“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.“

“I visited Kounter for what was probably the 7th time. Every time has been great, usually dinner. This time, I took my daughter for a brunch date Sunday and it was amazing! I had the Old Town (something?). It included a variety of things like a fried rib, grits, eggs, bacon, potatoes and a biscuit. The potatoes and the ribs were out of this world! My daughter gobbled down the kids waffle. She requested Waffle House but I really wanted Kounter! Also, I had a Bloody Maria (tequila) and it was outstanding. Our server Skylar was very helpful in making recommendations, too.If you’ve never been, try it out! Friendly staff, clean environment and the food is the best!“

“Everything about Cibcibi is wonderful. Their food is inventive and delicious. For vegetarians, I highly recommend the Jasmine Rice bowl with Brussle Sprouts in place of the protein. Their impossible sandwiches are also fabulous.Vegetarian options: Jasmine rice bowl with brussels instead of protein, impossible meat options“

“A piece of Rock Hill history with fun cafe atmosphere with plenty of memorabilia to enjoy! Great prices on food, great table service and warm, welcoming staff. I love the double Big Ben burger ?, the cheese melts perfectly into a huge juicy burger. The fries and onion rings are a must try!“

“We found this gem after a fundraiser and I love it! It was full because it was prom so we ordered take out. The 24 hour braised short ribs with risotto did NOT DISAPPOINT!!! We’re going to make a trip back to Rock Hill just to sit and eat.“

“We drove from Charlotte to try the famous hot dogs here. They were really good and they’ll even cook the fries extra crispy if you want. The best thing about Ebenezer Grill is the people. Every single person was so friendly and welcoming and they seemed genuinely happy to have us “

“This restaurant is a diamond in the ruff.. we stopped on our way home to Pittsburgh PA the food was great the service was over the top. The owners went out of their way to welcome us. You just can’t fine family restaurants like this anymore. Next time in Rock Hill treat yourself to a great experience and food.Thank “

“Great place to stop off and get some breakfast. Took the family here on a long road trip and were greeted with excellent service, great food, and probably the best cup of coffee I had on our whole road trip.One thing I caution against is the bathrooms were a little sketchy, but we didn't come here for that.“

“First time customer, waitress was friendly but had to ask other waitresses to find her to place our order , drink refills and to pay the bill. We both ordered burgers that were good but came out room temperature. Prices were very fair. Willing to try again but customer service really needs some attention.“

“A very nice place for a pleasant experience of “local fare” at an exit off I-77…really unexpected, since it is surrounded by national franchise fast food restaurants… it is an experience that provides a taste of real “Southern cooking” in a small, personal venue. Not fancy, just good food.“

“The food the service the chef the bartender or server all were incredible. I just can't say enough passionate stuff about this place. Once you come here you'll be hooked. Outstanding service outstanding cuisine a Chef with a real “

“Monte Cristo was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Onion rings were top notch, as was my wife’s patty melt. Bartender Brandi is first rate. They could use a low carb beer option not made by Anheuser Busch. Plenty of parking and conveniently located.“

“Hadn't been here in a long time so we decided to stop by since we were back in the area. They've added a drive thru in the post COVID era but aren't necessarily equipped to handle both dine in and carry out orders efficiently... the wait time for our food was a little long. I ordered cheese grits, one egg, toast, and hashbrowns and everything was good except the hashbrowns (too crispy). Customer service was great and it was nice to see there was still some good down home southern hospitality among the customers dining together.“

“We tried this establishment this week and we wanted to give it 5 stars, but couldn’t. Positive notes: waitress was excellent! Appetizer was very good. Could be a little hotter, my plate was great, but could have been a little bigger on the fish portion: wife’s plate was not good. We will return an give it another try in the “

“I ordered takeout for our family of four. The food was hot and tasted great. We tried out the bloomin onion for the first time, and it was amazing. The sauce had a little kick, which made it even better. I love their bbq sandwiches and cheese balls. Overall, all the food was great, and we will be back!“

