J Peters Grill & Bar - Carolina Forest in South Carolina

"We will be adding this restaurant to our rotation! The crab cake appetizer was fantastic. The salad that comes with your entree comes with had a fresh croissant with a honey drizzle. Yum! The blackened salmon was good, but the ribs...OMG they were fall of the bone amazing - very meaty and generous portion. Good beer/drink selection. Can't wait to go back and try the burgers. Highly recommend!!!"

"We enjoy a variety of foods from the whole meals, Rib eyes to the best she carb soup, salmon with lots of veggies to choose from. Our servers were cheerful and ame to please. Hope glad to go back soon."

"Food and service was great and it was super clean inside. Donna is a great waitress :)"

"Not loud music at all which I love. Also there are clear acrylic windows between bar area and dining tables which provide even better noise cancelling. Comfortable warm lights. As for food, appetizers were great. Fresh and yummy salad topped with crushed boiled eggs. Potato skins a bit burnt but still good. What I wasn't impressed was main dish. Steak was cold. Fried onions on the burger, I took all of them off because it was too oily. The lettuce on the burger looked dead as if lettuce is made out of wax. It might have taken awhile until dish was delivered to customer's table after plating. Probably kitchen wanted to deliver all the dishes together same time. On the contrary lettuce on the salad was fresh. Before I see the main dishes, I thought I finally found another awesome restaurant where I can come along with my friends, but, no. Server Sera is wonderful. She attended our table probably ten times kept asking if there is anything we'd need or she can help with. Thank you, Sera!"

"Don't miss out on this spot for lunch! I had the Prime Rib on the early bird menu & it was so delicious! She crab soup was excellent & my husband's salad looked really good too! The table next to us had sandwiches and they were impressive!! We will be back!"

"We tried another location and were pleased, so we came to this location. We appreciate the early bird special pricing and arrived at 5pm. We were seated right away. I had a surgery requiring me to use a knee scooter. We were sat at a small 2 top table, but it's location was busy and noisy. Service was very good, the food was very good, but the water was awful. We each tried something new and were not disappointed. I know we live in a time where people chage for using credit cards, or offer a discount for cash. We don't often carry cash but, had enough to cover the bill and tip. We will continue to visit several more locations."

"Sept 2025 - Food was great and view was awesome. We sat on the outdoor patio and had the burger and the early bird crab cakes. It was a lot of food. The salad that came with the crab cakes was large and tasty. The sauce on the cakes was great. Sweet tea was very southern and lots of sugar so might want to do a half and half. Very good. Loaded mash potatoes side was excellent as well. The server asked the cook if the crab cakes was lump or shredded, they informed me it was lump, however it is actually shredded. They were good but was misled on the type of cakes and being from Maryland, I am very particular about my crab. However, I'd still order again. Note: The fried onions in my picture did not come with the crab cakes. They were from the burger."

"Always a good meal at J.Peters. It’s a good restaurant. Clean, roomy, easy access, and fresh food. The price is in line with the food you receive. The employees are always very friendly and kind. The only thing I have to say and it’s not really a bad thing, but, the place doesn’t have much personality. Kind of boringly decorated. Very much a strip mall, no individuality nor style. The first thing are the booths, they just remind me of a fast food setting. Everything laid out in a grid pattern with boring dark colors. It’s just boring inside. I would add some personality to the place, give people something to look at while they’re munching away. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great restaurant with great workers. It just doesn’t have style, a personality. Make sure you go and enjoy your meal. I think that if each one of us brings something into the place to stick on the wall, before you know it, there will be some charm."
