    The menu read far better than the food that we had. The lobster bisque was for me too salty and thickened. The grouper that I ordered was nicely done but the hollandaise sauce described as containing lump crab did not in fact contain anything and as a crab lover I was disappointed . I can’t review the meals of the other 3 diners as I did not try them. Overall we still had a good night but my expectations were higher.

    Waited 45 minutes for a simple appetizer, and longer for our entrees. Then the hostess arrived at our table basically asking us to leave as they had another diner whose reservation time was next. There were NINE open tables directly in front of us. Unbelievable…and am not going there again.

    Food and service was great. Guy bar tender wasn’t the most friendly person but drinks were prepared nicely. Also, we’re out of certain things that they normally carry.

    One of our favorite rested in the area. Greatblocatuon on the square in historic Pendleton. The food is yummy, from the delicious burgers to the amazing sushi. And quite a bonus for bogo sushi night on Tuesdays. The atmosphere is nice and the staff friendly. A must try if out antique hunting or going to nearby Clemson.

    We enjoyed dinner, everything fulfilled our expectations except your creme brule, which was a total disappointment; we should have sent it back and not paid for it.

    Somewhat disappointed compared to prior visits. Was ordering sushi and was convinced to order a second roll for 1/2 price. The 2nd roll was awful. It was torched and had a terrible burnt taste. This was not in the description on the menu. When the waitress took our plates away and saw that we had hardly eaten any of it she told us that many guests don’t really like that one. Would have been nice to know when we were ordering.
