Best Contemporary American Restaurants in North Charleston

Wonderful experience. Great Service. Phenomenal food. Creative drinks. We will be back.

Sat at the bar for apps and cocktails. Both were great and the bartender Nathan was outstanding. Super friendly and outgoing and knew the drink menu inside and out.

Our experience at Tempest was spectacular! My wife & I were celebrating our honeymoon & they surprised us with a bottle of Prosecco, which made our day!! We participated in their restaurant week & the food was overwhelmingly delicious. Great portion sizes, & great flavor. The ambiance was also striking. The stained glass mural on the ceiling had us mesmerized. All that to be said, the star of the show was the service. Our waiter was attentive and a pleasure, we also had an intentional conversation with the GM, as well as a mini photo shoot with the hostess. Such a great time, couldn’t recommend more.

Menu items and restaurant week offerings were varied and appealing. Service was prompt and attentive. Brussels sprouts were tasty but a little heavy on the bacon and cheese. Salmon entrée was good, and meatball appetizer tasty albeit a bit overly sauced. Dessert Blondie was a delicious highlight and carrot cake was pretty good, but mild.

We were celebrating our very young acting friend who does the gym for two hours M-F who was celebrating her 90th birthday! Our Queen of Everything, Myrtice charms everyone she meets with her high energy. The management graciously compted her meal and gave her a dessert. She was thrilled and we agreed to come back someday soon for breakfast since her workout time is 5-7! Thank you for your kindness to all of us, especially making Myrtice feel extra special!
