Fun place for a cool cocktail! Located in the downstairs of the Robinson Room & The Grand, The Urban Tiki is a great place to grab a cocktail before of after dinner. Made from fresh juices and clevery packaged, most cocktails range from $8 to $15. Bartenders are open to substitutions and presentation is everything. Most drinks can be served as a mocktail as well! We had the Green Lady mocktail and it was superb! There is also a full bar of regular spirits. The space is small but can hold 40 to 50 people easily. What would make this a 5 star is to have it up on a rooftop instead of a basement. Great service from the fun bartenders too!

First off I want to start by saying this is a good ole "down home" kind of bar / restaurant. That…read morebeing said if you know, you know. I stay next door pretty often, and I've never came in. Although I have been to waffle House, which I'm sure I reviewed prior. I came in around supper time, 6:00 p.m. or so, and it was probably at 75% capacity. I sat at the bar, after being welcomed by a local fully equipped with his own Skynyrd beer koozie!! Hahaha! They have karaoke, and they karaoke DJ spinning all the good country hits, literally emulating exactly what I play at home. Anyhow, the local that pulled my chair out essentially, told me that the "bartender sucked" But in good ole down home local fashion, she clapped right back, and obviously he was joking cuz she is phenomenal. Despite having a completely full bar, and waiting tables, she acknowledged me almost immediately. Even sat down in the bar stool next to me to take my order and chit chat and go over the menu with me. I think her name was Alicia, but regardless she was outstanding! I ordered hot wings and lemon pepper wings. They came out really fast, really hot, and really good. I kind of wish I had room to order another entree, but it filled me up. As I waited for my food, I was suddenly engulfed by an entire group of locals. Now this place, is the mature crowd, and they were so nice they sort of took me under their wing! This is the epitome of down south hospitality. I've been holding out on coming to this place for a few years now, and looking back, I wish I would have came a lot sooner. I hate using the term "vibe", But this is totally my vibe. Great food, great service, great locals, laid back atmosphere with music playing and karaoke? You just can't beat it. I have responsibilities, so I had to leave really early, but rest assured, I will definitely be back. I mean who else is going to sing Jason Aldean on the karaoke machine? Thank you skynyrd's, thank you Alicia (I hope I remembered your name right), such a great experience and I'm sorry I had to cut it short!

I I love sushi but I've never had a fresh poke bowl before so I will be trying one next time for sure. I got the Tonkatsu Ramen tonight with extra marinated eggs and it was so good! The Tonkatsu is a pork based creamy soup. (I added chili oil crisps when I got home). The location is so clean and the food is so fresh! I'm obsessed with ramen bowls so this does not disappointed. The girls that work on this location are always nice as well. Will be frequenting when I get that ramen crave for sure!

There are not a lot of places to get a meal in Columbia SC on Sunday night. I was stuck looking…read morearound after other plans failed, and found myself here. From the outside, it doesn't look like a whole lot, but the inside was quite meticulously kept and had plenty of space to eat in, though most of their fairly vigorous business was takeout. As Poke-type places go, this one offered a ton of options. Virtually any diet could be accommodated, vegan and gluten-free easily so but also whatever you'd want in terms of limiting carbs. They had a splendid selection of ingredients with multiple fruits, several ways to get your greens, but also some delicious crunchy things and spicy sauces. And it was a good sized bowl. It was one of the better such bowls I've had, and for the ingredient quality, the price was not bad. Having been impressed into ordering a tea, I did not like that as much. My lychee tea was not excessively sweet, but the fruitiness didn't quite make up for it. The popping boba didn't quite pop the way I'd hoped either. Maybe another drink would have been better but I preferred the food over the tea. Still given the range of options available, I really could not have expected much better of a meal than this.

Visited Hawaiian Style BBQ under the new ownership, and even though a few items I had enjoyed in…read morethe past were no longer available, it didn't take away from the overall experience at all. The food still felt authentic and full of true Hawaiian flavor. Coming from a family with roots in the Big Island and Maui, I can appreciate when a place captures that genuine island-style taste and atmosphere. One thing that really stood out was how they start you off with fresh in-house made pork rinds, similar to how Mexican restaurants serve chips and salsa when you sit down. It was a unique and welcoming touch. We ordered the spicy poke, Spam musubis, and a mixed BBQ plate with two scoops of mac salad. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. The mac salad especially had that classic island-style taste that's hard to find done right. The staff was friendly, the decor looked great, and the restaurant had a warm, inviting feel. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for authentic Hawaiian comfort food.

The food absolutely delivered. The ribeye was the standout. Juicy. Tender. Packed with smoky,…read moregrilled flavor in every bite. It had that perfect char on the outside while staying incredibly flavorful and moist inside. Definitely the star of the meal. The chicken was just as impressive. Well-seasoned. Perfectly cooked. Every bite was tender with a hint of sweetness and that signature Hawaiian-style barbecue flavor that keeps you coming back for more. Don't overlook the rice. Soft. Moist. Buttery. It soaked up every bit of flavor from the meats and tied the whole plate together. Simple, but done exactly right. The restaurant was busy, which speaks to how popular it is. The staff looked a little overwhelmed during the rush, and you could tell an extra set of hands would've helped. Even so, everyone remained friendly, worked hard, and never let the quality of the food slip. If you're willing to be a little patient during peak hours, you'll be rewarded with a meal that's absolutely worth the wait. It's giving... the kitchen clocked in while the dining room was playing catch-up.

Best decision -- loved all the seating areas, inside, glass porch and out door seating -- all were really cute. We sat inside the glass porch and it was gorgeous. The staff was very friendly. Our waitress was incredible. I had asked for my burger medium but it came out pretty rare. She was so accommodating and sent it back to make it right. To start off we ordered a Caesar salad to share -- y'all... this was the best Caesar salad I've EVER HAD!!! 100/10 would recommend!! The burgers and fries were amazing too! Would definitely recommend this place to friends and family. Hope to come back and visit.

The live music and jeopardy nights is honestly really fun, but the food feels sidelined. The food can taste pretty decent like the Grilled Chicken on the lunch menu but it can also be terrible like the special tacos they brought in during winter. Though my biggest complaint is that the dishes are overpriced. I usually rotate Halls and The Palmetto Club whenever I'm not exploring but the value here is somehow worse. I have nothing bad to say about the service. The workers are great and I compliment them for doing such a good job outside with how hot and cold it gets.

They always have different shows or exhibits that come through. I was overjoyed at the Disney Costumes exhibit that came at the end of last year!

Great dollar value if you're interested in all locations mentioned. The museum was easy to find and offered plenty of parking in a lot shared with the EdVenture Children's Museum. They had many exhibits that our 7 & 12 year old enjoyed but they thoroughly enjoyed the second floor galleries with the dinosaur exhibit and the habitat exhibits. Staff was very friendly and helpful when fielding our questions. They also enjoyed seeing the the history of SC through the years represented through artifacts and the changes from the colony, war, and industrialization of the city with mills and the railroad. They also have a planetarium and a 4D shows offered throughout the day. Highly recommend adding this to your itinerary if you are in the Columbia area! The selection of exhibits were fun to see and educational.
