The Local Palate|Charleston Insider's Guide 2023
DANIEL ISLAND is not exactly a starter-home kind of place, but it’s increasingly more than a golf club community, with its many family-friendly green spaces and a downtown area with plenty of restaurants in close proximity. It’s a short drive to either Mount Pleasant or North Charleston dining and shopping, and it’s also home to Credit One Stadium, host to its namesake women’s tennis tournament and one of Charleston’s best venues for open-air concerts. The development of Waterfront Park with its gorgeous views, along with public docks and a water ferry service, has made the island even more accessible to visitors and nonresidents.

EAT + DRINK
TRIED & TRUE

AGAVES CANTINA

With multiple Lowcountry locations, this is a go-to for Tex-Mex favorites. Go all in with the molcajete-a hot stone bowl filled with carne asada, chorizo, chicken, cactus, queso fresco, onions, and avocado served with rice, beans, and a quesadilla.

ALI BABA MEDITERRANEAN CAFÉ

Everything is good here: gyros, souvlaki, pita, falafel, kebabs, and their specialty, fatayer (Mediterranean pizza). Make a meal out of the salad and deli case with dozens of mostly vegetarian and vegan selections, from hummus and pomegranate muhamara to fattosh and tabouli.

BEECH

Their "four pillars of a balanced diet"-fruit, fish, rice, and vegetables create a resort-casual menu of fresh juices, smoothies, açai bowls, and poke bowls, along with signature chicken salad and black bean hummus.

BLONDIES BAGELS & CAFE

This locals' spot for breakfast and lunch, created by a pair of New Jersey expats who are sisters and business partners, slings fresh baked goods and a host of housemade flavored cream cheeses, like lox and capers and horseradish-bacon.

DANIEL ISLAND MARKET & EATERY

This waterfront cafe, also known as DIME, is an open, airy space with a large patio and views of the Wando River. You'll find lovely lattes, scratch-made baked goods, smoothies, and grab-and-go items.

DRAGON PALACE

We have a soft spot for sesame and orange chicken, but here, the handmade dumplings served in bamboo steamers are not to be missed. The decor at this imperial garden-inspired spot is part of the experience.
