    coffee served immediately!

    Very busy this morning, constant stream of happy customers of all ages. Very friendly folks working the counter and booths. We ordered eggs and they were cooked perfectly! The toast was perfect, the hashbrownds were very crispy on the outside which is my favorite, and coincidentally, howI ale for them ; ) but they were underdone on the inside so they did not make it into my fork. The thick sliced crisp baboons, well... need I say more, ok I will... perfection, smoky, bacony (not a word), slightly greasy was an exceptional topper to every single bite of my Waffle House waffle, drenched in syrup...YUM! Ooh, and the coffee was okay... not the best but certainly drinkable and better than no coffee at all. Our server was just the right amount of friendly and chatty.

    My 1st Waffle House(Charlotte NC) experience occurred at age 39, and I was hungover AF...Waffle House seemed magical. My 2nd Waffle House(Ridgeland SC) experience occurred at age 40, and I was sober AF...Waffle House lost some magic. (Waffle house doesn't exist in California) Unlike the first super friendly experience I had, the staff here seemed depressed and melancholy. Boyfriend dumped you? Did a 16yo daughter get pregnant? Husband gambled the rent money away? Who knows...though throughout my entire dining experience, I did notice the grumpy manager giving a continuous watchful death glare to every hardworking employee. Between dark stares, she would bark orders at her employees as if they were her children. Oh well...I don't think there are many other job opportunities in little Ridgeland SC. Otherwise, my breakfast was simple but rock solid. Tasteless but satisfying coffee? Check! Greasy breakfast sandwich? Check! Hot crispy hash browns with American cheese? Check! Thin hot Waffle House style pecan waffle? Check! This all set me back $14, not too shabby...though everything tastes better if you're drunk, or hungover.

    I'm a huge fan of the Waffle House chain of restaurants, but this location gives all other locations a bad rep. This location is located off of an I-95 exit, just as you're about to enter Georgia, so it's a perfect spot for hungry road warriors, however, the location is the best part about it. Customer service was low, bad, horrible. We entered the building, normally we would be greeted, we were not. They weren't even that busy. There were about 3 empty booths when we entered, but they were dirty, waiting for someone to come and clear them so that customers could be seated. The thing that really bothered me was that there were AT least 10 people behind the counter, half of them looked lost, as if they were waiting for further instructions. It seems that the youngest person on duty at the time was the only person capable of clearing the tables and taking food orders. This young lady ended up being our server and she was awesome. This particular experience won't stop me from enjoying Waffle House, but the next time that I'm traveling on I-95, I'll make sure to bypass Ridgeland.

    I'm torn between a two or three star review. But I'll give you what they nailed on first. My food time was quick. Despite just having one main cook, they got the food out. Waffle House is... Affordable but I wouldn't say cheap. Cleanliness is A okay and my food was delicious. I don't know if it was because I was really hungry or what. Unfortunately a few not so great stuff happened. First of all, the waitress never asked me how I liked my steak cooked. Fortunately for them, I like my steak borderline medium well and medium rare. Don't get me wrong it was delicious! But there are parts specifically more close to the bone where it was so rare it was bright red. I told her instead of hash browns I wanted a waffle. But I still got hash browns. Honestly I was just so tired and hungry I didn't even want to complain and argue. I just ate it all and informed the waitress. Staff were just doing their job. Minimal conversation. This is just one of those places you go for the quick food even though you know the service is not great but you go ANYWAY. In the name of food. I recommend the Tbone steak

    Coming from the northeast where you can't even smoke on an outdoor patio anymore, the indoor smoking was kind of a drag (but only cause I quit smoking and thought it was the best thing ever). Oh and the food? Well, you know. The strawberry waffles were good but the eggs were undercooked. A cockroach greeted us as we entered the building but we were too hungry to care.

I ordered the Lowcountry Boil, which comes with shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage. The sausage and potatoes were good, and the seasoning was decent, but I was underwhelmed overall, especially considering the price. The shrimp didn't seem particularly fresh and had some white spots and discoloration that gave me the impression they may have been frozen for quite a while. As a result, the dish didn't quite live up to the hype for me. My wife ordered the Wassaw Redfish, which was recommended by our server, and that ended up being the standout dish of the meal. The redfish was cooked well, the garlic beurre blanc sauce was rich without being overwhelming, and the grits were creamy and flavorful. The shrimp and green beans complemented the dish nicely. Overall, the experience was mixed. The atmosphere was pleasant, and my wife's entrée was very good, but the Lowcountry Boil fell short of expectations. I'd consider coming back to try some of their other menu items, but based on this visit, I wouldn't order the boil again.

