Marbled & Fin Launched by The Neighborhood Dining Group in Downtown Charleston
The renowned Charleston-based hospitality organization, The Neighborhood Dining Group (NDG), has announced the grand opening of their latest dining innovation, Marbled & Fin. Successfully beginning operations on Wednesday, June 12, 2024, this stakes yet another claim in the thriving heart of downtown Charleston at 480 East Bay Street.
Taking an “ambitious approach to the traditional steakhouse,” the NDG has confidently planted its flag with another successful restaurant opening after their popular outlets like Husk, Delaney Oyster House, Minero, and The James. Now open seven days a week for dinner service, Marbled & Fin promises clientele an array of exquisite dining experiences.
President’s Ambition Beyond Traditional Steakhouse
David Howard, President of The Neighborhood Dining Group, expressed his excitement for this innovative venture. Reflecting on NDG’s two-decade-long history in downtown Charleston, Howard expressed gratitude toward the community for their continuous support over the years.
In his words, “Marbled & Fin has pushed us to think beyond what a traditional steakhouse can be, and our team is ready to showcase the passion (and fun!) we’ve poured into this concept.”
Marbled & Fin Menu Highlights
Marbled & Fin boasts a delectable menu encompassing dishes such as Caviar Tart with Lobster and Tarragon, Wagyu Fried Rice, an extensive raw bar with Cold and Hot Seafood Towers, and Sourdough Milk Bread, among others for starters.

Beyond that, a host of sides and accompaniments like King Crab Oscar, Blue Cheese Gratinee, and an entire section devoted to elevated potato preparations stand ready to tantalize your taste buds.
