dined out quite frequently all over the world as my job required me to travel quite frequently. the food served last night was as great as any i have had. i can't wait to return and try graze again for dinner.

after traveling all day we wanted a quality, quietplaceto dine. graze was a wonderful choice. the food more than exceeded our expectations and the service was efficient and friendly. if we lived in this area i'm sure we would be regulars; but we will be back next time we visit. i'm very happy we found this gem.

heard about a new restaurant in the patriots plaza in mt pleasant and came upon graze. i came in for a quick lunch on a wed afternoon and was surprised at the crowd. i enjoyed the chicken livers with grits, the presentation was really unique. the addition of the crispy brussels sprout leaves was great. can't wait to bring the family back for dinner. thisplaceseems like a new mt pleasant keeper!

awesome!. thisplacewas recommended by an acquaintance of mine but i think now she will be my best friend! everything about my experience was phenomenal! our server was so attentive and led us through the menu with such expertise and thoroughness. i have to say the crab cakes were some of the best i've ever tasted! i treated myself to the pomme frites and they were definitely worth the splurge! i don't usually write reviews but graze impressed me that much! hoping they keep growing and people around the country will be able to try this gem!

yum. what an amazing dinner!! we couldn't have been more happy with the service, the atmosphere, and most of all the food!!!

our waiter was super attentive, we couldn't have wanted for anything. he was great about explaining the menu items we were considering and he made some excellent suggestions.

we started with the tuna tataki - so fresh and delish!!

next it was the lobster mac and cheese - perfection!

and of course, i'm a sucker for fries so we had the pomme frites - with truffle oil - love it!

for dinner i went with the waiter's suggestion of the pappardelle - with spinach, mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes and goat cheese - and again, the perfect drizzle of truffle oil - couldn't have been better!

my date had the rainbow trout it came with delicious grilled veggies and a quinoa salad with just the right amount of smoky-spice - off the charts!!

all-in-all thisplaceis definitely my new fave - i can't wait till next time!!

best new restaurant?. i dont normally write reviews but i have to say... i have been to graze 4 times now and at first i thought it was just because they were brand new that the food was that good. but its not, every time i have been there the food has been amazing!! i live on the other side of the bridge and have no reason to ever be in mt.p but thisplaceis 100% worth the trip. my last visit was friday, the were on a wait but it still didnt take that long, the service was spot as just as it has been with my other visits. i know that sometimes service suffers when places are busy but not here. i have friends comeing into town next week for the holidays and cant wait to bring them to graze!!! love this place

so delicious!. i can't believe they serve this kinda food in a shopping center. way to go graze! super affordable and waaaaaaaaaaaaay tasty! i had the tomato soup...rocked, my had that crab cake.....f-ing awesome, then i had the beet salad with oranges, so dang good, he had the kimchi. thisplacecouldn't have been better. every trip i make to whole foods is gonna have a graze visit included! thanks guys!

had another great meal on saturday night,placewas busy as usual. had to wait but well worth it. another great dining experience.

had top five meals of my life here! was treated great from the moment i walked in the door to the moment i left. the manager was very helpful with suggestions on the menu as well as wonderful wine pairings. the food did not let us down! my husband and i shared the duck liver mousse then the crabcake as well as the mushroom papperdelle. both outstanding. our only regret was that we didn't have enough room for dessert, this time! will definitely be back and will tell all my friends. a must visit!
