“Yesterday was my first time going to this location. I’ve been to other San Jose’s before, but this one is definitely my favorite. Our waitress, Balu, was awesome! My boyfriend and I were very pleased with the overall service, and the Very Berry drinks were so good. The atmosphere was also very pleasant and welcoming. We left happy, full, and satisfied 😆💫🫶❤️“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere, and a great time was enjoyed by us all! This is now our Go-To spot!! We highly recommend giving it a try if you haven’t!“

“Best meat lovers pizza and kids friendly“

“We love Pontiac! The food is always great. It’s also the little things. My dog loves when a place has a drive through, which they do, and all she wants is them to say hi to her. They are always so sweet to her when we hit the drive through!“

“Im a vegetarian therefore it’s hard finding places to eat when i don’t feel like cooking . However i think i’ve finally found a regular spot . I first tried them eating off my moms plate and was blown away by the flavor of the okra & creaminess of the mac and cheese . I created my own order of a veggie plate shortly afterwards & thats when I found out it’s a vegan spot !!! EVEN BETTER !!! I ordered the mac / okra & kale salad as the sides for the veggies plate and when i say everything was immaculate !!! The vinaigrette 🤏🏾🤏🏾 . I just created my 2nd order & i had her order for me due to me being highly indecisive . I was stuck between wings and nachos , she chose the nachos & baby this CHILI !!!!!!!! 👌🏾👌🏾 definitely made a great choice !!! Only critique is i would add more toppings like actual nachos should be (lettuce tomato olives jalapeños pico etc) I cant wait to try the wings next !!! definitely my go to spot for when i dont want to cook my own vegetarian meals . I also just signed up for my gym membership . Great combination for my healing journey !! Overall i highly recommend !!! 100/10 !!!! I wish u guys had a sample night to try everything so ik for sure what i want next time . But im pretty sure whatever i chose to order will amaze my tastebuds for sure 👌🏾“

“I have been a customer of this organization from Hunt Club Road to Jackson Blvd, to its current location. The atmosphere is pure Gasthaus, and the food is as authentic as one can obtain in this area.“

“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.“

“My husband was taken to this restaurant two weekends ago and now we have to drive to Columbia just for this restaurant because it has ruined him! LOL 🤣 By the way, we are driving over an hour to eat there! See you guys tomorrow! Delicioso! My husband can't wait!!!!! 😋👍❤️ I give this place five stars and I haven't even ate there!!!!“

“We had the best pizza and cannolis! Can’t wait to go back!“

“I’ve never felt the need to write a review before, but the service here was amazing! Our server was so kind (we unfortunately didn’t catch his name), and the food was delicious. Everything came out quickly, the place was very clean, and overall it was a great experience. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great place, I was really shocked that the salads were as good as they were. Normally when this place satisfies my appetite with bar food like a burger, fries, wings, etc., yet this time I tried a salad and was blown away. Clearly the salad selection at the place is a secret, but worth trying.“

“Was here for Cinco de Mayo celebration. I can't speak on food because I didn't eat, only drank. I had a good time. Keep in mind that this is not the regular atmosphere, but at the same time it looks like a great place to meet up and chill.“

“I cannot tell you how much I love this place!! Their staff went above and beyond to help us with a last minute birthday cake order when our original one canceled day of our party ! It’s was absolutely delicious and was one of the most beautiful cakes I’ve ever seen! You’ve earned a lifelong customer 💕“

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

“The food, though fixed for buffet style dining, was fresh and delicous! It was prepared in batches so that each batch was fresh and cooked to perfection. The serving pans were clean and no food falling off of them due to overfill. Every area was carefully attended, food wasn't running out, utensils were all given for each individual dish and the meats were well prepared. The servers were extremely nice and paid attention to the need for drink refills without being asked. There was so much of everything offered, I wish I could have eaten more. Go there prepared to take your time to eat and to fully enjoy the food. It's worth every penny! The restaurant is clean, tables, seats, and dishware were all very clean. It's large enough to accommodate large groups as well. Plenty of great parking. The parking spaces are not narrow or cramped. Please go and have a wonderful Magnolia experience. This Asian kitchen is it!“

“The restaurant has a low key exterior but is very nice inside. The shrimp were good but I wish there was more flavor inside of them since I don’t eat the skin. But I was sure to eat the fry on the outside which was delicious! The Vietnamese coffee was delicious!“

“I love this place fir hibachi. The other 1 on Clemson does not know how to season their food like edo! The portions are great as well. Never had a bad experience with this resturant. I only gave 4 stars for atmosphere cause I always get my food to go.“

“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!“

“I want to give a kudos to the manager from last night. I arrived at 9 pm and the bar was empty so i requested a refund. Hunny she said give me 5 minutes, I just have to go to the back to get things moving. Not only did she apologize like 5x but baby she filled that bar full of food and when she noticed I ordered pizza didn’t get made either she provided my family with free coupons to come back.“

“food cooked perfect, bon appetite 😋“

“We stopped by Rush's in Columbia SC on the way home to Greenville SC from Charleston SC. This was a great little spot for a good burger and friendly staff clean restaurant 😀 03/29/2026“

“My favorite Chinese restaurant,The same chef been working there for over 25 years,He has very high standards, I ordered the Chinese Boneless chicken. My other two favorites are the Peppered steaks so tender and the Swert&sour chicken,Food is always delicious.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“I got the sweet and sour chicken and it was delicious! Service was not so good. My husband got the Mount Fuji roll and ate every bite. And it's a pretty big serving. He did say the Mount Fuji roll should come with rice .. overall that was a good meal and we would go back there again.“

“Stopped in for a quick bite before driving up to Greenville. My server Lindsay was awesome, food was surprisingly good. Much better than the WH by me. She made sure I had refills and was patient about me being a picky eater. Cooks did great, will definitely be back.“

“It is LOUD. And I hate when people use all caps but that’s how loud it was. Zero buffer for noise and the restaurant wasn’t even that crowded. The server Thomas was quick and nice enough...but when they brought out the pork belly and avocado tacos with no avocados, he told me to “check the menu” and brought a menu over to me to check. When he saw that there was, indeed, supposed to be avocado on the tacos, he said they’d bring a side out. I just thought it weird that he brought a menu to the table for me to double check instead of 1. knowing the menu and 2. treating the patron correctly🤷🏼‍♀️ The manager came over to abruptly ask “if everything was ok?” and sort of scared us. He popped up out of nowhere and looked like he’d been drinking since 11am. Here’s my advice, owners: don’t let employees drink until after their shift. Take the loud tvs out. Turn down the music and put some noise buffers up. Portions are good and the food was pretty good! Tighten the ship and you’ll have a full parking lot every day.“

“If you’re looking for hibachi, sushi, great vibes, or a place to celebrate something special — Sumo is the spot. Highly recommend! 🔥🥢🎉“
