Social Grill

This was an average place to grab a bite to eat on Sunday after church. They serve brunch from 11AM — 2PM on Sundays.
I ordered the French toast. It was undercooked and gooey.
Overall, minus 1 star for cleanliness and minus 1 star for a limited menu. Parking was plentiful and free in their private lot. Service was average but friendly.
I am not sure this is the place to come if you just want to grab a bite to eat.

Good food… Had a burger that was cooked as I asked. My wife and I will return, though need to make sure we have time… seemed like the kitchen staff doesn’t show until after they open… slow kitchen to table… attendants work to make up for it…

Food was delicious Appetizer fried green tomatoes was out of this world! At our table pork chops, Reuben sandwich, fish and chips, steak salad, wings and cedar plank salmon was all wonderful. We had a very attentive server. Too full to try the desserts but I will leave room for the tres Leche cake the next visit

One of the best most friendly restaurants around. Food is almost gourmet and they have craft beers on tap. All of the sauces are great. Try the Mac and cheese or Italian egg rolls!

Food was pretty good. Burger was great, chicken salad had a lot of mayo. The kitchen is really slow.

I have been here 2 times now. Both times I have had the social grill burger. This burger patty is very fresh and juicy and I love the jalapeño pimento sauce that they put on it. I have also tried their jalapeño pimento dip. The first time I tried it it was very good and creamy. The second time I tried this dip it tasted pretty salty maybe as if it wasn’t stirred or something. All in all its close to me and it’s not a bad place to grab a decent burger.

2^nd time for Sunday breakfast/​brunch inside and once prior for dinner on patio. Food good, ample and prices OK. Only setback is once ordered, food takes way too long to be served. Not sure if kitchen is understaffed or what.

Not your average bar food is correct. We ate there on a Tuesday for lunch, the salads were $ 2 off for lunch that day. The Social Salad with chicken was great, a little small, but filling enough and tasty beyond my expectations (blue cheese dressing on the side was my choice). I commend the kitchen staff, they must have a real chef. The hamburger which I had half (my friend shared) was outstanding, maybe the best burger I have had all year. Even the bun was good. If I lived in Ballentine I would eat a salad or burger here once a week. The booth gave good privacy as well. It is a big place, not very busy for lunch. Staff was friendly and helpful. I give them an «A». Service was reasonably fast as well.

We have ordered the seafood specials, burgers and wings. Everything has been above average. They have a great selection of beer. I like wine, but they have little to offer if you enjoy a nice Chardonnay. Would love to see more options. The wait staff are great and strive to please. The back portion of the restaurant is NOT where you want to eat. The bar area and covered outdoor area is the place to be. This establishment provides live music and really good bands. So here is my only complaint… nasty cigarette smoke!!! The bar is smoke-​free but you can’t hear the music inside. If you want to hear the band, you will have to sit outdoors and your hair and clothing will smell disgusting. Enjoyed the band tonight but would have enjoyed it much more with clean air. Get real people… we know the damage cigarettes causes!

Not your average «bar food»! Great prime rib, macaroni and cheese and grilled chicken. Can’t wait to go back! We thought the egg rolls were really good! Courtney, our server, was awesome!

Service is good, not great. Food is overpriced. Especially the appetizers! $ 7 for 4 «stuffed» tomato slices is ridiculous!!! Average table of four everyone gets one bite.

Man, I was suuuper skeptical about this place due to the location, but my wife talked me into trying it and it’s pretty good. We’ve been a couple of times now. Once with the family in the day time, and food from the bar at night another. I don’t have any complaints about the food other than the fact that it seems just a little pricey for what it is. The service is on point — hostess, waitstaff, and bartenders have all been extremely friendly and competent on each visit.

Maybe if you’re drunk or have no taste buds this place is good.
Italian egg rolls. Raw on inside.
Wing chips. harder than rocks.
Macaroni and cheese. Old tasting with some funky off ingredients. Tastes old.
Wings were old tasting. Everything has a frozen, not quite unthawed and cooked way too quickly with too hot of grease taste. Horrible seasonings on the fries that make you choke. Why I didn’t send it back is beyond me. Sick on my stomach now. Raw egg rolls are likely the culprit. Our waiter was good. I hope when this place closes, which it will, he can find a good job.

Great craft beers! We decided to have a beer on New Years Eve, we went early before everyone else was out celebrating. Wait staff was nice, food was good, beer was excellent! We will be going back.

We have eaten here quite a few times. The service is always excellent! They have good beer on draft. Specials. But the food is just okay unfortunately, otherwise it would be a solid 4. I realize it can’t be helped but I feel like my food shouldn’t taste like it is a freezer entrée. Some of the items are of this nature. However, the social does have good salads.

It’s was the only place open on Sunday. It took forever that is time I will never ever get back.

The service is exceptional; bartender learns your name and uses it. Food was hot, tasty and fast. The environment is clean with both inside and outside seating areas. This is a great watering hole or place to grab dinner on the way.

Everytime I’ve come here the food is way above average. The bartenders are always attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is very, well social. I’ve also spoken to the owner quite a few times and he seems to really care about his business and the customers, I guess that shows too because he has been there actively involved in the workings of the restaurant every time I’ve gone. If your looking for a decent brew and great food to watch the game over, this spot is a gem.

First time here. Came on a Sunday afternoon so it was a little slow. Has a slightly upscale feel but it’s a casual bar. Great craft beers on tap and a very diverse menu. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger which was full of flavor. It came out very fast and was cooked the way I requested.
Also had an appetizer of the stuffed fried green tomatoes, which were awesome, and I hate tomatoes.
Will definitely be back to try other menu items.

Joined a birthday party of 20 for my first attempt here. The parking lot was full which is always a sign of a good restaurant. Was surprise how big the layout was once inside. The staff and owners were very attentive and friendly. The layout was upscale and cozy combined. Family-​friendly yet with a nice pub twist. Also includes a nice outdoor patio perfect for a band or enjoy the nice weather.
The menu includes a lot of options but was impressed to see shepherds pie included. Our appetizer jalapeño pimento cheese dip was great. The fried ravioli was an equal. My Ahi tuna salad was huge. But the show stopper for me was the pork ribeye. Which I already want again, comes with two sides. And I nailed it with the jalapeño cheese grits and fries (which seemed to have an awesome baked bacon favor). MoMo’s prime rib was big delicious and flavorful.
SC also has a nice size room for after diner drinks as well. And includes a wide range of options from popular drafts, nice wine list, to top shelf liquor.
I will definitely return and this is the reason Unilocal was made. To spread the good word.
