Listing Directory: General

  • Kwei Fei

    Kwei Fei

    In the restaurant adjoining the Charleston Pour House, chef David Schuttenberg brings the heat with his homage to the flavors of Sichuan. That means bold noodle bowls plus small plates that turn the spice up loud on everything from tender lamb dumplings to dry-rubbed chicken wings to an ice cream sundae drizzled with chile oil.

  • Malika Canteen

    Chef-owner Maryam Ghaznavi offers a blend of Pakistani and northern Indian street food alongside more formal large plates at the Lowcountry’s only Pakistani restaurant. Traditional curries and kebabs are served side by side with East/West fusions like beef or lamb in paratha wraps and masala poutine—seasoned fries smothered in gooey cheese curds and savory tomato…

  • La Tela Pizzeria

    This casual, family-friendly operation in Freshfields Village is a favorite for atmosphere and food. Come for specialty pizzas, pastas, and mozzarella—all made in-house—or try a butternut squash salad. The kitchen works with local farmers to provide seasonal and traditional Italian dishes.

  • Marina Variety Store

    A killer view of the Ashley River and hit-the-spot breakfasts, lunches, and fresh seafood dinners (featuring satisfying shrimp platters, fried clam strips, and fresh crab dip) make this beach-town joint—founded some 50 years ago—a favorite among boaters, visitors, and business folks alike.

  • Langdon’s

    Langdon’s

    This Mount Pleasant fine-dining institution from chef-owner Patrick Owens thrills the palate with food that is simple yet exquisitely prepared. Start with the goat cheese gnocchi with prosciutto, roasted tomatoes, spinach, and basil, then move on to an entrée such as the bone-in Berkshire pork chop, rack of lamb, or Hawaiian tuna.

  • Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint

    You could fill up on pit standards like the brisket, pulled pork, or turkey at this barbecue outpost from West Tennessee. But don’t miss the outliers, like the fried catfish “Redneck Taco” served on a hoecake, smothered in slaw. The hickory baked beans are just one of many stellar sides.

  • Le Farfalle

    Michael Toscano’s Italian osteria offers up memorable meals with standout dishes from start (pork meatballs or calamari fritti) to finish (tiramisu). His excellent house-made pasta—the spaghetti alla puttanesca is heavenly—makes for an outstanding secondi, so save room. Even the warm rosemary focaccia with whipped ricotta is a delight.

  • Maya Del Sol Kitchen

    Three days a week, chef Raul Sanchez’s lunch service features tacos, burritos, and tortas at a simple diner-style counter. At night, that counter is transformed into a chef’s table for a fixed price, five-course dinner with a creative array of Mexican-themed plates that blend comfort food and fine dining, like pot roast with mole.

  • Lenoir

    Lenoir

    Vivian Howard’s eatery may be located in the Renaissance Hotel and named for her North Carolina home county, but it feels like a neighborhood spot. Patty melts, cornmeal-dusted catfish, and sticky-sweet blueberry barbecue wings grace the menu; and the cocktail list is fresh and fruit-forward—try the blood orange and mezcal “Above Your Raisin.”

  • Meeting at Market

    Charleston Place may not have previously come to mind when choosing a spot to grab beers, upscale pub snacks, burgers, or even a Cobb salad while watching the game, but that changed with Meeting at Market, a highbrow sports bar overlooking the City Market.
