graze

excellent food, superb service-don't miss it!. graze is apleasantdining experience. there is an extensive wine list of nice wines! the food is exquisite. we started with an appetizer of pommes frites fried in truffle oil. go for it! we enjoyed it! my dining companion ordered waffles and chicken, served on a side of maple syrup. the chicken was so tender that a fork could easily cut it. i ordered the scallops served on risotto with green beans. every flavor from the chili to the cinnamon were combined with finesse. and, our third dining companion ordered the blackened salmon on a bowl of leafy greens. i cannot express how grateful i was to finally reach a restaurant in mt.pleasantwhich could cater to numerous palates with a skilled chef. thank you, graze. the wait staff was attentive, knowledgeable and polite. the ambience worked well at our table but it was a little loud. a+

go there!. unexpected and awesome. great food, no fuss. verypleasantatmosphere 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.pleasantand 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. this place will 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!!

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 apleasantlittle place and the prices are good for lunch.

new spring menu is amazing, in most restaurants i have a problem deciding between two or three entrees but here was not the case. everything sounded so good. our table of four decided to try four different things and share, which i thought was a great idea. we ordered, the blue cheese crusted filet, stuffed lemon sole, farfalle with homemade sausage and the sea bass. every bite was awesome, every dish was extremely well prepared and the presentations were also creative. service was great and the wine prices outstanding. had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, for he is also the full time gm, bradford, verypleasantand really seemed to care about the customers, a quality you just don't see in a lot of restaurants any more. overall i give graze and their new menu 6 out of 5 stars! it was really that good.

pretty good - buts needs some improvements. graze is a verypleasantatmosphere and a good location. after having lunch around five times i believe i can write a fair review. the menu has some very nice selections with local cuisine. on one occasion my dish accompanied fried green tomatoes - however my tomatoes were not green. i brought this to the attention of my server who responded sorry some green tomatoes are actually red! once he left the table we all just chuckled! another occasion i ordered a prime rib sandwich which was very fatty. i again brought this to the attention of my waiter who responded, i am sorry. he did not offer to change out the sandwich or to speak with the chef. i did not want to make a fuss so i simply took the sandwich apart and ate the non fatty parts. i believe the wait staff needs to pay more attention to the customer and making their meal as enjoyable as possible especially with the prices one is paying for lunch.

heard about a new restaurant in the patriots plaza in mtpleasantand 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. this place seems like a new mtpleasantkeeper!
