    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.

    Made reservations 3 weeks in advance for our anniversary. Would have been nice to have been placed at a better table. We were next to the server station and near the restrooms

    It was a lovely place for our Anniversary dinner. Carson, our server could not have been better! She met all of our needs, answered all questions, and anticipated refills. The Fried green tomatoes we had for an appetizer were great! I think everyone at the table was satisfied with their entree except me. My steak (filet) was too saucy, and crusted on the outside. I prefer plain and tender.

    Great date-night restaurant. Tables are not crammed together, noise level is better than most places, and food is delicious.
