“The Hollow is always a tremendous experience from start to finish. From making the reservation to the impeccable service, everything is handled with care and professionalism. Our server, Fletcher, was fantastic, attentive, knowledgeable and perfectly timed with every course. The execution of the food, the hospitality, and the overall atmosphere are consistently outstanding. Chris, the owner, is unbelievably kind and attentive, making guests feel genuinely welcomed. It's clear that a lot of pride goes into every detail. Truly a one-of-a-kind dining experience that we look forward to every time. Thank you again The Hollow SC for making our date night so special.”

“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 👌🏾”

“Absolutely fantastic. Loved the decor. Great staff. The food was so great! The only thing I would say is maybe add a little something out of the ordinary for dessert. Will definitely be back!”

“A friend and I have regular dinner dates at Terra and we always have a great time! Tonight we had the shishito peppers, Chinese pork belly, snapper and the braised lamb pappardelle followed by the olive oil cake with sweet cream eggplant ice cream. We both agreed it was one of our top meals over the past several years at Terra and cannot wait until our next date! Quality, consistency and service are always top notch, and the one time we tried another restaurant for our date night we totally regretted it and went right back to Terra for our next meetup. Thank you Terra for being so reliable and delivering some of the best bites in the area, you are our gem!”

“My bartender Felisatie greeted me with a smile and told my what the beer special of today was. She took my drink/food order in a timely fashion and made sure that my food order was complete before she enter it in the cash register...Hey pleasant personality is extremely rare nowadays.”

“The lady who treated us was So nice and she smiled the whole time and she even asked us if our cookie looked right just in case and she let me change a cookie and the cookies were amazing not baked to deal hard but not underbake to wear. They’re literally just cookie dough, but I do like how they have that cookie dough feeling.”

“I really liked the food and good service came out in about 15 minutes really quick recommend coming here 5 stars (Hudson)”

“I’ve been going to 929 for years! It’s one of the best moderate Korean restaurants in Columbia.”

“What a great find as we are traveling 16 hours from FL to MD as snow birds and finally decided to go out vs grabbing a pizza and staying at the Airbnb.
I yelped and saw their other reviews on google and said let's go!

I am sooooo thankful and as we snow bird ,now this will be our every January and end of February stops for awesome dinner and drinks!!!

And P.S. The greeters, wait staff, bartender and even OFF STAFF folks that sat beside us were so proud to be here, gave us recommendations,engaged in conversation and were that best!”

“Highly recommended, Kalen C was awesome”

“The food and service were impeccable!”

“I never leave reviews, but this place is just too good to not share. The drinks are unique and delicious (My favorite is the Island Boi, or the Orange Creamsicle one, or maybe the Coco Loco one 😂😂). And the food is incredible! I’ve never had anything there that I didn’t love. My favorites are the hush puppies, hummus, Veg Fil A sandwich, and the rice and beans bowl. This time when we went, the chef added protein crumbles, nacho cheese, and green onions on top and it was even better. My son loves the Hoot sandwich and he’s 10 years old and usually non-vegan….so that’s a huge compliment to the flavor of that sandwich. On top of all this, the place is just cool. The atmosphere is so comfortable and inviting, like I could stay all night if I didn’t have to put my kid to bed! 🤣 I just really love this place and I’m so glad to see it added to our neighborhood!!”

“The atmosphere is perfection. The food is incredible. The wine knowledge is top tier. This has been in our date night rotation for years for a reason. Jess is a wealth of knowledge and creates the best wine lineup. Cameron has the most fun personality that adds to our nights & his ability to know what we like is uncanny. You cannot go wrong with a night at Lula!”

“One of the best tasting & most unique blends I have ever had. Owner-barista personable and kind.”

“Great food and great service!”

“Me and my husband goes there all the time. The food is good for the price. They have daily specials every day of the week. Love us some Bernie's Chicken. I always order the 3 peace dark all thighs.”

“Great variety of coffee drinks, baked goods, rolled ice cream, shakes and sandwiches. Great value and super nice staff”

“Alex, was absolutely wonderful!! Great customer service!”

“My husband and I had such a wonderful time dining at The Melting Pot! The entire experience was fantastic, and our server, Nicole, was absolutely amazing, so sweet and attentive. She made sure everything was perfect for us throughout the evening. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining experience. It’s an absolute must!”

“My absolute favorite Italian restaurant in the Columbia area. Always wonderful food and great service!”

“I had the pleasure of being served by Kayla she went out her way with excellent customer service skills was very helpful polite would definitely recommend i will be back she was so nice she made my day with her smile and kind words”

“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 love the sandwiches, vegan mac and cheese, and, oh my goodness, the cake!!! Best vegan chicken sandwich and cake I have ever had! The batter on the “chicken” is amazing! Every time we go there, I cannot wait to go back! They are so friendly as well and make you feel valued as a customer.”

“I had attempted to eat here a few times but it was when school was in session in the line was out the door. Today was my lucky day. I came by just after the breakfast crush and was able to place my order to go. The staff was efficient and the owner made sure my order was correct. Hand's down, the very best cinnamon roll I've ever had. I'll definitely be back soon. Thank CRD for a great experience and fantastic food.”

“This was my first visit. I had a 7:30 reservation and arrived 30 minutes early. Seated by 7:15. Our waiter Marcus, was quite pleasant and provided great feedback of our meal choice. He was quick and attentive. For our first course, we had local beet salad and mussels. Absolutely delicious!!! For the entree we had the swordfish replacement, Tilefish ( because they sold out of the swordfish). We’ve never heard of Tilefish and it was a great choice!!The shrimp and grits was delicious and savory. The only thing we were not to happy with was the cold air coming from the patio. It was a rather cool night. It was hard to relax because we were cold, sadly. I’m sure the atmosphere would have been better if we were not so cold. The parking is extremely tight and small so expect to possibly park on the street or use the valet parking. Overall, I would return again.”

“Great service and delicious food. The key lime cake is amazing.”

“We were in the area this eve, and picked up some dinner to go. Our order of stew Red Snapper with rice n peas & side of callaloo, plus order of doubles with 🌶 felt like we were at one of favorite BK Trini spots. Everything was on point and so deliciously seasoned. They did NOT disappoint👌🏾”
