Restaurants in North Charleston

“Great food! You can tell the products are fresh and made with pride! Had the tuna eggroll special, best one I've had! Sat outside but fans were on and was a nice night. Service was good. Will go back when visiting SC again!”

“This is the best restaurant we have ate in the area since we've started coming here. Everything we had was delicious and the staff were so kind. Will be a definite stop each visit”

“Fresh and delicious! Really good food and staff was cheerful and friendly!”

“My daughter and I tried Antonio’s on a Tuesday evening. As soon as we walked in, we were delightfully greeted. At the register, they explained their deals, which were the best bang for our buck since we decided to eat at the restaurant. The lovely gentleman even asked us how we would like our pie baked, crispy or ready to eat. Everything from the moment we walked in to the moment we left was great! It is hard to find exceptional customer service like this anywhere anymore!! You should definitely give them a chance to make you a delicious pizza!!”

“We are from the San Francisco Bay area and have eaten at some fabulous authentic Thai restaurants including the Berkeley Thai temple on Sunday mornings, so we were skeptical about eating in a place that doesn't appear to have a large Asian population. But Thailicious was some of the best Thai food we've ever had! The vegetables were fresh, the flavors layered and authentic. The mussaman curry was delicious! The crispyy garlic was also delicious, as was the pad see ew. The pad Thai was different than we're used to but also great. The server Olya was super friendly even when holding down several tables by herself because it's a small restaurant. The owner came out a few times to make sure we were happy, and even offered some free Thai donuts. Please support this small local business!”

“Best fish 'n' chips in Charleston!

Nothing fancy, but delicious, fresh fish and fries.
Don't forget a lot of malt vinegar!”

“I have never tried anything like this before. This was way out of my comfort zone. I'm sooooo glad I listened to my daughter and just tried it!! It was amazing!!!!! I had the acai bowl with collagen, blueberries, strawberries, granola, and Chia seeds. I added some pitaya(dragon fruit) to the first bowl but it was too sweet. So the next bowl i ordered so i could take home for later I left out the dragon fruit and I really enjoyed it!! They fill you up and it is so addictive that you don't realize you ate the whole thing in a snap! Lol you definitely need to try one!!”

“My husband and I went to Dashi last night and it was PHENOMENAL. Kaitlyn (sorry if I spelled it wrong!) was so personable and wonderful—she truly made our night. The Jiggly Caliente drink was delicious, and our food was amazing. Can’t wait to go back!!”

“Came to Charleston for a weekend trip. We wanted breakfast before our flight home and found The Grit Counter. Just ordered the BLT grit bowl….it was absolutely delicious! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere! Will definitely be back!”

“We love the milk teas with tapioca boba. Cute shop with very friendly, kind people. We stop by any time we are on this side of town. Great taste in kpop as well!”

“At this moment, the best Vietnamese restaurant in metro Charleston, SC”

“Daddy's Girls Bakery made my wedding cake and it was absolutely breathtaking and delicious! They were able to take inspiration pictures from Pinterest and create exactly what I wanted! The dried flowers were so pretty and the flavor was amazing. We had chocolate hazelnut and almond. We got so many compliments on it! We also appreciated the amount of tasting samples at the beginning. They really provide you with great experience from start to finish and we will definitely be getting future cakes from here!”

“The bowl of pho that I had was excellent! A large bowl of steaming hot broth, a generous portion of beef, chili oil available on the table for those that enjoy spicy food and the Thai tea was sweet and flavorful. We need this place in Columbia ”

“food so delicious the service pretty quick and the owner very friendly i recommended to you guys to try it their food”

“Absolutely love the chicken shawarma and hands down best pita and tzatziki! My husband got the lamb kabobs and falafel and it was delicious as well.”

“Went here for dinner tonight with my wife, 2 children (9 &12) and 4 other adults. The atmosphere was great. Food was delicious. Staff were amazing. Will definitely go back! Highly recommend!!!”

“Stopped by for lunch and had the butter chicken. It was outstanding! 10/10 recommend!!”

“The food there was delicious and so was the service and the atmosphere and it was wonderful. It’s just that it’s 25 minutes away and I am not a young chick anymore and it’s been a while since I’ve been to the restaurant and my friend went there the other day for a birthday‼️ Genaros is an authentic Italian restaurant and to me that is the best‼️ I sure wish they would open up a restaurant in Goose Creek! it is filled with Mexican restaurants and really needs a good Italian restaurant for all of us Crowfield plantation residences that would enjoy fine food‼️ I speak the truth‼️?”

