“Enjoyable evening sipping wine and sharing various tapas options. Arrived during happy hour which of course offers some specials including $8 glasses of some very nice wine.
Tried a few offerings such as tinned sardines, grilled octopus and a very generous sharable arugula salad. The hilight was certainly the jamon inberico (Spanish ham) sliced and served as it is in Madrid. Melt in your mouth delicious! Cool vibe ! Stop in for a glass of wine or a few small bites. Relaxing setting. They do not take reservations, open for late night munchies!“

“Love the wine and charcuterie board’s“

“food is juicy 😋 you have to try.“

“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.“

“Amazing service and delicious FRESH made to order food! Come here for delicious Thai food. My 8 year old nephew devoured his Pho soup and I devoured my Pad Sewee!“

“Firefly is such a staple of North Charleston. We have been to so many events here and it’s always a stop when showing tourists around Charleston. We have done the tasting more times than I can count and always learn something new! The staff is great, the concerts are awesome, definitely check them out if you are in the area!“

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

“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.“

“Best authentic food truck!“

“Everything. Great food and service.“

“The first time I tried Jamaican food, the food itself was quite good. The chicken was exceptionally smooth and flavorful. However, the restaurant is located in a very sketchy area, and there’s no air conditioning inside. Take out would be ideal“

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

“Fern, the owner was so amazing, kind and generous. The food was absolutely delicious on every level…savory, sweet, spicy - BURSTING with flavor. Go there today, you won’t regret it. Thanks Fern!“

“While visiting Charleston for a graduation celebration, we stumbled into Rusty Bull Brewing and let me just say—thank the foodie gods we did. I ordered the 3005 Burger, and y’all… I was not prepared. This wasn’t just a burger. This was an experience. Juicy, flavorful, perfectly seasoned beef stacked with all the right fixings—it was messy in the best way and cooked to absolute perfection. Every bite was a harmony of smoky, savory, and slightly sweet bliss. But what really put this meal over the top was the mastermind behind the grill—Wax. Whoever this wizard is, give him a raise, a trophy, and maybe his own Food Network show. You could tell this burger was made with love, intention, and serious culinary skill. We came for a celebration, but we left talking about that burger. Honestly, if you’re in Charleston and don’t stop by Rusty Bull Brewing for the 3005 Burger, you’re doing it wrong. Wax, you earned a fan for life.“

“The service was good. Our server, John, did a nice job. I had the veal Marsala and Val had the Chicken Marsala. I had the calamari which was typical unfortunately. Overall, we did enjoy ourselves and would recommend this restaurant. Judge for yourself!“

“Willie Jewell‘s BarBQ on University Boulevard is our go-to place for barbecue! We love dining in or getting carry-out. All the meats are excellent AND the sides are flavorful and quite varied, including daily special sides. The portions are generous and one of my favorite things about dining in is that all the sauces are WARM and available in a large pump dispenser. It’s always sad to me to put cold sauce on warm meat … that never happens at Willie Jewell‘s BarBQ on University Boulevard! The restaurant has an old-fashioned and lighthearted atmosphere and the staff are pleasant and efficient.“

“Excelente servicio y la comida deliciosa 😋“

“Awesome hangout to be with great Food & TASTY Beer 🍺 😋 highly recommended“

“I truly enjoyed my experience at CiCi's Pizza tonight, June 26th 2026. The manager or shift lead was amazing. It was an hour before closing and I requested barbecue Pizza. She asked if I wanted chicken or pork? I replied idk.🤔. She said, I'll make both. The BBQ sauce is nice, I ended up putting the bbq chicken (thicker crust) toppings on top of my BBQ pork (thinner crust, I'm not here for the extra carbs)“

“First but not last visit. Valerie was our server and everything was just awesome. I had the yummy chilly chips and buffalo chicken dip. My buddy had the French dip. It was all awesome. The fries are spot on too with their special seasoning. Highly recommend!“

“Great food. Fast Service.“

“Lumpia's so good I had them two days in a row! Do yourself a favor and get two orders.“

“Lunch at the Charleston location on 17 was off the hook good! Go get some.“

“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 was delicious I would definitely go back.“

“Lo-Fi Brewing is always such a fun and unique place to perform! The laid-back vibe, great crowd, and welcoming atmosphere make every showcase a blast. We love playing here and can’t wait for the next one!“

“When I first arrived, I used the bathroom. It was near, and everything worked. It also looked clean. I think if the toilet looked a little nicer, it would be perfect. It was fine for a restaurant.

