What's being built on Columbia's Garners Ferry? A popular restaurant is coming

A popular Midlands Mexican restaurant is constructing a new location along a busy Columbia Road. Tacos Nayarit, which already has two local locations, is building a restaurant at 7335 Garners Ferry Road. That’s just east of Interstate 77. The Mexican restaurant will be on land that formerly was home to a Shoney’s restaurant, which closed last year . The Shoney’s building was demolished, and construction work has begun on what will be the new Tacos Nayarit. The State reported in February that Tacos Nayarit’s owners had purchased the property. Tacos Nayarit touted the coming Garners Ferry Road location in an Oct. 28 Facebook post. The post indicated the restaurant will open there in spring 2027. Tacos Nayarit has long had a popular restaurant on Percival Road in Columbia. It debuted a second location at 1100 Knox Abbott Drive in Cayce in April 2025. The menu at Tacos Nayarit has offerings including birria tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas and much more.

Welcome To South Carolina’s Own “Little Germany,” Where This Old-School Market Keeps Traditional Flavors Alive

The iced tea at this little deli is billed as the “Best in Town.” That’s a brave claim in South Carolina, where sweet tea is practically a family member. Then there’s the house dill dressing, a recipe so beloved it carries the shop’s own name. Add German meatloaf, Black Forest ham, and deli meats sliced to order, and my stomach starts paying close attention.

Where can you have open containers of alcohol in the Grand Strand this Halloween?

This Halloween falls on a Saturday, and spooky celebrants are sure to be out at parties and events across the Myrtle Beach area. For those planning to imbibe this weekend, here’s what to know about alcohol and open container laws in the Grand Strand. Grand Strand areas that allow open containers Every October, Conway transforms into the City of Halloween with creepy decorations and spooky events. During the celebration, pedestrians are permitted to carry beer and wine – but not hard liquor – in non-glass containers on city sidewalks and property downtown.