“Amazing food !!! The staff is very welcoming!! I will definitely be back !!! Try the seafood rice ! You cant go wrong with the seafood rice!!!”

“Great Food fast service. Very clean restaurant”

“Food is outstanding. We have enjoyed their Sunday brunch, lunch and chef dinner. The food is authentic and exceptional.”

“Went for sushi with a couple of friends, got sat pretty quickly. Server Layla was very nice and refilled my water 5 times (I obliterated them every time). Friend proceeded to spill sweet tea everywhere and server immediately got a clean towel and helped. Sushi was very good and I highly recommend going during happy hour, the spicy tuna roll hits harder than the realization that the economy is regressing (would spend money here though) 10/10 will be back again.”

“Everything we have ordered here in multiple visits has been very good. There are many similar restaurants around Charleston but nothing compares to the flavor and consistency of this place. It’s family run and they are very nice. We have never had a bad experience here. The sesame beef is so flavorful and tender. The wonton soup is very close to what you would get in NY. You can easy in at a few tables or take out and they also deliver.”

“I'm so glad Relish has reopened its doors. Not only is it a wonderful learning experience for the culinary students, it's also the best lunch in Charleston.”

“Absolutely wonderful! We had a party of 11. The staff and food was to die for! The Johnsons”

“Not only does Wally make the best food, he and his wife are so kind and friendly. They remembered our order and treated us like family. We will always look to find where Wally's food truck is and go out of our way to eat it. There is never any leftover - it is that good!”

“food was delicious I would definitely go back.”

“extremely well made. Real Thai and real flavor. Definitely going back again soon”

“This was one of the best places I have ever Eaten at”

“Quality not bad, closest one to Goose Creek”

“Symone is awesome. The food is quick to come out and delish”

“Shamar the cook had excellent customer service. Jess Yess was very helpful and helped prepare my food in a timely manner.
Devan also had great customer service ..
These employees truly deserve a raise..”

“food always is the same.”

“This was my first time going to Waffle House and I loved it! I got the all star breakfast with a waffle, eggs, bacon, toast and hash browns. It was only $11 and you get a ton of food for cheap. The hashbrowns and eggs are good and my waffle was perfect. The service was also very good.”

“It was late, and they were the only ones serving food in the area that were open. The food was amazing, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere was good too.(the dining room is closed but they have a carry out window, so it was just a few people outside talking waiting for their orders to come up and everyone was talking to each other, which was pretty cool)”

“if I could lock the doors on this place permanently I would. sat down at the counter for 15 minutes while the staff were walking by me carelessly, didn't even offer me a beverage while I waited. two waiters were holding up the counter by the register doing absolutely nothing. not even busy considering half the tables were roped off and the customers there weren't being helped either. another customer asked if I had been helped and the cook decided she would spout off with an attitude about it. finally got my coffee and tea, never refilled throughout my meal. food was decent and the waiters decided the register was a place to take orders for the customers who were in the building rather than just the place to pay as other wh's in the area operate. terrible slow lackadaisical service and the employees were quick to cop an attitude with any patron who obviously weren't going to be happy with the terrible service they are providing. everyone in that building should be fired. no one expects five star service at a waffle house but these people operate like a prison cafeteria. if you're that unhappy get a better opportunity for yourself. you people give the businesses in North Charleston a bad name and worse service. worst waffle house in the area, will continue to frequent summerville, Ladson, mtp, and the north Rhett locations. will never return to the location on Ashley phosphate.”

“The lights went out at home because of the hurricane. We decided to go to the waffle house for breakfast. I have a 6 month old Chihuahua who was terrified of the rain and wind blowing and the tree limbs falling on the roof so I took him with me. The manager let me bring him in and he sat quietly at the table and enjoyed the attention lavished upon him. Heather was our server. What a great person she is. Wonderful personality and great server. Can't say enough about how thankful I am to the staff. Thank you all at N. RHETT waffle house.”

