“Sunnyside Cafe was the perfect place for my daughters baby shower today! Excellent food, quality service & Crystal was amazing to work with! My 20 guests had a wonderful experience and I highly recommend SunnySide!”

“Had to try a pizza place! We ordered the number 5… awesome Staff recommended the hot sauce (GET IT!) We will be back ! Pizza great , staff even better!”

“If you're looking for old style dive this is your place. The food was great, service was also great. The only downfall is not a lot of seating, but don't let that stop you from going.”

“Best pizza in the area. Not cheap but well worth the price.”

“Nice people, nice layout. Great beer!”

“I have been to Greece. I have been to Italy. I have eaten at Amalfi in Las Vegas. I can say confidently that this beef stew is the best thing I’ve had. The only words adequate to describe this food are those of the Prophet David: “O taste and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 38:4).”

“I love eating here. The pizza is so good and aways fresh. Destiny was my server and she is awesome! Ask for her and be prepared to be amazed! Destiny is awesome!”

“I already thought that Handel’s make some of the best ice cream I’ve tasted, but today Handel’s lived up to its family friendly, good customer reputation in a big way. A young counter person made a minor understandable order taking error. When she fixed her mistake, she did it pleasantly and with a smile before refusing the additional payment that was due. In fact, she declined my offer of payment several times.
I live at a bit of a distance, but I am going to be a loyal, repeat customer.”

“Very good ice cream! The price was also surprising. We got 2 cups with 1 scoop, 1 cone with 1 scoop and a regular milkshake for $15. They have lots of tables outside to sit at. There is also a nicely mowed hill which people were also sitting on.

Parking: There is a big parking lot right by it.”

“In town visiting and stopped by for a treat! Absolutely the best ice cream! They have something for everyone! Andee and her staff are AWESOME! If you’re in Clemson stop by and support local! Trust me you won’t be disappointed!”

“If you are considering mini-cupcakes for your next event, DO IT! We had Pound Cake Man’s cake and cupcakes for our wedding and it was great! We had five flavors of mini-cupcakes so our guests could try multiple flavors, and they made a special pound cake for us to cut. We were unable to have the food truck at the venue due to it being a Clemson home game weekend, but Pound Cake Man was incredibly easy to work with for both ordering and coordinating pick-up. We received such great feedback on all the flavors, and everyone seemed to enjoy how unique it was to have pound cake at our wedding. Highly recommend Pound Cake Man! (Event Date 10.22.22)”

“Alright, buckle up for a dad-tastic review of Groucho's Deli in Clemson, SC!When I first strolled into Groucho's Deli, I thought I'd accidentally walked onto the set of a feel-good American sitcom. The atmosphere was as warm as the toasties they serve, and let me tell you, those sandwiches are hotter than a Clemson tailgate in August!Now, I'm a simple man. I like my football games loud, my dad jokes corny, and my deli meats thicker than a Clemson playbook. And Groucho's? They deliver on all fronts. Their STP Dipper is the real MVP – it's stacked higher than Dabo Sweeney's list of accolades, and just as impressive.Speaking of impressive, you know what's not a joke? The flavor explosion in their Apollo Dipper. It's like a touchdown dance in your mouth – and folks, it scores every time. I mean, if a sandwich could win a championship ring, this one would have a hand full of them.The staff at Groucho's are friendlier than a neighbor with a boat and more helpful than a pocket on a shirt. They treat you like family, which is great because, at my age, I need all the relatives I can remember!And let's talk about the décor. It's got more orange than a Florida orange grove at sunrise. I half-expected the Tiger mascot to come waltzing through the door asking for a pickle on the side.Now, I'm not saying I come here often, but let's just say I've got a usual spot, and it's not on the couch for game day. It's right here at Groucho's, where every bite feels like a win against our rivals.In conclusion, if you're looking for a place that combines the charm of Clemson with the comfort of a dad joke that lands just right, then Groucho's Deli is your spot. It's the kind of place that makes you want to settle in, crack a dad joke or two, and savor every bite like it's the last play of the game. Go Tigers, and go Groucho's! ??”

“I highly recommend Sully's! A very unique place to eat in the heart of Downtown Clemson. The warm steamed bagels with piles of your favorite meats just melt in your mouth”

“Traveling from Kansas our first visit and the tuna appetizer was our first fresh tuna. It did not disappoint! Excellent filet cooked perfectly. A must stop! Perfect service and friendly plus on top of our needs for food allergies.”

“Best bartenders in town. Pretty much the only bar for adults in Clemson.”

“I love this restaurant !!! The food is so delicious and they have so many choices !! My go to is the Carnitas and they are the best I ever had !!!”

“Valentine’s dinner was great! Fabric table cloths, candles and everyone dressed nicely for the occasion! It’s a tradition for us. It’s great every year!”

