“This Ruby Tuesday West Columbia location is one of my favorite restaurants to go to and eat from. During my mommy lifetime we would go to.I know that most restaurants are feeling the Crunch in Customer Service. Not having enough people to accommodate the load at most restaurants. Let’s not forget to Tip. It’s needed for their survival to make it in this world.“

“This is a well run Chick-fil-A. They are fast inside and all my orders have been correct. They could benift from increased parking. I like it because it is close to the care facility where my 85 year old resides. This allows me to be able to be able to get takeout when I visit her. It is the fastest, most accurate one in the Midlands. Kuddos to the entire team.“

“Fresh Flavors in a Familiar Spot
​It's great to see a new life breathed into the former Zoe's Kitchen, and the Cava team has done a fantastic job with the fresh, clean remodel. The moment you walk in, you feel like you're in a completely new space with a great atmosphere.
​The food is the real highlight here. The customizable bowls and wraps are made right in front of you, with a wide array of incredibly fresh ingredients to choose from. It’s exactly the kind of fast, healthy, and delicious meal you want when you’re looking for something that’s not typical fast food. You order at the counter, and you can either grab a table or take your meal to go. Covered patio area is also available if you prefer. Trays and trash are placed in the receptical area as you leave.
​Service was efficient and good overall, but it lacked a bit of that genuinely warm and welcoming feeling you hope for. It was early dinner time, so they were starting to get busy, and a few tables could have used a quick wipe-down, though the rest of the restaurant was clean and well-kept.
​Overall, Cava is a great addition to the area. It’s a solid 4-star experience, offering fresh, healthy food in a clean, modern setting. With just a little more attention to service and table maintenance, it would easily be a five-star spot. I'll definitely be back to try another combination“

“If you're out after 11pm definitely stop by and get the Salmon Bites with fries! Made fresh to order and had a good movie playing while you wait. I'm coming back for another plate tonight“

“8-20-25 around 8:25pm these ladies were amazing!! Speedy service very friendly all smiles. It was a rush and these ladies held their composure! It was a great experience. The best experience I’ve had at this location hands down. I got a salad 🥗 bowl and pita chips and red pepper hummus. It was amazing. Thank you ladies ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“ANGELA!!!! This woman goes above and beyond for the customers of this restaurant. Her bright and positive smile always has the most uplifting effect on my day and it makes me want to come back daily. She was quick and intentional with her work and helped me navigate my different allergies with ease. Everyone come see Angela at Cava Vista

“The food and service were impeccable!“

“This is undoubtedly the best Sub Station II in Columbia! It's clean, the staff are very friendly, the food is superb, but the parking is rough. The road construction out front should be done by year's end, so hopefully that makes it more accessible. But as it stands, best Sub Station II around!“

“I've dealt with Mission BBQ in Columbia a few times now. Every time they exceed my expectations. Deseray and Cayce both gave exceptional service and the food was amazing. Highly recommend for a quick bite to eat or to cater a work event!“

“Food was amazing however, woman who was working, white maybe mid-late 30s, was the rudest customer service person I’ve ever been in contact with. The other two girls working were nice and helpful but the one woman snapped at every member of my 4 person group and rolled her eyes and stormed away from the next group“

“I preordered a weeks worth of meals and drove from Aiken to pick up. It was well worth the drive. The food is not only appealing to they eyes, but everything I ordered tasted fabulous! You can taste the love in this food!“

“Delicious sandwiches and the sweet wheat bread is the best!“

“some of the best pizza I've ever had.“

“Great food ! This is the closest we have came to authentic Mexican Food since we moved from California. Fajitas were very tasty , salsa had good flavor . And the service was friendly and food came out fast !“

“Highly recommend the Lemon Chicken Platter - it comes with yellow rice and salad (and was very tasty).🍋🍗🍚🥗🤤👍💯❗️“

“Everything about this deli ROCKS!!!!“

“Absolutely delicious pizza and salad! The staff is so talented and very kind and accommodating!“

“Had the best dinner ribs dry rub were absolutely delicious. 8 oz Sirlion done correctly and tender. Server was this young lady Jade C. She was spot on. Prompt friendly, knowledgeable of the menu . My friend and I were two needy customers wanting extra sides and to go orders. Lots of extras for just two people. She went out of her way to accommodate everything we needed and asked for. Thanks to her for making our dinner fun and enjoyable. Girls weekend getaway 11/15/24“

“Today while traveling home from vacation we stopped in for a quick lunch. Service and food were great as always! However, when we went to leave our car wouldn’t start. The owner, Mr. Arnold, was great, he jumped right in grabbing a team member to help get us jumped off. Unfortunately, he couldn’t get close enough to us. The team member drove my dad to O’Reily, which was about 3 miles away to get a jump box. I was able to take my 3 kids back inside a cool restaurant that had Wi-fi, coloring pages, books and games while we waited! The amount of team members who checked on us and interacted with the kids was amazing! They offered water; nuggets and even ice cream! 10/10 recommend if you are passing through this area!“

“Nice battery brewery with small menu of traditional bar food. Wide selection of beers that is updated regularly. Not a huge selection of food, but the pizza I ordered was fairly large and tasted like pizza. A lot of space to sit so large groups can be accommodated, including both indoors and outdoors. The building is an old airplane hanger and includes a large amount of brewing equipment which is really cool to see. A great spot to hang out and drink with friends.“