“Stopped for lunch on the way up to the Charlotte airport. Sat on the balcony/patio on the third floor, overlooking the river. The restaurant is in a cool spot, in a cool building. Our servers were pleasant, helpful and attentive. The food was all very good. The shrimp and grits and the chicken sandwich were the best of the items we ordered.“

“We have a wonderful experience at Nishie G's. We used the Olive Tree Room for our meeting, then had the great and caring staff prepare and serve a delicious breakfast. I highly recommend this restaurant. If you have a need to meet with an event they have a nice venue and unbelievably good food.“

“We just picked this place off the list of restaurants in Lancaster. It was a great choice. The staff is super friendly and kept our drinks refilled and the used plates cleared. We chose to eat from the buffet but you can order off a menu if you would prefer. The buffet food was hot and fresh, except for the dinner rolls. The one I tried was hard but that was my only complaint and I'm ok with that . The restaurant was very clean. The dessert bar had a wide variety, I recommend the apple pie with ice cream.“

“Nice local spot. Found it because I'm new to the area it is shows on Marriott Bonvoy eat and upside. Chill vibe and the food has been delicious. One star removed due to the cheese sticks. While they taste good definitely on the smaller side for the price in comparison. Even Arby's has bigger ones. Just opinion. Will be back here often though as they are friendly with great service“

“HUGE shout out to Old Town in Rock Hill. We had our wedding reception there last night. When I say no food came out cold, no drink was left empty, no detail for the dances or dinner was missed...it would be an understatement. They absolutely killed it, especially given the fact that there were 40 of us. 10/10“

“Ariel has got to be THE best waitress you could ever get. Amazing personality, so attentive and just such a delight. She made my kids feel seen and special (Clone her and put her at every location) and the food was fabulous. I had steak with fried shrimp, kids had chicken and broccoli pasta and the kids shrimp. Hubby had the biggest cheesiest burger I’ve ever seen.!!“

“Susie's has been in RH for a long time! Still owned & operated by the cutest mom & pop couple for many years. They just celebrated their 40th anniversary and had orchids & flowers everywhere. Congrats They are so nice & welcoming. I remember coming to Susie's with my mom when I grew up here. They have great breakfast & lunch that will be quick to fit in on your break. And it won't cost ya an arm & a leg to feed your whole family! You can't go wrong w the southern lunch of "pick ur own meat & 2/3 vegetable plate". With also some Asian dishes lk noodles & yummy honey sesame chicken. The hibachi plates though are my favorite, sooo flavorful & yummy. I always get the shrimp & steak or chicken & steak plate. ?Parking: The parking area is kind of hard to go in if your coming dwn Main Street from the Fountain Park side. You will have to turn left before the light at the end of the road lk your going into the Ace Hardware parking lot. The parking lots connect 2gthr so just drive straight into Susie's parking. If your coming dwn Main Street( the direction in front of the Walgreens & Food Lion) you'll take the fork right before the light and the building is on the right.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes with handicap parking spots in front“

“My family loves Another Broken Egg! Amazing food & great energy. Every time i go they treat us like family. The staff were friendly & the wait was short. It’s definitely my favorite breakfast spot. There are so many different options and they are all soooo good. If you’re a foodie you should check out this place. ?“

“My friend asked to stop by the drive thru.The young lady who served us at the window was unexpectedly nice. Our food was delivered correctly. Everything was delicious. The only thing that bothered me is that I paid $14 for my sandwich and baked potatoes and when I asked for butter and arrived home, I discovered the small butter container they gave me was just vegetable oil, palm oil, corn syrup and preservatives. I was super disappointed, to pay that much and not get actual cow butter but a really toxic combination of oils.That's really not normal or acceptable for me personally. To me, it's irrelevant if I'm in The South. Cheap, bad food shouldn't be served alongside good quality, especially when you charge that much. If you're going to charge someone that much for fast food, the least you can do is offer refrigerated butter, it's not difficult to keep small frozen containers and it melts quickly when you use it over the baked potato. With how much you charge and the cheap bread you serve the quality meat on, I'm sure the company can afford tiny servings of real butter. I feel like I was lied to and tricked. I should have read the package but I was too hungry. I get really sick when I've waited too long to eat. It ruined my potato and made it greasy not creamy. I didn't realize until after it had melted weirdly what was written on the label. Please offer better ingredients. Thanks.To the customers, please just use butter at home instead of ingesting the toxic imitation butter they hand out. How has this become a norm here? And, how they don't feel the need to let people know that they only have butter substitutes to go, is beyond me... I'm disappointed how they normalize us just being handed cheap toxic food to "complement" the actual fresh quality food.“

