"A Jacksonville-based diner chain with multiple locations (including one in Aiken, SC) is opening a Lowcountry outpost at 1808 Sam Rittenberg Boulevard in West Ashley next month. Known for generous portions—an attribute praised by Guy Fieri when the restaurant was featured on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives—the menu focuses on American comfort food such as meatloaf, the Pittsburgh steak salad, chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits, pulled pork, and mac ’n cheese. The new location will operate weekdays 7:00 a.m.–2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m.–9:00 p.m., and weekends 7:00 a.m.–9:00 p.m.; it is currently recruiting roughly 100 local hires for servers, hosts, cooks, and kitchen staff, with applications accepted online or by calling (843) 894-0202." - Erin Perkins
"A Jacksonville, Florida–based diner that previously appeared on Guy Fieri’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, this expanding national chain is opening a 3,700‑square‑foot location in West Ashley’s Westwood Plaza on the Sam Rittenberg Boulevard side (taking over the former Fazoli’s space) and will share the center with a Tropical Smoothie Cafe near the recently opened Harris Teeter. The restaurant emphasizes hearty portions and creative twists on American comfort food, displays the motto “where the locals eat” on interior signage, and will offer breakfast and brunch highlights such as fried chicken and waffles, a sourdough Monte Cristo, Charleston shrimp and grits, six different Benedicts, and the signature Yo Holla on the Square (challah French toast stuffed with bananas, brown sugar, cream cheese and hazelnut syrup, topped with a blueberry‑strawberry compote)." - Susan Stapleton
