What's more tempting than a home-cooked spread of all of your favorite holiday dishes? If it's not dealing with the aftermath of dirtying all those dishes, we don't blame you one bit. But there's still another way to make this Thanksgiving Day memorable, even without a homemade meal: take the family out to taste the holiday at one of Charleston's most iconic and historic restaurants offering a Thanksgiving dining experience. Several Charleston restaurants are keeping their doors open this Thanksgiving Day to offer three-course meals, specials and more Southern favorites that might just put up a fair competition against last year's green bean casserole.
If you're looking to start a new tradition this year and mix classic holiday fare with a little hometown history, check out these Charleston restaurants.
