Good diner food served by the friendliest staff! The "back/larger" part of the triangle serves buffet style food for lunch. The ladies behind the buffet are friendly and give you generous servings! The "front/smaller" triangle opens at 5:30 and serves diner-style food. Hamburgers, Steaks, Philly Steak, Chicken Tenders, etc. The small salad bar is fresh from the farmer's market. You'll love the retro feel with 45's around the room, diner tables, and black/white tile floor. read more

Let me start off by saying that I used to generally love this place until today. Mind you, my family and I frequently dine or order out at this restaurant very often, for lunch and the evening grill items as well. Their rib sandwiches and burgers were our favorite. So today, I ordered 3 - 10 piece wings with fries, and 2 sweet teas- total of $43.00. I live 15 - 20 minutes away. And when I opened the food, the wings were soft with white, fleshy skin- no fried appearance and why was the skin white and appearance of uncooked chicken? I called the restaurant, told them my complaint and was told to send pics to the owner. The owner wanted to see the wings- I told the truth, I gave all 24 wings to the dog and the fries bc that chicken had touched them. I asked to either refund my money or redo my order correctly. The explanation was as follows- " Our wings are not battered and then fried, they are fried plain and then sauced.. with them being to go and steaming in a box for 20 mins they are going to be softer"... Real fried wings are going to be real fried wings- even if a customer gets them 20 minutes later PERIOD!!!! I am so upset because local support and loyalty mean nothing to some folks! I attempted to post pics, but of course the platform does not accept it. I am not being ugly but when you treat loyal customers like this, you don't need our support. read more

See all

Today I had the opportunity to speak with the owner of a local restaurant. I normally prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt, and my intention in this conversation was purely constructive. As a business owner myself, I believe honest feedback--when delivered respectfully can be valuable. I shared my perspective because I want to see local businesses succeed. There are several restaurants in the Edgefield area that consistently deliver quality food and service. When I dine at places like the Pool Room or Mount Vintage, I know what to expect every time. Consistency and quality matter, especially in the restaurant industry. Unfortunately, on multiple visits to this restaurant, the food quality did not meet that same standard. I expressed this not to be disrespectful, but to offer honest customer feedback. My concern was simply that continued inconsistency in food quality can negatively impact any business long-term. I truly believe this restaurant may have been excellent in the past, and I also believe it has the potential to improve. Many diners-style restaurants serve outstanding food, and there's no reason this one couldn't as well with the right focus on quality and execution. The conversation was taken differently than I intended, which is unfortunate. Constructive criticism is part of running any business--especially in an industry where customer experience is everything. My intention was never to offend, only to offer feedback that could help the business grow. I wish the owner nothing but success, and I hope the feedback is ultimately seen for what it was: an honest effort to help. read more

Service was awful! The boy took our order and never came back. A waitress came by and refilled our water finally.we sit for almost a hour never got our food . Never again!! Would not recommend this place!! read more

Good food. Reasonable prices. Friendly staff. It's a dependable local restaurant with a great down home ambiance,

We eat here at LEAST 3-4 times a month. Now if you call in a to go order and they say 30min just know it's gonna be 45min. Ok...?? But it's worth the wait. Hamburgers/cheeseburgers/ steak/ oh and if you want baked potato as a side better call before 7pm. read more

Very affordable and great service!! The food is great! There is many, many food options also.

Cute little restaurant with really good home cooked food. The service is usually great.

Really enjoyed this small town restaurant. The staff and meal were great. I will definitely be going back.

Rarely am I disappointed, except the fries aren't that great anymore. I think it's because they try to cool too many at once so they come out over and under cooked. Other than that Im a loyal customer. read more

Triangle Restaurant - the interior of a diner - American Near Me - Johnston, South Carolina

This is a classic American restaurant. If you were a foreign tourist and wanted a classic American restaurant this is it. Very reasonable prices, consistently good, nice salad bar, clean and funky triangle shaped building. Local favorite. A Friday night "it's payday" restaurant. I like the hamburger steak with salad, baked potato and toasted garlic roll. Quick service and a nice selection of homemade desserts that I'm always too full to try. read more

The Triangle is a hometown restaurant. During this Virus mess they are taking call in orders or orders at a window to go. No dine in dining. Their hamburgers are the best around. Worth the drive to Johnston just for a hamburger and fries. read more

Good standard daily buffet. Country fried chicken is usually a staple. Choice of meat and vegetables with prepared salads and desserts optional. Nightly, their ribeyes are my favorite, and they come with baked potato and salad. read more

Nice people slow service not everything's fresh. I'd know I work at McDonald's I didn't want to be a bitch so I let it slide UPDATE - oct 17 still sucks SLOWER THAN EVER. read more

First visit and last! Walked in the door went to the counter and the girl said 'what y'all need?' Not hello but 'what y'all need?' I thought I missed heard her but nope! Anyway, we realized we needed to seat ourselves. Every table dirty and the floors nasty! Only 2 customers seated and nobody cleaning. We walked out! If the conditions were nasty in the seating area I wonder how they are in the back! read more

My wife and I ate dinner here last night. Small town restaurant in a small town, right? That does not stop them from having great food. Martha and I ordered the fillet mignon steaks. They were GREAT. I had mine medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. Along with the steak, I had sweet potato fries. I hate sweet potatoes, but the fried ones have a new fan. The place was packed and a little noisy, just like I like it, relaxed and friendly. We both enjoyed our dinner and will be going back. This is the perfect place for a family dinner and I highly recommend it. read more

I have been going to this restaurant for as long as I can remember. They have such amazing food and they never disappoint! Parking is a little tight and you are seated close to other tables but it provides a more personal dining experience. The best thing on their menu to me are their steaks! I will be returning over and over. read more

It's exactly what you would expect for a small town diner. Food was good, the people are friendly and the tea is sweet!

Cheap, simple, good steak. While it's not the ritz, it perfectly satisfies the need for a steak, salad, & potato. They definitely do a great rare steak! read more

Now open on Friday for lunch too. Hot bar with your choice of meat and sides. Good fried chicken and cheesy potatoes. Price includes drink. Nice homey atmosphere with friendly folks serving read more

If you are looking for great food and equally great service you can find it at The Triangle Restaurant in Johnston, SC. So far we have had the pleasure of eating there twice and both times was wonderful. This place was recommended by a friend and I will pass it on. We have tried the steaks, shrimp, hamburger steak, and loaded baked potatoes. I have never had a steak to come off of a flat iron grill with the flavor and tenderness that these steaks possessed. Mr. John cooks a menu. Hats off to all the employees. We will continue to patronize this establishment. Looking forward to our next visit. " Rusty, Fred and the Flying Monkeys." read more

Great value. Great small town experience. Cafeteria style lunch- chose your meat and veggies - choice of cornbread or biscuit,salads(we had beets) and dessert. Just like eating in the church basement - very friendly customers and servers ! read more

Very good food! A little pricey but worth it. Friendly young staff of high school girls.
