    Googled a breakfast place and Virginia’s on King came up first. It did not disappoint. The food was fabulous, the service attentive, and the ambiance traditional Charleston. We will be back and bring friends. Highly recommend anything that comes with grits or get them on the side. Crab cakes were delicious, full of fresh flavor. I can’t say enough about the wait staff. Attentive without being stalkerish and just down home hospitality. Thanks VoK for a wonderful experience!

    Overall exceeded expectations. Great place for a meal before Charleston Music Hall shows. Food was generous portions, fair pricing, very good quality. Nice wine list, not overpriced. Server was attentive and knowledgeable. Will be back.

    Virginia’s is a Charleston staple! Every time I’ve been the food is exactly how I remember it. The prices are amazing and you couldn’t ask for a better location.

    We love Virginias. Today the food seemed off. The deviled eggs seemed like they were frozen and not fully thawed. The gravy was cold and the pancake tasted reheated and not fresh. We have not had this experience in past visits. Maybe this is a one-off.

    A jewel on King Street. We always enjoy our meal at Virginias. Looking for the best shrimp and grits in town? You will find it here. Everyone is friendly. Ask for Ben. He is a star amongst a stellar team. Enjoy!

    Virginia's is yummy with great light, warm wood tones throughout and great service. We had sliders trio, crab Benedict, bbq pulled pork sandwich and a burger and all were great. The sweet potato fries were crisped perfectly!

    Had reservations for brunch in a few days but was looking for a casual southern place for dinner and VOK absolutely filled the desire! From the very start with the Tomato Pie appetizer we knew this was going to be good! Deviled eggs were okay but nothing special, She Crab Soup was on point! The cornbread they served with the appetizers was amazing and served as dessert as well! I had the Crispy Cod BLT with Onion Casserole on the side and my wife hade a small house salad, still quite large! Everything was delicious and plentiful! Service was excellent throughout the meal and some creative seasonal cocktails. My wife tried the Aperol Spritz with a twist of Apple Juice and Cinnamon and loved it! We both can’t wait to go back for brunch! Friendly atmosphere, a bit loud but some great music playing as well!
