“Nico has amazing seafood and drinks. As well as dessert. Their service is amazing and very welcoming. Thank you for Noah our server for being great and helpful with all of his recommendations. Definitely eat their ice cream and brownie for dessert!!”
“Truly outstanding! I have visited Charleston for years, and yes there are good restaurants downtown, BUT Grace and Grit is equal or tops them!! We dined twice, and both times the food is exquisitely executed, so fresh, flavors created with great care, service each time over the top excellent! The manager came over and was truly a gem! He cares so much for the patrons, restaurant and staff, and it shows! Facility is spotless, modern, and very inviting. Lots of choices for beverages, and bourbon lovers will be ecstatic with 400 choices! Try the local appetizer clams, I am still craving them they are so good! We are from Florida, and their key lime pie is better than the original in Key West, and honestly other places I have had in Florida. Loved everything, from salad, to clams, oysters, fish all so fresh, and my husband had their pork chop that was also beyond excellent! This is our new favorite place first over anything famous downtown. Don't pass up- you will be sorry you missed. Location just a minute over the bridge, no challenges for parking as free large lot.”
“This restaurant is tucked away in a very unassuming spot, but don’t let that fool you. The food, the wine, and the service were all outstanding! This is one of Charleston’s hidden gems.”
“I would say the taste of the food is like "American - Indian" the spices are mild. I lived in Asia before and used to work with a lot Indian clients, so I know which one is a good Indian food. Nonetheless I like their service and the restaurant interior.”
“We went a few weeks ago. It was fabulous! We will definitely be going back again soon! We had the oysters and lobster. The restaurant was super clean and everyone looked as if they enjoyed working there. The atmosphere was upbeat and fun.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Although I have never stayed at one of the PH rooms, I have dined there a number of times since they’ve been open. Each time has been such a memorable experience. Staff always goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, at home, and catered to. The environment of PH (both indoor and outdoor) is immaculate. PH is curated with beautiful southern decor which makes you feel right at home in The Old Village. But I have to say, I experience just as good of hospitality at their Basic Kitchen location. Basic Projects seemingly always go the extra mile in training their staff to deliver the true southern experience. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough to anyone local or visiting Charleston.Nearby activities: Walking distance of Old VillageSafety: In safe Mt. Pleasant, Old Village neighborhood.Walkability: Walkable to Shem Creek.Food & drinks: Clean and upscale eats.Noteworthy details: Curated southern decor.”
“This is a lovely upscale restaurant. The staff was attentive and friendly. I had the scallops which were delicious. Probably the best I've ever had. They were tender, flavorful and grit free.”
“Our son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Red Drum was truly exceptional, and I can't praise it enough. Every aspect of the evening exceeded our expectations. The staff was not only professional but also warm and friendly, ensuring that every guest felt welcomed. The food was outstanding, receiving numerous compliments for both its variety and quality. The manager went above and beyond to accommodate our requests, making us feel at ease throughout the entire event. Words can't express how pleased we were with our experience. Red Drum has certainly won us over as lifelong patrons, and I'll confidently recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.Parking: Not a ton of parking at the restaurant, but plenty of on street parking in the surrounding neighborhood.”

“Wonderful traditional Greek food with some twists. Great quality, very tasty and since the owner/chef is right there in the kitchen overseeing things, you are in good hands!”

“My wife and I stumbled upon this great place in the heart of the French Quarter. Exceptional service, great food, and a very cool Charleston pub. We shared the fish and chips, and also the house chips with their ranch dressing for dipping. Wonderful.”
“We went a few weeks ago. It was fabulous! We will definitely be going back again soon! We had the oysters and lobster. The restaurant was super clean and everyone looked as if they enjoyed working there. The atmosphere was upbeat and fun.”
“We had an excellent experience at Page’s! Everyone that works here is so friendly, and the food is fantastic. We had the Redneck Rolls which were unique and delicious - I would drive from Charlotte just to get these again. Also, for other southerners who are harsh tea critics, theirs is great!”
“I thought I knew what a good breakfast biscuit tasted like, until I came here for the first time. The breakfast here puts all others to shame! Not only is the food delicious (especially the vicious biscuit itself), but the service was fast and considerate. If you are in the area this is the best place you could get breakfast from!”
“We have been getting Banh Mi's takeout from the Spring street location for years and it is always great. Traveling through Mt. P and found this location. Great open atmosphere and bar. The bartender/ manager(?) was super accomodating, knowledgeable and once we understood this location was affiliated with the downtown location we knew whar we were going to get.... Beef curry bahn mi and the sticky wings delivered. Service was great and look forwad to returning when we are on that side of town.”

