Chicken power salad
Ophelia M.

I was in the Columbia area and needed some lunch on the fly. Additionally, I was hoping for something healthier than many fast casual/quick options. Groucho's Deli to the rescue! Groucho's is a regional chain with most locations in South Carolina (and a couple in North Carolina and one in Georgia). That said, it all started in Columbia in 1941 with Harold "Groucho" Miller. I love the story that he dreamed up recipes during childhood living in the orphanage in Philadelphia, made his way to Columbia with those recipes and the rest if Groucho's Deli history. They serve up a wonderful variety of sandwiches and an impressive variety of salads as well. I opted for the chicken power salad, which consisted of a bed of crisp and fresh greens, feta, greek olives, cucumber, tomato, and sliced chicken breast marinated in their Italian dressing. It was exactly what I was looking for--filling, fresh, veggie filled fabulousness. I didn't dine in but got my salad delivered and it was well packaged and cool and fresh on arrival. Get to it!

I feel like this place is trying to stay under the radar... or maybe it's a mostly locals only situation... After a day of walking through Congaree National Park I was craving a salad and searched yelp as my brother drove.. out of all the places I picked her and BAM!! Simple done wonderful! I had My Wife's Salad- it the spot perfectly! Added the pasta salad and it was great! He had a Greek type salad and loved it- so much chicken. The only thing we would both add is red onions. Kimberly H was our server and she was great! THIS IS A MUST STOP IF YOU ARE DRIVING THRU!

We were driving through town and were looking for a quick bite to eat with lots of options for our family of 4 and my in-laws. This place is definitely family friendly. The staff was so nice and helpful as this was our first time visiting and it did take a minute to read over the menu. And I fully intended to take pictures of our food but when it came we all dug in so fast that it was gone by the time I remembered I meant to take a picture! But I highly recommend the BLC Chicken Critter. We also had 2 people order the mid east special. They have a few homemade sauces and they were surprisingly good. Overall a very great experience, I would eat here again if I saw one or was in town again!

Great place for a big sandwich. I ended up taking half of it with me for a meal later. They make everything fresh and it shows. Very good stuff!

The famous Big *STP Dipper

The food was amazing. This was a big chance stop the outside appearance was not the best. However it t was well worth it. I was so excited to try their delicious sandwiches I read about on yelp and trust me everything about the reviews are accurate. The first bite I had to order another sandwich to go. The sandwich was that good on the way out they had homemade chocolate chip cookies they were amazing I got 4 of those. Great food and great service. The only thing negative is they need to do some renovation in the inside it was supper outdated and very 1980 ish however the food was Excellent great job!

What a great locally owned hot deli. They have a pretty expansive menu. It's in West Columbia, not…read moretoo far from Zestos and The Healing Bar. There's plenty of parking. They have some outside seating set up for a beautiful day. There are also places to sit and dine inside.   I did a pickup order via phone, but I believe you can order online as well. It was two staff, someone cooking and someone in front. Everyone was pleasant. The prices are good too.   Okay, let's get to the food. Pictured is the BLT and the fried chicken sandwich with bacon. I did not try the BLT. The fried chicken sandwich was pretty good. It was heavy, but I enjoyed it! The flavor wasn't too strong, yet it blended well with the bacon. The cheese sticks were okay. The fries were fresh and delicious. Every thing was made to order. The portions are great. It's worth a try, and I will be back to try more.

I saw a triple cheeseburger from this place on Facebook and convinced my two friends to go that…read moresame day. None of us got the triple cheeseburger though. All singles for us with fries. Still a big burger. The cheeseburger was very tasty and wonderfully priced considering it being 2014. The fries were great, too. It's a small place. You order at the counter and then can sit down at one of two booths indoors. (It may have been three booths.) It gives meaning to the term "hole in the wall." We decided we'd get ours t go next time and go to the nearby riverwalk to eat at a bench. No fountain drinks, since it's a deli. You get a can drink out of the cooler. We each got two cans though and drank them with the meal. I hope this place sticks around. I believe it opened in November 2024. And hopefully the owners can move to a more user-friendly location.

I was not too impressed with my trip to DiPratos, which was disappointing because it had been…read morerecommended to me by several different people, and I was excited to try it out. I came in a few minutes after 10:00 a.m., the time they open, and while I don't expect a restaurant to be in tip-top shape the second they open, they did not seem at all ready for the day or to accept customers. I stood at the front for a few awkward moments before asking one of the hostesses if I was supposed to seat myself, when she replied "oh no, I'll seat you", and then led me to one of the nearby tables. Somewhat grossly, the tablecloth on the table I was seated at was covered with coffee stains from previous guests, which was kind of unsettling. I then asked for a cup of coffee, and was told that there wasn't any ready, and that I would need to wait a few minutes. Again, not a huge deal, but I would expect a breakfast restaurant to have some coffee ready by the time that they open. Second, when perusing the menu, I was not particularly impressed by their "limited breakfast" options, nor anything on their regular menu. I decided to go with a simple hot dog, and substituted the offered sides with an order of French fries, which ridiculously cost me almost $4 extra. In addition, my hot dog was fine, but nothing exceptional, and definitely not better than one I could've gotten at Costco for a markedly cheaper price. The one (1) bright spot was that the fries were very good, and of higher quality than most other fries I've gotten at similar restaurants. Finally, my server was nice enough, but a little rough around the edges and not overly attentive. In addition, the ambiance was pretty basic, with nothing about it that really stuck out. All-in-all, I wouldn't be adverse to returning to DiPratos on a Saturday or Sunday to try their breakfast menu, but I won't be coming back during the week, and wouldn't really recommend that anybody else do so either.

I've only tasted their pimento cheese at the festival and the original is phenomenal! I'd purchase…read moreagain. Friendly staff! I'd definitely check out their restaurant/deli soon!
