Charleston has found another successful transplant with the opening of Butcher & Bee, a sandwich and mezze focused restaurant using local products. The restaurant has a modern, industrial feel and is very open. There is an open kitchen with dining seating as well as a large, full bar that serves the full menu. The restaurant is open late night which draws a fun scene and lots of hospitality professionals.
The top portion of the menu is comprised of "mezze". The Hot Potatoes were my favorite, great flavors with the sweet and spicy complimenting one another. The carrots were also excellent with the dual sauces on the plate. My favorite dish I tried was the octopus poke. The octopus was finely chopped and tossed with the peanuts, escarole, and benne on a bed of the crisped Carolina gold rice; the flavors and textures were well balanced in this dish.
