    The atmosphere, food, and the service was amazing. Kaleb was a fantastic server! And we would definitely comeback for his service alone!

    This was our second time going and we really enjoyed it once again! We had the set Valentine’s Day menu rather than the full menu and everything was delicious including the cocktails and beer. Our server was lovely and fast, short wait times, and things were clean. The restaurant could use a few design updates to create a more high end ambience but even that’s being nitpicky. We will absolutely be back for our next special occasion.

    This was our first time and we had a wonderful Valentine’s dinner. We did the private dining experience with the three course meal.

    The broccolini had a taste as if had been in the freezer too long. The lamb was not seasoned enough. The mashed potatoes on my daughter’s plate was too salty. The environment was nice but the food wasn’t good enough for me to come back. Strangely, I had been to Saluda’s before and it was great, may have just been the wrong night.

    Saluda’s is always great. Steak is one of the best in Columbia. Cocktails are always on point. Great for date night.

    The evening was fantastic with the exception of us being to that we had to wait to for the hostess to check with the manager. Not sure on this as we had a reservation. Food was great, the server, Caleb, was very attentive. The atmosphere was great.

    The food and service were fantastic! My only “grievance” with the experience was price of the food for the portions I was receiving. This isn’t to say the food was bad by any means, but $95 per person for a tiny starter, a small Caesar salad, and the main course seemed like a money grab for their Valentine’s Day menu.