Next, the staff. They were exceptionally nice. Friendly, polite, courteous and helpful. Absolutely 5 stars. The food. We ordered the fried pickle appetizer, a shrimp dinner and the special, a 5oz fried grouper sandwich. The pickles came out fresh, hot, nicely cooked in a perfect coating. Came with ranch dressing. Would totally order them again. 5 stars as they were perfect. The shrimp dinner was also very good. Nice portion of again... perfectly coated, perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. The side of coleslaw was fine. No rating as it was neutral. The fries, the side we chose, were ok. The usual frozen crinkle cut fries. They were hot and cooked well. But frozen makes them a 3 star. I personally was not a fan of the hush puppies as I'm typically not anyway. My partner said they were delicious. Going by her enjoyment, 3.5 stars. The grouper sandwich special. Presentation was good. Good bun, fresh leaf lettuce and fresh cut tomato. The fish was again, nicely coated. Unfortunately, it came out dry. A little tough to chew. My partner tried it and said the same thing. Fortunately, the great server offered to have a new one made for me. I really didn't want it so she replaced it with their fried shrimp! No headache. No nasty looks or comments. Just a server that wanted to make sure we had a good dining experience. She did. The bill arrived and the food prices were good. Taxes are a bit high but no fault of the place. We were disappointed to see a service charge of 3% for CC fee. Typical nowadays but still never happy to see it. Overall this is a place that I would absolutely recommend and if ever passing through here again, we will stop and eat here. 4.75 stars.

    Lowcountry Backyard was one of those places that feels like it's been there forever in the best…read morepossible way. Quirky, unpolished, a little tucked away, and absolutely full of character. It doesn't feel corporate or manufactured at all. More like you've stumbled into somebody's lovingly chaotic backyard dinner party where the food just happens to be genuinely top-tier. The mismatched charm, handwritten feel, and warm atmosphere are part of what makes it so special. There's this brilliant contrast between the laid-back hole-in-the-wall vibe and the seriously refined cooking coming out of the kitchen. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were incredibly tender, fried perfectly, and drizzled with a lovely house-made ranch. The sweet house pickles alongside were such a good touch. We also each had a cup of she crab soup which was beautifully seasoned and packed with tonnes of crab morsels. For mains, we shared the shrimp and grits and completely understood why the recipe has won awards, including being recognised as the 3rd best in the world. The recipe is rooted in traditional Lowcountry cooking but elevated with layers of flavour that somehow still feel comforting and homemade. The grits were unbelievably creamy, and the shrimp and sausage were perfectly cooked with fantastic flavour throughout. We also split the seafood purloo with blackened grouper, and it was equally impressive. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted incredibly fresh without trying too hard to be fancy. What really made the experience though was the staff. Everyone went above and beyond. They took time to chat with us about the area, paced the courses perfectly so nothing felt rushed, and by the end we were leaving with handshakes feeling more like guests than customers. Places like this are getting harder to find. We'll absolutely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Lowcountry food served by genuinely wonderful people.

Except for the fried green tomatoes- those were very good, dipped in blue cheese dressing (ranch was bad, tasted like plain mayonnaise with a parsley sprinkle) The pimento cheese appetizer was so disappointing! Tasted like cream cheese mixed with packaged shredded cheddar and 3 small pieces of raw red pepper; served with stale corn chips and uninspired pita. Was so looking forward to good homemade pimento cheese in the south! The grouper sandwich was sad, my friend only ate the fish and left the bun and tomatoes on the plate. The mac and cheese was even sadder, described as baked mac and cheese it was more like old leftovers, cold, separated noodles that were really dry. The shrimp blt salad- the aforementioned fried green tomatoes were the best part. The bacon was cold and floppy and kind of unchewable. It was served on wilted arugula. I'm so confused by all the rave reviews! Maybe this was a one off.
