Universal Joint

Great local hangout. Good pub-type fare, always good service.Patio in the summer is really nice.

Made a visit here over the weekend. The atmosphere was casual and lively. There were folks watching the game and some just there to eat. The service was friendly and quick. The veggie burger was solid. Overall, a nice neighborhood / sports bar with great atmosphere.

Heard good things from friends and had a cool interior. Brunch on Sunday runs until 3pm. We wanted burgers not brunch but unfortunately the only burgers on the menu were a slider special. Boyfriend opted to try them and said they were decent but nothing great. I opted for the breakfast plate - scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes, simple right? Nope. Eggs were not completely scrambled and were overcooked and burnt like they had been precooked and reheated. But they were somehow also cold. Potatoes were soft and flavorful but slimy from grease and overloaded with onions and somewhat cold as well like they also had been precooked and reheated. Bacon was ok but not great.. but only palatable thing on the plate. Service was also strange as there were 2 people waiting on us, but both seemed off their game or new or something. Just worst brunch I've ever had. Would I return for brunch? - no. Would I return ever? - no.

Came here with some friends for a lunch. They were busy but we were lucky enough to find a table. The food is good and pretty unique imo. It wasn't just regular burgers. They were well made with fresh toppings. Our server was great! I wish the parking situation was better! We had to park across the street behind another business.

After closing on our new home yesterday my wife & I decided to celebrate with a couple pints and some appetizers. She had been wanting to try this place for a couple of weeks so we decided to see what Universal Joint was all about. I do wish it had gone better.So from jump street, the parking situation is rough. I get that getting in & out of businesses on Stone Ave/Laurens Rd is tricky business, but the hassle alone is a huge turnoff for me. There is a tiny parking lot behind the restaurant, and no side street parking. We ended up driving down the street to the bowling alley and parked there and walked back over.From there, I will say this restaurant's layout is very cool and the staff is very polite. We ordered a couple pints and the Buffalo Shrimp skewers and the spicy egg rolls. The flavors were very good, but for the price point, the portions are way too small. As an aside, I also got Buffalo sauce in my eye while eating the shrimp skewers but my wife said that was my own fault.We did follow up with the half order wings with tots and for 9 bucks that was a good deal and I liked the wings, so there's a bright spot. All told, I think I'm going to need to come back again and see how their entrees are and see if I can bump this place up another star. But between the parking situation and the small appetizers, three stars is the best I can do for now, but I'll be back.

The atmosphere is awesome. Who wouldn't want to eat in an indoor/outdoor garage style place with dogs hanging about! Kids are also welcome! The food was so fresh and delicious. Drinks were equally as tasty. We are not local but glad we passed and decided to stop here!

This is the first time we've ordered from Universal Joint and it won't be the last. I wanted a truly medium rare burger and they made it perfectly. Great burger! My husband got tater tots and an eggroll, both delicious ( and I'm not a tater tot person but these were good). Close to home and really good. We'll be back

Our food was delicious, amazing wait staff, self seating, great vibe there, awesome for a date night or just a quick bite!

We got their brisket nachos at Fall For Greenville for 8 tickets ($8). It only consisted of a whole lot of tortilla chips with very tiny amounts of beef, beans, corn, jalapeños and queso dip. Maybe half a cup! So disappointing. I realize that small portions are sold at Fall for Greenville but they should be selling something besides a bunch of tortilla chips to try to win business from hundreds of people that are trying their food there for the first time. We will not be going to this restaurant.

Burgers are delicious!!! I like the Smashburger and love the wings. My sis gets the Smokehouse burger Every time we go, which is almost every weekend... literally. Hummus plate is delicious and I like the pimiento cheese bc it doesn't have a lot of mayo in it.Service is friendly. They like dogs and kids too. Atmosphere is chill and relaxing. Best ima nice day bc there is more oustide seating than inside!
