Located in Historic Downtown Summerville, The Eclectic Chef is a favorite among locals. Owned by Chef Ben McCollum, it offers a variety of dishes and desserts daily, such as soups, sandwiches, paninis, fresh salads, and various cakes and pies. The restaurant has a cafe feel to it, and guests can enjoy a cozy meal inside or dine outside on the brick walkway under covered tables. In addition, The Eclectic Chef also caters private parties and corporate functions. The extensive catering menu includes everything from traditional Southern meals (buttermilk fried chicken, barbecue, shrimp and grits) to entrees like Seared Ahi Tuna, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Italian Lasagna, Beef Tenderloin and more. Chef McCollum can work around any budget, and is willing to accommodate customer requests.
