The best Mexican restaurant in SC and I have tried many. I recommend "Mushroom Quesadilla", "Pollo Fundido", "Camaron al Ajo", "Quesadilla Mexicana". If you are REAL hungry or if there are 4 in your party, try "Parrillada for Two" with extra refried beans and taco shells. You will not be disappoin...
Empty for a good reason. The food was seasoned only with [too much] salt and the server could not have cared less that it was poorly made. There was no one at the desk on the way out to mention the problems to.
This used to be our favorite Mexican restaurant when I left Columbia 5 years ago. I just moved back here and went to the Monterry for dinner on Saturday night. Couln't figure out why the place was so empty, I can remember having to wait for a table in the past. It became apparent very soon-the servi...
I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but when I tried this place I had to keep going back. Great lunch specials and excellent food quality!
Love the food! Great soups, cheesesteaks, pizza and desserts....good place to be with co-workers or friends.
Saw the article in the State paper and stopped by for the first time today. They were busy, but we got our food quickly and it was delicious. Great service and loved the cheese steak! Next time we will try the pizza.
Wonderful! Outstanding! One of Columbia's best kept secrets when it comes to authentic Japanese food and sushi!!
Saki was amazing place due to their authentic style and fresh fish. You can die happy once you eat here.
Freshest fish in South Carolina!!!
Every bite of their food is amazing. Saki is the only place that has special rolls such as Birthday roll, Columbia roll, and Bento boxes. You cannot find these anywhere else here in Columbia. It provides so much flavor you would not believe it. Most importantly, everything there is homemade. Mo...
My husband and I have been eating at Saki for years. We love it!
I've always been a lot skittish of trying raw fish or anything that seemed out of the ordinary to me but this restaurant is SO good I even mustered up the courage to try eel and LOVE it. They offer dishes for those who don't like seafood, but if you're a first time sushi eater, I would recommend yo...
Perfect place for a romantic dinner or for a group gathering. The food is absolutely amazing and the staff is the best in the entire city. You will not regret this experience.
I finally tried Saluda's after hearing about how good it is from several friends in my office. I was not disappointed! The ambience was amazing from the start. I loved the tall ceilings, wooden floors and the low lighting. It had a very cosmopolitan feel. The service was good but the food was the r...
Love the food. The price of drinks is through the roof!
Sarku Japan is my favorite place to eat. My daughter loves it too. The food is good and healthy and the personnel are always courteous and friendly.
I crave for the Chicken Teriaki every week. The first time I tried it, I was hooked.
The food here is really good and they have low prices you can't get that these days being that we are in a recession. On Monday the crab is $17.99 and on Thursday it is $13.99. But, it's good and I'm going back there on Monday!
If you like heavy rock blaring at you, slow, lackluster service and tables that need cleaning, then you found the right place.When they're not talking to their friends, who they've allowed behind the counter, they may have time to sloooowly wait on you. We've tried it too many times to admit to. It'...
We go by the Subway shop on St. Andrews to get to this one. The staff is always professional and very efficient. the breads, meats, and fixings are always fresh and delicious. they could bake their cookies a little longer. Always very clean and tables are always wiped down and ready for you.If you'r...
