“Best cheese burger made my a really cute guy!“

“THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!!!!“

“We enjoyed the food and the live music! We’ll be back to try the outdoor dining!“

“Staff was very friendly and courteous. Food was off the chain!“

“This brisket was EVERYTHING — seasoned just right and amazing with or without the sauce! And Hubbys’s pulled pork? 🤤Customer approved! Plus the service was top tier! 🙌🏾✨“

“Really great brisket and the sides were great, too (green beans and slaw)!“

“Mike and Jeff's is one of the last SC BBQ style restaurants in Greenville, and it's absolutely perfect. Growing up here, most BBQ places were basically smoke-filled shacks on the side of the road, and there was no better place to eat. Walking into Mike and Jeff's is like walking back into my childhood here in Greenville. Beyond the nostalgia, their food is excellent, all of their sauces are delicious (if you like truly spicy BBQ sauce, ask for their XXX Sauce, it's by request only, and it's spectacular), and their pulled pork and ribs are excellent (the ribs are country style ribs, not baby back), the sides are great, and their cheeseburgers are surprisingly good. Definitely a hidden gem in Greenville, and well worth the trip anytime.“

“No matter what you get here it’s great. I get the smoked wing plate with extra sides and it’s excellent every time. The baked beans are really good too. Fried ribs are definitely worth having. The nachos are really tasty too. Great place to eat and there’s usually doggies in the outdoor eating area which is really cool, love the dogs and Moe’s.“

“I've had pretty much all the good BBQ spots in Greenville and I will make the drive the Burly Bills every time. Totally worth it. The burgers, hickory fries, BBQ burrito are my favorite, but everything I've had is delicious. Including the sweet tea!“

“Our family got several different meals and shared so we could try lots of things. We unanimously loved it all! Helpful and friendly service. We’ll be back!“

“Regarding barbecue, what you want The Taste is meat and smoke. Smoking meat! This place came through in spades. I ordered the large barbecue sandwich with coleslaw and sweet sauce. It's really two meals...the food that stays on the bun and the food that's left over after the bun disappears. The meat left over covered the plate, no joke! Would eat again and again.“

“We ordered Henry’s Catering for a work luncheon and WOW. We received very quick responses from their catering and ordering online was so easy peasy with how sweet their team is. Food was delivered on time and set up very quickly. Our staff REALLY enjoyed this for our meal and we are so glad we chose to have the meal catered by Henry’s.“

“Good BBQ and family atmosphere. We also enjoyed the tabletop games available.“

“The best BBQ in Greenville/South Carolina. Amazing atmosphere and service. The BBQ is elite. From the Turkey to the brisket, it’s my favorite. My kids love the tater tots and wings. This is our favorite spot for family dinner, hands down.“

“What a gem. We were greeted by an awesome and attentive staff immediately upon arrival. Savannah was our server and was absolutely amazing. She was very friendly and helpful. She was knowledgeable about the menu and explained it very clearly with great understanding. We will definitely be frequenting this location.“

“Have used Smokin Chips a couple of times. Never disappoints! Best BBQ in town! Delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Best brisket this side of Austin. And then throw some of that homestyle Mac with it. Cold beer, great people supporting the local PC/Taylors community, and the best desserts.“

“I tried the Classic Philly cheese steak, with provolone cheese. Fries for a side. The cheese steak was tasty and had plenty of steak, peppers, and onions. I'd definitely order it again. There's plenty of seating as it's part of a food hall establishment. Along with a burger place and tap room. Outside seating available too.“

“great food..drinks and music“

“This local pub / restaurant is incredible! The staff is outstanding! The founder, Lia (spelling?) is so wonderful! You can tell she loves her business and her guests. Great food! Cool atmosphere. Fun games! Highly recommend!“

“Underrated spot for a quick and satisfying meal. The burgers are consistently good, the fries hit the spot, and the shakes are excellent. It is also one of the better values around if you are looking for something filling without spending much. Orders come out fast and it is easy to grab a meal and get back to your day.

If there is any downside, it would be presentation. Nothing here is fancy and everything is clearly focused on speed and value. That said, it fits the style of the place and is easy to overlook once you start eating.“

“Sunday our group had 12 people...the hostess was wonderful and with the busy day still had us seated within 10 minutes! Kelli was our waitress and she was FABULOUS!! She knew what she was doing and we never had to wait for anything!!! Such a great experience Gals!!!! Thank you from Jones Hill Church of God!!!!“

“What a great lunch we had today here. I had the lemon chicken while my friend had the sirloin steak. My chicken was juicy and flavorful. The sirloin, while cooked correctly was still tough to cut.
The service was good, no long waits to be seating or for food to be served. As busy as they were, the restaurant was clean and welcoming.“

“The brisket was amazing. Food was very good. We will be back.“

“We are frequent diners since this store opened and I can't stress enough how consistent this establishment is. Being in Easley is difficult for many businesses with our limited labor pool, but management seems to be able to select the best staff. Of note in service is Misty and Ariana and Alic is an outstanding and engaged manager. 5+ stars for this restaurant!“

“Amazing Food n Staff! Give it a,try!“

“The wait for a table was a little long but we were served with a great service and excellent food.“