“Friendly staff, fast service even during busy times in the morning. Nova classic sandwich is packed with so much goodness. Smoked salmon was stacked so high and cream cheese made it even higher. Can't wait to go back.”
“Best pizza I've ever had in my life!! Service was amazing, they make everyone feel like a part of the family. We were visiting for vacation and found this gem based on reviews. My only regret is that I can't go here in a regular basis.”
“This was a 10/10 experience. Staff were so friendly and welcoming, and my avocado toast was the best I’ve had in a WHILE. Can’t forget the Java - my iced vanilla oat milk latte was PRISTINE. Strong coffee, good quality, 10/10.”

“We had the best drinks ever made by the bartender Gage! He was so sweet & made such delicious drinks. We had the lavender sunset, blackberry smash, and a Kentucky mule. He even made up a delicious mocktail for my 10 year old niece. We’ll definitely come back! ?”
“First experience at Sommba - our server, Kristen was knowledgeable and friendly. The food was outstanding. My personal favorite was the whipped feta. Great selection of wine ?”

“This restaurant was so cute and the food was delicious! The staff were so kind and friendly. The kids keep asking to go back which is rare for everyone to agree on the same place! We highly recommend the creamy polenta, it was so good we ordered a second round!Kid-friendliness: Great kids options, friendly staff”
“Ordered the soft shell crab special… it was HUGE! Got two of them along with risotto and broccoli. We had good service but witnessed a few customers coming up to staff saying they needed service at their table. Otherwise we were just fine. Husband got the new Tuna bowl… which was also amazing. I will say my soft soft crab special, being $49.95, should have been disclosed ahead of time (the cost.) I probably would have still ordered as the dish was a ton of food but for others, maybe something to consider. I wish I snapped a pic of it. Broccoli was cooked PERFECTLY and the risotto was sooo good. It had corn and asparagus cuts in it. Amazing. Overall, great experience, with friendly staff.”
“Unfortunately the portions have been reduced significantly. My wife’s beet salad was one little strip on a plate, barely a side salad size for entree size price. My roasted duck leg had maybe one little fingerling potato and about 4 green beans with it.All else good but we left hungry and we are not big eaters.”
“The food is excellent. Do not be fooled by it being located in a strip mall, the food is very tasty, and creatively designed. You should try the catfish or Salmon.”
“Outstanding ! Hands down best meal I have had in years . Tucked away in an old shopping center : this place is a hidden gem . We are very choosy about date night and this place did not disappoint. There is NO need to go downtown for amazing food . Just head over to Ville . It is an experience. My only regret is that we didn't tell the waitress about our time crunch . We were there from 6:30-8:50 and had to get our kid at 9:00 . I would have loved to have dessert. So I have something to look forward to next time . I will for sure be back .”
“Absolutely delicious! We were so lucky to find Crave on our last night in Mount Pleasant. Perfect ending to our trip. Abigail was a delightful waitress and very helpful. From the sweet potato bread with honey butter, pan-seared cod on hummus with spring vegetables, the Mediterranean salad, and chocolate/peanut butter dessert, we were in food heaven. Even the Sea Island spiced Rum and coke were perfect. Expensive, but worth every penny. We would be eating here frequently if we lived in the Charleston area.Vegetarian options: Several salad options as well as appetizers.Dietary restrictions: My husband and I are diabetic and try to watch carb intake. We are also vegetarian. I didn't do as well because I had to try dessert. However, there were quite a meals that met our needs and we were happy.Parking: Crave is in a cute shopping development. There was parking in front as well behind the restaurant. There was a entrance in the back so that you don't have to walk around to the front door in inclement weather.”
“Wasn’t too hungry, so I ordered the shrimp avocado salad and my wife ordered a flatbread. Both were delicious. We did have to wait a fair amount for a table, but we were a party of 10 on a Friday night, so it made sense.”
“I showed up at 7 minutes before closing time with a special needs adult and a toddler. Server Kelly looked at us as we poked our heads in, looked at the clock, and said "sure, come on in." She proceeded to serve us like we were VIP's and the best thing to happen to her all day. What's more, the food is awesome. Really good. Huge menu for a breakfast place. I'm a fan.”
“We absolutely love the Shellmore. We love going there for a date night and special occasions. Especially if you have out of town guests this quaint little space is to die for!!”
“The food was really good. The service was just ok. The restaurant is located in a shopping plaza. We decided to grab dinner because it was next door to a Total Wine Store and I was in town for a friends birthday and wanted to get some wine. I had shrimp fried rice and a sushi roll. It got really busy pretty quickly. We were never offered drink refills and it took a while to get our bill. Other than that I was not mad at the food.”
“My sister and I were looking for a breakfast place we could sit outside this morning and found this place. Absolutely amazing! The food was impeccable, service was excellent and the outdoor seating was comfortable!! Beware of all of the yummy choices in the pastry case, I wanted to try them all!! I will definitely be bringing my better half here for breakfast very soon!”
“Had the opportunity to visit last night for the first time. Had some apps and pasta. Everything was great . Coming from nyc and Philly we have high standards for Italian cuisine. Most Italian restaurants in Charleston are a disappointment. Savi is our go to place now. If you stop at the bar be sure to say hi to Keith.”

