Peanut Butter Fudge Pie (5/5): The best part of the meal. The crumbly crust was delicious and the…read morepie itself tasted like a Reese's cup. Buttermilk Fried Chicken (4/5): Decent fried chicken. I didn't expect it to be a boneless breast. Dark meat would've given it more flavor. The potatoes were flavorful and creamy. The collard greens were too acidic for me. Cornmeal Fried N.C. Catfish (3/5): The catfish wasn't anything special but the grits were very good. Lots of flavor and good texture. The collard greens were too acidic for me. Fried Adluh Yellow Grit Cakes (3/5): Would've been a lot better if it was fried more and had a crispier exterior. The herb goat cheese was good, but there was a little too much of it. Loved the roasted garlic (great for spreading on the complimentary bread!) Buttermilk Fried Shrimp (2/5): Only came with 4 shrimp. The shrimp itself wasn't very meaty and it also wasn't fried long enough. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

Wait staff was barely around and food took a whileee to come out and at various times. The food was also good but not great. You can add protein to any item, but for essentially the cost of the meal. Adding turkey sausage was $7 and a small portion (and could have gone without), while the sunrise burrito in total was $10 and massive. I will say there was barely any wait at prime time on Sunday because barely anyone knows it's there.

Best sandwich in Columbia Metro award?…read more I mean yall. What? I be the MOST dramatic on these reviews sometimes bc lol they just read more fun. I'm. Dead. Ass. If yall don't get down to this bad boy and order you the "Chicken Charleston" during our lord and saviors pride month?! HOMOPHOBIA! I didn't know what to order (they literally have the LARGEST menu) and the fabulous front of house baddie said she loved The Charleston so.. I said you know what? LAYGO. 10/10 This was the best dang sandwich I've had in months. It's basically a chicken Philly but they put they whole foot, knee, thigh, and hootenanny into making that bad boy. AND ITS ACROSS FROM THE HOSPITAL SO I CAN JUST MOSEY ON OVER ANY TIME IM IN THIS CENTRALIZED LOCAYSH?! swear SC just wants me to stay fat and sassy atp. Only thing I disliked was the black olives in the pasta salad, but that's a personal preference situation. (Yall can have mine if you wanna meet up for lunch, tuh!) They also have kids eat free nights too! Clearly I don't have any children (kind of difficult to given the whole.. well, it's pride month yfm? Hahaha) but bring the whole fam. Clean, welcoming, good service and decently quick. Thanks everyone! Fr, this rocked.

They had a pretty good size crowd, but everything was still very fluid and perfectly paced. The only negative is that some of the food that is usually delicious tasted very plain and like it had zero seasoning. So disappointing.

I ordered the Chicken platter with fried okra, green beans, and mashed potatoes, and the Fried Pork Chop Platter with cornbread, black-eyed peas, and white rice. I also ordered a jumbo lemonade and a jumbo unsweetened iced tea. My chicken platter was not bad, but the food was cool. My okra tasted old and not fresh. The chicken was crispy but tasted like it was cooked in old grease. My potatoes and green beans were fine. My wife's pork chops were fine, the cornbread was a bit dry, but her black-eyed peas and rice were on point. We never received the lemonade or unsweetened iced tea.

Apparently they don't like younger looking individuals to drink at their bar? Asked me if I came from upstairs or off the street, I mentioned I did in fact come from upstairs (the hub).

I've never in my life been treated in this way anywhere I've ever gone. No explanation or anything just told to leave. Surely was a moment I will not forget.
