"I have tolerated several issues with this Chick-fil-A, but today was the final straw. I ordered a 12-piece nugget meal at 11:25 AM, and when I got home, I found that 1) they had given me chicken strips instead of nuggets, and 2) the box was marked as containing 12 grilled nuggets. I had to hop back in my truck to return to the restaurant. My wife went inside to resolve the mix-up and get my correct order. I’m giving this a 2-star rating because this is the fourth time I’ve encountered this problem. It was only 11:30 AM, and the restaurant wasn't busy, so there should be no excuse for these mistakes. When my wife spoke to the young lady inside to clarify the order, she struggled to read the ticket correctly and ended up bringing back 12 grilled nuggets instead, despite my wife showing her what I actually ordered. At least the staff member was polite about it."

"I'm so excited that this burger joint has opened up in Columbia, especially on our side of town! Honestly, I can't find anything to criticize. The thin, crispy steak burger is packed with amazing flavor and offers something truly special. I went for the Double California style burger combo, while my husband chose the double original, and he enjoyed it just as much. Although the restaurant was busy, everything was so well-organized that the line moved quickly. Our food came out without delay as well. The atmosphere was lively, and there were plenty of friendly staff members around to clear our empty trays as soon as we finished. This place will definitely be our go-to for a delicious burger in the future. I'm also looking forward to trying their frozen custard, and I really appreciate the outdoor seating!"

"After ordering a breakfast sandwich and a soda, I’ve had to wait nearly 15 minutes to receive my order. On one occasion, I was asked to pull forward, and it took over 20 minutes for them to bring my food out. I even had to call to ask what happened, only to find out they had simply forgotten about it. When I questioned the staff about the wait, the guy asked, "You haven't been waiting long, have you?" which was quite baffling. Today was no different; it took 7 minutes just for someone to acknowledge me in the drive-thru (I was the first car at 6:03 AM), and I’m still waiting over 10 minutes for my bagel sandwich and drink. The slow service and unhelpful staff have made this my last visit here. "

"I've visited this restaurant twice—once for takeout and once for dining in—and both experiences were outstanding in terms of food and service. They boast a diverse menu featuring various Asian cuisines, including Thai, Japanese, and Chinese, with a blend of popular Western favorites and authentic dishes. We've sampled the Singapore noodles, vegetable fried rice, crab wontons, and sushi, and everything was delicious and generously portioned for the price. Among the four dishes, we found the fried rice to be our least favorite due to its slightly salty flavor, but it was still very enjoyable. The restaurant has a pleasant bar area with plenty of seating, and the cocktails were both strong and reasonably priced. We would certainly return for dinner and drinks. While takeout is a bit on the pricey side, it’s a great choice if you’re looking for something better than average Chinese takeout."

"I ordered the shrimp hibachi and the children's chicken with miso soup. Unfortunately, the miso soup was quite watery and lacked flavor. The children's meal met my expectations, but it was missing the vegetables that were included in the adult hibachi. The shrimp hibachi was okay, but it would have been improved with the addition of the vegetables from the adult dish. I would also suggest skipping the pineapple."