“This was the best Waffle House that I’ve been to in a LONG TIME. I came in, sat down, the waitress, Mo, was busy at the moment and Cedrick, the cook immediately asked me if I already knew what I wanted (which I did). Mo came right to me as soon as she heard that I was giving him my order, which was kind of funny because they were both attentive. Double the service is better than no service if you ask me. Well, Mo took my order, got my drink, and Mo cooked my order. The grits were buttery and creamy, the eggs were soft and fluffy and cheesy (the perfect cheese eggs, some people don’t know how to make good cheesy eggs, sometimes the cheese get lost in the eggs), the hash browns were cooked to perfection in the middle and had the little crust on the outside, just like I like them. And the waffle, of course, came out right on time!Mo and Cedrick offered exceptional customer service. When good food meets amazing vibes, it’s all anyone can ask for, especially at an American favorite in the south such as Waffle House. Amazing job you two (please give them a raise :)”

“Samantha did a great job for us and was holding down the entire restaurant by herself. Hosting, serving, and cooking. Both of our orders came out promptly and exactly as we ordered them. She deserves a raise for sure keeping up with the whole place herself!”

“Finally popped in to give this place a try and we were so pleasantly surprised! It’s not only a burger joint, but also offers a wide range of options for anyone and everyone. The entire restaurant is spotless and everything seemed to be perfectly organized and stocked. My family of five ranging from ages 2 to 36 enjoyed everything that was ordered. As others have mentioned, the price can get a little expensive, but the pricing is not a secret and listed on the menu so if you think it’s expensive then simply don’t eat out. The Japanese rice was my absolute favorite, but of course the burgers were delicious and perfectly smashed. If I had to find something to be absolutely picky about would be to provide thicker napkins. I felt like we ended up using so much more because of how thin they were. Otherwise, staff was so friendly and helpful navigating the menu and making sure everything was ok afterwards. I do plan on being back to earn more points and try other menu options!”

“Nice, tucked away spot to relax. Even though it was a hot day when I visited, they had more than enough, high-powered fans to keep me comfortable. Will return, for sure.”

“This place is awesome. The atmosphere of the place is so calming, it’s like a little oasis from the outside world. The proprietor is an absolutely lovely woman who makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time to your grandmother’s house, and she’s making some absolutely DELICIOUS food for you. 10/10, will be back.”

“The food was bussing and the milkshake was A1 with my wife ??

Kid-friendliness: Seen kids and toddlers in there , having the time of their life ❤️.”

“Fast friendly service. Great dining experience.”

“Best authentic food truck!”

“Stanley was the Best server and so polite. We had never been here so we tried several different things. It was some of the best burgers and appetizers we have had! Don’t leave without trying the shakes. The variety of ADULT shakes and Beginners shakes was so creative and tasty!! Highly recommend.”

“This place rules...love Rebel”

“No matter your taste palette, there is surely something here you will thoroughly enjoy. And the experience is phenomenal. You can read my full review on aprildishes.com.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Junction Kitchen, and I must say, it was an experience worth raving about. From their delectable Biscuits & Gravy with Sweet Tea Fried Chicken to their commendable commitment to inclusivity within the LGBTQ+ community, this establishment impressed me on multiple fronts. However, what truly stood out was their unparalleled customer service. Upon encountering a slight delay in preparing my order due to an issue with the gravy, the kitchen manager personally approached me to explain the situation. Not only did he offer alternative menu options to expedite my meal, but he also went above and beyond by ensuring I was comfortable during the brief wait. Despite my reassurance that there was no rush on my end, he generously provided pastries to enjoy while patiently waiting for my dish to be ready. It's rare to encounter such transparency and genuine concern for customer satisfaction in the restaurant industry. The Junction Kitchen exemplifies what true hospitality means, setting a standard that many others could learn from. As for the meal itself, it surpassed expectations. The Biscuits & Gravy paired with Sweet Tea Fried Chicken was a delightful combination of flavors and textures, showcasing the culinary expertise of the kitchen staff. Despite the minor delay, the wait was inconsequential compared to the overall dining experience. In conclusion, my visit to The Junction Kitchen left a lasting impression, not only for its exceptional cuisine but also for its unwavering dedication to providing top-notch service to every patron. Whether you're a local or just passing through, I highly recommend indulging in a meal at this gem of a restaurant.”

“The was good , fresh and fast delivery to the table”

“Stopped by here about a month ago with a friend and at first I was skeptical but let me tell you the food was delicious. Customer service was good as well. I've been back twice since then....try the jerk chicken.”

“This is now my new italian restaurant love the service food and the owner makes you feel like your at home. Still my favorite Italian restaurant in charleston and surrounding areas.Jennifer the owner is Top Notch and cares about everyone. There food and service are awesome”

“Delicious food, great service!”

