Hands down the best restaurant in Columbia. The glazed carrots the blue crab raviolo (yes that is how it was spelled) were life changing. I will never be the same.

All around 10/10 experience! From my standpoint, this is the best food in town! The presentation is refined and the flavors are incredible every time. The cocktails are amazing. The ambience is also on point. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Consistently one of the best (and arguably THE best) dinner spots in town. One of a kind dishes, numerous locally and organically sourced ingredients, and frequent menu changes keep it fresh. Excellent bar and wine offerings, and above-average tenders. Exceptional apres diner appertifs. Cozy tables and great little patio. Cordial, helpful, and unpretentious wait staff. Very wheelchair accessible too.

This little dimly lit, quiet spot is a gem. While the food is fantastic, the service is even better. We were so impressed. The menu is also really unique and something I don’t really see in Columbia. For example, we had an appetizer of beef femur bone marrow on waffles with jam. So good! Also, the cocktails are great. Try the Oaxacan Old Fashioned!

Our first visit with a party of four on the Saturday before Christmas. (Note: I accidentally made reservations for the following week, but they were able to accommodate us and were very friendly about it.) We were very pleased with the delicious drinks and food, plus amazing service! This is a gem we’ve sadly missed for years.

Exquisite cuisine, exceptional wine selection and craft cocktails. Fresh seasonal farm-to-table concept. Great happy hour. Best oysters in Columbia! An intimate dining atmosphere experience that is local family owned, with professional, knowledgable, and friendly staff.

This place is amazing! Not only is the food absolutely delicious - the staff was top notch, too. We were seated outside on the patio and it was such a nice evening. Want to give a shout out to all of the servers who made our dining experience so awesome. I will definitely go there again and recommend to my friends.

This was my first time at Cherry Street Cellar. The dessert was incredible. That’s all I got this time. My husband and I plan to go back for a dinner date night. It’s a little pricey, but everything sounds amazing. I attached photos of the menu. Their menus do change though!
