10 Best Brunches in Charleston, S.C. | Condé Nast Traveler

"From the impassive, imposing façade through to the dark woods and cushioned chairs of the main dining room, Hall’s has ‘classic old school steakhouse’ written all over it. High ceilings, oil paintings of dogs and the whiff of affluence cement its personality—it’s a grown up, sophisticated joint and isn’t shy about letting you know it. As with the drinks, the restaurant ploughs a mainly traditional furrow, but the execution is on point. The crab cake eggs benedict is a triumph with its pepperjack grits and Creole Hollandaise, and the Southern Sweet Baked Potato Pancakes (served with bananas and candied pecans) prove too tempting for many diners to ignore. There are other sundry small twists that add an air of elegance, such as the lavender-scented brioche used on the French Toast." - Paul Oswell
