We had reservations, which I recommend. Place was busy, but we were seated promptly. We all shared a fried shrimp appetizer which was excellent. My wife had the vegetarian plate and she really liked it. I had one of the specials - BBQ on hoe cakes which was unbelievably good. Excellent service. One of Columbia's better restaurants. We will go... More

Ate here with co-workers on a business trip to Columbia, South Carolina. We opted to sit outside on a beautiful evening. Outside dining leaves a little to be desired as it is adjacent to the parking lots, so constant traffic and cars, there are not many outside tables. We started with Fried Green Tomatoes.

We had recently received a gift certificate for this restaurant and didn't know what to expect. We did review the dinner menu online before arriving and thought we could identify something that we liked without any trouble.

From across the way, the sound of college students rooting each other to "chug chug chug" only wafted our way a couple of times during... More

My girl friends and I decided to try Mr. Friendly's for our monthly outing. We did have to wait about 20 minutes to be seated but it was well worth the wait. We ordered fried oysters and calamari as appetizers. Both orders were excellent. Cooked to order and very fresh. For entrees we had peach BBQ glazed salmon, buttermilk fried... More

We ate here when passing through town. We did have a bit of trouble finding it at night. But, it was very worth it. It is not a huge restaurant, and we had to wait 10-15 minutes. Not bad. It was a bit pricier than we thought it would be. The food was great! We ordered the following: Lamb shanks,... More

I went with several friends for lunch and we all had great meals. The Southern cooking is always excellent and you can't miss with any selection.

Always top notch service food drinks and staff . Bacon wrapped filet is the go to meal. When spring arrives the patio is the place to be
