The Diner on St. Clair . Not your typical restaurant but an excellent change of pace. Located downtown near the Oregon District and the convention center. Good food but expensive. Crowded during dinner hours with dates and teens.
Chicken dishes are very tasty.
Several locations in the area. Golden Nugget . Denny's but with excellent food and service. Located on Keowee north of Downtown and at the corner of South Dixie and Dorothy Lane. Very, very crowded during the usual breakfast and lunch hours.
