It’s a LongWay to theTop

But Page’s Okra Grill Got There

Y

ou could probably stop in at

Page’s Okra Grill at opening time in the

morning, stay there most of the day and sample

a taste of why the readers of

Mount Pleasant

Magazine

rated the local restaurant among the best in

seven separate categories.

Page’s, a local landmark since 2006, took top honors

in the magazine’s Best of Mount

Pleasant competition for Best

Breakfast, Brunch, Dessert, Restaurant Service and Shrimp

‘n’ Grits. Run by sisters Courtney and Ashleigh Page, the

restaurant claimed second place in two other areas: Best

Fried Chicken and Best Mac ‘n’ Cheese.

The success of the Page sisters, who purchased Billy’s Back

Home Restaurant, changed the name to Page’s Okra Grill and

eventually moved down Coleman Boulevard to their current

location, is based on four factors, according to Courtney: top-

notch customer service, high-quality ingredients, good value

and “an atmosphere that feels like home.”

Hard work doesn’t hurt, of course, and none of the

restaurant’s 108 employees put more of their heart and

soul into the business than the Page sisters. Ashleigh runs

the kitchen, showing up before the sun rises on most days

to bake biscuits from scratch, while Courtney manages the

business, waits on tables, greets customers and even sweeps

the floor, if necessary.

Page’s Okra Grill’s rise to prominence in the East Cooper

restaurant scene wasn’t easy. When the Page sisters purchased

Billy’s, they served only breakfast and lunch. When dinner

hours were added, they soon outgrew their 52-seat capacity,

so they purchased the building that housed Alex’s Restaurant.

“When we bought the building, we worked all day

at Page’s, then came down the street to clean up Alex’s,”

Ashleigh commented.

It’s obvious that all their hard work paid off.
