River House.

River House at Montage Palmetto Bluff reinvents the classic steakhouse through a distinct Lowcountry lens. The dining room balances a moody, traditional aesthetic with airy Southern elements, featuring a massive dark wood bar and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the May River. While the design leans into natural textures—wicker barstools and over 100 potted plants—the menu remains centered on high-end cuts of beef and regional game like venison. Chef Daniel Vesey emphasizes seasonal South Carolina produce and local seafood, such as North Carolina rainbow trout. For enthusiasts of rare spirits, the cellar holds over 2,500 wine labels and an impressive collection of hard-to-find bourbons. Downstairs, the experience shifts gears at HUSH, an intimate speakeasy with live jazz and a humidor for a classic coastal nightcap.
