For food, I ordered the fried pork chops with Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes (gravy on the side). While fried pork chops were tasty and well seasoned, the mashed potatoes had the perfect texture but lack any seasoning. Very very plain. Mac n cheese was a hard pass. I ate one noodle and quickly pushed the whole bowl to the side. I also had a margarita, usually a pretty easy drink to make. This one had a bit too much sour mix. My husband had the ribs with mashed sweet potatoes and parmesan French fries. The sweet potatoes and ribs were tasty but fries were a pass. Our server was very sweet and attentive. Overall, it was a mixed experience. Some parts were really good, others not so much. But don't let this review deter you from trying Backstreets as we love the Columbia location.

The pizza was excellent and I made sure to tell the oven masters before I left. The restaurant itself was exceptionally clean, cozy and enjoyable. The ONLY thing wrong was when we first walked in the smell of the carpet is VERY off putting. That's why I'm not giving a 5 star review. We nearly walked right back out, but noticed the condition of the rest of the dining room was ok. PLEASE get new carpet. Other than that, Fantastic.
