Pelato - Charleston

Went here for the first time on my birthday this past Saturday and it was amazing. Our server Frederick was such a sweetheart and answered all our questions. He even wrote me a little birthday card and made a makeshift cupcake with a candle. The food was so good we had the calamari crispy, chicken, Parmesan, and the shrimp lemon pasta. They were all amazing and I’d go back to try a few more of their other dishes.

Amazing food! We tried multiple dishes including the radiatori vodka sauce, carbonara, chicken Parmesan, house made mozzarella caprese style and the prosciutto de Parma that is sliced in house. All of it was absolutely amazing. The service was wonderful as well. Lisa was our server and gave great recommendations. I highly, highly recommend this place if you love Italian!

Love this restaurant Pelato Charleston that was opened by Anthony Scotto Jr. in 2025. I had the Baked Clams Oreganata, the Radiatori Vodka Pasta and the Dark Chocolate Budino. All were delicious but the chocolate budino was heavenly! My waitress Alden was so personable and was very attentive. I will be going back to try some other recommended dishes. Plus they have free parking behind the restaurant. A must for anyone living in or visiting Charleston!!

Amazing as always! Sloan was very informative for the rest of my party that hadn’t tried the menu, and very friendly! She was a great time! The cacio de pepe is my all time favorite but the burrata crostini is refreshing & filling!

I had such an amazing experience last night! Our waitress, Sarah Rothschild, was fantastic. She was incredibly informative, genuinely funny, and so kind the entire time. She walked us through the menu, gave great recommendations, answered every question, and made the whole evening feel relaxed and fun. The food was some of the best I’ve ever had. Everything came out perfect, and Sarah’s service truly elevated the experience. Also had the best dirty martinis ever! I’ll definitely be coming back, and I hope I get her again!
