I love birria tacos so when I found out there was a whole restaurant dedicated to this delicacy, I knew I had to try it. I had an event nearby so I left the house early so I could beat traffic and stop in for tacos. My intern got stuck in said traffic so I dined solo. Inside the decor is nice and festive plus my server was very sweet. I started with an order of the birria dumplings. They were like gyoza but filled with beef and served with consume for dipping. Of course I had to get the birria tacos as well. It came with three tacos, beans, and rice, and again a consume for dipping. The tacos were great... probably in my top 3 for birria. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu.

SO delicious!!! We got the birtia tacos and the birria torta, delicious. I had the horchata- YUM! Husband got a non-alcoholic mitchelada. Definitely will be going again!

Live music

We were here for opening night and had a blast. There was a live mariachi band, singing, and dancing. I didn't understand a single word of it and still had a great time. The food was amazing. The Hulk Burrito lived up to its name. It's loaded with rice, beans, cheese, and steak. Then it's covered in green sauce. The tequila mule was perfect. Great if you enjoy ginger. The staff were the stars of the night. For as busy as they were they were always there. There was no long wait or delay. They were awesome.

Lime margarita

Had a nice evening at the newly opened Toro Burria. Very welcoming wait staff who were very attentive as well. Business hasn't picked up yet, so we were able to be seated right away. When we entered, it was only a few people dining, but it filled up quickly thereafter. It's a spacious place so you don't feel like you're sitting on top of other guest. The food was good. I ordered a burrito which was fairly large and fully stuffed with chicken, beef, and veggies. My friend ordered the wonton appetizer which was flavorful and the ACP and enjoyed it as well. The drinks were good, but could use less sweetness for better balance. I mentioned this to my waitress and the next drink was just right. It's in a great location with plenty of parking, so I know business will pick up soon. Looking forward to dining here again soon.

Passion fruit margarita
Dorothy H.

The service was awesome. Everything came out fast. The sauces are off. I totally agree with another reviewer, the salsa did taste like marinara and the sauce with the birra wontons was off too. The drinks were great though. I really enjoyed my passion fruit margarita

Hurricane cocktail and house margarita with chips and salsa.

A great new find on Dorchester Road. This spot is super cozy and perfect for any meal. The food was spectacular, the drinks were pretty good, and the portions are huge for the price. Friendly service, too--highly recommend if your looking for a closer spot off of Ashley phosphate.

Food and service were amazing!!!! Super cute inside too. Vegetarian friendly birria options which is the first I've seen. Best Mexican in the area

Mango Margarita

New Mexican restaurant in N. Charleston. Hostess and Servers were very nice and happy to answer our questions. Their happy hour drink special is buy 2 classic margaritas of any flavor, frozen or on the rocks, & get a 3td for free. Great flavors. Extensive food menu like most other Mexican restaurants. Their salsa reminded me of marinara sauce. The setup inside is bright and nice. We will be back.

Starving and this salsa is ON POINT! Can you see the herbs and onions? Light, fresh, flavorful with a hint of a kick!

Oh my goodness where to start OK first with the chips and salsa this is one of the best most flavorful fresh salsa I've ever had at a Mexican restaurant like seriously I'm ordering a chips and salsa to go cause there's salsa is amazing and I normally like you know, don't really go in for the chips and salsa but I immediately scarfed 3/4 of the bowl like in the first five minutes. It's that damn good.! next I decided to order the Beria sample platter because I really love Beria and I was not disappointed. This thing is massive and so good. Oh my goodness, their white queso is some of the most flavorful cheese pulled white queso I've ever had in my life. It's a game changer. Truly you really need to order this. The next time you come and then it's got these little taquitos that are full of shredded Birria beef and then you got that little side cup of the burial, consume brawl to dip it in and then they also have like a little Birria cheese, queso kind of quesadilla where the tortilla has been dipped in that broth and then grilled oh my gosh, so good and then all of that is on top of these nachos that have lettuce and tomatoes and jalapeños and the shredded beer beef with that white queso all over it oh my goodness I don't even want to think about the thousands of calories this dish probably has but it's so delicious and you just have to try it. you just have to order this. It's it truly is necessary in your life. A kid do not trust me get the beer sampler and that will tell you everything you need to know. Have a great weekend.

This was our first time dining here. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and welcoming. We were greeted promptly and politely. Our waitress was super nice and had a great smile. We ordered some drinks that were tasty ( pineapple margaritas) . The prices were lower than other Mexican restaurants we have been to in the area. And the quantity of food was very good. We enjoyed the Birria empanadas and the Toro Sampler . We will be back !

Nicholas S.

First time here it is tucked away off Dorchester Road. Once walking inside, it's nice chill vibes, clean place. The margarita was very good along with the salsa, which had a lot of flavor. The food was excellent, and the bartender was nice. I look forward to going back and trying other items on their menu.

