Best Steakhouses in Johns Island

The first thing that impressed us was the friendly and welcoming Staff. They greeted us and made us feel at home as soon as we entered the establishment. The ambiance is cozy, tasteful and comfortable: brick walls, plush leather, elegant table settings, fireplaces and dim lighting. We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday and were delighted when presented menus printed with “Happy Birthday” and the milestone age superimposed on them. They even said we could take them home as a souvenir. Such a thoughtful touch! Our waiter, Sam, couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. He was very friendly, informative and professional. He was also a great source of information on the menu and offered wonderful suggestions. He made us feel very special. The food was to die for! Everything we ordered was beautifully presented, cooked perfectly and amazingly delicious. The chef and kitchen staff are to be commended. The drinks were generous and made to perfection, as well. Mike does a great job of managing the place. He made sure we were satisfied with our experience and took the time to chat with us for a bit. All in all, we had a wonderful evening and highly recommend Oak Steakhouse.

They were a little short staffed and short on menus, but our server was very sweet and attentive. Great dirty martini. The BBQ shrimp appetizer and scallops were to die for, but the cut on the steak for steak frites was a little tough.

Jimmy our waiter made a bold boast, that his is the best restaurant in Charlestown! He may be right, its certainly one of the best we have visited. The service and food were outstanding, and the restaurant was comfortable. The only annoyance is that after I reserved, they emailed, texted and then called like every day to make sure we were coming, this after taking a credit card and threatening to charge me if we didn't show up. I'm pretty busy and I could have used without that bit of aggravation leading up to the visit.

This was my first time visiting Charleston, SC, and I’m a foodie by trade! When I was tasked to find a good steakhouse near the water for a reasonable price, I found Burwell’s Stone Fire Grill. According to the locals, this was the place to go. So I booked my group reservation and let it ride. We arrived shortly before our scheduled time, and was greeted by friendly staff and shown to our table. Our server was awesome. Miley was her name. She knew the menu, was happy and upbeat, and made some great recommendations. We did shots of bourbon for the table - great choice! When it was time to order, I decided to go with the deviled eggs as an appetizer, and the Signature Hot Rock Duo of Filet and Wagyu. It was all amazing. Fast forward to the dessert menu, and what do you know - more great choices to pick from. So we each ordered a separate item from the dessert list and shared around the table. All in all, this place is a gem. Burwell’s certainly deserves a 5 star rating. This is going to be a favorite place to visit when I return to the Charleston area.

Great place! Meats were well seasoned and cooked to perfection!!! Should have gone earlier in the day so that we could have experienced all the different options. Will definitely go again!
