    Amazing food and drink! Went for my birthday and had a great time. The halibut, potato leek soup, and the cocktails were perfect!

    Took my daughter for her first time at L'Opossum while home during Thanksgiving and it couldn't have been a more special night and awesome experience for her. My wife and I do quite often and wanted to celebrate our daughter's job offer prior to graduating from the University of South Carolina. Making a reservation was so easy on Open Table and upon seeing I could reserve a table I did it immediately. When we got to L'Opossum we were greeted by everyone as soona as we walked in. As soon as our table was ready we sat and started chatting with our server, Kendall (who is amazing), talking about our day, evening, and welcoming us. Drinks were amazing including a newly created Mocktail that was recommended. Every aspect of food was amazing, we have never had a bad meal and absolutely love every item on the menu. We ordered desert, coffee, and got the chance to sit and enjoy the moment in an amazingly fun and unique environment. Always enjoy our trips to L'Opossum and know we will have an amazing evening everytime we go. Cheers to L'Opossum for consistantly being beyond amazing.

    All of our dishes were beautifully presented, amazingly flavorful and simply delicious!! Get the La Petit Mort Au Chocolat En Flambe for dessert for some fiery entertainment.

    Once again an incredible dinner for our anniversary celebration. L’Opposum has been the most consistently delicious and welcoming restaurant for the almost decade we have been going here. They always are incredibly accommodating and provide genuine hospitality. We are so very lucky that our anniversary falls during fresh truffle season. Please do yourself a favor and get the truffle service when it’s available. It’s worth it!

    The reputation of L'Opposum has always been exceptional and it more than lived up to it last night' Cannot wait to go back! Faberge egg and Beef Wellington were superb, even the bread was special.

    As always, L’Opossum did not disappoint. Our server demonstrated her love of her work through her knowledge of the food and with humor. Each dish was unique and perfectly balanced and seasoned.