“We love this Thai place while we were out of town. There were plenty of options. It was very clean and tidy. The staff were very kind and friendly and attentive.”
“[Takeout review]Overall: Willing to go back and try more items, but the prices will give me pause.The good: Great flavors all around. Both the chicken tikka and paneer tikka masalas were delicious, creamy, and wonderfully spiced. The rice was buttery and soft, and the naans were fluffy yet chewy. Food was hot and ready upon pickup, and the staff was friendly as well.The not-so-good: Expensive for what you get, since the portion sizes seemed on the smaller side compared to takeout for similar spots. I wasn't a huge fan of the flavored naan, as they were too strong and came in "globs" of spices on top. The naan itself was great, just not that added flavor.”

“The food we ordered was pretty good, although there isn't much to choose from as vegetarians I was happy with my order. The atmosphere is casual and reminiscent of a late 70s diner with a crowd of mostly local high school students. The staff was very friendly and proficient. This is not a location I would have thought to choose, but after giving it a try, I'll quite likely go again sometime.Vegetarian options: Although there are very few vegetarian options, the food that we did order was surprisingly good. I recommend the waffles and hashbrowns.”

“Loved the Reaper and the marshmallow beer (comes with a marshmallow!), but the rest weren’t to my taste. They had pretzels but I wish they had had food the night we went. They provide games and kid toys outside, and comfy couches inside.”

“Chicken. Burgers. Pork chops. Are outstanding. Salads fresh. Two blocks from home. Friendly and courteous service. You get the most for your money in all of town.”
“We chose Toni’s because of their Google rating. It was our first Detroit Style Pizza. Service was excellent and the veggie pizza was too. Unique and delicious .”
“Orlando’s did not disappoint. The pizza was amazing and our server was very hospitable. This restaurant was what I would consider to be a must try if you’re visiting Charleston!! Thank you from all of us at That 1 Painter for the memory you guys created, we will be stopping back by soon!”
“Visited Coleman Public House on Sunday afternoon. Great burger and Beet Salad. Great beer selection.Service was great too.I like a clean restaurant but my eyes were watering from the cleaning solution they use and the smell of it made it hard to enjoy the meal.Also, I can't help but mention that the silverware was what you might expect at Golden Coral not at an upscale Public House.”
“Absolutely the best authentic Mexican food I’ve ever had in all of Charleston county. The people are amazing and the food is to die for!!! We seriously eat here at least once a week ?”
“Thrilled with our experience at this Mt Pleasant coffee haven! The baristas go above and beyond with their warm, attentive service. We were visiting from out of town and found a local gem! The barista provided great recommendations for our iced coffees.”

