They took priority to regulars and outside area. My beef sandwich was mediocre at best. Fries were decent. The tomato for my husband's chicken sandwich had seemed not ripe at all. Don't think we'll be back. Not very welcoming.

Beer selections were very limited unless all you wanted were AB products. I asked for various common decent whiskeys, scotch and popular craft beers and struck out on all. Finally asked for captain and coke and told the soda system was broken. This is I got nice ice water. Ordered garlic parm pretzel bites. They dumped so much table salt on them that they were white color. We even tried to wipe them off and it was impossible to eat. We then tried party ryes. They must have been out of party rye because we got two pieces of marble rye cut in 1/4 with the topping on them. Tasted good but don't say on your menu that it's on party rye bread. My recommendation is fire the kitchen manager and invest a few bucks on a decent liquor selection. All in all the quality is that of a lower level south city tavern struggling to keep the doors open rather than an Oakville " pub".

We love Tiny's- an essential Columbia experience that's been around for generations. The owner is…read morekind and contributes to the community in a variety of ways, so you can feel good about keeping your dollars local. They serve an extensive selection of local and German beers. The newly renovated front bar area is very nice too! The exposed brick and the wood bar keep the vibes cozy and inviting. The back bar area has plenty of room for dining and socializing. Wait staff are friendly and helpful and have gone out of their way to accommodate my kids and their tastes. We have been to several community events here. They offer traditional bar fare and appetizers, but in the past several years, they have expanded the German food menu. You really can't go wrong with any of it! On Wednesdays, Tiny's offers soup flights and all of the choices are excellent.

Graphite was a wonderful surprise and a standout dining experience in Columbia. I love that the…read morerestaurant's name is a nod to the building's history as a former schoolhouse, which now beautifully houses both the Principal Hotel and Graphite. Both feel like elevated, unexpected gems in a small town. I ordered the fried chicken dinner with the half chicken portion, and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was juicy and flavorful with perfectly crispy, crunchy skin. The service was excellent, and our waitstaff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout the evening. The restaurant itself was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed. The restrooms were also spotless and well maintained. It is clear that a lot of care goes into every aspect of the guest experience. My only minor criticism is the size of the drink glasses. Once ice is added, there is not much room left for the actual beverage. My parents found themselves needing refills more frequently than they typically would at other restaurants. It was not a major issue, but slightly larger glasses might make things more convenient for both guests and staff. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will definitely be back. Graphite is a true hidden gem that offers great food, excellent service, and a unique atmosphere.

Being observant is part of great service... ambiance has a lot to come desired way to many young teenage girls running around...not what I'd expect for a couple of drinks and $100 tab! Been there three times drinks are always good but the food has been subpar every time! Had three appetizers stuffed portabella mushrooms I'd give a 3 no taste, Mac and cheese bites dry and tasteless a 2 (bought some at schnucks a few weeks ago and they were much better) the steak skewers maybe a 2.5 had so much what they called pesto which looked and tasted like wet grass, once we removed the wet grass the steak was over cooked but well seasoned... My suggestion would be to hire a new chef and decide a direction or speciality focus (Italian, American or gastro pub and stick with it! Sorry but third strike you're out, we won't be back! Until we hear you've made some major changes!

A very nice little restaurant with a fun atmosphere and wood all around the place. The food was quite tasty I recommend the beer cheese burger and the prices are easy on the wallet. Red and I both ordered the beer cheese burger and it was cooked perfectly even the bun was the right size and grilled toasty but not hard. I had the tots , Red had onion rings and Jerriane had chicken fingers and mashed potatoes and gravy and we all enjoyed a really good meal at a cool little place off the beaten path.

It was a good arrangement, and we had plenty of room. Our server was Shannon and she was fabulous! She was attentive, friendly, put up with all of our orders and generally made sure we had what we needed while we were there. I would give her 5 stars on her own, she was great. I ordered the Sugar Plum Fizz, and it looked nice enough, but it really just tasted like seltzer and not much else. I didn't drink it after the first two drinks. For food, I got a cup of chili and a half Italian salad. I asked for no cheese on the salad. The chili was ok, I ate it and the salad, but both were just ehh. It was a group get together and we had fun and the service was superb!

The furniture and decor is all classic college town wood; wooden chairs, wooden tables, beer and alcohol posters everywhere. There are unique elevations and large steps so be watchful if you're clumsy or prone to tripping. The climate inside was nice and all of a sudden got very chilly -- we opted to move to an outside table. There is a stage outside so live entertainment must be common there. Our waitress, Sophie, was kind and attentive. The only thing I would have preferred was more transparency on our bill. Items we added weren't listed out, making it seem like we were being overcharged.
