Was looking forward to dining here with a friend of mine today. Was greeted by a friendly server, however when my friend tried to order something that was not paired together on the menu (although clearly both items were sold at the restaurant), she was denied. There was no willingness from the server nor the "manager" to explain the decision, the response was just "no, we will not be able to do that". It was actually quite rude of the manager not to even come to the table to try to explain why he was unwilling to be flexible (even though she was willing to pay extra to be accommodated). We decided to go to another restaurant in Fort Mill called the Flip Side Cafe and really enjoyed ourselves! The food was phenomenal and so was the service. Unfortunately, we will not be back at Local Dish.

Note to management: If you are unwilling to accommodate your customers' varied dietary needs or requests, you need to explain politely WHY you are denying their request and offer other ways to make sure that they are satisfied and able to order from your menu.