“We were visiting Charleston over the 4th of July. We wanted to take blue crab home, but we needed it steamed. They weren’t steaming on the 4th, but they went out of their way to accommodate us and steam our 3 dozen mixed. My thanks to the staff, they ran a tight ship, and it shows. I had to wait, but I didn’t mind. We feasted on crab because of them working with us. You guys are the best and we will see you once we move for good!!!!”

“My husband got the mint chocolate chip frappe and LOVED it! And he’s picky! I got the iced dirty chai tea latte with cold foam and I’ve had many before, and it was not great. Tasted like cinnamon watered down milk and didn’t get cold foam at all so wasn’t too thrilled given the price I paid for it.”

“My favorite pizza place. Get a 6 inch or 9 inch pizza with your choice of over a dozen toppings and it only takes about five minutes from the time your pizza goes in the oven.”

“One of my go to spots for pho !”

“Excellent service, fresh food cooked to order & tasted great! Only wish we had one in Georgetown! We will definitely be back!”

“Hands down, the Best BBQ in N. Chas! Great and very friendly staff. My son would always get the double cheese burger with everything and he loved it, ordered it every time we went.”

“Excellent food and Services”

“Comfortable place to sit and eat. Some of the best chicken fingers around..the cane sauce is very good..would suggest eating here if you want good chicken fingers.”

“Had a wonderful lunch thanks to Lisa and our server Nic. The "setup" on the table was terrific and everything from the introduction of our server until the final sip of coffee went smoothly and was professionally done.”

“The Lunch Shrimp Bowl was soooo good!”

“Came in late at 9 to finally try this place and was pleasantly surprised! The buffalo sauce has a nice kick and I loved their wrap! We also tried the BBQ sauce to dip our fries and it has a nice smoke flavor to it! Staff was friendly and helpful with recommending stuff as well! The place was also clean and spacious!”

“I have been a member at Mixson for over 2 years and absolutely LOVE coming here! Such a wonderful place for the kids to swim and play outside with so many fun kids activities often planned for them! Not to mention the lifelong friends I’ve made since becoming a member! They love to have events for adults also like oyster roasts and awesome bands and DJs playing! So much fun!!! The staff is always so kind to everyone and always making sure the members are happy. I highly recommend this club to anyone! Mixson is my Cheers! Sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We were shopping at Sam's Club today and had a close friend recommend Culver's. Best fast food we've ever had! Service was amazing! This is a great environment for families. We will 100% be back.”

“Denaya (sorry if I misspelled) deserves a raise! She was kind & patient when I wasn't sure what to order & when there was an issue, she handled it immediately. She's also running the front & drive thru at the same time, which is quite impressive. I hope her bosses realize what a gem she is!”

“Dude you gotta know. This place at 2:12am cooked me up the best food at 2am after a huge night out. Gawd dang the freaking food was so fresh and good. I’m tripping on how good it is. We had 5 orders and they nailed it.”

“Had their Apple French Toast Bake and it was the best food I have ever had!! My family and I love going there for great comfort food; from an old style breakfast to burgers to pot roast for dinner.”

“I asked her to make a Strawberry crunch cake for my birthday last month and she absolutely delivered! The crunch tasted exactly like the popsicles. It was very aromatic and fresh with the strawberries on top. The icing was also the perfect amount of sweetness without being overly so. Will definitely be returning!”

“One of the best cocktail spots in the North Charleston area, and they have always made wonderful beer. Their burger is one of my top 5. Must hit spot if you are visiting the area.”

“Renter beware!! Whatever you do...don't let them book you in a room that faces the front fountain...we were excited about our balcony BUT be ready for landscaping blowers every morning at 7 AND the 10PM parade of plastic trash bins. The noise was ridiculous. Unacceptable actually. Could be avoided very simply if guest comfort was their #1 concern”

“My son introduced me to poke bros and I love the food”

“We frequent Paddock and Whiskey often, sometimes more than once a week! Management, staff, food, drinks… everything is great!! Everyone goes above and beyond to provide excellent service. Highly recommend!”