“The Fried Green Tomatoes were so good - very different from anything I’ve had before. Loved how they were sliced, cooked, and paired with both sauces. Then had the Grilled Chicken Caesar salad. I LOVED how they grilled some of the Romaine lettuce and mixed it in with the cold greens! I really loved about this place! My daughter ordered a cheeseburger and she loved it, as well, with the truffle fries. HIGHLY Recommend this cute place!”

“So amazing my first time there and staff were so wonderful food was delish and fresh ! I will be bak very soon! Thank u !”

“Staff were very friendly. Burgers were excellent.”

“Stopped in today on our visit to Clemson. Excellent coffee and great service!”

“Oh my, this little place is very good. The bar staff is friendly and attentive, the menu is great for a wine bar.
Their kitchen is apparently ready and "on the ball".
We had their delicious Hummus, Lobster ravioli, mushroom ravioli too.
Very impressed!”

“The place is nice and fun, we were seated at a table but then we were asked by someone else to stand up again because it was taken. We didn't have a new table assigned and had to stand for most of the time. But we had a good time there.”

“We came in Friday November 25 at 6:30ish. Whoever was working the counter and running food was amazing! We have four crazy kids and they got the order perfect. Very helpful, very yummy. Will definitely come back.”

“We sat at the bar and enjoyed our conversation with the clemson Senior, Lauren. The food and drinks were superb.”

“Best Food Service Ever (just a little expensive but GOOD valuable customer service)!!!! I recommend anyone to go there rather than all Starbucks shops oncampus. Because, I’d tried to pay cash for the first time there, but they said no, and I did the same thing for this place and they were so humble and nice that they gave everything I’d needed for FREE ?”

“Absolutely delicious, fresh food! Scratch made with quality ingredients and an awesome staff as well! A MUST try!”

“Went here for my birthday. Menu has something for everyone. The sushi was so fresh! We all loved our meals. This is definitely a place I’d return! Thank you all for the kind service and friendly atmosphere!”

“As a former student athlete, I would have spent all my little Pell Grant money at this place! ? fortunately this place was not around when I attended Clemson!If you are looking for something lite give this place a chance.”

“We were so pleased with our room and the service! Very impressive and will definitely keep recommending to others as I already did in a huge vacation photo pic dump! Thanks so much! ps Uber is readily available so no worries about transportation!”

“We visited during the summer, so there wasn't much activity. The student center was conveniently located on campus with nice areas for studying and meeting with other students. We enjoyed the ice cream and smoothie shop, and we LOVED that they sold the special, most delicious, Clemson Blue Cheese.”

“Great college bar! Must come here.”

“This is the Starbucks in Ingles, not those slackers downtown. I will honestly not go back there after going numerous times and always having to have my drink re-made. I <3 this one though. ;)”

“Walked in to get our to go order I was early young guy says it’ll be about 10-15 minutes very!!!!! So I sat down and waited I was looking around the place was so clean!!!!!! Got home it was just liked we ordered it!!!!!”

“The employees are super friendly and helpful The hot dogs are delicious, Thanks.”

“Anita is an absolutely fabulous owner. She takes care of her workers and make sure all of the guests have the best possible eating experience. I highly recommend coming to this restaurant.

Vegetarian options: We have a black bean patty, avocado, spinach tortilla wraps, and plenty of veggies!!

Kid-friendliness: Kids get an m n m token free with meal!”

“I mean the service is good enough anywhere I have went, but the food and shakes are my favorite "fast food" of anywhere I have ever been ever. JUST GO and get a oreo milkshake!! Service could always use work in a college town. But that's ok.”

“Been coming here since it opened, amazing staff, great food, and a simple but appealing setup. Texas Dan has made the experience better. Would recommend 4.5 times out of 5.”

“Food is always good and the service is always great”

“So glad this place is still here!!! Used to come all the time when I was at Clemson! Best calzone I’ve had in a looooong time and still a family setting like no other!! Highly recommend!!!”

“This is a place where you only come because the food is decent, not great, just decent. It seems they have the interior, of the restaurant, so you don't want to sit down to eat. When you walk in, you're greeted with stares from the customers and a, "Hi, can I help you? Did you place an order?" From the little lady from the counter. You can see how hard they work to deliver, fresh, meals to their customers. They do stride for the best outcome in each aspect of their services. I do recommend this quaint little Asian restaurant.”

“Canes has mastered the trio of simplicity, efficiency, and tasty, and this location is no different. Located within the Clemson University campus and dining halls, this Canes is great spot to get a quick fix of chicken tenders and fries. The staff was friendly, order was received quickly, and the food came out hot and fresh. Crispy juicy chicken tenders and hot fries with a crispy outside and soft interior, topped off with the addicting canes sauce. I used to be a Zaxbys guy but Canes has taken the throne as far as consistency and quality.”

