Halls Chophouse
A Charleston-born West End steakhouse that locals rely on for dry-aged ribeye and good service. Readers ranked it the No. 2 steakhouse in 2025.
#3 in Steakhouses
What to get
- Dry-aged ribeye (locals rave about it with truffle butter)
- Dry-aged NY strip
- Three Martini Lunch: three 2-oz martinis with a steak sandwich or hot dog (Thu–Sat 11 am–4 pm)
When to go
Thu–Sat 11 am–4 pm for the Three Martini Lunch deal; it's open from 11 am daily.
Insider tip
Locals pick it over Bourbon for consistency ('I go usually once a month'); service and the wine list get the raves. The seafood-focused sibling Halls Catch placed 2nd for Best Seafood in the 2025 readers' poll.
Heads up
A minority of Reddit diners report inconsistent steaks; TripAdvisor is middling (4.0 from 74 reviews).
