“If you’re visiting North Charleston this is a spot you absolutely cannot miss. We needed a place to get a quick lunch before our massages & we decided on this place. We were seated immediately by the sweetest woman who ended up taking care of us during our hour dining with them. My husband ordered a blonde lager on tap, which he had said was the best beer he had received during our time here. My husband ordered the shrimp/crawfish po’boy which he stated was delicious and packed with every bite & I ordered a shrimp basket which threw just about every shrimp basket I’ve ever had out of the park. The pecan cornbread that comes with the basket is honestly a desert in itself, and I think if it asked me to marry it I just might’ve. We got the beignets for desert, & as someone that’s been to NOLA these are the closest ones I’ve had to beignets in NOLA. Smaller in size but fluffy perfection after a large lunch! The woman who took care of us was definitely our favorite part about this place, I only wish we had remembered her name but we will most certainly be back just to look for her again. If you ever want to be greeted & treated like family this is the place to go.”

“Stopped in here for a seafood boil which was really fun. They provide gloves, bibs, and hand wipes which made the experience more enjoyable. The potato and the corn actually surprised us with how delicious they were in the seasoning/sauce. The seafood was good, but we didn't feel it was super fresh. However, the food and experience were great overall and would definitely recommend if looking for a seafood boil restaurant.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at a Mexican restaurant that truly offers authentic cuisine, and I must say, it was a remarkable experience. I started with the Tlayudas, which were incredibly delicious and a delightful departure from the ordinary; they are quite large, reminiscent of a pizza. Additionally, I ordered the charola de marisco, which was nothing short of amazing, featuring a variety of seafood that was 100% delicious. The service was exceptional as well; the waitress was not only attentive but also very friendly. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for genuine Mexican food in Charleston.”

“I ate an early dinner 10/3rd at 5:00pm. My server, Wendy, was excellent! She was attentive without hovering. I was torn between three choices and she helped me decide which of the three I should eat. The dish was excellent and just the right choice for me. I thought the caesar salad was fresh and delicious but had too much dressing for me. I would order it on the side next time. If you visit this restaurant, ask to be seated in Wendy's section!”

20 Cold Flame Restaurant & Bar

2810 Ashley Phosphate Road Ste A1, North Charleston

“This place has awesome food. I was in Charleston for a month for work and found this gem right near the hotel. I travel the country for work and let me tell you, for sports bar type food, this place is one of the best I have had. I ate here at least six times, each time consistently excellent. I've tried wings (buffalo is my favorite but they have a lot of flavors), their cheese steak uses a real Amaroso roll and was very good, their fries have that crispy coating to them, and their rice bowls are very good as well. Give Cold Flame a try!”

“Appreciated the convenience of walking distance to the performance venues. Atmosphere was a bit lacking and rather loud. Varied menu with ample selections, fair prices, appealing plating, and decent portions. Chicken was a bit tough and would've sent it back but traded with another at our table. Also, surprised that no coffee or hot tea options were available. We'd definitely return though.”

Food was ready upon arrival, and though NOT on their menu, this restaurant was the FIRST to accept the challenge to make Rosa Parks pancakes in honor of her birthday February 4th. Best Friends of Lowcountry Transit appreciate the support for Transit Equity Day, we have signed 47 people up on our Facebook page for the event, a nail salon has agreed to display your posters, and the food was delicious!!

“Overall, the food was good. The gizzards stole the show for me. Fried to perfection and very tasty. The whiting fish was fried very well but could've used a tad bit more seafood seasoning. The oysters were tasty but I'll have to request for them to be lightly breaded, tho. I will visit them again. The customer service was outstanding.”

“This was my first visit to the Columbia location. I initially purchased a few dozen crabs, and they were all good. The young lady from the North Charleston location was also there, and she was very friendly and pleasant. Because of that experience, I decided to return later to purchase a bushel. Unfortunately, the experience was very different. The staff that day were not friendly, and about half of the bushel consisted of light, empty crabs. After that experience, I don’t think I will purchase another bushel of crabs from this location. I will say that the other seafood looked fresh. I personally did not care for the seafood salad. Overall, my first experience was good, but the second visit was disappointing, especially considering the quality of the crabs I received.”

Ive only been to Charleston twice, but after the 1st time I couldn't stop thinking about this sammich. Just had it again and once more: 10/10. Friends eating other menu items here were less enthusiastic, but everyone loved this po boy. Fries were good too.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at what I believe to be the best authentic Mexican restaurant in Charleston! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by our waitress Jovita, who deserves special mention for her exceptional service. She was incredibly kind and friendly, especially towards my children, making our dining experience all the more enjoyable. Jovita checked on us regularly, ensuring that everything was perfect, which made us feel truly valued as guests. Now, let’s talk about the food! It was nothing short of amazing—each dish was bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. You can tell there’s a lot of love put into the cooking. I also want to highlight the recent updates to the building. The ambiance is inviting and revitalized, making it a pleasure to dine there. Overall, our experience was fantastic, and I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving authentic Mexican cuisine. Thank you, Jovita, for making our visit so memorable! We can't wait to return!”
