Dulce Ice Cream is a true gem tucked into the unassuming Walmart strip mall in North Mt. Pleasant…read more Don't let the location fool you--what this place lacks in flashy signage, it makes up for in flavor, charm, and serious scoop artistry. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with a bright, cheerful space, flowers everywhere and the welcoming smell of fresh waffle cones being made right behind the counter. The staff? Warm, patient, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping you find your new favorite flavor. Whether you're a kid, a grandparent, or somewhere in between, you're treated like a regular. The ice cream. It's next level. Every flavor is creamy, decadent, and clearly crafted with care--no mass-produced shortcuts here. Local favorites like horchata, mango chili, and tres leches sit beside classics like cookies & cream and chocolate fudge brownie. You can taste the difference, and honestly, I'd choose Dulce over any big-name creamery in Charleston. Plus, prices are more than fair for the quality and portion size--great value for families or just an indulgent solo treat. Don't miss.. it's fabulous

We sat outside on the patio with our dog -- always nice to find a spot that's truly pet-friendly. I ordered the mahi-mahi tacos and a Korean steak taco, and both were very good -- fresh, flavorful, and nicely presented. If I had one small note, it would be that both could use just a touch more seasoning, but overall they hit the spot. The atmosphere was relaxed, the service friendly, and it's great to see this local favorite continue to improve. Definitely worth a visit if you haven't been in a while!

First the interior decor is beautiful and welcoming, with a nice layout of various seating options. The only negative is the noise level can be a little high. The starter options include focaccia, Caesar sales, limone salad, and several other delicious options. We've enjoyed the froto misto, and arancini. There are also pizzas to order, which we want to try next time. On our recent visit we enjoyed the pappardelle with braised lamb and cavatelli pomodoro. Both were stunning in appearance and taste. For dessert we had to order the olive oil cake and a couple of dessert cocktails. The service is friendly and engaging and we always feel welcome. We appreciate having such a high quality Italian restaurant in this part of Mt. Pleasant. It offers a robust menu with farmhouse pastas and signature dishes of exceptional culinary artistry.

There's something about the name "Acme" and good seafood when it comes to coastal restaurants…read more Along the Gulf, you think of Acme Oyster House. On the coastal Atlantic, we recommend Acme Low Country Kitchen. You get five-star food in a rustic setting that could benefit for a bit of a makeover -- but only a touch or two. Excellent service compliments the food. On our plate: The "Light: House, including sauteed shrimp, seared scallops and a house-made, fresh crab cake that comes with a caveat that a shell chip or two might be mixed (we call that authentication). All were perfectly prepared and ample sized. This wasn't a shrimp-and-chips drive-through; this was a meal. Our sides: Collards (this is the low country) and fried Brussel sprouts, again well prepared. Price: $38.25 and among the higher-priced items on the seafood-heavy menu but worth it. Others in our party, including two non seafood eaters, chose the pecan fried chicken (two breast with one each going home because of the size) with another going with the Carolina Duo of the chicken and short ribs. Will we return? Yes. There are other options we've yet to try as our visits to Charleston increase but this was a real treat. Even better, it is near the fabled Dingy beach bar where we ducked in to watch the Kentucky Derby. We could spend our retirement years at The Dingy but that's another review to come. Acme is a 4.5-star review with the only points shaved because it just needs a little updating (after the season, perhaps). The food and service more than make up for it.

Well bless it, I don't even know where to begin with what happened to us this Easter at ACME…read moreRestaurant on Isle of Palms. We walked in and the place was emptier than a church on a Wednesday night, yet somehow we were told to head on over to the bar, wait for a table, and go ahead and order ourselves a drink. Didn't make much sense, but we did as we were told. Then we stood there a good 10 minutes while the bartender, who let us know he's studying to be a dentist up in Spartanburg, was busy chatting away with another customer like we weren't even there. When he finally got around to us, it felt like we were more of an inconvenience than paying customers. But the real kicker came after we finally got our drinks. The manager came up, and I kid you not, told us we had to leave the restaurant and go out to the parking lot to finish them. No explanation, just attitude, and not a polite one either. To be honest, the manager seemed like she might have had a little too much Easter spirit, if you catch my drift. The whole interaction was downright combative and made us feel completely unwelcome. What really got me, though, was the poor hostesses and waitstaff. They apologized to us over and over and quietly let us know this kind of situation is something they deal with on a daily basis. We even heard her speaking sharply to another customer, which made it clear this wasn't just a one time issue. Honestly, the whole experience felt like a bad trip to the dentist and cost about the same as a root canal. All in all, it was a mess from start to finish, rude, confusing, and about as un Southern hospitality as you can get. I would think twice before going back, y'all.

We got up there and played around a bit, and the bartender had a fun time laughing at us. Maybe with a constant happy hour menu, we will try it out again!

I also love the interior color used, as it is warm and relaxing. We like to sit at the booth bars, as they are just 2 tops, but give an added privacy by the design. Lola Rose features a comforting and approachable menu of big, seasonal salads, wood-fired pizzas, housemade pastas, local seafood and traditional mains. At the bar, classic favorites are served alongside creative spritzes and cocktails, local beer, and a wine list that focuses on Mediterranean and coastal American winemakers. Plus Lola Rose is the second concept from James Beard award-nominated chef Kevin Johnson and his wife Susan, who opened The Grocery in downtown Charleston in 2011. We have had the pleasure of seeing him in action and he is always approachable to the guests. We have visited Lola Rose several times and enjoyed many menu items. The rosemary focaccia is always a must order. Other great starters are the arancini, Sicilian meatballs, and our favorite is the roasted beets. Another great option to start is with a pizza, they have 9 different pizzas to choose from. Then an appropriate entree would be a pasta dish, we like the rigatoni verde and the bucatini. Note their pastas are all made in house. On our most recent visit we ordered the seasonal Softshell Crab special, and it was impressive and more delicious then expected. We appreciate that they had this item during the softie season, and this tops our list. Don't forget dessert as the budino and limencello cake are delicious sweet endings. Lola Rose makes going to downtown Charleston un-necessary, and it's location is easy to get to with plenty of parking. The service and the menu make it worth the visit, and we would recommend to all.

The manager also seems to recognize us every time we come in, no matter how long it's been since our last visit, which is a nice personal touch. The open kitchen adds a fun element to the experience. One of our favorites is the orecchiette ragu pasta -- we always ask for extra sauce, and it's absolutely delightful. We were a little disappointed that the calamari wasn't available on this visit, but we still really enjoyed the arancini, which are served with a wonderful tomato dipping sauce. We've honestly never had a bad meal here. My husband tried the shrimp pasta dish this time and really enjoyed it -- it had a nice little bit of spice that added great flavor without being overpowering. Overall, the fresh pastas, pizzas, and appetizers are all great choices. They also offer a fun happy hour with discounted appetizers and drinks. Definitely a place worth stopping into, and next time we're hoping to enjoy the outside patio when the weather is a little warmer.
