Blue Marlin ( Dining / Other ). Located at 1200 Lincoln Street. Legend holds that the wealthy English, German and French plantation owners along the Carolina and Georgia coasts preferred a blander European cuisine, but while they dined in all their elegance, the aroma of Low Country flavors coming out from the back kitchens could not be ignored. This simple fare, created from what the good earth provided, is still a hallmark of the Southern kitchen some three hundred years later. www.bluemarlincolumbia.com Link

The Kingsman Restaurant ( Dining / Other ). Located at 936 Axtell Drive, Cayce, 2 miles from the center of Columbia. In 1972, Steve King and his brother Aubrey King purchased what was then known as Mamma Mia’s Pizza and transformed it into The Kingsman Restaurant. Keeping many of the original Italian dishes, the brothers slowly started adding their own specialties – such as the pimento cheeseburger, taz’s taters and home cooked lunches. Delicious as they were, it was their hearty ribeyes – locally aged and originally priced at $1.85 – that established The Kingsman as THE place in Columbia to get a great steak. www.thekingsmanrestaurant.com Link
