15 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Johns Island

“To say we’ve been sleeping on this culinary gem would be the understatement of the year 🫠 Unbelievable meal and wonderful service by Kim tonight!“

“We recently visited Charleston and forgot to make dinner reservations, that’s when we happed on to The Royal Tern. Despite no reservations, they gladly seated us at a great table. The food was exquisite, everything from the Raw Bar, the fried shrimp, to the halibut. The halibut was prepared perfectly and was so unique; the ingredients worked together in delicious synergy. My cocktail was on-point, too. As a home cook, being able to watch the chefs prepare the meals was fascinating. Mad respect for their craft. Met one of the owners as he was making his rounds in the dining room, and he was a lovely person. He even printed a map w/shortcuts for us since traffic is so bad in the Charleston area. Highly recommend, will definitely be back next time we’re in town.“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“KISS Cafe is truly a hidden gem that has captured our hearts. From the moment you walk in, you’re treated like family—by the warm, welcoming staff, Chef Tim, and the incredible Ms. Leslie. The food is consistently phenomenal, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the love they show to our children (and everyone else’s) is something you just don’t find everywhere. Their dinner club nights are a highlight for us—perfect for a spontaneous date night with an amazing menu and vibe. We’re proud to be regulars and even prouder to support such a special local spot that brings so much heart to everything they do. KISS Cafe is more than a cafe—it’s a community.“

“Thank you for supporting The Point help local charities make a difference in the community. We couldn’t do it without you .“

“The little hiding piece of perfection was awesome! Food, we had banners and corned beef, was delicious. Bartender was constantly making sure we were good. Servers was friendly and helpful.

Other than the perfect lighting, great selection and staff my only thought was some Irish music would have set a better tone.

Side note : save a little room for a small frozen yogurt next door. They staff was great too and their yogurt delicious!

Thank you for the experience.“

“the best food on John's island. everything you eat is great!“

“So yummy. Friendly, helpful staff!“

“Always a wonderful experience, the food and service are excellent“

“I visit here when I am in the Charleston area, which is mostly in the winter and early spring.

Each time the waite staff has been extremely helpful and attentive. No matter what else is going on, they always are on point.

The gumbo is very good as are the grouper bites. The flounder is also very good.

I prefer sitting in the enclosed patio area which seems to be more comfortable although I have been inside for dinner as well. Just a different feel.

I would highly recommend this location to anyone.“

“we have been coming here for the last 3 years, 1-2x a year from Atlanta. Great vibe, good drinks and bourbon. Had a great time hanging with our servers on Monday, we were the only ones there for a while. Micah, it was fun gaming with you.“

“chicken tortillas soup is amazing,!!“

“The loaded hot dog is my favorite anywhere! The drinks are perfect and the atmosphere is terrific! You need to check this out!!“

“Waffle House is a ritual and a core memory that spans generations. Born and raised in the South, I took my young babies and my Dad to breakfast last weekend, and such wonderful folks. (Probably the cleanest diner ive seen in years). Anyway, they do a splendid job. One guy had a Citadel ring on which is always a plus 👌“

“Love sitting outside and watching the boats come in and go out… ♥️“
