    Part of our group was a little delayed. The hostess handled this well with no interruptions and service. The menu is appropriate for a German restaurant. A little bit limited on selections but not unexpected. The actual food was prepared quite well. Everything was tasty and came out at an appropriate temperature. The appetizers were creative. The schnitzel was fried Appropriately. The red cabbage is excellent. The potatoes and sauerkraut are very good. The strudel is excellent. The soufflé is very good. The spaghetti ice cream is a bit of a novelty. While it is visually pleasing, the taste is similar to a strawberry sundae. Overall, this is a good experience and I would recommend coming back if one is interested in German food.

    I recently visited Virginia’s on King in Charleston, and it was an incredible experience. I had the meatloaf sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious—comfort food at its finest, with rich flavors and the perfect balance of ingredients. My girlfriend tried the double loaded potato special, and it was nothing short of amazing—creative, flavorful, and so satisfying. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere had that cozy Southern charm that makes you want to stay a while. Virginia’s on King is definitely a place we’ll return to for more incredible dishes and great hospitality. Highly recommended!