“My father and I ate lunch here a couple of months ago, but I had forgotten to write a review. Anyways, we went at a slow time (weekend day, Saturday I think) around 12:30. I got the fettuccine alfredo with chicken and that was surprisingly good even for being a tavern restaurant. My father got the angus cheeseburger wrap and he thought it was good. There was one server there serving the whole restaurant and she didn’t even feel the need to write down our order to remember it. The restaurant was very clean and we had a great experience overall!“

“I’ve been going to this place since the beginning of spring 2023. Love the food there, I’m a burger guy. Love the atmosphere. But most of all, love the people there. They treat you well. They know you by name. Love the vibe there. Sometimes I just go there to be uplifted.“

“Food was excellent! Server was super friendly & did a great job! Prices were reasonable & good portions. The only down side was there was a very loud group of people on the bar side who were cursing a lot. Not so great for families, but the other side of the restaurant was pretty quiet, so next time we will sit on that side. No biggie! Will stop in to eat here next time we are in Rock Hill!“

“If you are looking for good wings in Rock Hill I'd recommend giving Rock City Tavern a try. They got my take out order exactly right (I like them crispy) and they were friendly, and fast. Wings were large and flavors were on point. I'll definitely order wings from them again. Also want to try some of the rest of their menu based on how good the wings were.“

“Staying here for a wedding. Imani was the bartender/waitress/hostess/educational savant! One of the best dining/drinking experiences I have had in years. Would absolutely recommend this spot for anyone in the area. Make sure Imani is working and you will not regret it. Hands down, great time!“

“Chicken King has the best fried chicken around. Dino is one of the most gracious and giving people I have ever met. He has a variety of food to offer, and our family has never gotten anything that we did not love from here. His restaurant is small, and many times is overlooked but don't pass it by or you will be sorry. Dino is creative and loves to come up with different dishes. His Greek dishes are amazing and his catering with Melanie are top notch. He and Melanie catered my son's wedding and the food and presentation received rave reviews. I recommend calling them for your catering needs. Try his onion rings, Dinomyte, and his Greek pasta just to name a few. We eat there at least once a week. Great group of people!!!!“

“I absolutely love this place. I get the chicken salad, and the staff here have been wonderful on the multiple occasions I've come by. They are always very friendly and offer quick service.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair friendly parking in front row.“

“Went in for a bday dinner for my father. The menu was limited at the time bc they are in the process of updating it, but there were still plenty of options available. Dining area was large and clean. Food was good, and not bad priced. I have gone to the one in Indian Land several times, but this wasy first time to the Rock Hill location, I would recommend both.Kid-friendliness: There is a nice kids menu available“

“I just discovered town tavern today and I'm so glad I did. I got 10 wings for $7.50, which is way cheaper than any place I've seen in a long time. But the best part was they were the best wings I think I've ever had! I got all flats which cost me $1.75 extra but it was worth it. They were very meaty cooked perfectly and the sauce was outstanding. My wife got a fried chicken salad that she raved about but when she tried one of my wings she like that better. The waitress, Maria was very good and we were overall quite happy. This is my new wing place. If you like wings and you haven't tried it you need to. There are plenty of other things on the menu and I wonder if I'll ever try any of them because the wings are so good.They have a rotation of draft beers and you can get flights.“

“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.“
