The Old Gin House
This bistro in the Old Gin House hotel—once the site of a cotton gin—serves breakfast and dinner, which features a selection of well-prepared dishes such as rotisserie chicken, grilled fish, fresh lobster, steak, and pastas. This is an upbeat, fashionable, and welcoming place, which explains why it's so busy—both in the main dining room bordering a flower-filled courtyard and at the umbrella-shaded tables on a waterfront patio across the street.
