    Chicken bowl
    Carey J.

    Food was seasoned well and good portion for $10.99 chicken bowl. The eggplant, plantains, chicken, rice and beans all flavorful, enjoyed them. Some of the chicken was dark meat and a little chewy. Hopefully the steak and shrimp quality is better. Service was good, staff was friendly and helpful.

    Patrick Bradshaw a…read moreday ago New $90-100 We went here for my birthday. This is a nice upscale restaurant that allows the guests to be casual. The waitress (Makala, not sure, it was May 6) was awesome and so were the servers. They put us in a private room space with a few tables. It was great until a 7 top arrived. All women and chatty and loud for the small room...fortunately, we were close to being finished when the hen club arrived. They ruined the atmosphere. My suggestion, dont put small parties in that small room when a large party is coming in also. It is too small a room with all hard surfaces for that noise level. And yes, the other two small tables noticed the noise in my opinion. The food, well the food was great! The filets we had were cooked rare as ordered. They do a french frie service instead of bread service. Those fries are fried in duck fat. So delicious! We had asparagus, lobster mashed taters and mushrooms with our steak. All prepared excellently and delicious. You've hear of Halls Chophouse? This place is better! Have you heard of NY Prime in Myrtle Beach? This place is their equal. And, I consider them the best steakhouse there is. This place is better than Millpond Steakhouse in Rembert, SC. So, take my advice, for one of the absolute best meals and services, go to Embers in Lexington, SC. ( to Embers, keep striving to improve. Never rest on good feedback. Also, one suggestion, blister those grapes tomatoes served as garnish with the steak) Oh, prices, yes they are a little higher than low end places like Outback or Texas Roadhouse or Longhorns but the price is a great price for the steaks served here. Prime meats not choice grade meats. If you want a good steak go to one of those places, but if you want an excellent steak, go to Ember... Wheelchair accessibility If you park in the rear, the only wheelchair route is aroUnd the building on public ways that seem to be a good bit steeper than allowed by A.D.A. No proper accessible route that I saw from the rear main parking area. If you are in a wheelchair, and have a driver, get them to drop you off at the front of the building.

Lights were dim, music matched the tone. We had a blast trying 3 appetizers, and 3 main courses and 3 desserts. Everything was 10/10 and then some. Forgot to take a pic of the main course

    Yelp isn't letting me just add a tip so here is my tip review. Ordered to-go French dip sandwiches…read moreand all 3 orders was missing the au jus. Disappointing esp since we live 30 min away. I got the BLT with avocado and only one half of my pre-cut sandwich had avocado. I also got the tortilla soup and it was great! If you can't do a little spicy, move along. The tip is check your To-go orders to make sure nothing is missing.

    I've been coming with my family to this location for just over three years now and have to say the…read moreconsistency of service and food has been the best. It's also part of the experience when we go dine out and every time I've come with family or on my own I've always seen a friendly face who takes the time to greet, chat and just be a little extra thoughtful. I've taken the time to notice that the general manager works tirelessly to check on patrons, introducing himself and ensure orders are enjoyed. He has also hired some of the most out going and kindest staff, I truly enjoy their smiles and feel welcome when I visit for my next order. It's one thing to go out for a meal but it's experiencing good food with a pleasant environment. I believe that making this an extra stop for a fresh ice tea with their tea pass or a healthier option for lunch is worth it. If I could suggest one improvement , while it is big, I'd love to see this location get a more updated facelift though, the seating, walls, floors and bathrooms are functionally obsolescent. This McAlisters is in a great location and has a lot of business, it would be so nice to see it updated with more of a cafe and deli feel to it.