“Recently, we held a birthday party here and the entire night exceeded expectations. The staff stayed on top of refills, drink orders,
food orders, and they made sure the entire party of 30 plus was taken care of. I have never seen such a well oiled machine in any restaurant or bar and I have to give credit where credit is due. I ordered the 10 smoked wings, phosphate poutine fries, cheddar poppers, and armadillo eggs. Everything tasted amazing including the wings! The meat was smoked and juicy! As soon as you bite into the wing you capture the seasoning rub of the outside of the chicken and when dipped into the sauces makes it to die for. The chicken wing sizes are huge in size comparable to the size of most Chinese egg rolls. To be honest out of the ten wings I could only eat six before I felt full. The fries were covered in cheese curds brown gravy and topped with cheese to hold the gravy within the fries. It took us some time to drive here from James Island but well worth the drive and the wait!”

“The Steel City Special is our favorite. The garlic butter and garlic bread is amazing too!”

“Great coffee, and I loved that they were giving spotlight to local small businesses and artists inside!”

“If the police bring Poseidon / Birria Sampler with the Birria egg rolls in the interrogation room just know I'm telling on everybody ?‍↔️- If the police bring Poseidon / Birria Sampler with the Birria egg rolls in the interrogation room just know what am I saying around the world ???”

“JD was amazing. He gave us the best recommendations for dinner, his enthusiasm was seriously contagious and we’ll be back again for the great food, but mostly to hang with him on the back patio.”

“Great food. Fast Service.”

“Really nice staff. Great food.”

“Good stuff!! An authentic experience and a fun time.”

“I’ve never had fries as good as their fries, perfect amount of salt! Made my food in under 5 minutes and they were all very nice especially the guy who was doing the fries and handing out the bags! Thank you for your hospitality!”

“Great place to relax & enjoy the afternoon”

“That was the location in Centerpoint that said they were closed and it was only 7:45 and your schedule says that you open until 9:00 p.m. on Tuesday night SMH”

“Jo , Megan and the manager were exceptional. The place was clean and the food delicious. A lot of new faces , Much better experience than last visit- will be back”

“I stopped by this Subway for the first time and I was very impressed. The ladies working there where very friendly and professional and my food was delicious and great quality and fast service. I recommend anyone to go visit these ladies and a clean store. I will be back again”

“Great experience! I can’t have dairy so was going to pass and let my family enjoy. But I was told the base is not dairy and I just needed to choose non dairy flavour and toppings. The one I chose turned out to be dairy so they called me up to verify before making. Really appreciated that. Then I told her to choose for me as long as it was non dairy. I was pleasantly surprised to see I still got a chocolate option with brownies for my topping. Tasted great; not like a knock off at all! Was creamy and delicious. Thank Sno Dash for making me feel like a regular ice cream customer ❤️ And if you need non dairy and like chocolate like me try the Brownie non dairy one!”

“The Cajun fries and the fish were fantastic. The service was wonderful and I would definitely come again”

“Great food! You can tell the products are fresh and made with pride! Had the tuna eggroll special, best one I've had! Sat outside but fans were on and was a nice night. Service was good. Will go back when visiting SC again!”

“Clean, fun, a great place to be involved with your children… cafe is great… great you can do the wavier online so it’s done before you come… it is a place of self entertainment like amusement parks business not a daycare to take care of your children … it’s a place kids can run around and you can watch them while you have bite or drink and play date with friends”

“Best steak tacos I’ve had in SC so far! I have tried more than a handful of places since I got here. These are true authentic street tacos with so much flavor!!”

“Food is outstanding. We have enjoyed their Sunday brunch, lunch and chef dinner. The food is authentic and exceptional.”

“Good food at a reasonable price. Waitress staff was excellent. Hannah was our waitress and was totally.on the ball. The Hostess staff could use some training. They were telling people 30 minute wait when they’re were 3 tables available and customers walked out. Rather than helping clear some other tables and counter seating, they chose to stand at the hostess stand doing nothing. Everything else about this place was great and we’ll definitely go back.”

“Excellent flavour and service. Bar opened this week too!”

“My husband got the mint chocolate chip frappe and LOVED it! And he’s picky! I got the iced dirty chai tea latte with cold foam and I’ve had many before, and it was not great. Tasted like cinnamon watered down milk and didn’t get cold foam at all so wasn’t too thrilled given the price I paid for it.”

“We had a Great white added jalapeño and Veg out added pineapple. Great choice
Staff were good.

Vegetarian options: Great white,
Veg out,
Kosmic karma,
Great Shiitake”

“Great place to relax & enjoy the afternoon”

“Chey was the star of the evening. Anticipated all our needs and quick to help with everything. Treated my 10 year old like an adult listening to his wants and needs and making it happen instead of ignoring him and relying on the parents to state his wants and needs.
Dined on 11/7/24”
