“We used to be 'RT regulars', but something changed a couple years ago . . . service went downhill. 3 separate times in 2023 we went there, walked in, no hostess to greet us, and waited at least 5 minutes. Each time the place was empty . . . vacant tables everywhere. We'd make eye contact with a server or bartender, but still no acknowledgement that we were there. Each time, after no one bothered to acknowledge us and seat us, we left. We saw other customers do the same. It was bizarre!
After 2 years of becoming 'Applebee's regulars', we decided last night to give RT one more chance. What a pleasant surprise! We were greeted and seated quickly, our sever (Jordyn) was fantastic, and the food was as good as we remembered it from years ago. The restaurant was fairly empty . . . perhaps a lot of former customers had the same bad experiences we had, and haven't come back. Based on our experience last night, I would say definitely give them another shot. We will definitely return.
(Why not 5 stars? There was no draft beer available. My chair was wobbly to the point I thought it might collapse. And the neon sign outside had several letters burned out . . . not a good message to potential customers driving by and looking for a place to eat. )“

“I only have one complaint about this place, it’s not close enough to me. We absolutely love this bar and grill. The atmosphere the entertainment and food are the best.“

“Food was great. The band was awesome, and my server Maddie was on point. Great experience. Thank you to the manager Jimmy for coming by our table to check on us.“

“Great breakfast place. Had the Working Man's Breakfast. 2 eggs, sausage, hash browns, country gravy, biscuits, and coffee. All of it, FANTASTIC!! Service was great. Coffee was kept freshened up. Very good price as well.

Loved it.“

“Good family, friendly pizza place! And they have the actual fried pickle spears, not chips, which are is hard to find.“

“friendliest and best servers, fast service and the best steaks around!“

“We came in Saturday night after the Columbia Christmas Parade with a party of 20+. The service was excellent. They made accommodations for us, our drinks stayed full, the orders came out correct and they were patient with all of the kids that were hyped up on sugar. TVs were everywhere so I was even able to catch some of the games. They have a nice bar that would be great for a drink and wings.“
