  The food was great!  The problem was that we had a party of 10, arrived right at 11 when they opened, and it took 40 minutes to get our food.  This made things really tense as we had to be back at work by noon....  The server tried really hard to expedite things.  We should have told her from the beginning we only had 45 minutes, but since we were the only people there we weren't worried...

  Great to have another non-chain on the Southside. The fries are probably the best around - crispy.
  
  Had the tenderloin, which was great, and they have Flat 12 and Sun King on tap. Good coleslaw, too.
  
  This place definitely has some promise.

  We ate here last Friday evening and the food was wonderful !  Had the breaded tenderloin with onion rings, then a hot fudge brownie sundae, sister-in-law had lemon meringue pie, both were very tasty.  Not the best but very good.  The only complaint, alot of conversation was heard from the kitchen, didn't need to know all the issues from the "back of the house".  Will return and have recommended it to several people as well.  I think they will do well, we need something like this in town.

  This is a new restaurant that has opened near our office in Greenwood. It was obvious from the beginning it wasn't a chain restaurant because there were no trained staff that had transferred from another location. They were all a little over whelmed at first but the food was always decent and the atmosphere is perfect for a business lunch. They have alot of basic bar and grill food and it's all pretty good. The past couple weeks they have really started to get it together. The staff is prompt and knowledgeable. Management came to the table to be sure all our needs were tended too. Best of all they told us they have a new kitchen manager and he let us sample a couple of the new appetizers. I highly recommend the "dragon fingers"! They are basically just tender breaded chicken fingers with an amazing glaze/sauce that has just the right amount of kick. Very flavorful! The shrimp appetizer was outstanding as well. I've been very impressed with my past 2 lunch orders also. The pesto chicken sandwich and the fish sandwich both with the best fries in town were solid efforts. The salad is a bargain at $5.00 and will fill you up for sure. No question the Grille is headed in the right direction. I'm looking forward to the new menu items.

  2 & 1/2 stars. Food ok, beer questionable, atmosphere ok, service ok but weird.
  Two of us for lunch @ 12:45 on a week day. Not many other diners at this time. Music was blaring. We asked the waitress about their beer. Her reply, "We have a lot." We eyed the Flat 12 tap and asked which one it was and were told, "I don't know, its Flat 12." So, I went up to the bar to check out the taps myself. About 10  beers on tap. Approx 3 local beers, 2 more decent craft beers and the rest were pee pee. We ordered some locals, Sun King & Flat 12. The beers had an antiseptic smell & taste to them which I know was not from the beers themselves but had to be from the glasses or tap lines(?)
  For lunch I ordered chili & a side of fries and asked for a bottle of hot sauce (for the chili). Blank stare from the waitress. Me, "Hot sauce, you know, like Tabasco." Waitress gave a  faint perceptible nod. Me, "I'll just take any bottle of hot sauce you have." Waitress's reply, "Yeah, but you can't take it with you."  And, she was serious.
  ??REALLY??
  Their menu is unexciting. But, actually the food was all right. Nothing special or memorable but we really had no legitimate food complaints. I'd compare their food to any of the chains like Chilis or Max & Ermas, etc. The chili was served in a very large coffee cup. Lots of meat & beans, a decent basic chili but it needed more seasoning/spice. We also had a philly steak sandwich with a side of home fries. The sandwich was pretty good but also needed more flavor, more pizzazz! But, the home fries were actually the best part of our meals. They were perfectly fried and very crispy without being dry.
  Would I return to this establishment? Probably not but I wouldn't be totally against it.
  Do I see this place being around very long? I doubt it. But, with some changes it could have potential.