“I got fajitas. They were not cooked all the way and they were not served on the cast iron skillet. It would be better if it was served on a skillet type. My wife got the quesadillas and she said they were delicious. The waitress and the atmosphere were excellent though. And the salsa that you get at the beginning of your meal was most excellent.”
“Good selection of smoked meats and sides. The only suggestion I can give is offer the pickles and onions as a side dish as well and give your customers sweet corn muffins with their meal.Vegetarian options: Can get a vegetable plate if you want.”
“It's pretty good seafood and a beautiful sunset over the marsh. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The wait was about 30 minutes, and they gave us a pager while we waited outside by the bar on the lawn along the river.”
“Due to all the reviews I tried “Drunken noodles” it was nothing less than delicious. Full of flavor and a spicy kick. We sat outside and our waiter was attentive and courteous. I also had the Jasmine iced tea. It was good.”
“The Greek food I’ve ever had!! The OG gyro was out of this world as were the dolmades and the baklava. Extremely flavorful, authentic and hands down some of the best food I’ve had in Charleston in a long time.”
“The food was delicious and reasonably priced! The back patio was nice but a bit chilly (they had heaters but I was sat in a dead zone and too introverted to ask for a warmer spot)”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“1st time at this location. Waited longer to be able to park due to the congestion in the drive-thru than we did to have our order prepared. As always, most tender, flavor chicken anywhere. Never disappointed. We share a 4 pc box.”
“Groucho’s MtP never disappoints! Super friendly employees, delicious food, little wait times and always super clean facilities. We visit as much as we can to support them! Two thumbs up, Groucho’s!Kid-friendliness: We have the pickiest six year old on the planet and not only do they have PBJ but grilled cheese as well! Thanks yall!”
“This was a last-minute lunch before heading back home because I was craving a grilled chicken sandwich. I ended up with a blackened chicken sandwich, fries, and a sweet tea. Everything was way too good to be fast food. I wish I lived nearby so I could come back regularly. The patio area is also so cute.”
“Food is always delicious, the people who work there are so sweet, and I'm always wow'd every time I go. Does anyone remember when chickfila had chicken salad? I've missed it but the classic carol tastes just like it!!!!”
“One of the top 3 BBQ places in the greater Charleston area IMO. Food is great, service is great, and restaurant is clean! offers indoor and outdoor seating. We go there on average of once a month or more.”
“Jimmy John's is my go-to for a fast, easy lunch. I always get the veggie sub. Very tasty. I've had the Italian sub and it was ok. I like the rewards program since I go a lot I get a free sub every so often or bag of chips. Love the drive thru option and they do get you thru freaky fast.”
“Food is always Delicious, wish they'd bring back the Hot Honey Pimento Cheese Chicken sandwich. Service is always fast, even drive thru. Inside, Play land inside is too loud, can't hear yourself talk...great if you're a young family, but us old folks have done our duty....”
“This Chick-fil-A is always Top Notch!!! Foods always fresh, the orders always accurate, the employees are always happy, I've been there several times the last few months and it's always a place I like to stop at!”
“Delicious sub sandwiches hot or cold. Variety of breads. Fine in or take out. Drive thru window available as well. Chips, drinks, and cookies add to your experience.”
“Little older gentlemen and lady that were working tonight were some of the friendliest people I've encountered in customer service. They set the bar for service and even fine dining establishments should take note. Give these two a raise!”
“Have not ever had a bad meal at CHICK-FIL-A. The only complaint I have is they don't put alot of ice in their tea cups. Their tea is so warm that it melts what ice they do put in the cups. But in a positive note, they are so gracious to add ”
“A little difficult to locate and access for an out-of-town traveler. Billboard said 1/2 mile on right, and may have been access road, but no signage indicating the McD turn.”
“I come here for the breakfast at least once or twice a week and always have a great experience. I order through the app and most times my food is already ready for me. The male manager in the morning is always cheery and friendly. Food is always hot and fresh with my customizations done correctly.”
“The lunch manager and his crew run a tight ship. I went at 1:20 pm on a Monday and it got busy fast. The staff was enthusiastic abkut handling the rush and I got my food timely and FRESH!! Fries were piping hot(just out if the fryer), and my burger a 8/10 in hotness. Definitely a very good Wendy's location that management and the staff should be proud of. Been here many times. Hasn't disappointed yet.”
“Today was our first time eating at Cook Out. We got so much food, huge drinks, everything tasted amazing and so affordable. Friendly workers and sparkling clean restaurant. I'm not a big review writer but felt like I had to. We weren't sure about going because there are some not so great reviews but they are WRONG!! We are just in town for vacation and have eaten at a lot of expensive sit down dinners and we all decided this is the best food we have had our entire trip. I will crave those fries until the next time I can make it to town! Thanks for an awesome experience!”

