Like, believe it or not... the Fish & Chips...“

“We dined in at JJ Curry and Biryani with my daughters, and we had such a great experience! The Mixed Grill was recommended by the owner himself, and let me tell you, it wasssss greattttt! Everything on the platter was flavorful, juicy, and grilled to perfection. You could taste the authentic spices in every bite. My daughters especially loved the Veg Samosas, crispy, hot, and filled with delicious spiced potatoes and peas. As usual, they were perfect. It’s our favorite every time we visit! We also tried the Garlic Naan and Cheese Naan both were fresh, soft, and went so well with the meal. The staff was super kind. Definitely one of our favorite places for Indian food. Highly recommend the Mixed Grill for meat lovers and don’t skip the samosas! will be back for sure.“

“Hands down best food and customer service I’ve experienced in my 46 years! I wish I had paid attention to our server’s name tag so I could call her excellence out in this review. She was a 10 out of 10 for kindness and knowledge of the menu. Treating people with love makes all the difference in the world! Thank you Smashburger for a wonderful experience 🙏🏻“

Kid-friendliness: Somewhat

Wheelchair accessibility: Not sure“

“Healthy choices ,great service and yummy bowls! Love ❤️ poke bros“

“Didn't promise too much. Food was excellent. If anyone wants to rate it lower, please base it on more then one visit and let the waiter know what you didn't like so they can improve. Nothing was wrong with our food. It was delicious. Picked up my food. They are extremely nice!“

“We've been dinning at Beef O Bradys for about 4 years and we can say We've never had a bad experience.The food is delicious the buttermilk chicken tenders, the soft pretzel and my favorite dinner is the grilled chicken with cheese mushrooms and bacon.Service is fabulous 👌“

“Hands down the BEST pizza I’ve had since moving to SC seven years ago! I pass over a half dozen other pizza shops (without shame) on my drive there. A true treat for the whole family. Very difficult not to overeat when visiting Shinano’s.“

“Great buffet and choices... had a sauceless pizza, detroit style, BBQ chicken, supreme, classic pepperoni, Hawaiian, and desert pizzas available.

Cost about 10-12 dollars a person but if you eat enough slices youll make up the price quickly.“

“I ordered over the phone. Took about 10 min for them to prepare my food (I wasn’t far) walked in the restaurant was clean. I ordered orange chicken and fried rice. When I got my food it was very fresh. The chicken was hot and steaming so was the rice. It also had a very good taste. Very impressed. I’ve been to a lot of Chinese food spots and they always miss on quality and flavor. This deserves 5 stars. Everything was fresh and hot.“

“Pleasant atmosphete with plenty of seating.Very courteous no matter who takes the order. Excellent variety of dishes most offer small and larger sizes. Food quality is high! Never a mistake on the order and I get two ample dinners from one small size Moo goo gai pan or broccali beef. 8 minutes from my house doesn't hurt.“

“This Pho Spot is LEGIT – 10/10 Would Recommend!

My buddy and I tried this pho place, and I was seriously impressed. The broth was rich and flavorful, the meat was tender, and the fresh herbs and lime really brightened it up. Everything tasted fresh and well-made.

But what really made the experience awesome was the service. Shoutout to **Casey**—this server was an absolute gem! Super friendly, checked on us just the right amount, and just made the whole vibe way more fun.

I’m already planning to drag my squad here next weekend because they need to try this place.“

“Love this place. Food is good and service is good. The only thing that makes me concerned now is you can no longer see into the kitchen. It's not a big deal but it was always fun to be able to watch them cook while you wait. Now it's all blocked off by cardboard and other things and just gives a negative impression that something is being hidden. (i know they aren't - it's just how it feels)

With that said I will always love and support this place. The food has been amazing - the service has been great. Portion sizes are great. I literally cannot find anything wrong with them - except the mentioned above which isn't even wrong (they have every right to not allow customers to see back there).

