Best Casual Restaurants in Johns Island

We had such a wonderful lunch ! We started with a flight of mimosas ! And then the fried chicken sandwich and the southern salads ! It’s was great ! Food was delicious and the place is beautiful!

A truly exceptional fine dining experience. Our server Stephanie (from Phoenix AZ) as fantastic in paying a lot of attention to us and the rest of her tables. They have an incredible wine list with some decent prices as well. We ordered Foie Gras (excellent), Carpaccio (light and easy). My wife ordered a Fillet which was cooked to perfection. I ordered the local fish with white asparagus. Only comment was that the "sauce" consisting of capers and olives was way too salty. Other than not being asked if we wanted to check in our coats at the beginning, I would give it a 9.5 out of ten.

Amelia was a wonderful server, very pleasant and attentive. The dining experience with our dog Cody was a big success in large part due to Amelia and all the servers, thank you!! Will definitely visit again when in Charleston…🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴

Bar Copa is a little gem on Johns Island. This was our 4th visit and each time the food, drinks and service have been outstanding. The crudo and tuna tartar are so fresh and tasty. The octopus, crab dip, spicy Caesar salad....yum. The burrata on pear conserva is inspired and marvelous. Crab dip, mushrooms, and shrimp a la plancha are truly delicious. We will return again and again. So happy Bar Copa opened in our neighborhood!

Indaco is a pasta lover’s dream come true! From start to finish, our meal was nothing short of exceptional. We began with the Caesar salad, which might just be the best Caesar I’ve ever had. Instead of the usual croutons, they used delicate crumbles of heaven that elevated every bite. It was so good, we ordered a second one before our pasta even arrived! The pasta dishes were equally outstanding. The tortellini and the black pepper tagliatelle (their incredible take on carbonara) were both cooked to perfection, with flavors that were rich, balanced, and utterly delicious. Each bite showcased the care and skill that goes into their pasta-making. Although we didn’t try the pizzas, we saw them being served to other tables, and they looked absolutely beautiful—definitely something to try on a future visit. To finish, we indulged in the classic tiramisu, which was the perfect ending to an unforgettable meal. Indaco is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates expertly crafted Italian cuisine. If you’re in Charleston, don’t miss it!
