Tried far in advance to make a reservation for parents weekend but was booked. Due to a cancellation we get in! I'm from Chicago and have been to a few brunch and must say this place was Awesome. Better than a few places I've been to. The food was excellent, the staff were friendly , polite and helpful. The view was beautiful. Took a bit to get use to the revolving . I will be back!!!! Best brunch and priced reasonable. Thank you for a great experience . Students can use a meal plan here just need to pay the difference.
It’s been a long time since we’ve visited Top of Carolina and our first visit for their BBQ Friday lunch. We went the Friday before Easter for an “experience” with our 14 year old granddaughter. It exceeded all expectations. Other than finding a place to park, our lunch was perfect. There was a big selection of food; bbq, fried chicken, fish, salads, vegetables, deserts and ice tea, lemonade and coffee were included. It takes about an hour for a full rotation and we enjoyed the changing scenery. One of my favorite things is it’s casual....jeans, shorts and even baby strollers were there. For the price you can’t go wrong and our granddaughter had a meal she will remember for a long time. The servers couldn’t have been nicer and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed,
Just experienced our 2nd Mother's Day Brunch at the Top of Carolina restaurant. The food was delicious and plentiful. The wait staff very friendly and helpful. And the price for this buffet brunch is very reasonable. This has to be one of the best brunch options in the Columbia area. And the view of the downtown Columbia area from this revolving 18th floor restaurant is absolutely outstanding. We will come again.

You must make a reservation a week or longer in advance. We went on a Sunday with a reservation at 1:00 pm. Handicap parking is available in the dorm parking area and there is plenty of parking across the street. The building and restaurant are wheelchair accessible. You need to use the elevator on the left. The other one does not go up to the restaurant. When you go up the elevator, a host will greet you. They have an enclosed lift for 1 wheelchair or 1 person with a walker at the restaurant itself. I was in my wheelchair and had no problems. The tables and chairs are set up on a very slowly moving platform facing the window. There is an aisle behind the chairs and food stations set up on the inner wall alongside the aisle. You are able to walk around and get your food. The servers are awesome, the food is absolutely amazing and the view is wonderful! It is an all you can eat buffet. It is pricey but so worth it! The most pleasant surprise was their corn muffins. So sweet and moist! The potatoes were delicious, we loved the waffles with chocolate chips, omelets, ham, grits, great coffee too! Go and enjoy! Nice restrooms too!
Last week, my husband and I ate Sunday Brunch at Top of Carolina. We had never been to this restaurant and we didn't know what to expect. The meal was outstanding and so was the service... the shrimp and grits were the best and so was the smoked salmon. The restaurant is at the top of a skyscraper near the USC campus and the entire dining floor rotates around the building... the view is spectacular! We will go back to this restaurant in the near future.
