American Restaurant the James Opens on James Island | Eater Carolinas

"Opening Monday, July 17, this neighborhood restaurant from Neighborhood Dining Group (owners of Husk, Delaney Oyster House, and Minero) with chef Mark Keiser (formerly of Oak Steakhouse) serves classic American grill fare with an emphasis on predictability and comfort. The menu includes tuna tartare, cream of mushroom soup, spinach artichoke dip, prime rib, Caesar salad, burgers, and other familiar hits, while the drink list features classic martinis (including lemon drop and appletini) alongside creative choices like a frozen James Island iced tea and a pomegranate Negroni. Aimed at neighbors and families, the spot offers a children’s menu and positions itself as a reliable, go-to place for the community, serving dinner seven nights a week from 4 p.m. with plans to add lunch later." - Erin Perkins
