Six Charleston Tables for a Team Dinner

Prime steakhouse · 434 King St · $$$$

Open since 2009 at 434 King Street. The Hall family runs Charleston's loudest power room. Tripadvisor ranked it third among US fine-dining steakhouses. The prime filet and she-crab soup carry it; dinner with wine runs $120 to $180. Several floors and private rooms seat a full team. Book it to toast the quarter.

Prime steakhouse · 225 E Bay St · $$$$

The city's only 100% USDA Prime steakhouse, inside the Market Pavilion Hotel at 225 East Bay Street. Every cut wet-ages 42 to 50 days. The bone-in ribeye and a tableside flambe dessert anchor the menu; mains run about $100. Large round tables seat a group and keep the noise down. The team dinner for a crew that wants steak and ceremony.

#3
Contemporary Southern · 232 Meeting St · $$$

Mike Lata and Adam Nemirow opened FIG at 232 Meeting Street in 2003. Lata took the James Beard Best Chef Southeast award in 2009; executive chef Jason Stanhope won the same award in 2015. Whole roasted fish and the suckling pig feed a long table. Dinner $80 to $120. The team dinner for a group that takes the food seriously.

Southern · 76 Queen St · $$$

Sean Brock opened Husk in an 1890s house at 76 Queen Street in 2010. Executive chef Raymond England now runs the kitchen on a strictly Southern larder. The menu changes daily; dinner runs $65 to $110. The upstairs room holds a team. Book it for cooking with a point of view.

Lowcountry Southern · 185 E Bay St · $$

Open since 1990 at 185 East Bay Street, the room that started Charleston's Southern revival under founding chef Donald Barickman. Shellfish over grits and fried green tomatoes still lead. Plates $50 to $80. The private upper rooms seat 16 to 140: the Wine Room takes 24, the Primrose Room 72. The team dinner with a room of its own.

Lowcountry · 112 N Market St · $$$

Four-Diamond dining inside the Planters Inn at 112 North Market Street. The benne-crusted scallops and the twelve-layer coconut cake are the signatures. Dinner $75 to $120. A garden courtyard and private rooms suit a company table. The team dinner that ends on the most famous dessert in town.

How to Book

Lead time. Book Halls Chophouse and FIG two to three weeks ahead for a weekend group. Magnolias takes private-room bookings further out; name the Wine Room or Primrose Room and your head count. Grill 225, Husk and Peninsula Grill usually seat a team within a week.

Best slot. 7pm. Tell each room the count. Magnolias and Peninsula Grill have dedicated private space; Halls seats a group across its floors; Grill 225 sets a large round table. For a set company menu, ask Magnolias or Peninsula Grill for a private room.

Not for: Skip Chubby Fish and Circa 1886 for a crew. Chubby Fish runs 40 seats and walk-ins, not a booked group. Circa 1886 is a carriage-house tasting room built for two, not a team. For a large company table, book Magnolias' private rooms or Halls Chophouse.
