Plenty of parking, really good service, great atmosphere. This place had the best omelette I’ve ever had in my life. The coffee was five stars with latte art! I got the shrimp chorizo gouda and caramelized onion omelette, wife got shrimp and grits, and my son and daughter both got the pancakes! Would come again a hundred times.

I have eaten here several times and the food is consistently cooked very well. I have never eaten anything that I did not like or lacked flavor. My group and I started with the BLT Deviled Eggs, Burrata Caprese, and She Crab Soup, all of which were outstanding. I ordered the Seared Scallops with brussel sprouts, mixed vegetables and sweet potato puree. The scallops had a parmesean crust that was simply delicous and satifying, the brussel sprouts were crispy and the sweet potato puree was creamy. The presentation of the dish was stunning that gave you that fine dining experience. My friend had the Chicken Pesto Tortellini. The dish had a lemon pesto cream sauce that was excellent. We finished with a key lime pie that was light and refreshhing along with a gluten free carrot cake, that my friend said you could not tell it was gluten free, and yes it had a light cream cheese icing. The Refuge partners with a local bakery, so no packaged desserts. The service was awesome, our waiter was polite, friendly and attentive. He was very knowledgable about the menu and dishes. He gave his top 3 for appetizers, entrees, and desserts. He also guided my friend to gluten free options on the menu. Overall I would highly recommend The Refuge.

The Refuge gave us a good meal with food that really hit the spot. Service was friendly, just a bit overwhelmed at times. The atmosphere was fine, nothing too memorable, and the strip mall setting does not add much personality. Still, it is a solid place to eat on Isle of Palms if you want something reliable and tasty.

My wife and I stopped by the Refuge Restaurant for brunch while waiting for an early check-in at our accommodations, and we enjoyed the experience! I ordered the western omelet with home fries, and it was perfectly cooked—fluffy, flavorful, and paired with crispy, well-seasoned fries. My wife got the berry pancakes, which were light, fluffy, and bursting with fresh berry goodness. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made it even better. The service was top-notch, and we can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend!

Took time in Refuge and tried their crab cake eggs Benedict and Maine cocktail, both of which were fantastic.
The design and delivery of the food stood up to its flavor and It makes me want to come back for more.
If you just need a coffee and some relaxation, there is an attached cafe that is quieter than the rest of the restaurant and easy to focus in.
Fantastic spot!

Thursday night dinner here was great. We got the crab dip and crab soup. Soup was good but the dip was incredible i highly recommend. Both entrees were great also. Seared scallops and a Thai coconut shrimp. We got the thyme in Maine as cocktails and honestly didn’t like them. The restaurant took them back and got us something else. Great food, service and the interior was very cool.

Super cute, clean, modern restaurant. Great service & food. Espresso martini was delicious! We ordered the She Crab Soup, fresh Lobster, crab cake (HUGE), and grilled shrimp (my son said it was his favorite he’s ever had), Tuna TarTar with crispy wontons.. only complaint was the wontons were not crispy- more chewy, so we just ate the tuna without.

While visiting Isle of Palms, we ate dinner at The Refuge with another couple. This is a fantastic restaurant with great food and exceptional service. For appetizers, we shared the BLT Deviled Eggs and Crispy Brussels. They were so good. I had the Braised Short Ribs for my meal that was outstanding. I also tried the Trigger fish and Seared Scallops that were cooked perfectly. The Refuge also has a cool bar. I loved everything about this restaurant and highly recommend eating here. If I lived closer, I would be a regular customer.
