My wife and I enjoyed a delicious Spanokopita dish that was prepared perfectly. The phyllo crust was flaky and enclosed a delicious combination of cheese and spinach seasoned to perfection with traditional eastern mediterranean spices. The included fresh pita slices with homemade tzatziki sauce and greek salad rounded out a perfect dinner for us. We are going to add El-Sherif's to our list of go to places in the Cheraw area.

However, El-Sherif's brings a nice Mediterranean taste to north central South Carolina. Sure they offer some of the standard American classics but they also offer some tasty Greek and Italian specialties as well. The inside of the restaurant is set up nicely, albeit a little older but still nice. Nothing fancy. The server came around to us almost an immediately and took our drink orders and left us to go through the menu. I knew I was getting a gyro before we even got there but I substituted the fries for rice. My wife got a cheesesteak and fries. Both were delicious. I was actually quite surprised the gyro was as good as it was. The lamb just popped in your mist and the seasonings couldn't be any better. My wife's cheesesteak was probably the best I've tasted anywhere south of Maryland. What separates the cheesecakes here apart from almost every other place I've been to is that they actually season the meat. I'm quite sure that it's the same seasoning they use on the meat for the gyros but I could be wrong. Either way, it was delicious. Definitely worth a swing by if you're in Cheraw.

My rating has dropped a bit since my last review…read more Here's why: 1. The price has jumped to $10 per person without any exciting new offering to warrant such an increase. 2. They have always cut their chicken breasts in half before frying (a common yet annoying practice in this area). Now they have decided to cut up all the chicken into small pieces so unless you find a leg, you can't tell which is white and which is dark...just weird! 3. It used to be a totally self service deal. You get your own food, drinks and refills, etc... Now they have a flock of teenagers sitting around in uniform shirts, they are not clearing plates, they might refill a glass of tea, but doubtful, mostly just talking and texting, but somehow expect a tip...wtf??? In a town with not much to offer that doesn't involve answering "Do you want fries with that?" it is still an okay place to eat on a Sunday afternoon, but I am not nearly as excited about it as I once was...

He was SO hospitable, sweet and genuinely welcoming. He gave great recommendations and did not steer us wrong. These days, it's not always easy to come across service like that, which made it even more appreciated. I ordered the Sunset Blush drink and it was delicious. We also got the cornbread and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the BEST cornbread I've ever had. So soft and flavorful. The brisket sandwich was a little dry (could be because we went during closing) but still had really good flavor. The mac and cheese though... WOW. I am very picky with mac and cheese and most places miss the mark, but this tasted homemade. Easily a 10/10. My husband got the peach bourbon burger and said it was great. The kids ate everything in sight which is always a win...lastly the cinnamon roll cheesecake for dessert... phenomenal!!! Overall such a great experience and I'm really glad we stopped in!

I rarely leave reviews like this, but after our experience at Wholly Smokin' BBQ & Ribs, it feels…read morewarranted. After driving 15 hours on March 21, 2026, my husband and I were genuinely excited to try this place and planned to take our food back to the hotel. Unfortunately, the experience started off poorly and never really recovered. First, parking is extremely limited out front, which is frustrating when you're tired and just want a quick pickup. Inside, things only got worse. The front-of-house staff was shockingly unprofessional. The employee helping us clearly didn't understand her job and had to be corrected multiple times by another staff member--something no customer should have to witness. It created confusion, delays, and zero confidence in our order. We paid about $50 for a sampler, which is not cheap, and yet the same employee argued about giving us the sides because she entered the order incorrectly. If another, more competent employee hadn't stepped in, I'm convinced it would have escalated further. Even then, we never received one of the four sides we paid for. To make matters worse, we were never asked if we wanted drinks to go, and we weren't given plates, silverware, or even BBQ sauce--basic essentials for a takeout order. That's just unacceptable. While waiting, we also watched this same employee tell three separate dine-in families to go sit and wait while she stood there rolling silverware. Completely rude and dismissive. If I had been one of those customers, I would have walked out. This is the first impression customers get, and it's a terrible reflection of how the place is run. Between the disorganization, poor communication, and outright unfriendly behavior, the service was a mess. The only reason this isn't a one-star review is because the food itself was actually very good. The burnt ends and ribs were the standout--absolutely delicious. But great BBQ can't fully make up for such a frustrating and poorly managed customer experience.
