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

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

“We went to Calhoun Corners for our anniversary dinner and it was absolutely incredible. The service was phenomenal from start to finish. Our waitress, who had only been in the area for two weeks, was so kind and friendly, offering great suggestions throughout the night.

We started with the escargot and stuffed mushrooms, both were delicious, and the fresh, hot, buttery bread was irresistible. For our main courses, I had the beef Wellington, perfectly cooked and flavorful, while my wife’s favorite of the night was the prime rib. Everything was prepared beautifully and tasted amazing.

Our waitress even took the time to give us other dining recommendations in the area since we are visiting. Overall, it was an unforgettable anniversary dinner and we can’t recommend Calhoun Corners enough.“

“Simply magical! The food …a work of art. An experience I will be back for again and again. ♥️🦋“

“Always a nice meal here. Our server Hali was very attentive and helpful. We skipped apps, and our salads were fresh and tasty. My 7oz filet was cooked perfectly (blue, the way I like it, and few restaurants get it right). The risotto was creamy and the broccoli rabe was nicely seasoned and not over cooked. The Cab Franc paired perfectly with my entree. My partner got the swordfish that was also perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The chips and guacamole really didn’t add anything to the dish, however, but it was fine. The dry Riesling was a nice pairing with this. We were seated not too far from the bar area. We forgot about Jazz on the Ally Thursday nights so it was packed and the bar area started to become very loud. Unfortunately there are quite a few privileged people in this area that feel being publicly drunk and obnoxiously loud is acceptable, even in a nicer restaurant. This isn’t the restaurants’ fault but it certainly impacts the quality of the atmosphere. Even Hali offered us a free dessert to make up for the interruption it caused, but we paid for our desserts anyway. We did suggest that there be automatic sliding doors fitted so that the noise could be contained in the bar area leaving the diners to enjoy their meals. Our desserts were also delightful. We had the banana brûlée and strawberry brûlée. Overall it was a very nice meal with very good service (which is hard to come by in this area).“

“The atmosphere was excellent, the food was great and the portions were large. Prices were very reasonable. Unfortunately our young server was more interested in talking with her fellow servers near the bar than noticing our attempts to get her attention for things we needed. But she was nice when she showed up.“

“Great food and great service!!“

“Casual spot where locals and travelers hang out. Love the karaoke.“

“Very nice little spot on the water. The staff was amazing making sure our large party was seated and served promptly. Very good fried pickles. Selection was a little minimal but no complaints on what we ordered. Will definitely go back when in the area.“

“This review is to brag on Will, who is the bartender at our Seneca location. Every time we go in, he is very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive in every good way possible. He looks out for all your needs and never hesitates to be top notch! Great waiter and couldn't be happier with our service when we see him there to serve us when we walk in👍🙌“

“The Philly cheesesteaks that we ordered we're not made the way we expected them to be made. It was definitely a different take on a Philly cheese steak I'd call it a cheese steak but I don't think that if you serve this in Philadelphia they let you walk out. Maybe a southern style cheese sandwich or something different other than “
