If you visit Charleston, you have to come here. Absolutely delicious! The price is good.

Grilled Chicken Not So Waffle + Sweet Potato Fries+ Fried Green Tomatoes with Spicy Mayo
Marcus L.

Well-priced and delicious, Boxcar Betty's is the perfect place for a satisfying lunch. Despite the fried chicken sandwich being award winning, the grilled chicken and burgers are equally tasty. Food: 4.5/5 Price: 4.5/5 Experience: 4.5/5

Grilled chicken unbunned
Kris G.

Really good natural fries. Cut fresh and fried daily. Plump grilled chicken in salad/bowl form. I've had the fried chicken fingers before my gluten Intolerance and they are good. Nicely seasoned too. Quick service, nice staff with no frills eating place. Love that they don't use antibiotics or hormones in their chicken. Would definitely return.

Smash burger and fries, outdoor seating on a nice day
Chris N.

Super tasty smash burger and fries for lunch. Would go back again in a heartbeat. Casual/quick serve style, order at counter. Highly recommended for a pretty delicious quick lunch.

Great dinner choice. The boxcar is my favorite choice. If you wanna step it up a notch I recommend adding the bacon jam. The service is quick and staff is friendly. The restaurant it's self is very laid back and because it's in a shopping center parking is easy. There is also some outdoor seating so you can enjoy the beautiful weather.

My first time trying Box Car Betty and I was not disappointed. The Chicken was juicy and well seasoned. I will definitely be back.

Classic smash burger and fries

After completing a 100 mile bike ride for Ride the low county we were starving and decided we I try this place. The menu is self explanatory and offered great choices. The server was very helpful and allowed my hubby to try the Kentucky beer cheese spread before ordering. She had an awesome personality and was very patient. Not too many people weee dining so the service was prompt. The smash burgers were cooked to perfection and the fires were delicious. I would definitely recommend.

The Boxcar

My brother was in town for Thanksgiving and while out running errands, he wanted to stop "at that delicious chicken sandwich place we ate at last year." Boxcar hit the spot again. The philosophy of a small menu of food "done right," is genius. The chicken sandwiches with unique Southern toppings like pimiento cheese, bacon jam and peach slaw, give these sandwiches the final kick. This time I tried the chicken tenders and they were absolutely yummy: Lightly breaded and fried to perfection, moist and juicy, without being greasy. We enjoy the convenience of receiving a number to place on the table so we can sit down and talk while sipping our drinks and waiting for our food to be served to us. The atmosphere is simple and bright. The menu is displayed in large print on the wall, just before the registers. Drinks are self-service and refillable. There is outdoor patio seating as well. If you like chicken, you'll love Boxcar Betty's. And yes, they also offer smash burgers, as well as stuffed portobello mushrooms as alternative protein choices to grilled or fried chicken.

For a quick meal, it serves its purpose! We don't love fast food, and we needed a break from Chick-fil-A. The price is also reasonable!

Finding an authentic Greek restaurant in or around Charleston isn't easy! After spending time on…read moreseveral Greek islands this summer, I've become pretty particular about Greek food. Philosophia definitely passed the test! The lamb was incredibly tender, literally falling off the bone, & just as amazing the next day as leftovers! The trio of spreads tasted fresh & delicious, although I was a little disappointed the tzatziki didn't come with a Kalamata olive on top. The meatballs were amazing! I ordered a Mastiha Spritz but initially received the restaurant's limoncello version, which wasn't to my liking. When I mentioned it, the staff promptly replaced it with the traditional version I'm accustomed to. I really appreciated how they handled that! They also have an impressive selection of Greek wines. My personal favorite is Assyrtiko from Santorini, but at $130 a bottle, we opted for a different Assyrtiko instead. It was nice having several Greek wines to choose from! Overall, Philosophia was a wonderful find & definitely satisfied my craving for authentic Greek cuisine. I'll absolutely be back!

It's a cozy spot, not too large and has a chill atmosphere with nice mood lighting. I will say, the only reason for 4 stars is our server was not very attentive. We had to wave her down to get our food order in and she really did not come back to check on us once. The support staff was on it though like refilling our pita bread for our dip trio when it was getting low. Overall, great little spot in Mt. P!

