welcome to Abbracci A place to gather

Welcome to Abbracci Italian Cuisine & Cocktails, where Italian tradition meets coastal charm in the heart of Mount Pleasant. Inspired by the Italian word for “hugs,” Abbracci is more than just a restaurant—it’s a place where connections are nurtured, and every meal feels like a warm embrace. Founded by longtime locals Don and Joanne Migliori, Abbracci reflects their deep-rooted Italian-American heritage and passion for creating inviting spaces that bring the community together. With years of experience in the Charleston culinary scene—including the popular Migliori’s Pizzeria and Legami—Don and Joanne have poured their hearts into crafting an elevated yet welcoming dining experience for couples, families, and friends alike.

Crafted for Memorable Moments
Designed with a mix of elegance and comfort, Abbracci offers the perfect setting for date nights, celebrations, or just a relaxing evening out.

Whether you’re sipping wine under the stars or sharing a meal at our community table, every visit is an opportunity to create lasting memories.

A Culinary Journey
Under the leadership of Executive Chef Devin Sansone, Abbracci’s menu blends rich Italian tradition with the fresh, vibrant flavors of the Lowcountry. From house-made pastas like ricotta gnocchi to signature dishes like braised pork cheek rigatoni and fresh cioppino, every plate tells a story of love, heritage, and exceptional culinary artistry.

Located at 1146 Muhlenbergia Drive, Abbracci invites you to discover a dining experience where the warmth of family and the beauty of coastal living come together.
