    Caryleigh was a wonderful, attentive server. The food was stellar and we will be back. Michael, who recommended the restaurant, gave us a list of Charleston restaurants to visit and we’ll keep it forever for when we return. We visited four others on the list, and they were great southern cuisine. Burwell will always be our farewell evening experience because it was the best in Charleston!

    Came back to Burwell's for my birthday. Have eaten her many times in the past. Our server, Destiny was great, she made us feel at home. I ordered the 8oz fillet. The cut of the fillet seems different than normal,. The cut must have been toward the head end of the tenderloin vs the chateaubriand section, it was a little tough to cut but tasted fine. My wife ordered the She Crab soup and it was spectacular. Her Caesar salad was just average, nothing to write home about. We split the cheesecake which was delicious, however the accompanying hot coffee was "weak". They provided a birthday plate with complete with candle and treats, Nice Touch.

    We completely enjoyed our experience at Burwell’s Stone Fire Grill! The food was delicious and our server was fantastic! The atmosphere is amazing, and yes, it could be a bit loud. However, it didn’t affect our experience at all:)

    We celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary at Burwell’s, and it couldn’t have been a better choice! The traditional gift for five years is wood, so I thought a wood-fired grill would be a fun way to tie that into our celebration. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, helping us choose our drinks and meals. My husband tried Wagyu beef for the first time and absolutely loved it! They even surprised us with a special anniversary dessert, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food, service, and atmosphere were all wonderful. We had an amazing evening and will definitely be back!

    It was good but they brought us a Happy Anniversary dessert when it was a birthday… then brought the right one. I think the complimentary dessert could be better. Otherwise fab!!

    Service, food and attention to detail was outstanding. We were able to split an 8 ounce filet for only a five dollar surcharge. 8 oz. is too much food as we just usually order the 4oz Nathan was a great server.
