Saturday afternoon with limited crowd. Good service. Clean tables. Decorated nicely. Many TVs to watch the game on. Good selection of beersBurgers were served with luke warm fries that had been sitting around for a while. They saved cost but lost a future customer. The burgers were average. Lots of condiments. Just average with warm fries.

Yesterday's has a great menu, choose between a meat and two veggies, entree, or a salad! I've been here several times, and love the Arkansas Traveler and Cuban pork loin. Service has always been great! Would recommend for a quick lunch, quiet dinner, or hanging with friends to watch a sports game.

We had a party of ten hang out here before dinner reservations at another restaurant. Huge selection of unusual beers, alcoholic lemonade and girly beers. I ordered off the local first tier on the menu. Everyone's drink was unique and enjoyable. Service was attentive. Atmosphere comfortable. Would go back and try other local beers anyway! Got the bill and was pleasantly surprised that we got Happy Hour prices.

Visited on Wednesday afternoon. Possibly 2 other tables at the most. We ordered appetizer chips/blue cheese and meals.The server checked on us 4 times prior to the appetizers coming out to see if we needed anything??? Ah, yes! The appetizer!After the appetizer the server check on us 3 more times before the hamburger arrived. Very attentive, but a waste of time. The blue cheese chips were soggy and not crisp.Then the hamburger came-it had been compacted into a hard ball and flattened squished and dried out. It was not juicy or tasty, but a dry hard clump.Not 45 seconds after the server dropped off the food they came back to see how the food was and if we needed anything-we were still fixing and cutting to eat!!!!The trips to the table every 3-4 minutes was crazy. The food was not that great.Michele739,Thank you your review and letting us know about your recent experience.

This is a real old-time oyster bar! The shuckers do their job right in front of you, and they are experts. 2 dozen oysters, and not a single piece of roster shell! The oysters were big and plump, and were the best that we had in Columbia.

I haven't eaten t the Hunter-Gatherer in a long time. Friends of ours wanted to try it prior to going to the James Taylor concert. I read several reviews the day before and everything sounded good. We decided to order from the Chef's Special menu. I had lamb chops and my wife had the gnocchi special. Another of our party had the gnocchi and his wife got the Mac n' Cheese dish. She enjoyed her dish, my lamb chops were OK, but I wouldn't order them again. The two in our party that had the gnocchi were very disappointed. The both said, "No flavor with a burned after taste." They asked for vinegar which they applied liberally, to add some flavor to the dish. Unfortunately we were on a tight schedule due to the concert and didn't have time to send the dishes back.