“Authentic Italian from a chef who's inspiration and devotion comes out in the amazing dishes that he creates. If there is a special, definitely try it because it means there was something special that Chef Davide saw in the ingredients that day. Fresh ingredients and traditional Italian style combine for an unforgettable meal. I've been going since moving to Charleston and will never stop. My 8 yo daughter already thinks it's going to be her first job to be back in the kitchen w the head Chef himself ?.The staff are trained and will treat you like family. Every bit of the meal is important and they will make sure you enjoy it all! And don't even think about leaving without trying the best tiramisu on the east coast....made fresh constantly because it does not last long!And if you're in the mood for authentic napolese pizza, check out his pizzaria just a couple shops down called Pizza Pazzo!”
Cheap Eats
“We adore this place. The owner is so friendly and always greets us with a smile. She remembers my son and treats us with such kindness. We have lived in Los Angeles and have visited Hawaii quite often and this poke is as amazing as they come.”
“Making my first ever Google review and cannot say enough good things about my FIRST experience at Lodi!!! First off, the staff is super friendly, helpful, and generous. I ordered a hot chai latte and was handed an iced chai latte. When I mentioned that I ordered hot (at least I think I did, but sleep deprived mom of an infant here can’t remember whether I said hot or cold) they immediately re-made my drink and said to keep the iced one as well. And as a bonus, they let me try their ham and cheese croissant, which was delicious! And the chai latte is excellent too! I cannot recommend Lodi enough and only wish I checked out this place sooner! I will definitely be back :-)”
“In Charleston, there are a lot of options when it comes to açaí bowls. I feel that I have worked my way around town and can confidently say these are the best ones. The granola to açaí ratio is perfect, size is great, amount of fruit is not skimped. If you’re not sure where to grab a bowl on the way to the beach, this is it.”
“I visited Nautical Bowls in Mount Pleasant, SC during a spring break vacation and I cannot say enough good things about this place!! Everything was delicious and the owner (I didn’t get her name) was SO helpful and friendly. She let me and my boyfriend sample whatever we wanted, as this was his first time trying an açaí bowl. The inside was decorated so cute and is a great hangout spot for friends. I will definitely be back when I come back and visit? If you’re looking for a great smoothie bowl, this is the place!!”
“This is probably my favorite coffee shop in the country. The galaxy latte and tidal wave latte are worth the long trip for us. The atmosphere is so pretty, too. During quieter moments, it’s a great place to get work done.”
“I had the pleasure of stopping by there yesterday afternoon and it was awesome. Super friendly staff, great space (i didnt know about the huge warehouse area until I was about to leave) and the 4 different beers I tried were are very good and true to style. My only regret is not grabbing a 4 pack of the Black IPA to go! PRO TIP" Google Maps will get you almost there...its a blue building down behind a row of industrial buildings, across the street from two blokes :)”
“I love that there are gluten-free and dairy-free menu options. They even brought out separate dipping oil and gluten-free bread. The atmosphere here is always enjoyable and food is always delicious!”
“The coffee is tasty & the Sunrise bagel was so delicious and kept me full all day! Multiple bagel flavors but I got the everything bagel it tasted so fresh and good. Love the ambiance and plenty of tables to work or chat.”
“There's nothing not to like about this pizza-centric outpost to its sister restaurant, Cuocco Pazzo, located in the same strip center on Johnnie Dodds Blvd. The interior is small and intimate with maybe 10 tables and a two stool 'bar' which also serves as a counter for pick up orders. Beverages are limited to beer, wine and soda. There's 4 appetizers of which three are fried and of course, meatballs in marinara ... three salads - Caesar, Caprese and House, several calzones, 3 paninis and 10 specialty pizzas, one size. We also reviewed a sheet with 7 pasta dishes which seemed odd given these same entrees are offered at Cuocco Pazzo, a few doors away. Our order was simple. We were sharing the Caprese salad ($13.49) and a Carnivoro (Meat Lovers) pizza. Our server, Grazie, advised that they were running out of pepperoni (huh?) and that other meats would be increased. Hub started with a great pour of Chianti, well priced at $7.00/glass. We both enjoyed their take on the Caprese salad - it was a perfect size for sharing. The presentation was lovely ... 