“Park Pizza Co is a fantastic pizza place!! The pizza is hot and made with fresh ingredients. The dough is delicious. I ordered on a Friday night, and it was ready within 20mins. Please take note that you have to either order it to go or sit outside on the patio. If you are in the Park Circle area, I highly recommend Park Pizza Co!!”

“Family friendly Mexican restaurant. Meal portions were generous for the price. Salsa and chips were served as we waiting for our meals. I enjoyed the fact that the meals were deliver hot to warm when they arrived to the table. Waiting for meals was about average because we had a a party of over five. The scenery was ok. They do have a bar that serves liquor. It’s located is a trendy restaurant area that is great for strolling. Parking is available.”

He recommended we get the Crab rice, tuna tartar, and spicy shrimp. And recommended local beer. He even had a special treat for us at the end of our meal. Hands down worth it!! Thank you Daniel!!♡♡”

4 Cannon St, Charleston, SC 29403, United States

“Stopped into The Grocery and I was impressed. This restaurant was not on my radar and a server from another restaurant recommended it to us. It was really good and they focus on a quality first. Everything we order was a palate pleaser. I have to say they have the best steak tartare in all Charleston and the Wood Roasted Peaches where excellent. Also loved the Bistro Steak.”

“Celebrated my husband's birthday with our two little ones (4 and 7) and it was absolutely fantastic! Our server was amazing – so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We kicked off with raw oysters, French onion soup, and crab soup, all delicious and filling. The kids loved the oysters and crab soup. Our filets were cooked to perfection, hands down the best steaks we've ever had, and the sides, especially the creamed spinach, were equally delightful. Portions were generous, leaving us with enough leftovers for another great meal. We've been raving to everyone about this spot in Charleston!”

“Honest review: Was recommended to come and try this place out by a local. It was a pleasant surprise, food was fresh, well seasoned, and plentiful. Seating is outside only, so we was lucky enough to come when it was perfect temperature. The lemonade was great, and all treats was very delicious looking. I think they had local beer too, unfortunately I didn’t get to try it. (Had to drive and it was midday) Only food that was just ok was the rice puddin. Would I come back….. ohh yeah!! If you like honest reviews please it the like and or follow button. Have a great day!!!!”

“We went here to casually celebrate a friend’s birthday dinner. Everything from the atmosphere to the food was exceptional. Great selection of apps and local beers. Most of us ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala for our main course. Although I’ve only had Indian food a few times now, this was my favorite dish I’ve had in the Charleston area. The service was friendly and attentive.”

Staff who took call for take out was super nice, everyone inside on pickup were great as well. Food was all amazing, had the pizza, garlic knots, wings, fried goat cheese and cheese cake, all 5 stars. Will be making this our pizza stop from now on. Highly recommend”

73 Spring St, Charleston, SC 29403, United States

“Amazing, amazing, amazing. This place has the BEST cinnamon rolls and sticky buns in South Carolina. They make them hot and fresh daily. To save time, call the day before and get a to-go order. Try the pimento cheese quiche as well for a surprising and filling treat. Come early or prepare to wait as the line begins forming 15 minutes before they open the doors. So worth it!”

“Boy I got these in November 2023 from the Cafe at Grand Bohemian in Charleston. I just add a little milk and follow the other instructions. I use them to make my own Sausage, grits and hand mashed avocado break fast patty. Heavenly Londie is what I call it and so do my house guests.”

547 Freshfields Dr, Kiawah Island, SC 29455, United States

“We closed on our condo in August 2023 and are still trying out all the amazing restaurants Seabrook & Kiawah have to offer. This restaurant greatly exceeded our expectations. The entire atmosphere is a special experience by itself, then add in the incredible food & wine and you’ve got *chefs kiss 💋 *. I can’t decide which was best: The wine bar or the Warm Crab & Artichoke dip or the Scallops. Probably one of the best experiences we’ve had on Kiawah. Highly recommend. The staff is amazing. The food is amazing. Everything. 10/10 ♥️”

“You can expect ice cream and candy shops like these to be a bit pricey but I think you’re paying for the food as well as for the great location. You can eat your ice cream and walk it off lol. My daughter had the cotton Candy ice cream, we also got an Oreo caramel apple (omgggggg sooooo good!) and then 4 large pieces of fudge to take home.”

145 Calhoun St UNIT 301, Charleston, SC 29401, United States

“Fantastic food! Wish they did bottomless brunch drinks but the pitcher did the trick! We each ordered an entrée and then planned on getting dessert. However, we saw the shrimp avocado toast come out and decided to try that before dessert. It was well worth it! The cheesecake was delicious as well. Service was a little slow. however, Charleston was incredibly hot the weekend we came so I understand. The views from all of their seating areas are beautiful”

404 King St Suite 107, Charleston, SC 29403, United States

“Love their cocktails! Strong and tasty. Great for a cute small date or gossip girl meeting. Deserts are yummy! The place itself is not too big maybe 50 people could be there at max. I would give this place 5 stars but the entree food was not tasty and the price was high. He spent $160 for 2 with just one drink and some snacks. The place is located in a fancy hotel, I get it but I think it could be either the better menu or better pricing. Overall, the service was very nice and the atmosphere was amazing!!! You can spend some time there too and no one is bothering you about it — that’s a good thing. Was not too busy at a Friday night as well (surprising).”

“I just love this place. I wish they had more gluten free options in food but the drinks are spectacular. I also love the decor and the vibe. Very classy cute place to go on my favorite island. I have enjoyed both lunch and dinner there and it has been amazing. Update: we frequent here a bunch and have always enjoyed our food. I spent my birthday dinner with 12 other women here and the drinks were fantastic!”
