it's a service that can store scripts (or objects you paste in) much like ServerStorage.

Scripts run in it, like the workspace, except they don't replicate.

Does server storage or server script storage render the scripts/parts locally? or are they nonexistent on the user's roblox application until called upon by a script?

It is not replicated meaning it is not sent.

can you run scripts in serverscriptservice like you would a normal script? (on touch of a part on click of a button on server start on player join etc) or do you need some special thing?

ServerStorage: a storage container for objects that only the server can access.

ReplicatedStorage: a storage container for objects the the server and client can access.

ServerScripService" a 'storage' container for objects, but server-sided scripts can run in here making it slightly more safer than putting them in Workspace as they are not replicated.

If isolating server scripts from clients is something you want, then yes, it's better. I don't think the difference would affect lag much, if at all.

@cntkillme is serverstorage rendered on the client side and would serverscriptservice minimize lag a bit because they are not replicated?

I think a very important point you all missed out is
ServerStorage is that : just storage. Scripts wont run here until they are cloned out or moved.
I am unsure if the same goes for replicated storage but it probably does.
