“This is a private bar establishment. Wonderful folk. I go for Karaoke Connection night. I use to be a regular at all the old locations following Karaoke Connection DJ Bernie since I met their whole family years ago. The owner is wonderful. Always has a smile for his customers. Thank you guys for being able to do the membership that late at night and having to leave last time. Thank you so much for always being kind even if someone doesn't do so great. Bless you guys for letting me raise my heart in song. The photo is Bernie and Melissa at a costume party.“

“Our group of 6 met At Ruby Tuesday met as a mini reunion and to wish one of our group safe travels as she moves to another state. The staff welcomed us and quickly set up a table for 6. They were all very pleasant, friendly and accomomcodating. One member of our party was a little late. Our server, Heather, was absolutely wonderful. She brought out menus, took our order for beverages and said it was no problem if our friend was going to be late. We ordered appetizers as we waited. Several other groups came in the area where we were sitting and Heather made sure whe was attentive to each group and quickly took their orders. when our friend arrived Heather quickly cleared the appetizers, got all of our orders, and refilled our water and/of other beverages. Our meals arrived shortly. Everything each of us ordered was attractively presented and tasted delicious and was served in a timely manner. Heather took our group photo for us for a memory of our very special occasion! We appreciate all of the staff we encountered on our visit. All of them were very courteous and willing to answer our questions and make us fell welcome. We never felt rushed. We would recommend this Ruby Tuesday to anyone. Everything was looking for a delicious meal in a friendly, relaxing environment. Good location and environment Excellent food and service Variety of choices and reasonable prices“

“Have lived in Lancaster for about 16 months and never even gave this place a thought. My wife and I went last night and were quite pleased. Even though they were busy, we were seated quickly and our server came right over. I had the hamburger steak and my wife had the Alfredo with shrimp. While we had a bit of a wait for our food, it was definitely worth it. It was obvious the food was cooked to order and done exactly as we had requested. It was tasty and plenty of it. The service was quick and all the staff was pleasant and helpful. Our waitress was excellent making sure we were satisfied and had everything we needed. The atmosphere was that of a family restaurant, and was clean and pleasant, while the prices were very reasonable. I would recommend them to any one in the area. Will definitely visit again as we were very pleased.“

“I love going here. The food is good and the beer is always cold. I am giving the food 4 stars simply because they took away the load bake potatoes I loved. However, they did make up for it with their street corn. Some of their drinks did change. They used to have this really good creamy alcohol drink. but they stopped making them. The beer is great though.“

“Hi! My name is Teresa. My husband Jeff and I are from Woodruff, SC. We love to take Saturday drives. Today, Jeff googled “hot wings” in Rock Hill and we ended up at Shawkers Grill. At first we weren’t sure what we were getting into but we decided to take a chance. I’m so glad we did!!!! We ordered the chicken wings (med sauce), Buffalo Oysters and an order of fries. Everything was freshly cooked and delicious!!! The lady/manager who waited on us (didn’t get her name) was very sweet and took very good care of us!!! My husband told her if we lived closer we would have a new wing place. If you haven’t tried this place you are missing out.“

“This place is directly across from Winthrop University and has ample parking, great vibe and nice sized outdoor patio. They have a bunch of tv's and tons of seating.

I went with the sunrise burger and it was huge. The burger was really good. I also went with the onion straws as a side which were good. However the Cajun fries my boys got as sides were so much better. Don't forget to ask for hobo sauce and the honey mustard. Both are ?! I will definitely be back to sit on the patio and try some new menu items.

Kid-friendliness: Perfect for kids“

We have passed this building dozens of times, but never looked to see that it is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Rock Hill! Solid breakfast served fresh and hot. The biscuits were excellent. Made to feel welcome from the minute we walked in the door. We can’t wait to go back for a lunch special!“

“Cool, down-to-Earth customers at the bar who are fun to hang with. The kitchen gets SEVERELY overwhelmed sometimes and it's basically impossible to get food. Still a place I'd recommend.“

“I would recommend Jomar's any time. I don't eat buffets with this restaurant as my only excepting. The gloves and sanitizer is a major plus. Now the food is amazing especially for a buffet. Homestyle quality. One of my favorite places to eat when I'm in Lancaster S.C.“

“We decided to take our picky eating grandchildren here because children 12 & under eat free from 4 till 10pm with the purchase of adult dinner according to several websites advertising different restaurants with specials or kids eat free nights.
When we got the bill, they had charged for all meals even the kiddos. I asked about the kids eat free & was told the Rock Hill location did not participate in that particular special. But apologized for the misunderstanding. Something about 3rd party advertising being responsible
First time we had taken the grandchildren to IHOP only did because of the money savings. But surprise not so.
3 kids meals & 2 adult 55+ dinners right at $50
It was good. We all had plates full & the kiddos eat everything on their plates. Fruit was fresh & they had a small cup of chocolate syrup for dipping.
First time tried to take advantage of a restaurant where the kids eat free & it didn't work.
Maybe we will go back because now we know they will eat somewhere other than McDonald's.“

“We had yet another delicious breakfast here, and our server Sabrina was amazing. We had 4 in our party, each with some very specific requests, and she was so attentive to each person, efficient with every detail, and quite entertaining! Just a delightful person, making our breakfast experience even more enjoyable.“

“The best chicken, burgers, and fries around Rock Hill. Better than Empire, Wing Stop, and Wing King. It will be a small wait as everything is cooked fresh and worth the cost of doing business. The staff is friendly and makes you feel at home. You have got to stop in and place an order today...FIRE!!!“

“I was at Froendlys in Rock Hill for the first time last night. The band Rumor Mill I had heard before they actually played at a wedding I was at. They are amazing. Will go every time they are there.The atmosphere was great. I was actually a little sad when I went there. So my boyfriend suggested we go. I can’t say how much this meant. The way they mad me feel.Must must go.“

“Quite possibly the best southern vegetable side dishes in South Charlotte/Rock Hill/Fort Mill! An amazing selection, lots of options, and all were delicious. The sides alone are worth the trip!“

“I love HBH! I hadn't been to get a sandwich in many years, so went today. The sandwich was good, unfortunately not like I had before....the quantity of ham has been greatly reduced over the years apparently. I got it on the wheat bread instead of the croissant.“
