Restaurant 1796

"A sophisticated cottage vibe with seriously elegant and delicious food. While traveling home from a work trip we decided to visit the famous Mrytles plantation and decided to get some brunch from the restaurant there.  What an unexpected treat. The atmosphere was that of a small cottage with the wood and open hearth in which they prepare many of their dishes. The service was excellent. The mimosas were truly bottomless with the glass never emptying due to the prompt service. The food was as exquisite as any restaurant I have ever been too. Everything we had was a flavor explosion that would be extremely hard to find a complaint for. A place you must try, and we are excited to return to."

"This place is amazing! Started off with delicious cocktails and the mushrooms and brie dip. Followed by the red fish and duck. Everything wad so delicious and perfectly prepared. The server was super friendly and professional. The grounds of Myrtles and the restaurant itself our just beautiful. I highly recommend a dinner date night and a night tour of the plantation."

"Loved this restaurant! We had a large birthday party there. We worked with Brittney one of the events coordinators. She was amazing to work with and always so responsive. She ensured we had the best time! We did a 3 course dinner for our large party. The food was amazing, best salad I think I have ever had. The appetizers were great and we all enjoyed the craft cocktails. Everyone loved their main dishes. The servers were very attentive and great to work with. I would love to come back to have dinner anytime. Not to mention the beautiful interior as well as beautiful plantation home."

"The atmosphere alone is worth the drive. There’s a very good, light-hearted vibe in the restaurant. The staff are happy to work there, and I mean really happy. They all spoke so highly of the chef. You can tell he knows how to create a fantastic experience for the customer and the staff alike. The food is gorgeous, and the flavors…there so much going on in one bite. I’ve never eaten anywhere that I can taste a different layer of complexity eat time I chew the same bite. Everything being partially cooked in the hearth made this a very unique dining experience. The portions look small, but they are very filling, so start small and order more, if needed. We ended up with so many leftovers."

"Truly loved everything about this warm and inviting restaurant. Beautiful brick and stone dining room, great bar, private dining, hearth bar and outdoor patio. The atmosphere is great along with the service. Team service ensures that you are always tended to. They have a very nice wine list with a variety of creative cocktails. We sat at the bar by the open hearth/grill which gave us a front row seat watching the creative grilling of featured menu offerings. The food was delicious… I had the braised short rib French dip and it was awesome. Located on the beautiful grounds of the Myrtles; definitely a great destination."
