Restaurants in Aiken

“We went to the Feed Sack last night for my mom's surprise 70th birthday party. Just wow. I cannot express how accommodating everyone was from the hostess to the piano player to our wonderful server, Joshua. I have worked in restaurants from Charleston to Aiken and I can tell you that his service is just exceptional. Funny, extremely knowledgeable and gracious service. We were shocked to find out late into the evening that he was not only taking care of our large party, but serving the bar as well AND other tables, and balancing it all impeccably! If you want a beautiful dining experience with a distinctly Aiken backdrop of horses, warm ambience, dark paneling, modern fixtures, and a fantastic bar and lounging area, this is your spot. Thank you so much to the staff, and especially Joshua for a stellar night that we will remember always, and, rest assured, we will be back!”

“This is our go to restaurant. Alissa was great and the food was great. 5 stars.”

Great food at a great price! Definitely enjoy the place.

Highly recommended”

“The best Indian cuisine we have eaten and we will travel just to eat. The owner and staff are very friendly. The menu is vast and is Halla. Certain dishes can be made gluten and or dairy free. Everything is made to order by an Indian Chef. Yes, if you go during the peakest hours there may be a wait on refills and such but the staff can only do a couple things at a time. This restaurant is always busy, and worth it! Have abit of patience and enjoy.”

“We absolutely love the Willcox. We are locals but still book a night just to enjoy this beautiful and relaxing spot. We were married here in 2020, and it was such a gorgeous event. The restaurant and bar is a nice retreat from our busy lives. Love it ❤️”

“The Love stack was incredible! I will be sure to visit anytime I am in town!”

“Quesabirria tacos were AMAZING and loaded for the price! Super fresh, super clean and organized, and nice folks! Green sauce is bomb!!!!”

“What a great place. Kaylee was a great host. Brad and Chef Sam were excellent. We had full harvest apple salad with buffalo fried chicken and the ‘Kate the Great’ brisket burnt ends sausage with onion rings. We enjoyed the Pinot Grigio and a flight of beer. If you are in the Aiken, SC area you need to stop by and enjoy the local flavor.”

“We went between lunch and dinner to try this restaurant out. I was so impressed with the chips and salsa and the tacos! We had carnitas and asada. Delicious!!!! Especially the asada. The seasoning was fantastic.”

“This was another exceptional dinner at Park Avenue. Service was top notch and food was delivered hot and was delicious.”

“If you leave hungry or thirsty, it's your own fault! On my most recent visit, I enjoyed the Japanese Old-fashioned and the Cloudy Strawberry Sake. Both complimented the food nicely (sweet/salty combination). The Spring Roll Salad was just so "pretty," and the Pork Fried Rice special was out of this world! Thank you to Chef Chad and company!!!”

“Catfish nuggets, Crab Boil, Shrimp and oysters, Philly Cheese sandwich, okra, fries, collards, potato salad, Corn Bread and EVERYTHING THEY SERVE. The new craft beer has an amazing taste!

“the pork chops dinner with potatoes and onions were awesome”

“Great family run business for years. The food is always hot, fresh, and good. I haven't gotten an item I don't like. Support local family businesses. This one is awesome. They only do call in and take out orders. No dining in.”

“We went on 9/2/23. Our server was Imaurie. She was very professional and our food came out in a timely manner and it was fresh and hot. She took our order for everything we wanted at one time. I was definitely impressed by that because I hate waiting and I am very impatient.The endless shrimp was amazing. I loved it. I give her 5 stars for being professional”

“Food is good. The younger lady behind the counter is super sweet. The other lady is a bit rough. We frequent this place often so wec know what to expect as far as all of the above. Only negative.. the restroom has had an out of order sign for 4 months and we see employees go in and out using a key. If we dine in( which we always do) aren't we supposed to have access to use the restroom???”

“Any review less than 4 stars isn’t fair or accurate! This is a GREAT mom/ pop Chinese restaurant! Excellent fresh food, clean dining room AND kitchen. Obviously hand made and delicious egg rolls! Do yourself a favor and disregard negative reviews. Try this place!”

“I took a friend to the buffet and it was one of the best buffets right? He and I have had in years. Everything looks good hot. I think it was clean we also showed app 30 minutes before closing time. They didn't let us in. Let us eat our fill.”

“Was in there a couple of weeks ago for late lunch. It was good. Grill person asked us how it was. Told him great. However, the server that was in duty raked him over the coals for talking to us. She did this in front of customers. Very rude and unprofessional. There was nothing wrong with the cook asking us about it. Cooked to perfection and well liked. Server was out of line”

“Great Staff - My mom is here from Wisconsin and loved the warm hospitality & waffles that she can’t get back home. Keep up the GREAT customer relations & great food”

“Best evea!! A group of us ol hens go every Wednesday morning! We are in line before the doors open so we can cackle! ? super great food!!!

Vegetarian options: Don't get me wrong!!! I love the meats!! But let me tell you about the phenomenal veggies and salad bar!!!! I could live off the greens alone!

Whew!! How wonderful!!!”

“I am so glad to have Chicken Salad Chick in Aiken. I have eaten here four times since they opened. Although they are working out kinks, I had wonderful service and the food is always delicious. I enjoy the trio with 3 scoops of your choice. The pimento cheese is good as well.”

“Anna and Leo were phenomenal. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a smile. The bond between the co-workers demonstrated such a warm cozy feeling.

“One hour and twenty mins before closing and the crew has the place in full shut down mode including mopping the floor we had to walk over to get inside. I understand the need to clean but I really didn't want to walk across the slippery wet floor. As usual the coffee was great.”

