    One of our newest foodie spots in Lexington, great addition to the area. This location seemed a bit small in size compared to other Outback's I've been too. They were very busy on a Saturday midday lunch. You can call ahead to reserve a table if needed. We decided to sit at the bar due to time restraints. The bar tender was very attentive and explained all the specials to us. Ive been to Outback's in the past, but we just wanted a good hearty meal. All I needed was consistency in the food, they indeed passed the test. The food came out fresh, seasoned and hot! Service was fast and on point. I would recommend this location, just be patient. When arrive you will always see a long line. There are not alot of steak places in this area. Tip: Go in and enjoy bar service, if available.

    First time going to a Outback Steakhouse. You can call ahead to be on a wait list but they don't take reservations. When we got there on a Saturday for dinner we only had to wait 20 minutes which wasn't bad during Prime time. But we didn't call to be put on the wait list not sure if this helped out or not. They were running a special that included a three-course meal. It included your meal soup or salad and a piece of cheesecake for dessert. They also have a loyalty program that when you first sign up you can get a free appetizer which is the blooming onion a $10.99 value. You just have to give the server your phone number to put it in for you. You also get points for future visits that you can use for discounts. I decided to have the blooming hamburger it was very good and filling it also came with a side you can get. The salad was also good and the cheesecake was delicious. We also tried the blooming onion that was also delicious the dip they serve with it was also very good had a little kick to it. Just the blooming onion was very greasy. They also serve complimentary pumpernickel bread. Our server was Jolene she was very attentive polite and friendly the place was also very clean and tables were cleaned off as soon as people left. It's definitely worth a try if you are near one.

    The ribeye grilled shrimp broccoli

    Outback Steakhouse in Lexington, South Carolina (Sunset Blvd) really impressed me tonight. I stopped in during the dinner rush right after work and was immediately greeted, seated, and welcomed by my server--all within moments. He got my drink order right away, and I was ready to place my full order, which he took and entered without delay. My salad came out quickly and was spot-on: fresh, crisp lettuce with no onion or tomato just like I requested, and the croutons were perfectly crunchy. The bread was soft, warm, and exactly what you hope for at Outback. My steak arrived cooked to perfection--medium, just like I ordered--and had that signature Outback flavor. The broccoli was fantastic, not overcooked or mushy, just fresh and well-prepared. The shrimp were also a win--definitely better than my last Outback visit elsewhere. What really stood out was the service. My server was on point all night and even offered me a to-go unsweet tea for the road, which I really appreciated. That kind of thoughtful touch speaks volumes. I also noticed great teamwork across the staff--everyone seemed to work in sync, which kept everything running smoothly despite the dinner rush. All in all, it was a solid dining experience, and this visit definitely lands in the "better Outback experiences" pile.

    Well done thin bone ribeye, but supposed to be medium rare

    My little family and I came here for dinner on a Monday evening around 6pm. It was pretty packed and there was a 45 minute wait, but we didn't mind the wait. We hung out at the long bar top in the bar area. We were actually seated 35 minutes into our wait, which was great. Our server was great. When it comes to the food, it took a long time for it to come to our table. It's okay because it's to be expected on a busy dinner night. At this point, these were all nonissues to us. When our food came to our table, everything came out correctly. My filet mignon with lobster was absolutely perfect! I mean there was a harmony of flavors going on in my mouth when I took that first bite. A+ chef! The loaded potato was not great. In fact, it wasn't hot and didn't appear to be freshly baked based on how the "melted cheese" wasn't melted and the potato texture wasn't fluffy, but chunky. The asparagus was good. My youngest son liked his cheeseburger very much. My oldest son enjoyed his sirloin steak with macaroni and cheese and potatoes. My husband, however, was disappointed upon the arrival of his boned in ribeye (24 oz maybe?). First thing he noticed was how thin the steak was. The next thing he noticed was how there wasn't much of a bone in his steak at all. There was a very small, thin 3 inch sliver of a bone at the top of his steak when he flipped it over. Then, he sliced it and it was well done, after he ordered it to be cooked medium rare. At that moment, I told him to be "that guy" because he was willing to eat it even with the disappointing cut of meat, but when it came out opposite temperature of what he ordered, that was unacceptable. We showed our server and she was genuinely shocked and disappointed too. She brought it back and when the manager gave my husband a new steak, it was a MUCH better piece of meat, with a real good bone in the middle of it and it was a perfect medium rare. Redemption! Everything about our experience was great except my husband's steak. When you go out to a steakhouse to eat steak, you expect a good steak.

