Carne Asada

Food and service are incredible. I'm passing through, and I'm bummed this place isn't closer to home. I got the carne asada tacos, amazing. Chips are perfect, crispy and light, salted to perfection. HIGHLY recommend

Kris W.

Betraying my roots, as an El Jimadors fanatic, I headed to Monterreys. The battle between the two Mexican restaurants is not faux- I promised to keep an open mind, but after a few bites of my meal, I knew I had made a mistake. El Jimadors is my omega. I ordered the fish tacos at Monterrays, being a fish taco lover, I was underwhelmed and unimpressed with their take of this delicious dish. Betraying my roots proved my self distaste and failure.

Service is horrible. The worst I've had. Waited over 30 minutes to even talk to a hostess. Management needs to be fixed. Disappointed.

Meh, it's definitely better than some of the other Mexican restaurants, but it was pretty sub-par.

Well, if you are a snob with an attitude, this may not be your place! But if you like a cheap bear,…read moretop notch-friendly and family-like atmosphere, and cool, friendly people and old-school stuff, then keep on reading. You turn onto Sloane Ave. from College Blvd., just across from the back entrance/valet of the Shepherd Hotel. It's a small bar and, of course, a dive with lots of graffiti. They are usually open until 7 PM. It's not your late-night college bar, although a bunch of college regulars will also flock to the place. They have a pool table. You also can play your music all day/evening long! Classic Rock is the vibe, though. Two drafts on tap. Nati Light and Narragansett Lager. Draft for a dollar and a pitcher for seven bucks! Yes, I typed that right! Besides, most domestic beers are available for about three bucks each. All are served with a koozie. All you can get is only popcorn with your beer, but you can bring your pizza and have a good time with your friends. Hey, you got it! Jimmy, Beth, and Sydney are awesome behind the bar and make your day better! They will make you feel welcome and greet you by your name every time. One Sydney shared a great story, and I thought that was awesome! Sydney, a Political Science major at Clemson, told her Dad that she got a bartending job, and her Dad was not happy about that, and Then she said to him that she got that job at the "Sloane Street Tap Room," and her Dad was surprisingly silent! She nervously asked, "What, Dad?." Dad slowly answered, "I worked there too when I was at Clemson!." Wow!!! Congratulations, Sydney, you are not only a legacy student at Clemson, but you are also a legacy bartender too! How cool is that? Sloane Street Tap Room is different! Check it out!

If cheap beer and bad jokes are your thing, then this is the place for you. Jimmy Howard is a trip!read more

My new favorite restaurant in the Clemson area! Stopped in on Saturday night for dinner and it was…read morea great experience! The restaurant was very busy and there was a little bit of a wait. The inside, outside, and bar are all seated on the waiting list. They sat the 2 of us at the bar and it was a fun experience. The bartender made great recommendations and was very knowledgeable about the menu. They have 8 draft beers on tap and a large cocktail menu. We started off with the crispy brussels and it was excellent. The balsamic honey reduction was a nice addition to the appetizer. We got two sandwiches (chimichurri steak press and brisket reuben) and both were very good and recommended by the bartender. I enjoyed the fries a little more than the chips for a side item. Definitely plan on coming back to this restaurant the next time I'm up in Clemson!

On a visit to Clemson for grad schools we wanted to get the feel of the town and it seemed like…read moreevolve kitchen was a solid place people to gather. The bar has seating for about 12 to 15 and it is open style and very loud as evidenced by the noise baffles hanging from the ceiling. Our server was so sweet she took the time to explain that she too is a Clemson student and went into depth on the menu. I got the French dip and you can add three wings to your meal which seems like a good idea at the time. Also I swapped out the fries for a salad because I'm chunky. My wife and daughter at the burger and chicken tacos respectively, Burger was indeed tasty and the tacos were on point. Place seems to die down about 8:30 but it was the first week back from school break but you can tell this is a local favorite especially when the parents come in town! If things go well and we end up sending our daughter to Clemson we will definitely be back to evolve!
