    Stopped here for a quick lunch. Lady at the counter was really nice and helpful. Hubby got 2 meat combo with 2 sides. I got the pulled pork quesadilla with extra pico and a side of sriracha aioli. I really enjoyed my quesadilla, it had good flavor, good filling and was great with the fresh pico de gallo. The brisket was just OK, a bit salty and meat kind of broke apart too much. But he enjoyed the sides and pulled pork. We really liked the vinegar and mustard bbq sauce. Overall it was a pretty good place in Anderson.

    Off the road a bit gem. We waited in line to find out they completely ran out of brisket was a bummer. The staff were absolutely delightful and sincere with their apology for running out so early. We decided to get a couple bbq sandwiches w fries. The food came out quick and was tasty. I prefer my bbq sandwiches with slaw and the places I usually go come that way by default. Next time here I will have to ask. The bbq vinegar they have is on the sweet side. My personal preference is for a spicier type vinegar. The restaurant was clean and well lit with staff checking on us regularly. Overall a good experience. I'd come back again.

    Where do I start! It is 5/5 stars even though it was more like 10/5 it was amazing! The brisket was nice and tender with amazing flavor! Ribs were done to perfection, nice little tug but fall off the bone! Chicken was delicious! Sides executed perfectly, fried okra, potato salad, fries and Cole slaw all done wonderful! Sausage biscuits and gravy were great, there is an extra something that puts it over the top to perfection! The brisket Rueben was awesome. Nachos too!!! Portions were awesome and large. The price point was on par with the food and portions! If you are looking for an awesome BBQ joint this place is for you!!! Service was excellent we throughly enjoyed talking to all the employees!!! It was an awesome outdoor dining experience they also have indoor.

    Really good sandwich's. We like to eat there after church sometimes. Service is good, very barbecue style type of restaurant. Definitely a place to go.

    Pulled Pork Sandwich with 1 Side (coleslaw)

    Usually I'm really good about taking pictures of my food before I eat, but I was hungry and it was so good and I forgot to take the picture until I was halfway done so I apologize for the unappetizing snapshot. Anyway, this place had a delicious pulled pork sandwich, just the right amount of smoke and they had 2 hot BBQ sauces (red and vinegar) that were amazing. I had a half of a sandwich with each and can't pick a favorite. I picked coleslaw as a side and slapped on my sandwich bc that's how I like it. I tasted the coleslaw on its own and it was better than most places I've tried. The place was so clean and even the bathroom was spotless. The food came out quickly and exceeded my expectations for a quick walk in BBQ joint. I will be definitely be back.

We did one last Tuesday. A very large pan full of excellent meaty Lasagna, salad for 5, and a sack of dinner rolls. The salad was great, but a bit small for 5, however the pan full of lasagna would have easily been enough for 8... so all things considered, this did not disappoint the family. Their web site says to order as follows: Place your orders via Facebook messenger, square, or text us at 864-270-1372 https://checkout.square.site/buy/AEDWQKG3O33LVSDRAV7VK4WA We placed an order a day ahead and they asked what time we would like to pick it up the next day. We picked something like 2:00 and had a delicious meal for our family with no hassle or mess.

I am not sure if Neil is just unbelievably overwhelmed but we are planning our wedding for November 9th and have been trying to plan with Neil for at least a month and were told yes on our needs.

I have reached out several times and received one text back saying he had reached out to my fiance and he left me his cell which he never answers or responds to texts. My fiance has wanted to hire this company since just before covid when we were supposed to get married but put it off for obvious reasons. She was so excited to finally be able to book thoroughfare only to be disappointed in the end. Maybe we are just a one off I don't know but this is what we experienced with Neil and are very disgusted with the way this went. The 2 stars is because the food is undeniably terrific sadly we will not be experiencing the food at our wedding thanks to the lack of communication.

First and most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious. We had a smaller guest count than we'd planned for because of COVID stuff, so even though we all ate until we could barely move, there were leftovers, and let me tell you, it was not hard to give them away when we were packing up. Secondly, the food wasn't fussy. I'm sure they could do that if you wanted them to, but we wanted simple comfort food and it was perfect. Chicken & waffles, cajun shrimp in phyllo cups, ham biscuits, a beautiful vegetable tray, deviled eggs, things like that. Just delicious. Writing this review is making me hungry! The third highlight was the reasonable cost. Even at a time when a lot of caterer's were raising their prices at the last minute, Hill's Catering was very reasonably priced, and they were very good about saying, "here's the less expensive option, or if you can spend a little more we could do this," etc. The last wonderful thing is Mrs. Nita Hill herself. From the first email, I felt like I had a planning partner I could trust. I even hugged her when I finally met her in person, and people, I am not a hugger. She is super conscientious, a great communicator, and a heck of a cook. All the other details were just as they should be: they showed up in plenty of time, brought plenty of help, got to work, brought extras everything we might need, checked in often, and left the place spotless. There was seriously not one thing I would change. If you want real food, good food, or real good food for your event, talk to Hill's Catering.

From the very first meeting with Andrew and Randall my wife and I knew exactly where our wedding reception was going to be, Palmetto Ridge! They were so easy to work with through every step of the process and so patient with all of our requests (and trust me they weren't all easy requests). They will exceed every expectation you have! The Venue: Absolutely beautiful! Two main rooms, we used one for the food and 'beverages' and the other as the dining room for 150+ people with a dance floor and stage for the band or DJ. More than enough parking even for our large event. The landscaping is well taken care of and makes for some beautiful picture opportunities. I almost forgot... It was scorching hot the day of our wedding but that wasn't a problem at Palmetto Ridge we walked in and it was honestly refreshingly cool and that made us and every one of our guests very happy! The Food: DELICIOUS!!! Tell them you want the Shrimp & Grits trust me you will not be disappointed!!! The Staff: Professional, courteous, and invisible and I mean that as a HUGE compliment. I don't mean invisible as in they aren't doing the job, quite the opposite actually! They do the job so well you don't even know they are there! I worry about everything and Andrew and Randall noticed that and basically told me "stop worrying, we got this" and they absolutely did! Without the two of them watching over everything I doubt my new bride and I would have had half the fun we had! Thanks Andrew and Randall we really appreciate every thing you did to make that day so special! If you are looking for a venue for your wedding or any other event you'd be crazy not to call Palmetto Ridge!