    Absolutely a wonderful and perfect date night. My husband and our son and daughter-in-law. We had a wonderful server Raegan, she took care of us. The manger was fantastic, he offered tot ale photos of us and even joined in a photo with us. So much fun. We loved our food, it was phenomenal! Everything came quickly, served hot and just how we ordered it.

    Dirty Menu

    We came here for my grandma's 76th birthday lunch and were incredibly disappointed. A family member called to make a reservation for our party of 10 several days ago and was told that the reservation had been placed, but upon arriving several minutes before the reserved time, it seemed that the reservation was either forgotten about or ignored. We waited for 30 minutes with no end in sight before asking to just split our group into 2 tables, which ended up being on opposite sides of the restaurant. If a large group reservation wasn't something they were able to accommodate, I wish they would have told us that several days ago so that we could make other arrangements. It took 1 hour for our table of 4 to get our food after being seated. The menus were all gross and filthy somehow despite this place being new (see photo). The steaks were not great. Everyone agreed that the mac & cheese bites were very dry and flavorless. The caesar salad dressing was just really off flavor-wise. The mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, and fries were good, so I guess potatoes are the way to go here. The Outback Boomarita Flight for $10 was really the highlight and the blackberry margarita was a favorite. We asked a woman who appeared to be a manager or supervisor if the staff could sing happy birthday to my grandma, who had wanted to go to Outback for her 76th birthday. At that point, 3 or 4 other tables had already been sung to around us by the staff. She said she would make it happen, but no one ever came. It was incredibly disappointing and truly the final cherry on top of this bad experience that no one ended up singing to her despite not just one, not two, but THREE different party members asking 1) the waitress, 2) the hostess over the phone, 3) the hostess at the front today, and 4) the manager/supervisor for her to be sung to on her birthday. I hope that they are able to improve upon their organization and service quality in the future, but I don't think we will be returning.

They bring a very cute butterfly fruit plate for kids, which I thought was really beautiful and very on target. We tried the Japanese fried chicken appetizer with the sauce on the side. They came in chicken nugget form, and they were really good with a very subtle flavor and fairly crispy. The wedge salad was also tasty along with the garlic bread. We enjoyed the brussels sprouts as well. I ordered the flank steak with mashed potatoes and the corn. The dish was so delicious. Their fries were also really good. The food and the entire dining experience were very pleasing. I love the flavor, and everything tasted fresh. When we return we will try one of the boards.

This new Brazilian restaurant is situated in the heart of Lexington, SC and is a great addition to the local food options. We decided to do a online lunch order. You can order online very easy thru Toast. The staff was very friendly and professional when I went inside to pickup my order. We ordered two chicken bacon wrap bowls after reading a few Google reviews. Their bowl prices are between $9.99-$17.99, and seem to be very affordable. Now the bowls were seasoned very well, and we truly enjoyed the potato salad, plantations, beats, and the proteins. The bowls seem to be full of veggies and very little meat, approx 1oz of chicken and a half strip of bacon. The disappointing part of our meals, neither bowls were well portioned. We felt that both bowls did not have no more than 1-2% of the meats, so we can't really comment on chicken with bacon. We were expecting that the main dish (chicken & bacon) to be at least 25% of the portion size. We did enjoy our lunch options, but after spending $32+ we were both still hungry. We felt like their prices to portions aren't aligned. Vegans will most definitely enjoy all the different flavors in one bowl. Im being generous with my review in hopes they listen to the customers, if they want to be successful in this town. We have Cava and other places that serve bowls close to them, that give a good portion size of protein for the same price or less.

