My Dear Foodie Friend and I recently had dinner at Mondo's, James Island, located on Folly Road. Our wait time was less than 20 minutes, during rush "dinner-time." Mondo's is a lively, casual eatery with a friendly staff sure to please the patrons. The House was packed and folks waited just a short time to be seated. Rick was our waiter and without a doubt, the most friendly and attentive waiter I have encountered in quite some time. There was no rush, we were in no rush, and within ten minutes or less of placing our orders, out came the most crisp and fresh salad which contained an assortment of delectable vegetables with a dazzling House dressing (not to mention beautiful and oh, so colorful) and their famous bread! Rick always checked in on us, as he passed our table. Within 15 minutes after placing our entre order, the plates came out, piping hot and the presentation was just absolutely amazing! The blend of seasonings, the fresh ingredients, and the delectable taste of fresh basil, reminded us we were in the absolutely finest Italian restaurant in Charleston. We savored every morsel and ended up asking for a "to-go" box. It's rare when you have leftovers and want to "savor" them the next day, just as you did the dinner! It was a fabulous dining experience and we will definitely return for another very special treat. Mondo's, you rank ten stars in our book!

We eat here fairly often. The best Italian on James Island and one of the best in the greater Charleston area. No reservations so get here early or plan to wait a while. Limited outdoor seating but if the weather is good it’s very nice. Inside, it’s pretty tame decor but clean and well spaced. Not too loud when full but certainly not on the quiet side. Menu is fairly broad so there is something for everyone and the prices are reasonable considering the quality and quantity of food delivered. This is a very good restaurants and we give it 4.5 clams on the coveted Five Quahog Rating Scale.
