11 Best Southern Restaurants near Greenville

“Google reviews led me to this wonderful restaurant and I’m so grateful! We live in New Bern, but Mom had a Drs appointment at ECU Monday afternoon. We were hungry and wanting a good sit down meal before we drove back in the rain. It was super close to ECU, good parking, which was nice since it was raining lol! You walk in and are immediately faced with rows of their multi-layered decadent cakes, I can’t adequately describe what an OMG view those masterpieces are! Anyway, we were quickly seated, and I cannot say enough good things about Ella, our waitress! Mom and I ordered the flounder and shrimp. Absolutely delicious! And I have to say their tartar sauce was house made and totally on point! It had the perfect amount of dill. Our sides, everything was delicious! I brought home some slices of the Italian Cream and Reese’s chocolate cake, and Dear Lord…amazing! This is our go to restaurant when in Greenville, don’t hesitate to try, you really won’t be disappointed!!“

“One of the best places I’ve been so far“

“Elegant, novel, and indulgent perfectly describe Homage. We shared crab rangoon dip and the lettuce wraps (pictured) and oysters with chorizo and short ribs (not pictured). Very decadent dishes, and given what we ordered it felt a little heavy (next time we're getting the macadamia encrusted mahi 😋). The gin cocktail with lavender foam was absolutely incredible. However, be warned there is a shared plate fee ($7) that was off putting given how much we ordered to share. Overall the vibes were immaculate ❣️“

“Atmosphere, Food, Service and Music. It's a refuge in an ocean of fast and processed food restaurants.. The culture is evident and engaging in a warm and inviting way. Thomas McKinney“

“This was my first time here. I have a habit of checking a restaurants sanitation score before going there. There score is an impressive 97.5. My salad was fresh and crisp. I love that I can choose my chicken salad, from a choice of many, and you get a cookie for dessert. A great affordable lunch.“

“We have visited this Biscuitville (1970 , S.E. Greenville Blvd.) numerous times. We always experience great service, good food and a friendly atmosphere. This morning, Kayla was very friendly and welcoming. Later she visited our table to make sure our meal was good. The food was excellent! Her smiling face made us feel special and appreciated.“

“Today was my first time trying this place, I did it in the new location in Greer, I must say that the service was 10/10, the staff was extremely friendly, attentive and agile. I had an ultimate bacon biscuit and it was also a 10/10 great flavor and the biscuit was soft and not dry. On the side I had country fries and they were delicious. I will definitely return to this place!!“

“Gabby is an excellent manager—kind, considerate, and genuinely attentive. She went out of her way to acknowledge a past situation at Cheddar’s, even though she didn’t have to, showing her dedication and curiosity. Kudos to Gabby for her professionalism and kindness—she’s truly a great manager!“