    Hall's Chophouse -- A Perfect Choice for Our 200th Restaurant!…read more Our ROMEO group of 12 visited Hall's Chophouse for lunch today, and what a way to celebrate our 200th restaurant! Since 2015, our group--ROMEO (Retired Old Men Eating Out)--has been working our way through restaurants in Columbia and the surrounding area. For #200, we wanted to go somewhere special. Why not Hall's? A couple of weeks ago, I called Hall's about bringing a party of 12. I was told that parties larger than six should coordinate directly with management. They responded quickly and assured me they would have a table ready for us. And they delivered. We were seated immediately, and several members of the staff quickly got us settled, took our drink orders, explained the day's specials, and answered all of our questions. About a third of our guys had been to Hall's previously with their wives, but this was our first ROMEO visit. I had already made up my mind to order either the burger with Truffle Parmesan Fries or the Shrimp Po' Boy. Then our waitress mentioned that the special of the day was a Cuban Sandwich. The way she described it sold me, and I immediately changed course. I went with the Cuban and the Truffle Parmesan Fries. Around the table we had four or five burgers, a Steak & Frites, several Prime Rib Sandwiches, and a Chicken Caesar Salad. There wasn't a bad-looking plate in the bunch. While we waited, Hall's brought out some excellent bread and butter for the table. Our waitress also noticed us trying to take a couple of pictures of the group and immediately offered to take our photo. She was a gem. She took several shots from different angles--including one from up at the bar. It reminded me of the old Alice's Restaurant song by Arlo Guthrie, where he talks about having "26 8x10 color glossy photographs." Fortunately, we didn't make her take quite that many. Then the food arrived. It's funny how there can be plenty of conversation going on around the table--until the food shows up. Then suddenly, 12 ROMEO guys become very quiet. Apparently, eating takes priority over conversation. And that brings me to the Cuban Sandwich. It was the best Cuban sandwich I have ever had. And I really like Cuban sandwiches. The pork was plentiful and incredibly tender--it practically melted in your mouth. The cheese and mustard were perfectly balanced, and the bread was pressed to that wonderful crispy, panini-like texture. Paired with the Truffle Parmesan Fries, it was an outstanding lunch. The comments around the table were overwhelmingly positive. The only minor complaint I heard was from two of the Prime Rib Sandwich guys, who thought theirs was a little salty. Apparently, it wasn't that salty, because both still gave their meals a 9.5/10. As always, each ROMEO member independently rates the restaurant. And Hall's did something no other restaurant has managed to do in our first 200 visits: Hall's Chophouse received the highest rating we've ever given a restaurant. Our group average was an incredible 9.71 out of 10. On the ROMEO scale, that's a Yelp 5.0 without hesitation. For our 200th restaurant, we couldn't have picked a better place. Great food, outstanding service, a beautiful setting, and a staff that made our group feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Hall's Chophouse--#200 for ROMEO, and now #1 in our ratings. That's a pretty impressive way to reach the 200 mark!

The restaurant location is across from the State House, so I'd anticipate that they get quite a diverse cross section of visitors at the restaurant. I could tell from the moment we arrived that the hostesses were professional and got us to a table that was comfortable and had a view of the dining room. We had originally intended to sit outside where the view is more interesting, but on this day the heat was just too much. Our server, Megan approached quickly and went over a presentation of meat types and preparation styles, and quickly got us some drinks. She was efficient and professional throughout the meal. I had a wonderful fillet with some sauteed spinach, and it was all quite tasty. With a price averaging about $90 per person all in, including soft drinks, tip and tax, it's a higher end restaurant for the area, but certainly a reasonable value overall. For those visiting from out of town as we were, you should definitely take the time to either walk across Gervais Street to visit the State House, or head in the opposite direction along main Street and visit the downtown area. Halls is a wonderful centerpiece and represents Columbia well. At the end of the meal, they asked for my address, at which point I sarcastically said to my wife quote what are they going to do, mail me a thank you card?" Well, they did mail me a thank you card, a very nice touch, and appreciated. A truly first class move.