8 half moon slices of fresh, seasoned mozzarella, alternating with thin slices of juicy tomato topped with a chiffonade of fresh basil ... accompanied by a nice portion of fresh mixed greens, gently tossed with a yummy balsamic vinegar. The pizza, probably between 12-13 inches was delicious, but, perhaps a bit overpriced at $21.95. The crust was thin, which is my preference. The toppings were tasty ... but, there could have been more and it could have been crisper which knocked my rating down from 5 stars to four. We ordered the mini cannoli to go. They were tasty, but overpriced at $6.00, considering their size. Our server was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back. I love a panini and definitely want to share the Caesar!”
“We had a fantastic dinner and experience at Mi Xao. Not only was the food delicious, but the service was outstanding too! We can't wait to come back again. It's definitely one of our favorite places to eat in Charleston!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Such a Chicago time capsule, I loved it! Fantastic authentic Chicago Dogs. I wish I could move the location to Charlotte so I could eat there every week. Best hot dog you'll find in South Carolina hands down.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Second State Coffee in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. The vanilla latte was a delightful treat, and the overall atmosphere, combined with excellent service, made it a five-star visit. Highly recommended for coffee lovers!”
“So good! We are vacationing in the area and saw that Kairos had great reviews. They certainly lived up to those reviews for my family. Fresh and delicious food, huge portions, very reasonable pricing, and the restaurant was very clean (including the restroom). My husband, teen son, and I all got the platters. Each of the platters in the pix were only $12.99 each! How great is that!? I personally chose the harissa chicken and falafels for my proteins and they had great flavor and texture. The platter is perfect for someone like me that can't decide and wants some of this and some of that. Don't miss out on this gem!”
“Kudzu Bakery goes above and beyond to provide the most delicious baked goods and to satisfy its customers. The Mount Pleasant location is the best bakery in the Charleston area.”
“A friend recommended this coffee shop and I’m so glad she did! The flavors are delicious and not overbearing at all. The lavender flavor is something that often is too strong or tastes artificial but that was NOT the case here! I got white chocolate and peppermint, my friend got lavender and white chocolate, and our other friend got toasted marshmallows and banana. All three were amazing, seriously!! We will be back.”
“We absolutely love the Shellmore. We love going there for a date night and special occasions. Especially if you have out of town guests this quaint little space is to die for!!”
“If I could give 10 stars I would!! I was visiting my son last week in CHARLSTON SC and was lucky to have experienced this Amazing High quality Brewery !!! The people and Staff were amazing and that comes from Great Ownership!!! If you are ever down in SC try this place for INCREDIBLE BEER !!! Respectfully Patrick Baker !! Special thanks to the Owner Rhett and James the Brew master”
“Had the opportunity to visit last night for the first time. Had some apps and pasta. Everything was great . Coming from nyc and Philly we have high standards for Italian cuisine. Most Italian restaurants in Charleston are a disappointment. Savi is our go to place now. If you stop at the bar be sure to say hi to Keith.”
“This is a "cozy" little restaurant. I love Korean food, so I was very pleasantly surprised to find Korean food on the menu and not just Japanese food (which I also love). However, one must order and pay online by using a QR code on one's phone, and then select items without being able to ask the server about them. The Bulgogi was very delicious, as was the tempura shrimp (perfectly cooked and large pieces), and one side order of kimchee (not really enough) which does NOT come with the meal! And, they no longer serve the Korean "side dishes" which make Korean dining so nice. And, many menu items listed are not available - so why list them at all? It was very loud as well. Still, I cannot wait to return to try their other Korean dishes! I highly recommend Kanpai.”

