Visited during the Christmas holidays during lunch. Place was packed so we sat at the bar. First off, I LOVE to sit at the bar. You get to meet nice people (as was the case at the RY) AND you get to watch the magic going on in the kitchen. Drinks: The beer selections are BOSS. If you like a hoppy beer as I do, they have two that are delicious. The coconut/chocolate beer is amazing. Apps: excellent way to get your feet wet. Main Course: The recommended Shrimp and Grits were outstanding. A mix of caramelized onions, peppers an... read more

Service is awful. The people honestly do not care if you patron their restaurant. The food is fine if you want to wait long enough to get it. Last trip we left without getting our drinks... waitress and hostess watched as we left. I made it a point to be obvious that we were leaving and unhappy.. not one (hostess,waitress,waiter) said a word. I can't imagine why anyone would want to spend their time and money at this place. So far we have been twice and both times have been horrible experiences. We won't make the mistake of ... read more

Business response:

Jordan, I am appalled at the level of service or lack thereof that you have received on your visits to The Railyard. I sincerely apologize for the gross oversight on behalf of the staff and myself. I assure this is not our standard of service, I admit that as we have grown that we have made some mis-steps. If you do ever decide to give us another try, I urge you to ask for Chef Bill, so that I can apologize face to face. Thank you for your feedback, I will be using it as reference in all further server/hostess training.

I've visited twice. The first time we waited at least 10 minutes before someone took our drink orders, and that was after we'd gotten the attention of two servers. The burgers and atmosphere are great if you can get service. The second visit no single server ever approached our table. Four different servers walked by us and waited on other tables- delivering checks, taking drink orders, even taking pictures of one party. We left our seats while the hostess watched us. She didn't say a word to us as we left. The food is too g... read more

Business response:

Charleston, I sincerely apologize for the service that you received in your past visit and am appalled at the fact that you received no service last evening. Typically our service standards are very high and I am embarrassed at the level of service that you have received on your visits. If you do ever decide to give us another opportunity to serve you, I ask that you ask for Chef Bill, so that I can apologize face to face and try to win you over as a regular guest.

The food was excellent, extremely flavorful and we'll presented. Service was great considering the crowd that was there. Short wait time for seating as well. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice dinner.
