“best chicken club sandwiches 🥪 great service and hospitality.“

“The Maui burger is incredible!!! Absolutely love it.“

“I was in the restaurant business for 20+ years. This place is absolutely on point. The Alexander's are some of the best folks you will meet and the food is absolutely amazing. This was our first time here and we will make a point to visit again.“

“I learned that if u want something good from a place you have never been all you have to do is to ask the employees their 3 top picks from said restaurant and I promise i have never been disappointed. 🙂 so when I called over the phone and asked that employee their favorite top three, his name was tyler, and he was completely patient with me.Gave me his honest answers, and I let him know I'd be up there shortly.And he said, okay, thank you so respectful. I was as equally happy and surprised to know when I came into the location that tyler said coworkers were just as patient and willing.And eager to share their favorite top 3 of entrees from this place. So I guess long story short the customer service experience & atmosphere is above standard, which is very rare. Nowadays and just wanted to let anyone know that might be questioned. Whether or not they wanted to come here. You won't be disappointed no matter what the service is. Exceptional and the food is exceptional.!!!!“

“We recently had a graduation party for my brother and his girlfriend at Public Well Cafe & Pizza and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish! The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The food was incredible, the atmosphere was welcoming and fun, and they handled our large group so well. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and accommodating, which made the celebration even more special. It’s hard to find a place that makes you feel this taken care of, but Public Well truly delivered. We had such a great experience and made wonderful memories there. Highly recommend for parties, family gatherings, or just a great meal. Thank you to everyone at Public Well for helping make such an important day so special!“

“Celebrated my birthday last nigh food was outstanding as always service superb couldn’t have had a better experience it is this way each time I come I’m never afraid to bring guest as I am sure their experience will be out standing as well I want to commend the manager last night there was a young man that obviously felt entitled and acted inappropriately I sat at the next table and heard his nonsense over nothing and was acted poorly the manager was kind and gracious and handled this situation with such dignity snd class so not only impressed with meal wait staff but management as well LOVE THIS PLACE“

“We are new to Anderson, and our neighbor recommended that we try Earle St Kitchen. When we got there the place was very clean and we were greeted warmly. Our Waitor Silas was very helpful and explained the daily special. It was salmon, that's all my wife had to hear,and she ordered it, I went with the meatloaf. The drinks came quickly and were good. The food came soon after. I was more than impressed, I was blown away. The meatloaf was excellent, the portion was huge, the mashed potatoe fritters were amazing. My wife was over the moon with her salmon. We were impressed with the quality food and generous portions. We ordered the salted caramel cheesecake. You have to try it to believe just how good it is. We feel like we went to a local restaurant, never expecting to have 5 star food and service, at a very reasonable price. Needless to say...We are going back soon.“

“Incredible experience at HipBurger!! Was welcomed by a beautiful and handsome man with a name tag reading “Beau”. As I approached the counter the large white male carefully explained the menu. It tickled my taste buds so much I ordered a large amount. As I was waiting on my order Beau proceeded to be very thorough in cleaning the dining room. He appeared to be cleansing the soda amenities and replenishing the straws and napkins. When my food was ready Beau lovingly brought my delicious food to the table. He was so loving handsome and kind. This beautiful man deserves a raise. Food was also incredibly good and cooked to perfection.
Will definitely be back very very soon!!“

“My order was brought to me wrong. I ordered 2 scramble eggs and a serving of bacon. The eggs were okay but the bacon was totally burned. I cannot believe they brought that bacon to me. They brought my plate with grits, toast and eggs. I did not order grits or toast nor did I eat them. The waitress did take my burned bacon off of my ticket.“

“I am absolutely at a loss for words. I ordered 20 wings and was brought out a pile of burned chicken that can't even be consumed. When I showed the waitress she took them to the manager and the manager said they couldn't do anything because they were not burned. I've been eating here for 30 years and have never been shunned like this“

“I had lunch with a few friends and it was the best experience I’ve had in a long time. Our server, Angela McDowell was awesome! She took our order, didn’t write it down, repeated it back to us perfectly and the food was cooked to perfection! My friends got salmon and I got the filet and every bite was delicious! It was cooked perfectly, medium rare, and the flavor was scrumptious. Every time we go back to that area to shop, we make sure to go to Red Lobster. It did not disappoint! Great service and great food!“

“I don’t typically leave reviews when something is wrong, but I ordered to go food, got home and realized they gave me the wrong side. I called the restaurant to see if I could come back and get the correct side and with no issue the manager said it would be waiting, which it was and threw in an extra cheesecake. Very professional very quick to make amends in that simple gesture will have us coming back sooner than later.“

“Absolutely loved this bagel shop! The bagels and sandwiches are some of the best we’ve had. We have family who were born and raised in New York, and even they were impressed by the bagel combinations and how delicious everything was.

The sandwiches are outstanding as well. You can tell there’s a lot of care that goes into the food. On top of that, the staff were incredibly polite, friendly, and welcoming. Such a great spot with genuinely good food and wonderful service. We’ll definitely be back! 🥯❤“

“My favorite burger by far but the fried onions are the very best I've eaten.“
