The Restaurant at Zero George occupies a boutique hotel built in 1804 in Charleston's Ansonborough district and serves a multi-course fixed tasting menu Tuesday through Sunday. Beyond the dining room, its bar pours zero-proof cocktails year-round, including a summer Garden Suite Spritz of hibiscus and blackberry topped with a zero-proof sparkling rose.
The standout is a full non-alcoholic beverage pairing built by lead bartender Casie Fennell to mirror the tasting menu, offered for $50 versus the wine pairing's higher price. Pours have included a Wolffer "Spring in a Bottle" N/A Rose, an Italian Soda with sweet corn and salted vanilla, a Cacao Old Fashioned made with orzo malt, and a Dirty Chai Espresso Martini dessert cocktail. According to the Post and Courier, N/A sales tripled in the first six weeks after launch.
