    The food was excellent. Atmosphere was great. The bartender made me a really good dirty martini. Our server Karson was very attentive and took great care of us. Definitely will be back.

    We had an excellent waitress and the food was amazing. I have been her several times but was never so impressed. We were a group of 5 and never felt rushed.

    The food was delicious. I had the lamb osso buco and my husband had the filet. The service is impeccable - they go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. We had a wonderful time.

    Better than ever! Today’s Saluda’s is emphasizing locally sourced, high quality ingredients with an amazing bar, great service and made-in-house desserts. It was perfect for our annual, romantic Christmas dinner as a couple. I wish the noise level was a little lower, but to be fair we were seated in the middle of the room. Our server was excellent and obviously well trained. We spent $109 for top choices from their menu and felt like we got our money’s worth.

    Saluda's has the best Shrimp and Grits hands down... and on a consistent basis. It's the first dish I ever had here about 5-7 years ago and remains the best I've had anywhere. The rest of the food was also excellent! Only wish I'd saved space for dessert. :)

    Celebrated my husband’s 76th with great friends! Appetizers, for the table sides and entrees were delicious. We were delighted. Ambiance is best by far in Columbia!

    No restaurant is perfect. However, I have only ever had 5 star service and food at Saluda's. Tonight, our server Nancy did an amazing job. This is a must experience in Columbia, in my opinion. The value for your money is frankly hard to believe. Don't hesitate.
