Covered fries and wings.

Here for Sunday football. Excellent atmosphere. TVs labeled for games. Alisa working was friendly and attentive. 20 plus people on a Sunday afternoon. Friendly staff and great food. Wings are fantastic. Had the garlic parm wings and buffalo parm. Both amazing.

Egg roll

I come back for the Uptown every time! But the egg rolls and wings were a delight too. Wings were over cooked by a couple short minutes but the flavor was great. Our waitress was lovely and attentive! We love coming here for the friendly small town atmosphere.

Cuban half demolished! SO GOOD!
Eddie T.

The service is expedient and the food is FRESH! Got the Cuban with chips. The Cuban is LOADED with fresh protein and the chips are cooked just right! I came here about a year ago and it was good, but it's improved since then! Nice to find when most places are struggling to find staff. Plenty of help and friendly faces!

This place is ridiculous and desperate to get any dollar they can. They charged me four $1 fees to pick up my food and a 3% service charge. Never again. Burgers were dry

Fries were cold and the burger looked like a pre-made patty from Walmart. Not the worst but definitely not the best.

This is EXACTLY the type of place Moncks Corner has been needing and I'm so glad Ophelia's is here!…read more I stopped in for a first time visit late one Sunday afternoon and my friend and I ended up having the place all to ourselves before the Happy Hour/early dinner crowd began arriving. The two staff working were both super friendly and answered all of our questions. Service was fast and our wine glasses never remained empty long. I loved the variety of wines offered and for snacks we opted to try the charcuterie board and do a variety of their crostinis. The charcuterie we built was DELICIOUS and I'm still dreaming about their house made sun dried tomato goat cheese. By the time the crostinis came out we were starting to get full but I could have eaten the pistachio and brie cheese one aaaallll day. It was a wonderful way to pass a few hours on Main Street and I can't wait to return again to support this wonderful and local small business! Businesses like this are what Moncks Corner needs more of....not another chain fast food restaurant or big box retailer. Mayor Lockliear, please take note.

I normally do not post things like this publicly, but after attempting to address concerns…read moreprivately and receiving no response, I feel obligated to share our experience to help others make informed decisions when booking events. We recently hosted our daughter's First Communion celebration at Ophelia's Wines & Bites, and unfortunately the experience was extremely disappointing. Throughout the planning process, numerous promises were made regarding setup assistance, décor, staffing, food portions, beverage service, and overall event coordination that were either not followed through on or changed entirely by the day of the event. Family members and guests ended up handling many tasks that we were told would already be completed, including decorating, organizing tables, lighting candles, and addressing missing items while guests were arriving. Food portions were much smaller than represented during the tasting, several items we expected to be included were charged separately, beverage service was poorly managed, and there was little to no actual table service despite paying for what was presented as an "all-inclusive" event experience. Most upsetting was the lack of communication, follow-through, and accountability afterward. We spent a significant amount of money expecting professionalism and hospitality, but left feeling stressed, embarrassed, and taken advantage of during what should have been a very special day for our daughter. I am sharing this simply so others thoroughly clarify ALL expectations, pricing, staffing, setup responsibilities, food quantities, and service details in writing before booking an event there.

I was very skeptical to go here with the wife after seeing reviews and hearing bad things. But I…read moresaw a couple items I thought would be interesting to try. And figured why not give them a shot. And I am glad we did. The service was great , food was very delicious and cooked properly. The drinks were awesome from behind the bar that we tried. The atmosphere and all was welcoming. We could not have asked for a better experience. All the way around it was great. The only complaint I have is at myself for not giving them a shot sooner. Definitely will be going back again soon.

This issue occurred on 15 AUG 2025 at 6:37pm. I ordered two meals online for pick up at this…read morelocation, the two meals were the four cheese and honey chicken tenders. The online instructions said it would track your location so they know when you arrive so they can bring your food out, but this never happens. Arrived at 6:37 Pm and parked in the to go pick up parking space, waited 20 minutes, called the restaurant and received no answer, so I went inside and spoke with the bartender about my pick up order, to which she replied " They are making it right now". I continued to wait at the bar until my food was brought out to me at 7:28pm. Some details I realized while I was sitting at the bar Was I was not alone in my experience this night as the to go pick up spots were all filled and customers were starting to follow suit and enter the restaurant to inquire about their meals. I also noticed that the reason I could not get through to anyone was because the employees had taken the phone off of the hook to which I took a picture. When I returned home and sat down to eat the food, I noticed upon opening the container that the meal appeared to be just noodles and the honey chicken tenders no four cheese whatsoever and this took from 6:20 pm when I ordered online to 7:28 PM when I finally received the meal. I've given this location multiple chances, as this was not the first time I've ordered online and no one came out with food, leaving me no option, but to go in and inquire about my meal. This was the last chance. This location has permanently lost a customer. I will not be returning.

Fireside Pizza in Moncks Corner is an absolute gem and delivers a dining experience that goes far…read morebeyond expectations. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a warm, welcoming staff and an atmosphere that feels both relaxed and elevated--casual enough to enjoy comfortably, yet clearly driven by culinary passion and quality. The food is exceptional. The truffle short rib pizza is a standout and truly unforgettable. The short rib is tender, rich, and deeply flavorful, perfectly complemented by the earthy truffle notes without being overpowering. The crust is expertly done--crispy on the outside with just the right chew--clearly the result of skill and attention to detail. Knowing that the ingredients are made in-house only adds to the appreciation; every bite tastes intentional, fresh, and thoughtfully crafted. The cheesesteak egg rolls are another must-have. Crispy on the outside, generously filled, and bursting with savory flavor, they strike the perfect balance between comfort food and elevated appetizer. Dipping them into the spicy ketchup takes them to the next level, adding just the right amount of heat and tang to round everything out. Service truly elevates the experience. Dasha was fantastic--attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making sure everything was perfect without ever feeling intrusive. She keeps recommending items and pairings which made the interaction very entertaining. Her attentiveness and making sure service was top tier was met with perfection! Meeting the owner was a highlight as well. Learning that he was trained internationally within Michelin-star restaurants explains the level of execution and creativity on the menu. That high-level training clearly translates into the food, while still maintaining an approachable, community-focused vibe. You can tell when someone loves what they do especially as a chef because you can taste it in their food. Overall, Fireside Pizza is doing something special in Moncks Corner--combining top-tier culinary technique, house-made ingredients, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Tucked away in a little corner beside the KFC, this hidden gem is so worth a revisit for the whipped ricotta and fried dough. This is easily a five-star experience and a place that deserves repeat visits. Highly recommended.

Overall, it ended up being one of those meals that was perfectly fine--nothing bad, but nothing that really wowed us either. We started with the Brussel Sprouts, which were definitely the highlight. Nicely cooked, flavorful, and a great way to kick things off. We shared a Margherita pizza that was just okay--good enough, but a little forgettable compared to other spots around town. The Sicily salad was next, and if you're a salad person, you'll probably enjoy this one. It was fresh, well balanced, and one of the more satisfying dishes we tried. We also ordered the Drunk Cutlet sandwich. The flavors were there, but the cutlet itself was super thin, so it felt a little underwhelming for the size of the bread. The short rib bolognese was solid--comforting and hearty, though not something I'd rush back specifically for. All in all, Fireside is a decent neighborhood spot for a quick, easy meal. It didn't blow us away, but it's a reliable option when you want a casual bite without much fuss.
