About Us

A Local Favorite with a Chef’s Touch

Locally owned and rooted in Johns Island, KISS Cafe is the creation of husband and wife Executive Chef Tim Wickey and Chief Cheerleader Leslie Mastranunzio. Together, they bring passion, flavor, and community spirit to every plate. At KISS Cafe, we believe fantastic food starts with good intentions. That’s why our dishes are made fresh to order in an open kitchen that puts quality on full display. We source local ingredients whenever possible, support Charleston-area farms and makers, and serve the kind of authentic, feel-good food that reflects the community we love.

We are visiting from Florida and our daughter recommended this amazing Cafe. Staff was friendly, service was great. The food was so good. I had the grits bowl and i highly recommend. Husband had the simply eggs and diner potatoes and he was very pleased. We will be back when we visit next time. Thanks guys for a great breakfast.

Delicious entrees! Biscuit and gravy creamy and well balanced. Shrimp n grits flavorful and spiced well, grist size larger than normal, texture spot on. Breakfast sandwich good. Hot chocolate and cover average diner fare, but don't let that stop you from eating here. Friendly waitstaff, very dog friendly.
Anna Baird-Hensley
Love every dish we've had. Always beautifully plated, temp perfect, savory and the friendliest staff! The Chef came out and met us! Try the hash, biscuits and gravy w/ two medium eggs on it. The subtle tarragon sets off the flavor. Also the steak sandwich with Asian pear and pomegranate aioli!!! Seriously this chef-the best. My #1 best restaurant.
