I could not say enough about this restaurant. We have eaten there twice now and have decided it's definitely our go to spot in all of Charleston. Our first time there was the night we got engaged and the staff went above and beyond, complimentary champagne, desserts, appetizers, everything! Today we went back for our first Valentines Day as a married couple and once again they outdid themselves. The food could not be any better and the people could not be anymore friendly. This place is true Southern Hospitality at its finest! The Perloo may be the best food I've ever had anywhere and my wife loves the flounder and grits! I could not recommend a better restaurant in Charleston!
My girlfriends and I had the most lovely dinner last night. The setting is relaxed and intimate which is perfect for nearly any occasion. We were greeted quickly upon entering and they already had our table beautifully prepared. Our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable, he offered suggestions when we couldn't decide between all of the incredible choices.
We had the pimento cheese and deviled eggs as starters, both outstanding. However, as someone born and raised in South Carolin I can whole heartedly say the pimento cheese was some of the best I've ever had. (Sorry, Grandmama) My friends and I ordered the Seasonal Salad which was perfectly balanced, shrimp and grits and the Fried Chicken plate with baked Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. All were delicious but the fried chicken was the star of the show. We completed our meal with banana pudding and a pound cake with fresh strawberry jam. My only complaint is that I wish I'd been able to physically eat more because it was all so delicious. The manager and chef both came by our table to check on us and everyone we interacted with was warm, polite and professional.
The food here was just okay overall, however we had one standout dish which was the fried green tomatoes. I would go back just for that alone. They were fried perfectly in a deliciously seasoned batter and the dipping sauce was perfect. Yum. The sliders and fries we got were not nearly as good (the fries seemed stale). The crab cakes with grits and corn relish needed some other textures as it all just mushed together. Maybe a crunchy slaw on the side or something like that. The mac and cheese our daughter ordered was so greasy it turned her stomach. Thankfully the server took it back. Our server was exceptional the whole way through. I wish I remember his name but he was the epitome of Southern hospitality. The atmosphere is nice with some lovely artwork representative of the region and a historic feel. We weren't overly impressed with the food but I would give it another try and would definitely get the fried green tomatoes again.
The service was great!
The atmosphere was surprisingly comfortable.
We walked in and saw a partially packed bar.
I thought this might get too loud to carry a conversation at our table, but it wasn't.
The food was. . .
I ordered the meatloaf, which was okay (a little dry), and it came with instant mashed potatoes.
My date was fine with her shrimp and grits.
The grits were not instant grits.
I'll be back, but I'm ordering the fried chicken; we saw that plate come out of the kitchen multiple times. It looked great!
Food is great. I had the shrimp and grits. Wife had pancakes. My Dad had the omelette. Drinks were good as well. Service was just a little slow. We were there for brunch in a Sunday.
On our first trip to Charleston, we wanted to enjoy all the great food they have to offer. Looking for the perfect brunch - breakfast spot was challenging on an early Saturday morning. Reservations are required or suggested at most of the more popular locations. Last minute Saturday Brunch reservations are rather difficult to find. I should have planned better. So we just changed our dining time to an early breakfast and landed at Virginia’s on King! What an absolute jewel this place is!!!
This quaint and nostalgic restaurant boasts all the southern charm we were looking for. The food, the atmosphere, and the service was everything and more! We were so glad we changed our brunch to breakfast, as it gave us more time to enjoy beautiful King Street. The Crab Eggs Benedict was to die for!!
More expensive than it should be in my opinion. Food wasn't as good as the hype about it. A good selection of food choices as far as brunch went and the service was excellent. I do recommend trying for brunch at least once but what you get for the price, it's a one time experience for me.
Nice spot for brunch. Good atmosphere, wait staff very nice and attentive. Had the flounder BLT was very tasty. Grits were very creamy, egg a little under seasoned. Daughter enjoyed her breakfast wrap. Expect a slightly pricey meal, but hey it’s Charleston. Will return for another visit to try the fried chicken!
Service was great. Wonderful local food. Everything from chicken and waffles two breakfast biscuit sandwiches two pancakes. Great atmosphere. Very clean. Great local place to try.
Decided to visit Virginia's for Sunday brunch. It features an impressively varied menu of Southern favorites, many with a little bit of a twist. She crab soup was great.
Excellent southern staples and enormous desserts. Lacking a full bar, cocktails are limited, but the shrimp and grits, fish and grits, and peach cobbler are excellent. Banana pudding without vanilla wafers? No old fashioned? Bless your hearts. But what you do well, you do very well. I can still taste that cheesy grits that comes with the fish, and the peach cobbler.
Nearly perfect, this was a great lunch. We had the country fried steak and eggs, and chicken and waffles. Great sweet tea. I will say we wished the maple syrup was heated, and the frying oil may have been too hot because the breading was very crispy and almost overdone. That could be a plus or minus depending on your preference. I liked it, my wife considered it a minus. Overall 9/10 for us.
