FIG
Charleston, South Carolina
Yes, it's kind of named after a food — but FIG doesn't really stand for what you think. Food Is Good is the mantra at this restaurant, which offers seafood-focused entrees, sharing-sized vegetables, and delicious appetizers. But just as big an attraction are the cocktails, which range from house-created drinks to updated takes on the Negroni, as well as a "Make Your Own Manhattan" program offering 14 whiskeys, eight vermouths, and nine different bitters, or enough variety to make over a thousand different drinks. Yeah, you're going to be here a while.