Grilled Chicken Bowl
Gabe H.

The food was delicious! A well cooked meal. No complaints. The service was awesome! Ashli is super nice! The atmosphere is nice and lowkey. The queso is a little expensive but good. The chips were nice and crispy and the salsa had warm comforting spices. The grilled chicken was seasoned really well and the rice was delicious. A great experience!

The menu was a bit confusing overall - everything is family style and ordered for the table and brought out in courses. I'm usually a big fan of family style except their menu was a little hard to tell what was 1st, 2nd and main course. Since it was just 2 of us we ordered 4 items and it was plenty of food. We started with the cornbread and I will say - literally the best cornbread I've ever had in my life. Not exaggerating, I would eat a full meal of just this cornbread. Then we got the pork dumplings which were great - they did have a tiny bit of spice so be cognizant of that if you're super sensitive. Then we got the Dan Dan Noodles, they were a bit underwhelming to me - they sounded better than they actually were and for the price, it really seems to be bare minimum noodle / meat. Lastly we got the Karrage chicken which was a fried chicken bite with a lemon sauce. The chicken was very tough and over fried which made it tough to eat. The service was wonderful and the waitress was super helpful in helping us understand the menu and recommending items for us to try!

Chef's Kiss! What…read morean absolutely wonderful experience at La Chev 208 in Summerville! This quaint little French restaurant is truly a hidden gem. From the atmosphere to the service to the FOOD--everything was fantastic! We started with shrimp cocktail and French bread, along with a glass of Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio. For our entrées, we had the filet mignon and beef bourguignon, and WOW! Every bite was delicious and beautifully prepared. Our waitress, Reina, was so sweet and attentive, and the owner personally stopped by our table several times to make sure we had everything we needed and that our meals were prepared perfectly. That kind of personal attention really made the evening feel special. The restaurant was packed, and we even saw a few couples turned away because there simply weren't any tables available--which tells you everything you need to know! Definitely make a reservation! Fantastic food, wonderful wine, amazing service, and such a charming atmosphere. La Chev 208 is an absolute Chef's Kiss! We will definitely be back!

The restaurant is located inside what was formerly a private residence, which adds to its charm & gives it that cozy, intimate vibe. There's seating downstairs, upstairs, and even in the backyard. Dining here feels like being invited over to a friend's house for dinner without having to bring anything ! I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the overall vibe. Also there's a few spots in the front for parking and also street parking. We started with the Fig & Prosciutto Salad with pickled red onion, goat cheese, and arugula. Anything with goat cheese already has my vote, but this was delicious. The fig added a nice crunchy texture and sweetness that worked really well with the prosciutto and goat cheese. I would definitely order this again. We also shared the Chevalier Salad with mesclun, strawberry, goat cheese, and pecans. This was also very good, fresh, flavorful, and a great combination of sweet & savory. Between the two salads, though, I would definitely choose the Fig & Prosciutto!! We also tried the Duck Dumplings with a Cabernet sweet & sour glaze. Unfortunately, this was probably my least favorite dish of the night. The dumpling itself was a little bland, and I didn't feel like the glaze added much to it. I wouldn't order these again. For an entrée, if you're looking for something filling and more on the comfort food side .... and something you may even have leftovers from : I'd recommend the Short Rib Ragout with spinach, goat cheese, pine nuts, demi glace, and tagliatelle. It was flavorful, and satisfying. I would definitely order this again but again anything with goat cheese has my attention ! Looking forward to going back to La Chev & exploring the menu further !

Don't let the name deter you if you are not a gin person because they have many options with different types of liquors. One tip: sit at the bar if you can, the set up is stunning especially for taking photos! The cocktail menu was moderately extensive with two full pages of complex and simple cocktails. Honestly, it was so difficult to choose what drink to get because I wanted to get everything on the menu. The bartenders were so attentive and talented - their implementation of each cocktail was even better than the menu descriptions. Not only were the drinks delicious but also beautifully presented. They have some bar bites as well as quite a few small and large plates, we got the pretzels which to my absolute surprise were so good! If I ever go back to Charleston, I will definitely be hitting this place up.

You can tell the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. The surprise star of the night, though, was the grilled cheese. Calling it a grilled cheese almost feels unfair because this thing was next-level. Perfectly crisp on the outside, rich and gooey on the inside, and paired with the cocktails so well that we were talking about it long after we left. Sometimes the simplest thing on a menu ends up stealing the show. The atmosphere strikes that perfect Charleston balance of classy, cozy, and effortlessly cool. Great service, great drinks, and one of the most memorable grilled cheese sandwiches I've ever had. If you're in Charleston and appreciate a serious cocktail program, The Gin Joint is a must-visit. Come for the drinks, stay because the grilled cheese will ruin lesser grilled cheeses for the rest of your life
