Best Family Style Restaurants in James Island

Wonderful Christmas Eve meal with extended family. The wait staff was extremely attentive and friendly. We had a wonderful time. The food was excellent.

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!

Delicious food! Best cornbread and mac & cheese around!!

Excellent service. Had multiple servers attend to us. Very helpful in explaining the entrees in detail and helping us decide. Our meals were excellent, one pasta and one scallops. Very interesting building with lots of character. We will be back.

Great cuisine! The blueberry BBQ wings starter is a must. Friendly and accommodating service, too.