“Really enjoyed our meal here. Atmosphere, food and service were all excellent. Had a table by the window overlooking a small pond. They appeared to have outdoor seating in warmer weather. Menu was clearly labeled with gluten free options which included several appetizers and decent number of entrees. They did a great job accommodating my celiac disease. My husband and I tried the pad thai that came with chicken and shrimp and massaman beef curry. Both were excellent!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options were clearly marked on menu.”
“Absolutely amazing! Adam our server was awesome and very knowledgeable! The hostesses were very welcoming! The bone in ribeye, the wine suggestions from Adam, the green beans, whipped potatoes, soft shell crab, and the wedge salad were all absolutely perfect!! I don’t think you can go wrong here and would come back regularly if I lived here. If I had one complaint at all was the bartender could have been more friendly, but we all have bad days. Great job overall!”

“Shawn C. was an excellent server and made sure to make our 16 year old feel special on her birthday! The food was excellent, and was served quickly! We very much enjoyed the entire experience!”
“Visited this place on vacation and I have to say I am blown away. The food was delicious and the service was the best service i’ve ever received. Our food was out in 10 minutes after ordering. I would 100% recommend this place for a quick and yummy Mexican restaurant.”
“Great beer battered fish and chips. You can't beat the location, with outdoors seating by the Wando River. Ambre, our waitress, was great.We'll be back.”
“Great place to catch the game. They have tons of tvs, reasonably priced drinks, and lots of yummy snacks. Was able to catch the Super Bowl without a wait for a table.”
“Great atmosphere and people. Perfect location for North Mount Pleasant. Just need to navigate a bit to get to it, going through Brickyard or the windy road near the bank. Plenty of parking, and safe to leave your car if you have too many. Amy and Billy are great bar tenders. Try the wings, Irish nachos or Rueben. They still have a pool table an the claw machine. Mini and normal corn hole. Light years ahead of Mccan's awful management since the pandemic. It's a good time. Very laid back, and cold beer.”
“Fantastic spot. Right on the water. Tons of shade on the deck. Several bars to hang out at. BBQ was fine but wouldn’t recommend. The grilled shrimp were awesome. Grouper fingers were delicious and light. Would definitely recommend for drinks. We got the dockside lemonade that was delicious but are way stronger than they seem.”
“Authentic Italian from a chef who's inspiration and devotion comes out in the amazing dishes that he creates. If there is a special, definitely try it because it means there was something special that Chef Davide saw in the ingredients that day. Fresh ingredients and traditional Italian style combine for an unforgettable meal. I've been going since moving to Charleston and will never stop. My 8 yo daughter already thinks it's going to be her first job to be back in the kitchen w the head Chef himself ?.The staff are trained and will treat you like family. Every bit of the meal is important and they will make sure you enjoy it all! And don't even think about leaving without trying the best tiramisu on the east coast....made fresh constantly because it does not last long!And if you're in the mood for authentic napolese pizza, check out his pizzaria just a couple shops down called Pizza Pazzo!”
“We chose Toni’s because of their Google rating. It was our first Detroit Style Pizza. Service was excellent and the veggie pizza was too. Unique and delicious .”
“Good selection of smoked meats and sides. The only suggestion I can give is offer the pickles and onions as a side dish as well and give your customers sweet corn muffins with their meal.Vegetarian options: Can get a vegetable plate if you want.”
“Orlando’s did not disappoint. The pizza was amazing and our server was very hospitable. This restaurant was what I would consider to be a must try if you’re visiting Charleston!! Thank you from all of us at That 1 Painter for the memory you guys created, we will be stopping back by soon!”
“Outstanding ! Hands down best meal I have had in years . Tucked away in an old shopping center : this place is a hidden gem . We are very choosy about date night and this place did not disappoint. There is NO need to go downtown for amazing food . Just head over to Ville . It is an experience. My only regret is that we didn't tell the waitress about our time crunch . We were there from 6:30-8:50 and had to get our kid at 9:00 . I would have loved to have dessert. So I have something to look forward to next time . I will for sure be back .”
“This was a last-minute lunch before heading back home because I was craving a grilled chicken sandwich. I ended up with a blackened chicken sandwich, fries, and a sweet tea. Everything was way too good to be fast food. I wish I lived nearby so I could come back regularly. The patio area is also so cute.”
“In Charleston, there are a lot of options when it comes to açaí bowls. I feel that I have worked my way around town and can confidently say these are the best ones. The granola to açaí ratio is perfect, size is great, amount of fruit is not skimped. If you’re not sure where to grab a bowl on the way to the beach, this is it.”
“Awesome service, chicken wings and that crab rice was well worth the trip .Will be back again. All ya that Mac and cheese is a most have 5stars. Keep up the good work.”

