Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Isle of Palms

"FIG takes "locally sourced" and "farm-to-table" to an all-new level, using local ingredients at their peak and preparing them minimally to capture the flavor of the season. This laidback bistro’s simple approach is felt in the ambiance with its unpretentious "neighborhood café" vibe."

"It’s a big deal when a chef wins a James Beard Award for “Best Chef: Southeast.” It’s an even bigger deal when that chef’s successor wins the same award a few years later, but that’s exactly what happened at..."

"The name of this restaurant is a bit contradictory to the vegan lifestyle. However, it has a number of delicious vegan-friendly items. Located on Upper King in downtown, this Charleston restaurant is the second branch of this brand."

"Healthy and light but always satisfying, this local favorite has grown into new digs and expanded its lunch and dinner menus. The seasonal menu...Read More"

"A longtime favorite of Charleston diners, Edmund’s Oast is offering some of its most popular dishes to-go, like the until-recently-retired pickled shrimp toast, which is basically what summer in Charleston tastes like. Add on dessert and a bottle of wine for just $20 more, with free delivery via Uber Eats and Grubhub. There’s also a weekday Family Meal special that is enough for “three groups of three” and features 16-piece fried chicken, six sides, two pieces of pie, two 32-oz house beers, and two bottles of wine."

"Edmund’s Oast, located on Morrison Drive, has been a favorite mingling spot for locals since its opening. The tap list runs almost three dozen deep, always with several of EO's original works, which tend to be a mix of American and British styles (their brown ale is a crowd favorite). On the food side, don't expect greasy, typical pub stuff: Edmund’s takes the food just as seriously as the beer, with a highly rated charcuterie program (nearly everything is cured and made in house)."

"Happy hours are serious business in Charleston, and many spots offer oyster- and other food-focused deals. Situated up Meeting Street in an area locals call NoMo ("North of Morrison"), Edmund’s Oast remains a top pick for one of Charleston’s most-diverse and tasty happy hours. It features an ever-changing short list of snacks, cocktails, wine, cider and craft beers available at their bars for just four bucks each from 4:30 p.m."

"This restaurant's name might be the only underwhelming thing about it. Classic white tiling and rounded windows (not to mention the 22-foot-high ceilings) make for a dynamic backdrop for chef Mike Lata's high-concept oyster hall, where oysters, clams, lobster, and jumbo lump blue crab are whisked right off the raw bar and onto diners' tables, while other dishes, like the signature smoked oysters and yellowfin tuna with house-made potato chips, get just a light touch before they make their way to patrons. If the raw goods don't do it for you, not to worry: warmer choices include New Orleans-style barbecued shrimp and fish head gumbo."

"Located where Cannon ends on King Street, the Ordinary is inside of a 1920s bank. As such, the acoustics aren’t spectacular with so many hard surfaces and high ceilings, but it makes a hip space with such an expansive space with high ceilings, big windows, and a wide bar. This is a great choice for seafood restaurants in downtown Charleston, the oysters at the Ordinary cannot be beat."

"Everything is chic and fancy reminiscent of the Roaring Twenties. The place screams vintage—from the decors to the bistro tables to the plates to the cutlery. Dine at the sparkly mezzanine that overlooks the entire space."

"Savor old-school-style, service, and flavor at this upscale, beloved institution on Upper King. Grab a stool at the bustling bar, or head upstairs for a more intimate dining experience. Either way, indulge in the lump crab cakes, blue cheese wedge salad, and chef Matthew Niessner’s melt-in-your-mouth prime steaks—sauces available but not needed."

"While this is a large splurge meal, it is 100% worth every penny. The food is second-to-none and the service is the best you’ll find. When visiting Hall’s the top recommendation is of course a steak."

"A family owned restaurant valuing hospitality & a dining experience that guests revere. Dinner is served 7 nights a week and a Gospel Brunch on Sundays, all with live music."

"From food truck to brick-and-mortar beauty, Semilla now sits in the former Lee Lee's Hot Kitchen. The newly pink interior awaits with creative tacos, rice bowls, and decadent snacks. Try the creamy sweet corn farro--a hearty, inventive Southern-style street corn, with Anson Mills grains, charred corn, cotija, and Benton's country ham."

"As early as 8am and as late as 0am, there are places open that offer Ice Cream And Frozen Yogurt delivery. Enter your delivery address to see what’s available in your area."

"Another respected producer of its own pasta, Lucca swears by semolina flour for every shape it makes, including a spaghettoni prettily blackened by squid ink. While the terrific house-made charcuterie isn’t the ideal choice for an athlete trying to keep his or her hydration levels high, the cozy dining room, situated on a quiet corner of a neighborhood that’s still more residential than restaurant, is easy to enjoy, regardless of what’s ordered. 41-A Bogard St., 843-973-3323, luccacharleston.com"

"Chef Ken Vedrinksi, also chef at Coda Del Pesce on Isle of Palms, knows exactly what he's doing when preparing Italian food. We're just thankful he's chosen to bring is talents for authentic Italian to the city of Charleston, serving world-class pasta dishes from a Bogard Street corner at Trattoria Lucca. This casual, comfortable, and semi-subdued restaurant is warm and cozy inside, and the smells alone are enough to sell you on a long night of taste-testing."

"This unassuming building in a quiet, mostly residential neighborhood is serving up some of Charleston's best Italian. Trattoria Lucca, which opened up in 2008, is known for its pasta, made fresh in house daily. The restaurant's chef and owner, Ken..."

"Many great plantations are available for visiting in Charleston. Middleton Place should be near the top of your list if you want to see multiple ones. This is a gorgeous complex that showcases the unquestionable southern beauty of the city."

"Established in the 1730s, Middleton Place was at the center of the Middleton family’s empire of rice plantations, which consisted of…"

"The Sunflower Café is a charming family-owned and operated café that serves breakfast and lunch in a warm and welcoming environment. Popular with locals and visitors alike, the little restaurant is packed for breakfast, which boasts offerings such as eggs, bacon, sausages and grits, stacks of pancakes with maple syrup, sweet pecan waffles, French toast, and eggs Benedict. There are also Southern-style dishes such as crab and fried green tomatoes and shrimp and grits on offer, along with a range of fruit juices, freshly brewed coffee, tea, and hot chocolate."

"I waited for 10 minutes to get my drink and once they realized I didn’t have my drink they gave me a tall lemonade instead..."

"Formerly known as Black Tap Coffee, Second State Coffee is a sunlight-filled caffeine emporium with minimalist-chic décor, communal tables, window-bar seating, and a sleek, sophisticated atmosphere. The café is a popular gathering spot for creatives, digital nomads, and hipsters who sip innovative lattes – think lavender and brown sugar options – and out-of-this-world pour-over brews. In addition to regular coffee and tea, there are also specialty drinks, cold beers and light snacks available, which can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, daily."

"This coffee bar serves great pour-over coffee, has a lovely selection of teas, and makes incredible cold brew that customers can buy by the glass or by the growler. A clean, serene environment for a work session or chat with friends."

"A favorite for creatives, this off-the-beaten-path, minimalist coffee shop is situated in the Harleston Village neighborhood of Charleston. Order the Brown Sugar latte and thank us later."

"Just as we are committed to serving the best quality food every single day, we are committed to serving you during this time. Whether it’s via dine-in, the drive-thru or delivery where available, we remain focused on having your back."
