Best Southern American Restaurants in North Charleston

One of the best meals we’ve ever had. We arrived very early, and were greeted kindly and seated right away. Our waiter was excellent. The food was perfectly done, and was outstanding. We would come back in a heartbeat! Special mention to the crab soup, the filet mignon and the crème brûlée, but everything was great.

We took a quick trip to Charleston and booked here for my birthday dinner and it was 10/10. Darnell was our server and he was outstanding; funny, welcoming, kind, and personable. The food was delicious and the place is adorable. Cannot recommend enough!!

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!

We had a wonderful lunch with friends on Christmas Eve!

Get the shrimp and grits- wonderful. My husband had the fish of the day over a ragu and he said it was very good. I didn’t like the fried green tomatoes. service was very nice . The restaurant had a large family with young children which was annoying but not the restaurants fault,