KAIRO'S MEDITERRANEAN - FIVE STARS & THREE THUMBS UP!…read more I honestly cannot believe my wife and I have been coming to Kairo's Mediterranean for several years and I've never written them a proper review. So this one is LONG overdue! This has easily become one of our favorite places to eat. We probably come here twice a week, and there's a reason we keep coming back. THE FOOD IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Everything tastes incredibly fresh, authentic and flavorful, and it's one of those places where you can eat a big meal and still feel like you ate something healthy. And I have to specifically mention the tzatziki. My wife and I have traveled throughout Greece and visited several of the Greek islands, so we've had the real thing plenty of times. It can actually be surprisingly difficult to find tzatziki back home that tastes the way it does in Greece. Kairo's absolutely nails it. It's fresh, creamy, authentic and delicious. Honestly, everything we've tried here is packed with flavor. The best way I can describe walking out of Kairo's is this: You have a circus in your mouth! There are just so many different flavors going on, and somehow they all work perfectly together. GREAT PORTIONS WITHOUT CRAZY PRICES Another thing I really appreciate about Kairo's is the value. Eating out has gotten expensive just about everywhere, but you can still come here and get a fantastic meal without spending a fortune. We regularly get a huge platter with fries, drinks and tzatziki, and the value is incredible. You can easily have a great meal here for roughly $10-$12 per person, depending on what you order. They also have a surprisingly large selection of drinks, which is another nice touch. But as good as the food is, there's something even better... THE PEOPLE & THE SERVICE! For me, great service can completely change a restaurant experience, and the team at Kairo's is absolutely spectacular. They've had many of the same people working here for years, which says a lot by itself. Everyone is friendly, polite and welcoming, and you can tell the team genuinely gets along and enjoys working together. And I have to give a special shout-out to the manager, Griffin. This guy is AWESOME. He knows us by name, remembers what we order and takes care of us every single time we walk through the door. That kind of personal service is becoming harder and harder to find. Griffin and his team don't make you feel like another customer walking through the line -- they make you feel like family. The restaurant is also always immaculate. Every time we're there, somebody is cleaning, wiping things down or making sure everything looks right. The whole place is consistently spotless. After several years and probably more meals here than I could possibly count, Kairo's continues to deliver every single time. Authentic Mediterranean flavors Fresh, delicious food Fantastic tzatziki Huge portions Excellent prices Tons of drink choices Spotlessly clean Incredible staff Outstanding management And most importantly -- CONSISTENCY! If you love Mediterranean food and haven't tried Kairo's yet, put it on your list. This isn't just somewhere we occasionally stop for lunch or dinner anymore. It has become one of our regular places -- and one of our absolute favorites. FIVE STARS AND THREE THUMBS UP FROM US! Keep doing exactly what you're doing, Griffin and the entire Kairo's team. You guys have created something special, and we'll definitely keep coming back!

As an extreme Cava lover, I never thought a bowl-centered fast food place would be better than…read morethat, but I stand corrected, because Kairos has become my absolute favorite place to get a bowl. I usually just make my own bowl based off of my mood. It's always good and the ingredients are always fresh and flavorful. The MP location was a little bit dirty at the time I was there, but they were also busy so they might not have had a minute to wipe down tables. The service is pretty reliable. Not to compare too much but I've had some issues with the service at Cava recently, so Kairos is winning in my book!

The food is authentic, organic, fresh, and absolutely delicious. They have a great selection, including drinks, coffee, cakes, paninis, and sandwiches, and everything I've had has been excellent. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with its own unique style and personality. They also have a really nice outdoor seating area, which makes it even better when the weather is nice. But the best part for me is the customer service. The owner and cook always treat me like family, come out to talk, and make the experience personal every single time. That kind of hospitality is hard to find and makes a big difference. I'm really glad we have a place like this in Mount Pleasant -- authentic food, great atmosphere, and genuinely wonderful people.

They have options for breakfast (served until 12pm) and various salads, wraps, and sandwiches for lunch. We were greeted upon entering and the woman at the counter was very friendly. I chose the Spicy Chicken Wrap and a caramel frappe. The frappe was pretty and also yummy. The wrap was huge - I could only eat half of it. It was essentially a large salad wrapped in a tortilla. It wasn't that spicy, but it was tasty. Service was quick, the place was clean, staff was friendly, and the food was good. I would certainly go back again.

The last two times I've ordered pita chips and hummus through the app, the online ordering process felt completely pointless. Both times, my order was marked with an estimated pickup time, but it wasn't actually ready until more than 10 minutes after that. While I was waiting, I watched employees serve 15+ people who came through the regular line after I had already placed and paid for my order. I even saw pita chips being given to customers in line while I was still waiting for the chips I had ordered earlier. It just doesn't seem like online orders are being prioritized or managed efficiently. On top of that, both orders of pita chips were so heavily seasoned and salty that I couldn't finish them. I've had the pita chips here many times over the years and never had this issue before, but the last two visits have been consistent enough that it feels worth mentioning. As a college student, eating out is something I have to budget for and is a treat I look forward to. When the food isn't edible because it's overly salty and the pickup process takes significantly longer than expected, it feels like a waste of money. I know everyone has off days, and I've had plenty of positive experiences at this location in the past. However, because this has happened twice in a row, I'll definitely be more hesitant about ordering here in the future.

One thing that immediately stood out was that they were open late on a Sunday. We arrived around 8 PM, which was incredibly convenient, and since the restaurant wasn't crowded, we were seated right away. Our server (I unfortunately don't remember her name, she was blonde and incredibly friendly) provided what was probably the best service we experienced during our entire trip. She was attentive, welcoming, and made excellent recommendations. We ordered the 2x California Burger, chicken sandwich, a gyro, side salads (they put the dressing on the salads, it was actually the perfect amount for me, but just be warned, ask for it on the side if you want to add it yourself), and a cheesesteak. The gyro (I got lamb) was recommended by our server, and it did not disappoint! Everything was fantastic, but the burgers deserve special recognition. Whoever was working the grill that night deserves a raise. Hands down, the best burger we had on our entire trip. The seasoning was perfect, the patties were thick and juicy, and they had an amazing char that took them to the next level. We also upgraded to the Aloha Fries, which were a great addition and definitely worth trying. From the outstanding food to the exceptional service, Coleman Public House exceeded our expectations in every way. We'll definitely be back because there are still so many items on the menu we want to try. The place was clean, could use a little update/refresh with paint and small things...but I come for the food first and foremost. Seriously, give this place a shot, you won't regret it. Yum!
