Best Comfort Food Restaurants in James Island

Rudy Royale in Charleston is an absolute delight for anyone seeking bold flavors and a welcoming atmosphere. The star of the show is undoubtedly the chicken sandwich – perfectly crispy, juicy, and packed with unforgettable flavor. It’s hands down the best chicken sandwich in town! The sides deserve a standing ovation as well. The Brussels sprouts, tossed in their magical sauce, are a flavor explosion that will have you scraping the plate. The garlic potatoes with the crispy edges are rich, and comforting – a must-order. And then there’s the mac and cheese: ooey, gooey, and everything you want in this classic comfort dish. Truly, you’ll regret skipping it. We started with the deviled eggs, a perfectly executed classic that set the tone for the meal. As for dessert, we tried the banana pudding. While it was good, it didn’t quite live up to the hype compared to the rest of the menu, but it was a sweet way to end the meal nonetheless. Rudy Royale is a culinary treasure in Charleston, with standout dishes that will have you coming back for more. Don’t miss it!

Had a wonderful brunch at Virginia on King. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding from the manager to our waitress! Thank you all for an enjoyable morning! Merry Christmas🎄

If you’re looking for cozy and comfortable, friendly and fun this is the place! All ages, 68/70 here, parents with a 6 yo, couples. Wide range of wine flights, great Old Fashioneds, wonderful desserts and dessert wines. Nice menu…not 5 Star dining but good choices. Not “bar food”! Chef is great for accommodating specific dietary needs. Thanks Brandon for your great service! We always put Well Hung on our list when we visit Charleston.
