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!

We received immediate attention for our drinks and sincere knowledge about cigars. I have nothing but great things to say about this understated gem South of Greenville.

The chef shared a gift initially - a cheesy gruyere puff which was a yummy start to our adventure. Then we shared starters including the "beef Wellington poptart", Parker's rolls, braised squash with pomegranate and goat cheese as well as a pear ricotta salad. All were phenomenal! Then we moved on to entrees: short ribs, home made pappardelle bolognese and salmon with lentils and pistachio cream. We devoured all with delight! Service was excellent noting that our water glasses were never empty. The restaurant itself is crisp, clean and inviting. We thoroughly enjoyed dinner and will be back to try brunch soon!

It's the kind of place that feels perfect for a night out--whether you're grabbing cocktails with friends or making a stop during an evening downtown.

Vault and Vator was our last stop of the night, and finding it was a little confusing which is part…read moreof the fun of a true speakeasy. It is found tucked behind the building with only a small, letter-sized paper sign marking the entrance. No flashy signage, no obvious storefront, which adds to the appeal if you're into that kind of hunt. Walking up to it late at night can be a little intimidating but it is well lit which I greatly appreciated! Once inside, the space is dimly lit and small, which makes for a genuinely intimate setting. I'd say it's good for a quieter, more conversational vibe rather than a loud night out. We went with the bartender's choice: pick a base liquor, then two words to describe what you're after. I went with vodka and "slightly sweet, refreshing," for $18. The bartender nailed the brief but it wasn't a drink I'd think about again or specifically order by name. Solid execution, forgettable flavor. Service was the real standout. Our bartender was excellent at walking us through the concept and translating vague requests into something that actually worked. That, plus the atmosphere, is enough to bring me back to see what else is on the menu since we made it there just in time for last call so I ended up only having one drink.

I am not local to the area and I do wish I could revisit this establishment. My bar fly days have been long gone, yet I guess "closing the bar" is part of my genetic structure, and these things don't go away. It's not something that I intend on doing, but the conversation flows with me and around me, and people just don't want me to go home! So, we ended up hanging out with one of the owners, and this gave me an insight to the whole idea behind this concept. If you are interested in local, unique products, and search for new flavors, this is the place to find excellent quality drinks. There's in-house gin and bitters, and that is all I will say. Well, one more thing I will say: don't be surprised if this bar becomes a national destination. The bar itself is classy and inviting, the music is great, the crowd is cool, but the hospitality is above tops. This place has it all and deserves a visit. Closing statement: very few places deserve 6 stars, this is one of them.

I went with the Coffee Date and Lord of Misrule--pretty good--but in hindsight, I wish I had tried more of their Fever-Tree and Chemist collaborations, which sounded especially interesting.

Quaint Tavern, located just off Main, with an excellent selection of wine, beer, and specialty cocktails. Small with limited seating, make sure you get there early or be prepared to wait a bit. We ordered the divinity and a specialty old-fashioned to drink and both were as delicious as any cocktail we've ever had. The peach Caprese salad was a real standout, so fresh and really delicious. The Instagram worthy jalapeño popper burger was perfectly prepared and really juicy and delicious. The cucumber salad was spicy as advertised and delicious, I could've eaten an entire bowl of those cucumbers. My son had the 4th street burger and I swear he ate it like he never had anything more delicious. The service was excellent. The food was excellent and we will absolutely be back. Highly recommend the Highlands Tavern!
