Great smash burger and salt and vinegar fries! Seevice was prompt and friendly and the food was hot off the grill which seems to be a lost art with most restaurants. The owner has done a great job in preserving the old bar for charm while maintaining modern standards. read more

I had Adobe gold sauce wings and they were great. Wings had a good breading and cooked crispy. Food was good, hot, and service was great. read more

Traveling, stopped late (around 8P). This is a bar with food. Nice folks. Food was fresh but ok with the exception of the Potstickers - YUM!! Loved they played 80s/90s music videos on a few screens. Impressed with downtown Charleston! Historic, beautiful architecture, clean & neat. read more

Definitely that old bar style. Stuff just gets added and added over time. The food was good and fitting for the spot.

We got in and sat pretty quickly, had our drink orders taken but were waiting on some more people so we waited to order food. It was pretty loud in here!! Of course it is a bar and it was a Saturday night and college sports ball was on the TVs so what do you expect?? I got the fried green tomato BLT which was good. All the sammiches come with pork rinds () but you can sub fries or other sides if you want. I didn't care one way or another, I just gave them to my brother and his wife since they like them. My son ordered fries but didn't get them, he got rinds as well but when I pointed it out the fixed it right quick!! Also my wife asked for a side of buffalo sauce which was forgotten buuuut when it was mentioned they fixed that quickly as well. Kudos on the fixing!! All in all it was pretty good- it is dog friendly in case you are so inclined, one couple had their dog out on the patio (sidewalk) and another guy had his dog inside at the bar with him. read more

This place is always busy so I was excited to give it a try! We went around 2 on a weekday, trying to avoid the rush. Started with the fried avacado with garlic aioli - it was delightful - not greasy or heavy! My wife got the steakhouse smash burger and was very pleased. I built my own smash burger. I am not usually a burger person but this one hit! We will definitely be back, lots more we want to try! read more

Stopped in with my fiancé on Saturday for lunch. We got apps that were very good- we tried the deep fried pita with dips and the cauliflower appetizer. I appreciated the vegetarian options! Good beers, great service, and great music. Also there's a pool table upstairs! Definitely recommend checking them out. read more

We were looking for a cheeseburger on a Sunday night. Most places were closed. We came here and found it was more bar than restaurant. But we were able to get in. Ordered drinks. Music got louder. After a long while we ordered food. Music got louder. We ate. Music got louder. Food was tasty. Music was loud. It would be a fun place for a group of adults to go out for some drinks. But it wasn't the most family-friendly establishment. read more

I've gotten my GRÜV on three times now, but I still can't dance worth a lick. This place's food, however, is definitely worth a lick. I'd lick anything there, quite frankly. The "Say Cheese" Burger had me saying, "I want to shake your hand," because it was so good. Sadly, it had no hand to shake, because I bit it off. As did I with the rest of the delicious sandwich. I'll be as bold to say it's the best-tasting burger I've ever had. I drove myself to jail afterwards because the combination of pimento cheese and hot pepper jelly should be illegal. It's the only burger I know where you actually can forget for a minute there is bacon on it. There are other burgers out there, but I simply do not care. Wherever else you get your sandwich, you're wrong. Go to GRUV. read more

Good food. Excellent service and food was great. A lot of locals came in and out, and it helped show the friendliness from the community.

Amazing find in Charleston! Was expecting average 'bar' food, but it was all amazing!!! The service was outstanding! You MUST go! Egg rolls were over the cop, and can't leave with out trying toffee coffee cake! read more

Delicious, fresh, and hot food! We were craving a good burger some long hours in on our roadtrip and GRÜV got our attention with its menu variety and affordable prices. Great serving staff that was able to answer our questions about items and the interior of the place itself was homey and welcoming as if we were in a sports bar back in our town. Can't recommend their burgers enough, absolutely would love to go back to Charleston someday and try their other items! read more

The Gruv sports bar was a fantastic find. The food was incredible and the service was very friendly and good. The chef even saw us out and asked how our meal was. We gave him a good first bump with a thumbs up! Recommend the fried green tomato BLT. We split it and it was a meal. read more

Food is ok service is bad dirty floors only good thing is cheap food also I am a high reviewer but this one isn't

The wings here were ok. They come plain with dipping sauce. The sauces were good. The fried green tomato batter needs more seasoning. It is really bland. My family thought there chicken wraps were mid and none of them ate much of it. Maybe we ordered the wrong things. The bar itself is really quaint and had a good vibe on a football Saturday. read more

The wait times were very long, got sat immediately but food took forever and we waited 30m to pay for our food. Great tasting food but poor wait times. read more

We have experienced the hospitality of The Gruv before, but we had an opportunity to order for our office for 8 people. Absolutely the best experience!! We ordered the "Say cheese" smashburger, a couple of salads (they were HUGE), a couple of girls got Buffalo chicken wraps, boneless wings, black bean patty and a variety of different appetizers-fried avocado, brussel sprouts, pretzel bites....In one word....AMAZING!!! Knocked it out of the park! Chef's kiss and hat's off to the cooks, staff and the owner!!! You all are amazing and highly recommended!! I would say if you are ordering for a large group like ours, call the day before to let them know....and be patient, they are busy. Check them out!!! They are AWESOME!!! read more

My girl friends & I stopped in for lunch. The place was very clean. The service was great. The Bloody Mary I had was decent. The smash burger was really good! The fries were really good too! Everyone in my party loved their meals & we are planning to return! read more

I can't get away from the smash burger! I build my own. Go hungry cause it's definitely filling. Also love the shoestring fries. I would like the option of a homemade ranch, no dill. Just a personal preference. I work in town, this is always a go to. This is the old Edge spot, love the nostalgia and the upgrades. read more

Great service, great food. We had wings, awesome salads, and burgers. Our server, Billie, took great care of us. Will definitely eat here again. Seriously the best wings I've ever had. read more

OMG I had to have another burger so we went agian a few days later. This time I got another burger and fried pickles. So good Beware they are addictive read more

First visit, arrived at 6:00 place filled up quick and the food and service was great!

First time trying this new bar (the old Joe's). Fried green tomato blt with pork rinds with a Cajun rub. Phenomenal lunch that went fabulously with the Big Timber alpenglow. Friendly bartender, nice dive like ambience. Will be back for sure. read more

Service takes forever. Lied about being able to play certain games. Understaffed. Food is mid.
