Coast & Kaminsky’s

On Friday afternoon, Grandma and I drove to Charleston where we would spend the weekend. We made reservations at Coast Bar and Grill for dinner and had plans on meeting Taylor there. They are only open for dinner and it’s a very popular place so it’s best to make reservations if you plan on going. We got there a little early so we started with some drinks from the bar.

For an appetizer, we split their bacon wrapped sea scallops and a half pound of peel and eat shrimp.

The bacon wrapped scallops were huge and wood grilled and basted in pomegranate BBQ glaze.

The shrimp were fresh, coated in old bay seasoning, and even better drenched in butter.

For our meals, Taylor ordered the sirloin with a side of asparagus and parmesan mashed potatoes.

Grandma and I split the grouper with sautéed veggies and parmesan mashed potatoes. The fish was great and the veggies were the best I’ve ever had!

When we were done our meal, we really wanted dessert! The best place to get a late night dessert within downtown Charleston is hands-down, Kaminsky’s! It’s a small place on North Market Street, but super cozy and relaxing.

“Kaminsky’s entices visitors into its cozy atmosphere with a rotating selection of delectable desserts made in house daily, in addition to heaping milkshakes, specialty coffees and cold beverage creations. Delight in over-the-top varieties of classic childhood desserts, signature hot spirited specialties, dessert martinis and hot toddies. A full beer, wine and liquor selection is also available.”

We ordered hot chocolates, a cookie sundae, and a coconut creme pie to go! The service was great and everything came out quickly. If you come in the middle of summer there will be a line down the street, but the turn time is pretty quick! Thankfully, we were able to get right in.

The cookie sundae comes with two very fluffy, warm homemade chocolate chip cookies, vanilla bean ice cream, whipped creme, and chocolate syrup. Perfect for two!
