If you ever find yourself near Kernersville, SC, make it a point to stop at The Plaza restaurant…a true hidden gem that delivers an experience far beyond what you’d expect. From the moment we walked in, we were met with warmth and professionalism, and that only grew stronger as the visit continued.
Let’s talk about the food. Everything we ordered was excellent. The French toast was perfectly sweet with a delicate texture that still felt hearty and satisfying. The gyro was absolutely loaded…overflowing with fresh toppings and meat that was seasoned and cooked to perfection. It was almost too big to handle, but every bite was worth it. And the baked steak? Succulent, tender, and packed with deep, rich flavor that had us savoring each bite.
But the real star of our visit was the service. Brandy, our server, went above and beyond. She was incredibly attentive and made us feel like we were the only table in the place. We asked a lot of questions, and she answered each one with enthusiasm and genuine care. It was clear she loves her job, and that positive energy made the experience even more enjoyable.
The Plaza is comfort food done right, with service that shines. We’ll be back!

Traditional American food and some Greek dishes. The food and service are always fantastic. The portions are very generous. The furnishings could use an update, but we don't go there to sit and visit so that doesn't matter to us. 😉

We usually go in the early afternoon. There is one lady working. She is wonderful. We have really enjoyed the food.

I had the fried chicken livers. Plain. They had no flavor. Green beans had no seasonings. Fried okra was delicious. Waitress was very friendly. Restaurant was clean. I just wanted real food so I chose this restaurant. Not likely to come back. Gave a 4 star to be fair.

I believe this restaurant must be better known for its lunches and dinners, and not its breakfasts. We had breakfast here this morning. Fried eggs were fried eggs, but the grits were undercooked and lukewarm. The bacon brand was overly salty too. The simple waffle was just a waffle, but the obviously pre-made (pre-cooked too?) sausage patties were a great disappointment in taste quality, were hard, and overly cooked/preheated or over-warmed too long. At the prices being charged here I would expect excellent quality food be served. Speaking of service...don't let the staff sit you near the kitchen entrance as the waitstaff takes no care in bussing the dishes and loudly tosses those dishes into the to-be-washed bin. All in all, a disappointing breakfast experience. Perhaps they do better with the food quality of the non-breakfast dishes.

The food was excellent. The waitress was very nice and checked on us frequently. The price was good. My wife loved her spaghetti, and my burger was huge and was prepared exactly like I asked for(I am picky as to the way I like it prepared, lol). The burger was huge. Thank you.

A good restaurant with comfort food at reasonable prices. A little dated for decor, but fine with me. The food is hot and fresh.
