Our Take

Sorelle sits in South of Broad doing straightforward Italian cooking, and the case for it is consistency: food, service, and room all pulling in the same direction rather than one carrying the other two. That's rarer than it sounds in a neighborhood built on tourist traffic and postcard charm. The reviews back it up specifically — not just good food, but good food matched by service that keeps pace and a room that earns its keep.

Michelin's selection in 2025 confirms what the pattern already suggested: this isn't a place riding on location or looks. It's an Italian kitchen in a historic pocket of the city that's actually doing the work, meal after meal, well enough that locals keep saying so. Worth the trip, worth the return visit.

The Spot
Sorelle occupies a large footprint on Charleston's Broad Street, built around the idea of Italy's all-day cafes and markets rather than a single dining format. The space is divided into a mercato, a central bar, a wine room, and a grand dining room, letting guests move between a casual market bite and a full sit-down meal under the same roof.

Chef Nick Dugan runs the kitchen with a modern spin on Southern Italian cooking, working Lowcountry ingredients into fresh pastas, wood-fired pizzas, and seafood dishes. The bar program follows Italy's drinking culture, with a wine list organized around the country's regions alongside an Italian spirits selection.

Upstairs, a third-floor private dining room designed by Meyer Davis Studios adds another layer — a round marble table, velvet chairs, a billiards table, and a lounge area built for smaller gatherings or full buyouts.

Sorelle was named to the Michelin Guide's Selected list in 2025 and was named a best-of pick in Charleston City Paper's 2026 city guide.
