Matador Charleston

The Matador is located in the heart of downtown Charleston. Here, we celebrate Mexico's flavors and the world of tequila and agave spirits. The menu features scratch-made dishes using the freshest seasonal produce, seafoods, and meats and the tequila list is extensive, with something to suit every taste. The restaurant's interior is stylish, sophisticated, warm, and inviting. On weekends, experience our upstairs Mezcaleria bar or grab a seat on our rooftop patio. The staff is knowledgeable about tequila and Mexican-inspired cuisine, and they are ready to guide your experience to help you find your perfect drink and dish. Whether you're a tequila connoisseur or just looking for a delicious meal, The Matador is the perfect place to experience the best of Mexico!
