Hillary Evans: Food is so good...but the cheesecake is a letdown.
Syd Leigh: The General Taos chicken wrap is the specialty but try their salads. They may sound simple but they are great. The fried okra is amazing. Save room for dessert, the orange sherbet cake is so good.
Maria Ambrose: Fried Green tomatoes, fried oysters, ORANGE SHERBERT CAKE

Zan Elvington: Best bakery in Charleston. No matter what you get... Cake, cupcakes, tarts you will love it! And they have yummy Popsicles!
PureWow: Sugar is best known for its gorgeous, made-to-order layer cakes. But its cookies are not to be overlooked. We love the spicy gingerbread, which is basically Christmas in a bite. Read more.

Pooja Goradia: Strawberry griddle cakes - perfect consistency!
val schomer: It's hard to pick what food was best or which drink was best. The charcuterie board might have been my very favorite, although the carrot cheesecake gave it a run for its money!
Jai Jones: One of the best beer selections in town, but don't overlook the beers brewed in-house. All very unique yet fantastic.