Definitely recommend.“

“I’ve been coming to Rush’s for years every time I come into the Columbia area. The food is so good! The burger is always amazing. The milkshake is a nice dessert. But those fries. They are delicious! I normally use ketchup as a habit with most fries I eat. These are the only fries that I feel the ketchup is not needed. To me, that is the sign of a good fry! Keep it up. If I could get a Rush’s in the upstate, I’d be even happier!“

“The bartender Alley is the best! I’ve had great service from lots of people here including Cat, Amanda, Maddie W, Maddie A. Erica, Raylee, and Fallon are also awesome!“

“My Bestie and I visited this store on one of the busiest days of the year, Valentine's Day. RO, HALEY,AMY, and LINDSAY all the staff was AMAZING!!! Reservations was required because of this special day. The store was decorated very festive for Valentine's Day. The store had a balloon arch to take pictures with your date. The atmosphere was amazing and everyone vibing to the selection of music. Kudos to the staff for making this day pleasurable.“

“food cooked perfect, bon appetite 😋“

“The only place I go for the best Chinese food once you go you can't stop. Delicious food all the time

Vegetarian options: Just tell them what veggies you want in your meal and they will honor your suggestion

Parking: If you can't park out front, you can park in Food Lion parking lot too“

“Janet and I stopped in for a drink and stayed for a great dinner! We are full time rv'rs and have sat at many bars in the US, and this establishment turned into a favorite. The food, ambiance, social interaction - along with Scott, our bartender, were wonderful!“

“Hunter did an excellent job as our server. He was also bar tending. Hunter was efficient , personable and had a sense of humor! Black and Blue burger was excellent. Cooked as requested. Only disappointment was that there was no outdoor dining available.“

“We visited for the first time today for lunch. The chicken chimichangas and seafood enchiladas were amazing. The Mexican street corn salad was Devine! The atmosphere was impressive. It was not what I expected from a strip mall restaurant. We will be back!“

“I eat their weekly. Grew up eating Lizards Thicket. Started out at the one that used to be by the airport. I’ve eaten at all of them. They are all good. Love the breakfast. Love the specials. Love the staff. Would recommend anybody that has had a bad Experience. Don’t let that one time experience stop you from enjoying a lot more of good experiences there. Highly recommend them.!!!!👍“

“We stopped at the main restaurant for a meal years ago on our way to or from Florida and fell in love with the Barbecue sauce. Have stopped in when the time is right for a meal. Have the sauce delivered now.“

“The last time we went for lunch our server was great. With the last bite of each course, he brought the next course within seconds. However, I wish the food was as good as his service. It is very generic and bland. I enjoyed the steamed dumplings the most but much of the other food had no Asian flavor and is very Americanized.“

“This place surprised me. I went a bit blind with the assumption it would be in line with most average restaurants. The ambiance was ok, the kitchen was loud and we were sat by the kitchen door. Not pots and pans loud but a loud staff. The food was excellent. I had the trout and my wife had the ravioli. Both were worthy of a return visit.“

“I can’t say enough great things about this establishment! Yes, the food is good. It’s Moe’s! What I’ve been blown away with is the impeccable service and friendliness of this establishment! Bryan Raymond is the epitome of what a great manager should be! He’s super friendly and always attentive to his customers. He is well respected by his crew and leads them with excellence. Quite frankly, he’s the hardest working manager I’ve encountered, anywhere! I hope the ownership takes account of the rockstar they have in Bryan!“

“My first time at this location and the experience was good for me. Ordered at the location, waited about 12 minutes as told and it was hot and ready for me. It tasted good. The guy who took my order was very pleasant too. Would be nice to maybe have a chair inside for someone who may prefer to wait in the location for their order to be ready.

Parking: The parking is great, huge complex space.“

“I like the grits bowl it come with sausage, egg and grits“

“This cafe offers real coffee, La Vazza lattes, and unique dishes from French to Mexican cuisine! I’d highly recommend this place to locals and visitors alike!“

“Great place and friendly service. Daily specials offer a nice variety. Family- oriented place with a separate bar area with huge TV screens for sports coverage.“

“Great service!!! Food was awesome!!! Manager Dee Lino was really on it!!!!!“

“Best sushi in all of cola“

“Our server was fabulous!! Unfortunately I forgot to ask her name…“
