Former Screen Door Transitioned Into an ‘Eclectic’ American Restaurant

Folly Road restaurant Screen Door disappeared without many people noticing. Now, there’s a new establishment in its place at 1271 Folly Road named James Restaurant. The website lists evening and brunch hours, but only the dinner menu is available for perusal.

The offerings include duck-fat potatoes with spicy tomato aioli, crispy ribs, beef bourguignon, smoked trout dip, piri-piri chicken, wood-grilled trout, and more.

Eater has reached out for more information on James Restaurant, but the details are still coming in. Here’s how the website describes the concept:

James of James Island brings a chef driven food first menu to the island. Its eclectic food vibe represents American cuisine at its best. Freshest ingredients are sourced as locally as possible. James uses classic old world methods that always yield the essence of the food.

According to the website, James Restaurant is open Tuesday through Thursday, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday through Saturday, from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