Unfortunately, the air conditioner was on the fritz, so it was warm when it was 93 degrees outside in North Charleston, SC. The service was excellent, keeping the water and soda filled because I drank a lot due to the heat. The amount of food served was much more than I expected for my Cobb salad.

The place was quiet enough to talk in a normal voice because many people left quickly, but I was catching up with a friend, and we hung out. The staff appreciated that we stayed so long.

I like this place for eating alone or with a group. I would not recommend it for a noisy birthday party. But if a family wanted to celebrate a birthday, or a small business lunch would be fine.“

“Great service from Destiny! She noticed us looking around because we had t yet been waited on. She came over introduced herself and made our dinner experience a pleasure. My out of town visitor had a really good experience and meal. We really appreciated her pleasent positive attitude. The food was really good we will return.“

“Delicious food, large portions and more than reasonable prices with excellent customer service!! The Seafood Platter is Delicious!!“

“Tacos were amazing!! Chorizo dip was amazing! Salsa was some of the best I’ve ever had! Margaritas were also great! Staff were friendly and patient! Super clean! 10/10 recommend!“

“Friendly staff and it’s always delicious 😋“

“Fantastic pho, a variety of noodles, and other Asian dishes. Small shop with a relatively wide variety of options available. Dishes were served with a side of fresh spices and garnishes to fix the meal to your taste.

Ordered the duck and beef pho. Broth was high quality and rich in both dishes, portions were very good. The beef in particular, was very tender.

I saw some reviews claiming that the service was slow. I admit that the waitress was distracted, talking on the phone through her earbuds, which resulted in a wrong drink order. That said, I started a stop watch once our order was in and the food arrived in less than 7 minutes.

Bonus: if you are a restaurant owner, this place has a ton of kitchen accoutrement / utensils for commercial use. Moreover if you just like cooking Asian dishes at home, the supermarket that houses the restaurant haas all manner of noodles, rices, spices, and other staples of the varied Asian diet.“

“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.“

“This little hidden gem is so good. The tacos taste fresh as well as the meat used in my caldo de res ( beef soup). Only thing I would change is using fresh veggies instead of frozen. The enchiladas Verdes are really good but if you cant stand the heat get out the kitchen.“

“LOVE Verde’s catering in Columbia! I’ve used them countless times. Always fresh, beautiful, on time, and fits my budget for the number of guests. Jeni is great to work with!“

“Stein is a great bartender!!“

“Went here while staying in North Charleston. Danger-hiked as a white guy from the hotel against the advice of the hotel staff. Just the usual beggars asking for stuff along the way.
Got to the restaurant, found the correct door to enter, then stood there being ignored for about two minutes. Finally asked in Spanish if they were open and if so, could I get a table? They magically noticed I existed. Once seated I asked if they had any beer? The young lady replied that all they had was teas. So I ordered a Tamarind Tea which came out in a half pitcher with a straw. Tasted interesting. When I asked for a menu she said they didn’t have one. At this point I’m committed since I was lucky not to get robbed walking there and I still had to get back home so might as well get something for my potential last meal. I asked what they had to offer and she said she’d be right back. Up walks an Abuela with an apron that tells me they have Tlayudas y Tortas that night. So I ordered one of each. The food came out in about 15 minutes and it was delicious. When I got done I went to pay and she rang me up for $20 for the whole experience. I tried to tip her but she got nervous and looked around and then told me not to tip. By now it’s dark along Ashley Phosphate road and I’m walking back to the Residence Inn as a lone white dude. Don’t do that unless you are adventurous or looking for a reason to fight. Made it back to my hotel and noticed I felt funny. Turns out that tamarind tea had to have some cannabis in there somewhere because I was high af like I took a 10mg edible and it wasn’t just the euphoria of surviving a late night stroll through little Mexico. It was easily the most entertaining part of my two weeks in Charleston. 10/10 would recommend, but seriously, if you don’t speak Spanish and are one of those people that expect… literally anything that people complain about in these reviews, just go eat at a Taco Bell or something.“
