High Cotton Maverick Bar & Grill, Charleston

High Cotton, like the phrase, is first class, high spirited, livin' large. Its mahogany woodwork, thick old brick walls, ancient heart pine floors and high ceilings evoke feelings of warmth and well being. The banquettes and ceiling fans conjure images of Hemingway, Bogart, Gable and Tracey. It's truly a place to talk, about faster horses, older whiskey and fortunes made and lost. The food is straightforward, virile and robust. Red meat, game, fresh fish. Familiar, irrestible desserts. This is the top of the food chain in quality and preparation. You'll find this place has a soul as old as a lowcountry oak.