“Tiger Town Tavern is an absolute gem! This iconic spot has a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere that makes it the perfect place to hang out with friends. The drinks are always cold, the service is friendly, and the food hits the spot every time. Whether you're there to watch a game, grab a bite, or just enjoy the lively crowd, it never disappoints. The nostalgic, college-town vibe adds to the charm, making it a must-visit when you're in the area.”

“Absolutely the very best Burger King we have ever been to. Replace the order through the drive-thru, they took our money at the window, and asked us to park around the front of the building. The food was brought out to us. It was correct, and I always have to ask for special considerations on different things, and it was hot. in every way it was perfect. Kudos to them for excellent food and service”

“Idk what the smell was but it was awful as soon as you walk in. Service was great & the food was okay. I just couldn’t get past the smell of the restaurant. Really ruined the whole experience.”

“It’s Starbucks so of course the drinks are good but the staff here is next level! Every time I stop to get a coffee, they make my morning just a bit better. I truly appreciate the genuine kindness of the whole staff here”

“Great food, better service.”

“The girl that served me obviously doesn’t pay her own way.
1. No napkins
2. No spoon for habanero sauce
3. 25min no service and had others had to take food & drink order.
4. Billed me wrong for drink orders and didn’t know how to print itemized receipt
5. Didn’t give me choice of flour or corn tortillas
6. Didn’t care
7. Couldn’t get beer tap working
Smiling and looking good doesn’t make up for bad service and is not great for business.”

“Excellent quality sashimi. Plus, the eel bowl was very much worth the trip, and not to mention, the "sushi"-style rice was prepared/served exactly as it should! The miso soup was not too salty -- this is a common error with others. And, my waitress, Bella, was exceptionally attentive. Kudos to her. (Note: My first visit here was on a Friday, at lunch, upon opening... the place was practically packed within 30 minutes.)”

“A lot of people put up false reviews for this place because they decided they did not want guns in their bar. They did it with a snarky sign and people got butt hurt.So here's the lo down on how they are as a restaurant and bar, and not an opinion on the extent to which 2nd amendment rights apply to private businesses:Their beer selection is the best in Clemson. Tons of cans and bottles and lots of taps. They get some really great craft stuff in. Plus this year they started the 100 beer club where you get a shirt and a plaque if you drink 100 beers there. The bartenders love their beer and make some great recommendations.Their food is bar food but they definitely step it up. Most things always have a little something something that takes it up a notch above standard bar food. Also their weekly specials are very good.Monday - $1 tacos,Tuesday - $5.75 large pizza,Wed -. $6.75/dzn wings,Thursday - burger night (<$6 for house burger and fries or tots, only $1 for speciality burger.They also have an upstairs and downstairs patio. Pups are allowed on the lower patio Mon to Thurs till 8.Update:Food is not as good as it used to be but it's decent bar food. Still a great selection of beer and staff is helpful. Two pool tables downstairs.”

“Awesome customer service! Food is always fresh and delicious :)”

“This is our first time coming here & we’ll definitely be back! Not only is it awesome, the food great but also a sweet customer paid everyone’s tabs!!!! And free WiFi! Everyone’s so friendly here! Feels like home/family!”

“Amazing service, the establishment has such a welcoming outside environment which is perfect for having a drink and catching up with friends. They really display their love for the Clemson tigers through their color scheme, murals, and events happening weekly. Wouldn’t want to relax during the day or enjoy my night anywhere else!”

“Super yummy coffee! The turtle is my favorite, hot and iced. Great atmosphere.”

“I had a lovely birthday dinner here! The restaurant is in a charming historic building. We had great and attentive service! We plan on coming back to try some other delicious looking dishes that peaked our interest. Not going to lie.. the Crab Cake app was our favorite and I really want to come back to try their She Crab Soup.”

“Always a great place before or after a Clemson event.”

“Are you hungry? Do you like tasty food? Want it quick and in ample portions for a respectable price? THIS IS YOUR PLACE. You don't come here for a snazzy, trendy dining room. You come here to grub. It's just plain good, and they're so friendly, consistent and did I mention fast?? Oh and also: they have a PARKING LOT, which is something many Clemson restaurants can't brag about. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Strawberry lemonade was a refreshing choice on a hot day. Also, my dog liked his first puppoccino.”

“I placed a take out order with them last night with 6 plates for family. They had very speedy service and the order was ready within 15 minutes. The prices for each meal was very fair because for 6 plates we paid around $70 (including tip). The portions of the food was huge. I had got the Texans Nachos and they were so yummy!! The rest of my family enjoyed their meal as well! I definitely recommend eating here!!”

“We had a great meal at Charleston Sports Pub. The burger, quesadillas and salads were really good. Our server, Dylan, provided great service and was very personable. It’s a great atmosphere here. We’ll be back.”
