John King Grill & Dueling Piano Bar

"My fiance and I were staying in town and just got in. She was in the mood for burgers and I thought the appetizer sampler looked good, so we door dashed it Thursday night. It was amazing. Then Saturday night we decided to dine in. We were not disappointed and would recommend this to anyone that is looking for things outside the local seafood fair and want a friendly atmosphere."

"Great time at John King Grill during our trip to Charleston. Good beer selection and highly recommend the smash burgers and beignets! Maddy, Trinity and Emily were amazing. Great service and everyone working there was so friendly and had a smile. Shout out to Emily for helping with a shirt for my dad."

"Was visiting Charleston this past weekend and we stopped in to have a few drinks at the bar and stumbled upon this wonderful place. We sat at the bar with Sarah and she was so nice and knowledgeable about Charleston and gave us great ideas on things to do and places we needed to see! Gave us great food recommendations!! That king Charleston burger is a must!! She raved over the pimento cheese which is house made and I had to try it and I must say it was the best pimento cheese I’d ever tried, had a few beers and lots of laugh so we had to come back again but we wanted to try something different and I was skeptical but she assured me the shrimp and grits were the best on king st and that’s no lie!! The grits were amazing the shrimp grilled to perfection and that gravy was something out of this world!! So glad we got to hang out with her again laughing and having a good time! She is exactly what you want out of a bartender/server, with her great personality and attention to ensure you are having a good time. She recommended us coming back for the piano show and we did we had such a blast we sat with Faith and she was so nice and very prompt on keeping us taking care of! Well done JohnKing with your amazing food and glorious staff! This was a trip we will never forget!! Just sad I couldn’t give these ladies more stars! We will definitely be back and telling all our friends that this is a must stop at while they are in Charleston! Thank you Sarah and Faith for phenomenal service!!"

"I stopped in for lunch on a Tuesday. They were slow so my experience will potentially vary as it gets busy. The food was very good! Kids meals were generous in size. The cheeseburgers and fries are awesome, as are their wings. I enjoyed my experience and would go back."