“MY NEW FAVORITE PLACE! The food was incredible and the atmosphere perfect! I didn't get our server's name (curly hair on top) but he was fantastic, very attentive!“

“This food is amazing! Nico was my server and he was so pleasant and attentive. I will definitely be back!“

“Hot, fresh, fast and delicious. Dine in or take out. Order online or at the counter. Get your food to go or they deliver it to your table, but not full table service. Plenty of seating indoors or outside. Pepsi fountain machine. Not many gluten free options. Free parking lot shared with other businesses. Can be difficult to find parking during busy times.“

“Fill your belly at LEO’S DELI!!! Wooo! This place is awesome! Tried the cheesesteak and it was delicious! Staff are great! First time in this town and they were the friendliest people I’ve met so far! Lots of parking and the place is big and clean. Love it! I’ll be back again for sure!“

“We got a calzone and Stromboli. Both were absolutely delicious. Only complaint is how long it took to wait for our orders. Apple Maps said they were open late at night, Google maps said they were closed. Glad we walked over there to find them open after 1am.“

“Great place to grab lunch. The food is so good!!“

“food was great and the staff was super friendly and so nice“

“Always clean and friendly staff!“

“Love Lillian, her staff and her food! Always 5 ⭐️!!“

“The food is dependable and always good. I don't like the way Chick-fil-A has taken to making all of the drive-thrus a nightmare. traffic is everywhere, running in different directions, and it is quite confusing. God forbid somebody hit one of the cones and render it out of place“

“The food was good and exactly as I had requested. My server was nice, but some of the others would not smile or interact at all when spoken to. I would like to see a more diverse menu like their other locations but I would come back.

Parking: Would encourage them to be more friendly to customers“

“I have eaten here a few times. The chicken salad is great! The croissant each time is a bit dry. I switched to their wheat bread, which was better. The quality of their chicken salad is amazing. So flavorful! The lettuce and tomato are fresh. The cute little cookie you get just ordering a sandwich was a nice treat! I’ve tried the broccoli cheddar soup, that is very cheesy and tasty. The pasta salad was kind of bland and a super small portion but that’s ok. They have lots of options to figure out what you like. The price is not bad if you just do the sandwich, less than $10. My favorite is the Kickin’ Kay Lynne. The sriracha is a nice touch! The cranberry Kelly is good too! That one reminds me of cape cod chicken salad like back home. This place is always packed but the staff is always nice and get you in and out pretty quickly. My new favorite lunch spot!“

“Great food and great staff..“

“Great food you must try them out“

“We have been regularly coming here for years, always consistently good food. Today I had my usual nacho basket, for some reason the jalapeños are now dumped on top of the chips, I suppose for presentation. problem is that the juice makes the chips soggy. this might seem petty but there's nothing worse than soggy chips. also the cheese sauce was brown and clumpy, like it was old. this was my first bad meal. please go back to the peppers in a cup and a nice fresh creamy cheese sauce. thanks!“

“I would like to extend sincere gratitude to Marco's Pizza on Sunset in Lexington, SC, for providing an excellent meal for our dedicated team at Woodridge Memorial Park and Funeral Home. We especially appreciate the favorable pricing and the outstanding quality of the pizza.“

“Stopped on our road trip south. As always Chik-fil-A delivers on quality and service. Went through drive thru. It was super fast, the staff was accommodating, pleasant and friendly. The food was hot, good and the order was right what more can you ask?“

“The staff were very kind and from the time we ordered our food to sitting down literally took less than two minutes! Crazy fast and shout out to Meagan, she was very helpful. Thank you guys!

Also check out the way they handed out the tray, so clean. 🔥“

“Kendal was excellent,“

“I placed a mobile order and mistakenly entered in this location. Andrew called me and said my order was ready. I was at a neighboring CFA. They obviously didn’t have my mobile order so I called Andrew back to let home know I was headed his way. He was so pleasant and walked out to me car as he saw me approaching…..and it was a rainy rainy day! They even gave me hot fresh fries! Customer service at CFA is a gold standard. I appreciate Andrew!!“

“The BEST pizza in town“

“this reply is for “wendy day” have you ever thought to realize that it could be their first day on the job? or were you not considering the fact. you’re describing a chick fil a employee “inefficient & uncaring” when chick fil a employees thrive on kindness to their customers, you mean to tell me you’re complaining abt waiting five minutes for your order 💀 what do you expect it’s chick fil a they are always busy get over it and go somewhere else.“

“I love using the Chick-fil-A app to order ahead that makes it so easy to get your food and get out of the traffic. Everything at this location is always great! **Small suggestion I always order a large waffle fry, so could you please let the line staff know to please fill it up to the top, as that's why I pay a little extra for the large. That's my only suggestion** Thank you so much!

Parking: Parking is tight as so many people love Chick-fil-A, so just be patient and get in where you can fit in.

Kid-friendliness: The kids' indoor play area is a really nice space. It's cleaned often, and the kids love it.

Wheelchair accessibility: The location can easily be accessed by wheelchair.“

“Took My Family out here to a place I tried, I believe last week with my sister. I figured the rest of the family would enjoy it as well. I was correct! They have amazingly homemade tasting burgers in my personal opinion. The different options are phenomenal even though yes I feel it's a little pricey but the quality is there so for now I can role with the price. Just not at the level it was on tonight because....Oh Goodness Benjamin, Jackson & Hamilton I spent up in there was well worth the TREAT! Tomorrow Nights the TRICKS are coming out! Happy Halloween ? ?“
