    Never heard of City Barbecue! Stopped for lunch when driving through Rock Hill. I was pleasantly surprised! Service, food, and ambiance was 10/10. You order at the counter and your order is brought out to you. There is a self serve sauce and condiment bar as well. My fave was the mustard based sauce. The sweet one was good as well. I ordered the pastrami sandwich and hand cut fries. The pastrami was sliced thin and melted in my mouth. The lemonade was a perfect blend of sour and sweet. I sat outside, it was a perfect day! I look forward to returning when I'm back in town.

    This is delicious! The pork and pickled onions and queso and sauce are a great combination! The service is great and again I choose to eat on the patio. That's always a winner for me. Less noise and fresh air!

Bathrooms: the bathrooms where clean and nice but really easy to clog the poor person before me. 3 out of 5 Ambiance: it is a diner I feel like it checked that box. 4 out 5 Service: we did come in with a small group about 8-9 people so I understand the stress the waiter may have had with keeping up with everyone. But over all her personality was to the point. 3.5 out of 5 Food: was not that memorable but this is expected from a dinner so it fits the mold of a dinner. 3 out 5 Over all: this review is from a month ago and this is the best I can remember this place for Lancaster it is what it is. Nothing more nothing less. Happy they have options. 3 out of 5 If you are in the area and really hungry give it a try.

    Jay Bird's serves up diner feels with friendly service and large portions of food. We've been here…read moreseveral times.It feels like a diner without being overly themed. It's not a lot of space so only a few tables can accommodate more than four people. For the menu, here are daily specials and most items can be in a combo. Also, there are kids meals and my daughter actually eats her Mac and cheese here so kid approved.Think burgers, hot sandwiches and fried shrimp for the menu. There are a few healthier options like salad, grilled chicken sandwich or grilled tenders. My first visit I ordered a shrimp po boy and tots. It was so full of shrimp they kept falling off but were light and crispy on a soft bread. Tots were a little greasy for me. But on another visit I got the sweet potato fries without cinnamon sugar and that's probably my favorite side. My husband has enjoyed his burger there as well. I didn't try the ice cream but my daughter did and she enjoyed it. It's a nice family friendly option and we'll add it to our rotation.

    We had such a great experience here! We came in during the last hour before closing (which always…read moremakes me a little nervous), but everything was still super fresh, came out quickly, and never felt rushed. Ashley was our server and she was amazing -- very attentive, friendly, and gave great recommendations. She really made the experience even better. We started with the pork belly skewers topped with ranch, BBQ, crushed cashews, and pickled red onions -- 10/10. Huge portion and packed with flavor. The balance of sweet, tangy, and crunchy was perfect. The chicken Caesar sandwich was sooo good. It's a massive sandwich with a crispy chicken cutlet topped with Caesar salad, pickled red onions, and chickpeas. Fair warning: it's a little hard to eat because of the size, but completely worth it. The dressing leans more vinegar-forward than creamy, which I personally loved. I'd honestly order it again just as a salad. The truffle parm fries were another 10/10 -- loaded with parmesan and full of flavor. The stout braised beef melt was amazing. Tons of meat and the flavors blended together perfectly. Definitely a standout. The pub chips with added Cajun seasoning were okay -- not bad, just nothing super special compared to everything else. As longtime fans of their previous food truck, we're so impressed with what they've grown into as a restaurant. It's clear they've kept the quality while elevating the whole experience. We'll absolutely be back!

    came from Charlotte to try Elk Ave Tavern after seeing a TikTok food review claiming it had one of…read morethe "top five cheesesteaks," so I went in with pretty high expectations. Unfortunately, I left feeling very disappointed. I ordered the cheesesteak, which was the main reason for my visit, and it just didn't live up to the hype. The bread was soggy, the meat was very small diced instead of the ribeye-style cuts you'd expect from a good cheesesteak, and the cheese tasted more like Kraft than anything premium. Overall, it was very bland and lacked the flavor I was hoping for. For $18 and about a 20-minute drive, I honestly expected much more. On the positive side, the Brussels sprouts were amazing -- easily the standout item from my visit. They were flavorful and cooked really well. The fries were fine too, but fries are fries and it's hard to mess those up. The staff were very nice and attentive, and the food came out in about 10-15 minutes, which I appreciated. The restaurant itself is a small, quaint place located in downtown Rock Hill across from the public library. I didn't have trouble parking, but it was around 12:30 on a Wednesday and the lot and nearby street parking were both pretty full, so I could see it being tighter during busier times. I also noticed this location used to be called Sweet Tea back around 2020 when they served chicken and waffles, so it was interesting to see how the space has changed. The menu overall isn't very large, and since I mainly came for the cheesesteak and it didn't meet my expectations, I don't see myself returning. In my personal opinion, Cheat's Cheesesteak Parlor still has the best cheesesteak in Charlotte and the surrounding areas. I really wanted to love this place, but based on this visit, it just didn't deliver for me.

My sister-in-laws hubby had a burger with Southern potato salad, with 2 or 3 "Copper" brews [I wasn't as familiar with his beer choice as he apparently was ]. I had a cabernet, and 2 sides: pasta salad & Southern Potato salad. I was stunned how the girls tore into the wings. Both ladies are petite, delicate eaters...or so I thought. Their club was so large they only were able to eat half. My tater salad was to die for...better that my Mom's, an old-school farm girl who knows southern cookin'...backwards and forwards. The pasta salad was just as good. Both were seasoned just right. The tubers were fully cooked and soft.... just like they're supposed to be. These sides sound simple to make. But it ain't so simple to make them this tasty. If you eat at Outsiders you"ll find out their chef really knows his (Her?) stuff. If you're expecting typical bar-food, you're gonna get surprised. They know how to prepare real tasty food. The icing on the cake was our hostess, Valencia. She was as professional and efficient as she is attractive. The owner was also kind enough to stop and chat. We had such a pleasant evening and a delicious meal to boot. Good job folks...
