Haven't been here in about 3 decades ...I now about fit in with the golden oldies that eat here..ha...I used to eat there with co-workers when I worked W. Ashley. We'd alternate between the now gone Morrison's cafeteria that used to be at Citadel Mall. My girlfriend and I decided to stop in before beginning our antiquing rounds at the local french boutiques "Le Goodweel" (Goodwill) Nice clean place with pleasant decor and friendly staff. Great country-like homestyle cooking with a variety of everthing..salads, desserts, vegetables, meat entrees, breads. I had the chicken tampico special with 2 veggies for 6.99..can't beat that. I had never had chicken tampico...it was like a big breaded piece of chicken fillet with jalepeno slices for a pleasant kick, topped with a creamy based soup gravy with a few veggies in the gravy. I chose a mayonaise mixed salad and eggplant casserole. Portions are just right ..filling, but u won't overdo it. Our table attendant was excellent and found us a slice of egg custard pie. She couldn't locate a homemade brownie for me..but no brownie on me lips equals no brownie on de hips. My girlfriend and I split the egg custard pie..not as soothing as chocolate but hit the spot! The only thing worse than doing drunk shopping is hungry shopping. Thanks to S&S we were full up and didn't overspend today. We decided we definitely have to resume going back here to eat more than once in a few decades! Your parents and grandparents will love this place.

My father in law insist on eating here. I probably wouldn't go there any other time. Today the food was pretty good. Not too bad.

My parents came to visit here in Charleston and wanted to go out to eat at S&S Cafeteria for lunch. Now, my parents are in their 60s and happen to like the cafeteria style dining places- of course as a twentysomething, I'm really not a fan. But, if grandma or mom is coming to town, this isn't a bad place for them. It definitely caters (no pun intended) to the 60+ crowd. First, the portions are fairly small. It's enough food for lunch, but you won't leave super stuffed. It's meat + 2 vegetables + bread, but I got the 4 vegetable plate. Even as a vegetarian, I found quite a few options and the vegetables weren't drowning in meat- which was good! My food reminded me of church food, pretty comforting. I had macaroni and cheese, squash (delicious!), green beans, and carrots. My mom had the lasagna, and my dad had the beef liver (eww! But it's the only place you can find it in CHS). He had peach cobbler for dessert and that was the only food that was a bit disappointing- it wasn't sweet at all. But, as I said, this place is mostly older people, so maybe they don't want it too sweet to spike their "sugar". You go through a line and pick out your food. If you're mobility impaired, don't despair. There are staff to assist and set you up at a table, or get you whatever you need. Very accommodating for walkers and wheelchairs. So, it wasn't where I really wanted to go, and my husband and I probably wouldn't just choose to go back there- it's not our style. But, the food was good, the prices were cheap (all three of us ate for under $25), and there's to-go, without having to walk through the line. If you want elaborate, expensive, good quality food, Charleston has tons of options. But if this is grandpa's request, go ahead and take him to S&S, spend time with him, and you'll get a pretty decent meal.

I'm in my 20's and have always enjoyed this place. It reminds me of my grandparents and how they would always want to eat here when they were in town. They unfortunately have passed and I still go in here by myself during the day to eat some good "home cooked" southern food. It always makes me happy when I'm in there. Cheap prices, delicious food and SUPER friendly workers.

We visit here on Sunday's after church service. The food is homemade from scratch, tastes like Grandmas cooking. It is cafeteria style walk through line, but the service is great in the dining room, your drinks are always full. The prices are awesome too, there is a great selection and lots of choices for the kids.
