1010 Bridge.

Situated in a sleek, plant-filled space on Charleston’s South Hills, 1010 Bridge serves as a sophisticated anchor for West Virginia’s evolving culinary scene. Chef Paul Smith leads a kitchen that prioritizes Appalachian traditions through a contemporary, global lens, blending Lowcountry influences with Southern, Asian, and Italian techniques. The menu is defined by locally sourced ingredients, featuring inventive plates like Dijon-dill glazed salmon and cast iron-seared skirt steak. An open kitchen adds a kinetic energy to the refined dining room, where subway tiles and warm wooden accents create a polished yet approachable vibe. The beverage program is equally thoughtful, offering a wine list of depth and a cocktail menu known for earthy, unexpected riffs like the beet-juice-infused Bridge Sour.
