Disappointing. Spaghetti night was not good. It use to be one of our favorites but our last visit on 2-17-2021 it was tasteless and mine had a chemical smell which I think came from the parmesan cheese container may have been wiped with a disinfectant and it got on my food. Last night was the worst. I have to say the manager was excellent and very apologetic but one waitress brought our food and proceeded to chastise my husband in a loud enough voice that everyone quit eating and watched the exchange. They have one way in and one way out past the register. After waiting for our food for long enough time that I thought they would be bringing it out I was told they did not have what I had ordered so I opted for a cheeseburger. Not my first choice but I was hungry. It got cool in there while waiting so my husband went to the car for my sweater. The "in" door was locked so he went out through the door by the register. When he came back in the girl was standing at the grill and asked if he was there for a pick up order. He said no that he had already ordered and she very rudely told him it was too late to cook a meal. He said I already ordered I just went our for my wife's sweater. When she brought our food to the table she told him in a loud voice that she did not appreciate him being rude to her. He said you were rude to me first and she proceeded to continue her harassment and said her job was to stop people from coming in and she was just doing her job. I said you do not have to be so loud and rude here and she kept it up I told her you won't have to worry about us coming back here and from half way across the room she said they will suit me fine. Don't come back. We have been going to Kingsman for 40 years and have never had an issue. The manager was very nice and understood our frustration. She apologized but I am very reluctant to go back to a place that I may encounter that...

This place was recommended to us by a long time resident of Cola. We went on a busy Thursday night, but a table was open in their front entrance where the grill is, so we took that spot. Definitely has a “dive”-like feel and prices (considering the mainly steak fare), but sometimes I want that more causal/diner like atmosphere. Our waitress was absolutely fantastic while handling us, a few counter customers and all of the many to-go orders and checking out patrons.
My husband got the ribeye dinner and I got the ribeye hoagie. Although I’ve never had a ribeye hoagie before, I’ve been scouring the city for hoagie similar to the ones in the Mid-Atlantic region where I’m from. This so, so hit the spot. It was literally a small ribeye steak on a crusty hoagie roll with the classic lettuce, onions, tomato, Mayo. Perfection.
My husband said his steak was also quite good for the price/establishment tier. The ranch that he got on his salad was also delicious.
The only downside is that our waitress was explaining to us that ever since Covid, they’ve had to resort to crinkle fries (which I despise) in lieu of more traditional (aka: edible) fries. So my husband got a baked potato and I got onion rings as my side instead. Hopefully, they’ll be able to offer regular fries again in the future.
Overall, a fantastic recommendation to us and clearly extremely popular in town. Will most certainly...
Read moreIt's my local favorite burger joint that's down to earth, high quality of ingredients, beautiful restaurant aroma breathing life, not so loud, perfect for your Tuesday night dinner.
I've been going here since I was a sophomore in college at UofSC. I love it, this place is the place that made me fall in love with Pimento Cheese. I might have never experienced pimento cheese had it not for the palmetto burger on the menu! Not only that, each and every one of the side items are way above the cut with the quality and flavor intensity. The service might be a little slow, but I was treated like part of a family and it was always so homey when I visited!
My favorite burgers are the big blue [cheese] and the palmetto which has the pimento cheese. The ribeye burgers are big and meaty and the cheeses are so sharp in their flavor. You know how a burger might have a boring taste? Just barely the scent of the meat and the stale vegetables with a stereotypical bun? You will not get that here. I could definitely isolate and appreciate each ingredient between the two brioche buns. Very high detail each and every time forces me to admire their original recipe QC.
Come on down, enjoy some of their burgers, and...