“We had an excellent experience at Page’s! Everyone that works here is so friendly, and the food is fantastic. We had the Redneck Rolls which were unique and delicious - I would drive from Charlotte just to get these again. Also, for other southerners who are harsh tea critics, theirs is great!”
“This restaurant is further down the road from Patriot's Point. We were seated promptly and our drink order was taken quickly by our server, Jessica. She also let us know a little about some of the menu choices before taking our order. The portions were huge and fried to perfection. The view from our table was the BEST! If you want to overlook the shops at Patriot's Point. This is definitely the place you want to eat.”

“I thought I knew what a good breakfast biscuit tasted like, until I came here for the first time. The breakfast here puts all others to shame! Not only is the food delicious (especially the vicious biscuit itself), but the service was fast and considerate. If you are in the area this is the best place you could get breakfast from!”
“Nice place to sit outside look over the water and have some shrimps.Wheelchair accessibility: There was a ramp to the main entrance. To get to the patio, you do need to go down 5 steps, however.”

“My family and I enjoyed ourselves at TGI Friday’s! The food was delicious, the drinks were great, & the service was excellent thanks to Tamiia! She was very outgoing, and nice!”
“View, seeing dolphins… beautiful.Food very good.Service…all, I repeat, all servers nice but out of sink as far as coming back to order more drinks, refilling water, seeing how food was and if needed anything. They did ask but we were almost done. From beginning to end a total of servers at least 6.Would we go back. Yup. Food and view made it worth it.Oh, BTW, if you don’t like animals near your food, don’t sit outside because dogs are welcome.”
“Food was good. The rest was just ok. Way too many tables super loud. The sporks were not cool either looks like something you get with pudding. Need some real forks for the bowls. Need better check in system that tells about how long a wait, the canned answer “we aren’t allowed to tell you “ sucks.”
“The food was good, the restaurant is really pretty inside. Parking is a pain but they will validate for you when you get in. I thought they could have more on their lunch menu.”
“I have to send the BIGGEST THANKS to Jan, Arizsa, and company for helping accommodate our large group this evening after The Battery game. We made sure to call ahead to check availability, and they were so accommodating. The food was great and the service was impeccable. Thank you again and again for your kindness. You have no idea how much it meant to our family this evening. As a local, I definitely can’t wait to come back! I know our out-of-state crew feels the same way. ❤️ Southern hospitality at its best!”

“1st time at this location. Waited longer to be able to park due to the congestion in the drive-thru than we did to have our order prepared. As always, most tender, flavor chicken anywhere. Never disappointed. We share a 4 pc box.”
“Wonderful traditional Greek food with some twists. Great quality, very tasty and since the owner/chef is right there in the kitchen overseeing things, you are in good hands!”
