    Carne Burrito, tacos, street corn

    Great little stop. We enjoyed our asado tacos, a shrimp taco, street corn, and a steak burrito. The owner was fun, and said he had been there 10 years. He had reasonable prices. it is cash only

    Gallina Loca is a hidden gem on Johns Island, just off of Maybank Highway. This place has outstanding, affordable food and the owner is always very friendly. Where else can you get tacos for $3. Everything on the menu is excellent. I grab burritos and quesadillas from this food truck weekly. I usually go with chicken or pork for the meat. This is a cash business so remember to stop at the bank machine. I would recommend this place.

    We made the mistake of dropping in on Cinco de Mayo without thinking about it as other than any…read moreother day. Lots of other people did the same thing. Fortunately we were early enough to get a place to sit before the line formed out the door. The biggest complaint was the service. They appeared to be terribly understaffed for even a regular day. Service was sooooo slow. Hard to get even water refills. The food did arrive hot. It was very typical Mexican style food. I had a chicken macho burrito. The chicken was overcooked and it had a two shrimp in the filling. Fortunately I have no allergies to shellfish and actually like shrimp but his could have been disastrous for someone else. The restaurant was very loud and could also use some updates. In spite of the large crowd, and being grossly overworked, the staff remained helpful and friendly to the best of their ability which I give them kudos for considering the situation. Probably won't come back.

    Casa Feista is one of the better Mexican restaurants in Charleston. They have the best queso and…read morethe friendliest staff. I frequent this establishment quite often with friends and not once over the years I've been going have I had a bad experience or dish. The fried mojarra is my personal favorite to get with fresh tortillas. It's always cooked perfectly, not overdone and flavorful. The street tacos are top tier! And while I didn't get one this time, their skinny margs are some of the best on the peninsula. Highly recommend. It's always very clean and prices are cheap!

    Went to The Tattooed Moose over Easter weekend and had a great time. The setup is awesome they've…read moregot both indoor and outdoor space, and there was live music going which made for a really fun vibe. Outdoor area is dog friendly too which is always a win. I had the duck club and it's still one of my favorites in Charleston. Just consistently really good and definitely something I'd recommend if it's your first time. They're pretty well known for it for a reason. Only heads up is the bugs can get a little aggressive outside depending on the time of day, so might be worth bringing some bug spray. Overall though, solid spot with good food and a laid back atmosphere. Would definitely go back.

Even the kids chicken stop basket is some of the best chicken I've eaten in years picking off my son's plate. Their Duck burger? Or whatever is incredible. You can get a half portion slider during happy hour. Great happy hour for you and your kids. Very family friendly. Just great vibes, friendly and attentive staff, and most importantly the food. You absolutely cannot go wrong choosing to eat here. Even if the place is packed and parking lot is full don't be discouraged as they'll exceed your expectations once you get inside. (We went there three times the 5 days we stayed in the area. Twice with just my family and once with a very large group.)
