I was in South Carolina visiting family and one of my request was to get eat Authentic Soul Food. We look it up and Nigel’s popped up when we were visiting Charleston. WOW!!! What a great experience. I’m not a wing girl BUT the Geechie wings were 100/10!!! The flavor and the light crisp were sooo soo good! The fried steak with the gravy was delish, friend chicken and fried pork chop were so good too. We took the banana pudding home and that was 100/10 too. Our waitress was super sweet (sorry, I forgot her name) I also learned what Geechie meant and I now know what it stands for. I promise to go back when I’m visiting. Thank you

What can I say about this place.... Every time we come the food is on point! These have the best pork chops and mac and cheese. I tasted the husband’s Seafood Alfredo. This sauce was so good you could just drink it and the shrimp in that pasta was cooked to perfection! I highly recommend you try this place out. It was delicious.

We have dined at Nigels for years. There is always something delicious cooking in their kitchen. The black-eyed peas and yams are the best anywhere. Country fried steak is delicious. You won’t leave hungry either with generous portions. The service is friendly and genuinely helpful. The atmosphere is getting a little bit worn but still comfortable. If you like country/family cooking you won’t go wrong here.

Delicious fried chicken and affordable prices. We stopped here for lunch and really enjoyed the food. They were out of a few sides on the menu, but it did not negatively impact our experience. It was good, tasty soul food. The only downside was the air conditioning was up very high, so it was a bit cold inside.

Really enjoyed the blend of flavors and textures in this wonderful soul food. We had Low Country Ravioli with a side of Texas Toast and country-fried pork chops with 3 sides (collard greens, mac and cheese, and corn bread). Washed it down with house-made sweet tea. It really hit the spot! Thanks to our waitress, Misty, for her efficient, friendly service. Word of advice: This is a very popular diner so eat early before they run out of any items.

Went here for dinner with a friend and our two small children. Staff was kind and knowledgeable, we were welcomed and well taken care of. We both had burgers, I tried the grits with cheese (so yum), our kids got corn dogs and fries. Then we ordered dessert. Pictured here is my banana pudding, my friend got bread pudding. It was all absolutely delicious. Everyone finished their meal.
