Restaurants near Saluda

“Warm, friendly, and inviting. The atmosphere you are hoping for when visiting a small town and a local coffee shop. Come check it out.”

“There are 2 spots I favor and Green River is one of them. Definitely a must-go-to spot. They have a variety of home-made sauces. A basic necessity for any real BBQ spot. Everything I've had here over the last 2 years I've left with a happy full belly

*update: went there they other day as I was in some dire need of sliced brisket. The last two places I went it was like a medium steak and kind of dry. NOT here. Just backs my review up. Also...noticed you can opt to buy the kitchen a round of drinks. Beer $10 (+tax). So I sure did.

Beans! Not a classic brown sugar mollases style. Hybrid as meat, not coney island dog style,and beans. A touch of sweetness but not much. If you want a new spin on beans, get them”

“Great food and excellent people”

“My wife and I just celebrated Valentine's Day 2026 here for dinner tonight. Never in my life have I wanted to loudly tell every soul I can reach what I really thought about an establishment, and at the same time want to keep my mouth shut so the secret doesn't get out. It appears they limit the number of reservations they take to allow proper service to the guests that make them in time. Did I enjoy it, you ask? I already made a reservation for Mother's Day Brunch and Valentine's Day 2027 on my way out of the restaurant. Make of that information what you will, and act accordingly.”

“just stopped in for quick lunch on the road. cleanest subway ive ever been into. friendly staff, quick service & katie had a great personality. Will definitely be back! the other lady was also pleasant! marie”

“My husband made a reservation last night on Rezzy, but the restaurant had no reservation for us. We went to another restaurant and tried to be seated without a reservation, and finially returned. The owner hostess sat us immediately. It was fun being in the old Greyhound bus terminal, all the lives that passed that building! The service was fantastic and team focused! I had we had argula salad, with juillianed watermellon radish with dates and hazel nut nuts- Amazing. we had Pita bread with pramasean cheese, moutain trout and hanger steak with crispy potaos. All was delicious but the dish that topped all was the olive oil cake with blood oranges and basil. so unique- not sweet, an amazing refreshing combination of flavors I'v not expierenced before. Top grades to the chef/owner. I love that this is a couple running a restaurant, totally want to support that! GO!”

“We were in town visiting family. Thankful they shared such a good find with us. All our meals were great, prepared well and tasty. The service was good. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. Also... SHOUT OUT to the girl who was working the pick up orders. She was KICKING BUTT out there! We ate inside, but definitely recognized how hard she was working! Light blond hair and braids... if she served you and you didn't tip... shame on you. She was working hard with a smile on her face, hustlin! Thank you!!”

“What an amazing experience! First, the cocktails!!!!!! Next, Chef Tory actually came out to say hello and talk about the menu. We literally ordered all the shared staters and can say each was amazing. They were meant to be together. Take your time and try out a few dishes; it was so satisfying.”

“10/10 recommend! Last weekend to decided to get out of the house with our 2yr old. We loved this place before having our son because of the outdoor space. The owner was so kind and let my son “help” take down some outdoor decorations. Then paid him for his hard work with a juice box. Made his night! Thank you!”
