New American Restaurants near North Charleston, SC

“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!“

“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.“

“Would recommend to anyone looking for a good drink, good music, or just a nice atmosphere. I went in for live local music and was pleasantly surprised by the customer service I received by both Michael and Nelson behind the bar. Even though it was busy they made sure to deliver a great drink with even better customer service.“

“Buffalo Chicken dip and chips were excellent and the Cajun fries were a fave but the sandwiches were not (and that's probably just personal preference so give it a try.) Bartender was friendly and made every effort to ensure quick service and that all needs were met.“

“What a wonderful stay we had at the North Charleston Marriott!! Jessica at the front desk is absolutely incredible!! She was very sweet, professional and accommodating to all the guests…a true gem! Housekeeping also did a great job and we love that they even offer housekeeping since some hotels don’t in these post-Covid days. This hotel is in a great location, just off I-26, close to the outlet stores and restaurants, but far enough away from all the traffic in that area. Our room was a King Junior Suite and it was very spacious, with one and a half bathrooms, and a comfortable couch. Not a lot of drawer storage for clothes (2 small drawers in the desk & 1 under the safe), but there was plenty of room to hang clothes to the left of the closet, so it all worked out. You can also hang some things in the small armoire/closet, but the items hang front to back, so it’s a little difficult to access things. The safe was plenty roomy and the bath and bed linens were nice. The bed is softer than our bed at home, but we both slept pretty well. We loved the walk-in shower and the water pressure and temperature were truly great! The bathrooms had built-in night lights behind the mirrors and the bed had this really cool ambient lighting above/behind the headboard that could be turned on or off. Lots of extra seating in this room with several chairs and the L shaped couch. The tv selection was just “ok”, in part because several of the channels, such as HGTV, did not come in. The wifi worked well at times, but no so well at other times. The AC worked well and there were plenty of places to charge your electronic devices. We ate dinner at the restaurant and Kelly & Becca were our severs on different nights. The food at the restaurant, HC Provisions, was excellent!! We had the wings, the chicken and waffles, the Caesar salad and the housemaid chips and they were all excellent! This hotel seems to be a popular venue for events. There was one going on Saturday night and we noticed several business functions going on during our stay as well. Crystal and Sheila were in the M Club Lounge at breakfast time and they were both great and did a great job of keeping everything well stocked. The breakfast offered scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes, yogurt, cereal, muffins and pastries, hot oatmeal and biscuits and gravy till 10am. During the rest of the day, you could pop in for coffee, water, sodas and juices as well as snacks such as chips and cookies. The evening offered hors d’oeuvres but the one night (Monday) we arrived at 7:20pm, everything was already being cleaned up, so I guess we missed it. The outdoor area offered a pool and two fire pit areas which would be great to sit and catch up with friends and family if you were here with a small group. We had such a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel and we would stay here again.“

“food always is the same.“

“I always order an ALL-STAR SPECIAL online/to-go & am pleased 98% of the time. My food is always fresh and I'm greeted when I walk in! They do not compromise on quality and the atmosphere is always chill. Thank y'all!! 🧇🥓“

“I can’t remember my server’s name, but she was amazing. Not only that, there were other servers who were very attentive to my needs and if I needed anything in addition to her. The drinks were great. The food was delicious. I didn’t take any pictures, but the steak bowl and fries pickles were tasty! Service was impeccable. Food came out fast & fresh. The atmosphere felt cozy & safe.“

“My girlfriends and I booked one of the 'Curated Chef Menus' for a bachelorette dinner recently and had an amazing experience! We had a group of 12 so I booked through their Event Manager and was given a few prix fixe menus to choose from. We went with the Red Sauce is for Lovers package - highly recommend!! The food was absolutely incredible, the portion sizes were great, and everyone left full & happy. My friends are still talking about the roasted cauliflower! And the dessert came out in the cutest little miniature espresso martini glasses. Definitely suggest going this route if you have a large group! Super seamless experience, and the service was great“

“From the moment we stepped in, everyone was attentive.. from taking our coats for us to seating us and consistently checking in with us. The food was amazing and the staff was knowledgeable about their craft and I loved that they included us in the experience by letting us get to know everyone individually. I could write a lot more, but I’ll leave it for you to experience this yourself!“

“We had a wonderful experience last night at Bearcat. We had a rare "date night" and chose to sit at the bar while electing for the chefs tasting menu. WOW. The food was incredible, the service top notch and attentive. The whole experience was refined - plating, presentation, and even little history lessons while being served - but it was never "poncy" or "snooty" - it felt like anyone could come in, have an INCREDIBLE meal, fun conversation, and become part of the Bearcat family. We'll definitely be back- the scallops dish and the pork belly dish will be menu items I dream of until we return! P S. don't sleep on the cocktails! Whether ordering from the thoughtfully designed menu or requesting something creative from the bar team's minds - you won't be disappointed!“

