In Sumter for a few days and decided to stop by. We ordered fresh spot, catfish, black bass,…read moreporgies, oysters and shrimp and all were cleaned on the spot, fried and seasoned to perfection. The only downside was that we weren't aware that our order would take over and hour, but not enough of a downside to deter us from going back. I particularly loved the way the staff was with the customers, asking about their families and such. Shows me that this is a beloved local staple. If you want to be able to pick your own fresh fish, have them clean it and then fry it for you (or you could have them cleaned to go), this is your spot. Just plan to wait about an hour or more. I would recommend placing your order, running errands and then coming back.

I ordered a steak, broccoli and salad. The steak was a perfectly medium rare, very nicely seasoned and delicious! Broccoli was just steamed broccoli, but was still nice and crisp. Salad was small and the dressing was pretty bad. Asked for a different one and it wasn't much better. Very clearly food service bottled stuff. But really, that was the only glitch. Would for sure come back here if I'm in Sumter again.

Tucked away in a shopping strip, Hawaii Steak & Seafood House in Sumter is easy to overlook from…read morethe outside, but once you step in, you're greeted with a surprisingly clean and spacious dining area. I didn't dine in this time, I ordered my meal to-go but I still got a good feel for the space. I ordered spring rolls and shrimp and scallop hibachi. The veggies was definitely the highlight of the meal. The seafood was cooked nicely, but it was the fresh, crisp veggies that really stood out and gave the dish its balance. The portions were generous, big enough that you're not leaving hungry, and maybe even with leftovers for later. The spring rolls missed the mark for me. They lacked the veggie crunch I was hoping for and didn't have that crispy, golden snap that makes spring rolls irresistible. Instead, they leaned a bit on the soggy side, which left me wanting more texture and flavor balance. Overall, Hawaii Steak & Seafood House is one of those spots where you'll walk out full and satisfied portion-wise. The hibachi veggies shined, but a few other items could use a little fine-tuning. Clean space, big plates, and a meal that's worth a try if you're in the area.

My wife ordered the Roman and loved every bite. My daughter went with the salmon bento box, which was both beautiful and tasty. And me? I couldn't resist the "Sexy Girl" sushi roll--tempura shrimp and crab fried just right. Yep, yep... YUMMY! From start to finish, everything was flavorful, creative, and well-prepared. If you're looking for a place in Sumter with variety, flavor, and that "we'll definitely be back" factor--this is it!

The only other negative was the amount of time it took for our food to arrive. I'd still recommend, but add a little extra time for your meal.

My 88 year old father in law comes here weekly not sure if it is the boomers sense of dedication or what but they all still stand by this chain. I ordered my food to go online. The curbside to go parking is located across the parking lot and there was like 3 spots to park in. Once I arrived I texted the number of my parking spot. The restaurant looked fairly empty but even after the pick up time no one came to my car. I saw other people parking and then going inside to grab their orders. I ended up having to go inside to get my order, upon walking in a young lady handed me my bag. The inside looked clean and the environment was casual. My order included grilled Mahi, broccoli and brussel sprouts with a added skewer of shrimp. The veggies were the stars of the meal the Brussel Sprouts were very good and the broccoli was fresh and cooked well. The shrimp were decent a tad dried out but not bad. The grilled Mahi was not good, it looked like it was grilled in water and had an awful smell from what ever was used to grill it. I took a few bites and the fish was flavorless and the smell was so overwhelming that I couldn't eat the rest. Even the cheese biscuits were mediocre. Amongst the many dying chains Red lobster is definitely on life support. I'm not sure how long a reputation can keep a business open but the food is not what it used to be. I wouldn't come back.

A True Southern Gem in Sumter…read more Simply Southern Bistro absolutely deserves all five stars. Every time I walk through the door, I'm greeted with warm hospitality and the kind of service that makes you feel like family. The food is consistently outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and made with real Southern heart. Whether it's their perfectly seasoned entrées, the homemade sides, or those desserts you can't say no to, everything tastes like it came straight from someone's kitchen who knows what they're doing. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for a casual lunch or a relaxed dinner. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they do, and it shows in both the service and the quality of the food. Sumter has plenty of places to eat, but Simply Southern Bistro stands out as one of the best. If you want a meal that hits the spot every single time, this is the place. Highly recommend.

Neither one of them knew when or how long food is supposed to be left under the heat lamp before it becomes TRASH!!!!! Family owned or not, we expect higher quality food for their extremely high prices. BUYERS BEWARE! Expect an unclean store, bad food and bad attitudes!!!
