“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!!”

“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!”

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‼️?”

“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.”

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

“food was delicious I would definitely go back.”

“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!”

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs and several handicap parking spaces”

“Late Night Comedy 🎭 All Star Breakfast”

“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)”

“fellowship services food ... all was great 😊”

“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 :)”

“Nevia was absolutely amazing!!! I do not know why this restaurant location gets so much hate.. but Nevia took care of me with the best southern hospitality ever!!! I actually came in hoping to have great service and great food and that’s exactly what I got!! She was all by herself, bussing and cleaning her own tables while taking care of others needs. The restaurant looked so clean as well. My order was very difficult but she made everything happen for me in a short timely manner. She was just amazing. I will definitely be back and asking for her. And this IHOP officially has my heart!! Thank you Nevia and Thank you IHOP for such an amazing time, scenery and lunch!!! I will see you again shortly Nevia!! :)”

“Yesterday afternoon, 3/15/25, my wife and I had lunch at Smashley's for the first time. North Charleston's best kept secret. We ordered zucchini chips, burgers and brussels sprouts. Wow ! Great food and the guy who took our order was informative and very friendly. Great stop, see you again ! John and Sue R”

“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.”

“Enjoyed an afternoon with my family down by the water with beautiful views and great brews.”

“We made a great choice for my husband’s birthday lunch was great and our server Guy was on point with extra drinks ready things I needed before I asked . We’ll be back. Thanks!”

“Absolutely love Rebel!!! The entire staff (including but certainly not limited to David, Jeremy, Leland, Shannon and Chef Dutch and all the whole BOH staff) are professional, fun and all around just great at their jobs….. the food is delicious and well priced, the atmosphere is inviting and best of all the margaritas are ALWAYS on point.

Don’t leave without trying the shakes. The variety of ADULT shakes and Beginners shakes was so creative and tasty!! Highly recommend.”

“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.”

“Atxo Rosso Vermouth on tap was delicious and loved the variety of tinned fish they have. They have some nice outdoor seating and great vibes from the bartenders. Loved all of it! 5/5”

“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.”

“This is a great local BBQ place! Even if the SC sauce wasn't good (it IS), the staff are the best around! Very friendly, welcoming, and entertaining! Plus, their Christmas decor is over the top beautiful! It really puts one in the spirit of the season! Love this place!”

“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.”

“We’ve always loved Raising Canes Chicken! We need to get some locations in the Columbia SC area so we don’t have to drive over an hour to get it. 😂 The chicken fingers are always fresh and crispy and fries are very tasty too. They’ve got the good ice. Sweet tea is delicious.”

“We sat at the bar for instant service; not too bad. The bread was really good and my meal was delicious. I had the Chicken Parmesan with a baked potato and broccoli. Super good chicken.”

“Great food and nice people”

“I’m from Canada, so when one of my friends suggested all you can eat pizza for 9$ I had to go check it out. Upon arrival, the place smelled amazing. I was greeted by the manager Karen and Amanda, whom welcomed me to the store but also USA. They were very friendly and always announced the pizza in their own unique way. My friends even went out and said their pizza tastes better than any other cicis pizza in different locations. We will be seeing you soon again thank you so much!!”

“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!”

“The food was great and atmosphere clean. Great place for a date or family meal.”

“Excellent food and Services”

“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.”

“When I tell you this place is the real deal…..Food so good make you wanna slap yo mama!!! Everything is top notch and thought out on each dish. My husband had the collards, hush puppies, corn on the cob ( should be in the dictionary next to the word FLAVOR) and the baked beans. I had ribs, Mac and cheese, collards, deviled eggs and cornbread. Everything was delicious 😋 This establishment takes pride in being the best. Now I see why it has five stars ⭐️ Keep up the great work guys. Amazing 🤩 💯🫶🏽

Vegetarian options: Yes! My husband doesn’t eat meat. Ordered four sides.

Parking: Right next to Planet Fitness!!! Workout 🏋️‍♀️ and eat.”

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

“This was one of the best dinners I’ve ever had!”

“Was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the burger all the way is. I never thought a food truck burger could be this tasty. Will be going back and definitely recommend!”

“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!”

“Session beers, hoppy beers, stouts, cocktails. Great atomsphere. Deck outside tables. Good vibes good times.”

“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”

“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!”

“Every time I come to Charleston and want fresh seafood my favorite and only place to go is Marvin’s.Thank you for years of fresh seafood and customer service.”

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

“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.”

“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 ???”

“Great food. Fast Service.”

“Knowing there was a big festival at riverfront, we went for brunch today and the bartender was excellent. We were recommended to go grab a pint and lunch. The bartender was super attentive, we were never in need, everything was on point, without asking (even water). The crowd was a vibe. Will definitely be back.”

“We had an excellent brunch! The food and service was excellent. This is definitely going to be a new regular place for us🥰”

“I recommend everything about EVO; the food is nutritious and delicious! That's hard to do with Pizza but EVO has dominated that challenge!!!”

“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!”

“Yesterday afternoon, 3/15/25, my wife and I had lunch at Smashley's for the first time. North Charleston's best kept secret. We ordered zucchini chips, burgers and brussels sprouts. Wow !

“We came to this location when visiting North Charleston SC. We had a young waitress who had several tables and she did a very good job checking in on us to see if we needed anything while we waited. My husband had the Blueberry Pancake platter with scrambled eggs and bacon. Wow, what a great selection and I had the Chicken and Dumpling soup which was very good. We also had the Onion Petals which was a perk for us since we are in the rewards program. I tipped more than normal because we were happy with the service and she was very polite.”

“Enjoyed our visit, restaurant was clean. Love their salad and breadsticks! The confusing part was the ordering machine on the table, it wouldn't function correctly and we weren't sure if that's how we ordered. A bit confusing”

“The food is wonderful and so is the staff! While sitting outside, a bird pooped in my food. The staff made me a whole new bowl with no issues. 10/10 for service!”

Guy was underrating this with that comment 🤣🤣. It’s better than that - if I lived close by, you’d likely not be able to get rid of me - Thank You 🙏”
