How long has it been since you have heard something like that? Talk to the waitresses here... you will hear things like "I've been here for 19 years, and just love the place." These are the sort of people who you just know are the best grandparents on the planet. I've been a few times for Breakfast and have enjoyed every meal I have had... BTW their Sour Dough Toast is the best... I usually get the special, two eggs, bacon, toast, grits... I know it's hard to mess up breakfast. The coffee is good. The service is just like I got from my grandparents. These people are the salt of the earth. More than once I've given $100 for a tip. Yesterday morning the lady checking me out said "I think you made a mistake on your tip." I said "No Ma'am, I was shooting for 200% and that's pretty close"... She offered me a piece of cake to take home. :-) These people are simply your grandparents, your Sunday school teachers, Aunt "B" from Mayberry... You really have to go by and experience the best people the USA has to offer. If you go and you agree that the folks here represent the best we have to offer, leave them a tip like you just ate the best meal of your life.

We were out house hunting in the Anderson SC area and our realtor found this place on Yelp. We are…read moreso glad we stopped in here for lunch. I'm always on the hunt for Old Style Family restaurant's and this place did not disappoint. A lot of choices on the menu, decided to try their Club Sandwich. The bread was some of the best on a sandwich I have ever had, nice and soft and not too little or too much bread where it overpowers the rest of the sandwich. Every bit of the sandwich and fries was tasty (picture was from their website- forgot to take one). The service was friendly, didn't take long at all before we had our food and they were attentive but not annoying. For those that love the old style family restaurant's, this is a must visit.

Upon arrival, the building looks new and pleasant to the eye. When I entered, the hostess was very…read morenice and had a huge smile on her face very welcoming. Upon entry, everything looked good she brought us to the table. The first thing I noticed is the booth backside has some weird buttons that are broken and half hanging out of the seat which caught my shirt then we were agreed by a waitress who had absolutely no personality whatsoever. Because we were working all of us went to the restrooms to wash up. The restroom is old. The stall door does not lock properly, and I felt like it was just dingy and somewhat not lit properly and dirty. I ordered the baby club with onion rings my friend ordered the turkey plate with dressing. My baby turkey club was OK. It taste good but I wouldn't say it was exceptional. It was just average. I upgraded and paid extra for onion rings because I absolutely love onion rings however, I was very much disappointed in the onion Rings. First of all the coding on the onion rings is super thick and heavy when they were served to me the onion rings were cold with that thick layer of cornmeal. They were very tough and unappealing absolutely no flavor. You could barely taste the onion so then I decided to peel off all of the breading and try the onion within, and it was a fresh onion very sweet very good, but I was very disappointed. Lastly, my dish came with coleslaw. This to me was the absolute best coleslaw. I've had Don't a while and it was the hit of my dish and I absolutely loved it my partner at lunch. He liked his turkey with dressing meal. He said it was good but it wasn't fabulous or anything. It was just as he says it is what it is. I don't know that I'll go back. The only thing I may decide to do is if they serve breakfast, I may try them as a breakfast place and see if they do better.

This was by far the best meal we've had in this area! The focaccia was so tender…read more Our entrees were nearly perfect. Seasoning and sauces were fantastic. Then we get to the desserts... We could not believe how smooth the creme brulee was. The torched sugar on top provided the shell you're looking for but was so thin and brittle! The best I've ever had. Now on to that kiss of air called pavlova. 1st of all the berries were definitely fresh. Each had the most perfect flavor, like you just picked them yourself. The merengue was so light.... You spoon it in your mouth and it just evaporates. How can it be so light, yet still resist your spoon in a way that deceives you into thinking it will be too sweet, and heavy? No, it's flavored air. Now onto the service. Very welcoming as soon as we entered. Our server couldn't have been better. Delightful to talk to, knowledgeable of the food and it's sources. Such a pleasure. We dine out frequently and this experience was much better than the last Michelin recommendation we visited. Excellent work Element! You are a gem!

I've never felt compelled to write a review for a restaurant before…read more This was the worst dining experience of my entire life. For a two top we had to wait an hour to get an appetizer that came out cold, then another 45 minutes to have the main course sent out. It came out cold and they forgot one of the two dishes entirely. We were then told the order for the second person would be out shortly and waited another 20 minutes, after which we asked for the check and left. The wait staff was terrible, the bar tender was on her phone and not checking on people at the bar or taking on the task of pouring a beer, for which I had to wait 25 minutes after ordering while she was on her phone. When the bartender was not on her phone she was making an attempt at flirting with another worker in the building. Overall, I would highly recommend going anywhere else nearby. The only positive aspect here would be the environment. It was decent and clean. So I would say if you are interested in going here you should only go for the $2.75 beers during happy hour. Cheers, Steddy's. I will never go back for this overpriced miserable food.

There was a crowd building at about 10:45am in anticipation of the 11am opening. I braved the wind and stood with everyone else.

I settled on fried whole wings, mac and cheese, creamed corn and broccoli casserole. There was a piece of corn bread on the side as well. Next time, I will choose something other than the broccoli casserole... it wasn't a favorite. I truly enjoy a small business and this was a must return place.