“During my visit to Aiken in June 2024 as a tourist from Germany, I stumbled upon this delightful café - and what a gem it turned out to be! The food and drinks were incredibly delicious, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made me feel right at home. The staff went above and beyond with their friendliness and attentive service. As a tourist, I’ve tried several spots around town, but this café quickly became my favorite and stands out as the best in Aiken. I highly recommend stopping by for a fantastic experience!”

Parking: People tear in and out of area going the wrong way so watch your step.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes but limited but permetless parkers and people parking in front feeling privileged to block off area.”

“I would order from this place more if they were on Uber eats. It’s a hassle getting into/out of the parking lot without getting into a car accident. The food is always great and the staff is always friendly.”

“I have heard horror stories about some Burger Kings, but I'll tell you the one on York st. in Aiken Store #133794 was a very pleasant experience from the minute I walked in the door on May 28th at 8:30am until I left (I ate in). The women working the counter was smiling and super pleasant. There was a young man working on the floor (I believe he was cleaning up at the soda fountains) also giving friendly greetings and smiling. The place was spotless. I wish I could of left a review on the BK website, but my receipt had a survey code on the top and on the bottom both cut in half and I couldn't read the numbers needed to do the survey.”

“Was in there a couple of weeks ago for late lunch. It was good. Grill person asked us how it was. Told him great. However, the server that was in duty raked him over the coals for talking to us. She did this in front of customers. Very rude and unprofessional. There was nothing wrong with the cook asking us about it. Cooked to perfection and well liked. Server was out of line”

“The hostess told us 4o minute wait for a party of seven. After an hour plus my phone buzzed telling me our table was ready. When I went to the hostess,Priscilla she told me I had said a party of five. I said I know how to count the number in our party. Finally a server came over and found seating for our party. After discussion with manager our entire meals for a party of 7 was on Outback’s. The manager and assistant mgr very nice and accommodating, This was true customer service and satisfaction. I will continue to visit Outback’s for this reason The food was delicious and Caden our waitress was very nice and helpful.”

“Cant Say enough about this Jersey Mike's!!! I came back to N.Y. in april 2022 and can't wait to get back ? first place I'm gonna eat in the fall when I return”

“Best Chinese restaurant in Aiken good service a nice people.”

“The best pizza in the csra. Their pizza is so good that I drove over an hour for a vesuvius. My craving started late Friday night. I didn't have time Saturday so I planned my Sunday around lunch at pizza di Napoli. Sunday morning was torture.. my toothpaste tasted like tender and juicy pepperoni, my coffee had the sharp but warm scent of a wood fire and my biscuit from McDonald's tasted like.... well we know what they taste like. The drive over to aiken took forever. We finally arrive I felt like a kid on Christmas morning ...that got coal in his stocking. Closed from the 18th -26th. I had checked the website and called and listened to the recording and and and.... I'll still give you five stars but you may not be getting a Christmas card this years.”

“Although the steaks are excellent, my absolute favorite is the double cut pork chop. I consistently brag ab.out it whenever we take out of town guests there. Unlike some other restaurants I’ve bragged about and been embarrassed because the meal didn’t live up to the expectations I created, the pork chop at the Prime is always fully cooked (no pink at the bone) yet it remain succulent throughout. While some may consider the cost for a pork chop to be a bit pricey, I believe it is well worth it for what you get. Quality and quantity dictate price. In all my years of fine dining, I have never had a better (or even close) pork chop than that served at the Prime.. the portion is always sufficient for me to take the remainder home for a second meal. Service and ambiance are also noteworthy. I highly recommend.”

“My husband and I just lunched at diablos on whiskey road in Aiken. The service was fast and friendly and they did not skimp on the portions. The manager checked on us to see how our meal was and they kept the place swept and cleaned. We would recommend them to anyone.”

“Just ate here for my first time! From the time I walked in...i had a sense of down home southern welcome...Gentleman in charge was very nice and food was on point...loved the seasoning on corn on the Cobb...the fried shrimp was a home run hit! Prices were great! If only corporate run resturaunts would take notes from family owned places.I will return with Family and friends!”

“Absolutely loved it! We will be back.”

“I had breakfast at the Aiken location for the first time (10-11-22). The banana pancakes were good. The wait was short, and our server Aja was funny and nice. She was great!”

“Low Country Combo was great! Service was prompt and friendly. Definitely one of my new go to places.”

“The food and service is amazing! Only one complaint there is no baby changing station in either one of the restrooms. My wife had to change our son‘s diaper on the floor in the bathroom. Please address the situation. Thank you for your outstanding service and awesome food!”

“The food was very good, service was good, but the background music was too loud It was hard to have a conversation when the music is distracting.”

“Love this place! Very fresh food - great chile rellenos (always my measure), homemade corn tortillas, and a variety of other delish offerings. Best in Aiken and very reasonable!”

“Tip for accessing Whiskey Rd.: Turn RIGHT then turn LEFT onto Two-Notch Rd. after the Oil Change Business. Drive "less than 1/2mile?" and turn LEFT on Price Avenue. At the Red Light is Whiskey Road.

Dietary restrictions: Ordered SALT FREE Fries. They are always Fresh, b/c the usual is to salt them. Must be made Per Order.”

“I'm from Texas! When I arrived there was a line in the drive-thru. I waited. When I got to the order panel, a lady was so nice taking my order. I said to myself wow, I'm shocked to get greeted like that. Customer service in many places are horrible. But this Wendy's knocked it all out the ballpark.

When I got to the window for payment the cashier was so nice. I said the food has to be good! OMG was I right from the strong diet coke, down to the hot fries 🍟 to the Wendy's single burger was so fresh and neatly made. Everything tasted so good.

Thank you for giving it your all. Tell the cook great job 11-4-2024 approximately 3:30 p.m.

I will be back. Wish I had taken photos 📸 but I dug right in lol...”
