The Best Restaurant in Mount Pleasant, Charleston

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Although most of the region’s best-known eateries are within the city limits, you won’t have trouble finding a great meal when you’re traveling to the more far-flung destinations. Mount Pleasant, in particular, is a foodie favorite.

Locals and visitors alike tend to (mistakenly) overlook this Mount Pleasant staple in favor of the more stylish picks downtown. Chef Ben Berryhill leans on his Texas roots to formulate a South-by-Southwest approach, cooking venison sausage, double-cut pork chops, and rib-eye steaks on a wood-burning grill he calls "The Beast." Also sample savory beef empanadas or large "fork-and-knife" tacos from the bar, and head out to the outdoor patio for a beer or beverage. The nightlife here is lively.
