Bert's just opened in the shopping center that houses the SC DMV. The restaurant itself consists of a large open dining room with a bar area (with high tables and bar stools along the bar) with a sports theme.
I was seated quickly in the dining room area and perused the single sheet menu. Think American with a twist. Items on the menu included cajun meatloaf, chicken and waffles, and stuffed burgers. Of particular note, was the option of fresh sweet potato chips as a side option.
I chose an appetizer of chips and guacamole ($4.95) and a lunch order of salmon tacos ($8.25 for two) with a side of the sweet potato chips. Suprisingly, they let me order the lunch order during the dinner hour.
The chips and guac came out within five minutes of ordering. The guac was pretty smooth with some chunks of pepper scattered throughout. The chips were good, but were not served warm. Bummer. My tacos came out not more than 10 minutes after the chips. There were two flour tortillas chock full of salmon with a pineapple blue-cheese slaw and chipotle sauce. The tacos were killer. I'd get them again in a heartbeat. The chips I got on the side were still warm and were drizzled with a maple cream cheese sauce. The sauce provided a nice sweet compliment to the sweet potato taste.
Service was great and my waiter was really friendly. I'll be back!
