Cypress Lowcountry Grille

Cypress Lowcountry Grille Review

From the owners of Magnolias and Blossom comes a renovated 1834 brick-wall building with an urbane contemporary decor. Rust-color leather booths, a ceiling with light sculptures that change color, and a "wine wall" of 5,000 bottles keeps things interesting. The cuisine is high-end Southern-American, with fresh local ingredients accented with exotic flavors, notably from the Pacific Rim. Try fabulous salads, like the hearts of palm and baby greens with local goat cheese topped with a walnut vinaigrette. The duck is a good entrée choice, as is the fillet cooked over hickory wood and topped with a Madeira wine sauce. Executive chef Craig Deihl consistently creates simple yet elegant fare, and you can do the same with his cookbook called, of course, Cypress.

    Been there a few times. Business...wouldn't have gone back otherwise. Small portions, usually way too salty, absolutely nothing special about the place. The Lavender martini was said to be great! Horrible. Way too sweet and no one in the croud could finish it.