The hostess, wait staff, and GM all took time to wish us a happy anniversary. The food was amazing as well! Overall it was a great dining experience!“

“I found out about Southbound, through my job. I had to go do some work there, and found the owner and everyone there, super friendly. Most people at restaurants ignore working people while they are there. As my 42nd anniversary was quickly approaching, I decided to give this place a try. Some of my past picks, have not been the best. Southbound cleared EVERY hurdle I have about restaurants. From the moment we approached the restaurant, great service began! While coming thru the gate, the hostess yelled out, "HEY LARRY" and then said, "This must be your beautiful wife"! Like CHEERS, it felt great to go somewhere, "Where everybody knows your name" We were seated and got to view the open fire oven. I had dropped off 42 roses the week before for them to put on our table, for my wife. Tropical storm Debbie, and downtown flooding prevented us from going exactly on our anniversary. I was worried that store bought roses, would not last thru the weeklong delay, Joel assured me everything would be taken care of, and not to worry. As we were seated, there on the table, sat 42 roses. Fresh, and arranged with baby breath flowers included. I was told the young lady with the hostess had arranged them. They were gorgeous! They also had an anniversary card on the table from them, not something I had dropped off. The service was tremendous, the food indescribably outstanding! I have only had steak Tar Tar once before in my life, and was greatly afraid to try it again, as the first time was awful. It was superb! They take great pride in the presentation of their food products. I felt like I was in an episode of Master Chef. We had the steak, as well as the Sea bass, okra, corn, sweet potatoes, and the Caramel cake. Everything absolutely wonderful! This was a truly wonderful and memorable dining experience!! I would give 100 stars, and a Siskel and Ebert two thumbs up! There was only one thing I was disappointed about. No sweet tea! Were In Charleston SC, no sweet tea. Everything else totally made up for it though. The staff even had everyone present sign a menu, wishing us a happy anniversry1 I will most definatly go there again for a special occasion. Thanks to Andrew, Joel, and the entire staff, for making this night special!!“

“The food was amazing!! Definitely will be back!! Customer service was great. And the food!! Omg!“

“I am not one of those people who post my daily activity or what food I'm eating or rate the places I eat..until now.. I'm from New York so I've had my share of diner muffins.. I go out to breakfast 7 days a week x 365 days a year .. have had my morning meal in several South Carolina establishments..you get the picture. Sunrise Bistro recently hired a a baker, Maddy. I have had a blueberry, lemon, cranberry/orange and nutella/raspberry muffin..I can say without hesitation these are by far the best muffins I have ever had. Maddy is even going to indulge me with a bran muffin. THANK YOU SUNRISE BISTRO .. THANK YOU MADDY!!“

“Had the steak & cheese eggrolls, pulled pork nachos and pineapple passionfruit marg. All so good! Would def come back and recommend to others! 😁“

“Great little cocktail bar. Wide variety of drinks. Very intimate feel for friends or a date. I had a passion fruit Paloma which was good but a tad in the sweet side. The bartenders aren’t super chatty but they’re also super busy making drinks due to the variety. Would definitely come back to try more on the menu!“

“My daughter and I had an amazing dinner last night! Our view was perfect and our server, John was honestly one of the very best servers we’ve ever had anywhere! I highly recommend this top notch restaurant. Request John if you want to be treated like royalty! We will be back for sure!“

“the food and the staff are all amazing! thoroughly enjoyed it!!“

“Ella at the Thoroughbred Club was just lovely! She communicated clearly and kindly, making me feel welcome right from the start. Her attentiveness and warm demeanor truly enhanced my experience. I felt well taken care of the entire time. I genuinely enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend“

“You have found the gluten-free MECCA! Their entire menu is gluten free except a couple options, their fryers NEVER touch gluten, and the food is amazing. I don't mean good for being gluten-free - I mean incredible food all-around. We got the she crab soup, fried haddock sandwich, and shrimp and lobster pasta and it was all better than I can describe. I'm coming back tomorrow!“

“An entertaining chef, creative and exceptionally well-executed cuisine, a pleasingly funky ambience, and the delight at watching a fine chef at work, which equals a terrific experience.“

“Oak has a great reputation for Charleston's best steaks and sides, atmosphere and service. Dining in the heart of downtown Charleston is the crowning gem! Hands down, Charleston's best!“

“Had a great experience and stay… we enjoyed our time at the pool bar. Bartenders were very engaging and friendly.. great group and they make great drinks. Cozy and quaint.. just wish they played music around pool and not just on the bar side.“
