    The table was set up nicely
    Veronica H.

    The food was amazing. The service was over the top and the place looks amazing. It's like finding a nice place in a town that isn't too busy but this was the spot.

    Food is delicious and definitely reasonable!

    Another amazing meal at Gene's restaurant. On Saturdays they serve breakfast until they close at 2 PM. The country ham at this place is the best I've ever eaten. The hashbrowns or crispy and the eggs over easy or perfect. Not to mention the great coffee! I highly recommend coming here.

    Chiken Pot Pie with 3 sides!

    based on reviews we chose Legends Steakhouse for my birthday dinner before the Joe Nichols concert…read more Great choice! I had the Filet with mushrooms and a side house salad. Even the salad was better than most but the filet was melt in your mouth and truly wonderful and the mushrooms had such a great flavor I had to ask the owner how they were prepared. Truly an exceptional meal and I enjoyed every bite. My husband chose the ribeye with loaded mashed potatoes and salad and was very happy with his meal too. The atmosphere was casual and nice. The owner mentioned they fed the band that day too. I hope they enjoyed their meals as much as we enjoyed the meal and show too. A very nice birthday date. We will be back before future shows in Newberry. I would attach a photo but it would be of Joe Nichols instead of my steak

    Wow, came to the area for a fishing guide trip and me and a few buddies wanted to have a steak…read moredinner. With low expectations we hit Legends which is in a strip mall with Food Lion. We were warmly greeted by Holly who sat us and took excellent care of us. For a sparse Monday night we were blown away by the quality of the food to come. Filet mignon was cooked to absolute perfection and the quality of the meat left nothing to desire. Sides of asparagas and Cajun cole slaw held up as well! A true gem for this sweet little city, hopefully they take advantage of what this place we has to offer.
