Who we are


Kickers Takeout is a family-owned restaurant in the heart of Greenwood, South Carolina, known for bold flavors, homemade soups, and genuine Southern hospitality. Founded by Chef Abdel Demiati, whose journey began in Zimbabwe before coming to Greenwood to play soccer at Lander University, Kickers blends global inspiration with down-home comfort.

What started as a small takeout spot quickly became a local favorite, thanks to Chef Abdel’s passion for flavorful cooking, generous portions, and the welcoming spirit that makes every guest feel like family.

From signature dishes like the Sundance Pimento Cheese Burger and Hand-Battered Mozzarella Cheese Sticks to creative sandwiches, fresh salads, and daily soup samplers, Kickers offers a menu that’s both familiar and full of surprises. Featured on South Carolina ETV’s “Backroad Bites,” Kickers has earned a loyal following and a reputation for quality, flavor, and heart.

Whether you’re grabbing takeout, dining in, or catering a special event, Kickers Takeout delivers the same promise every time — great food, friendly faces, and the feeling of home in every bite.
