By far the best restaurant in Greenville. They never disappoint. We always love taking our friends and family to Abyss.

Enjoyed an evening at ABYSS Greenville but didn't enjoy the price tag... Nice atmosphere. Good service. Food was very expensive and portions were small. Atmosphere and service not worth the high dollar prices.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary at Abyss. It was a great experience from beginning to end. The staff was warm, friendly and very attentive. The service was excellent, our needs were anticipated and everything flowed smoothly. The food was incredible, we enjoyed oysters from the raw bar and our appetizers and dinner were absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special night out, good atmosphere and service and incredible food.

I’m honestly disappointed with this restaurant. I came here with my girlfriend for a date and it was extremely over priced for what you get. I ordered the Lobster pappardelle which I was told was going to be a light white wine sauce. It was extremely Smokey and you couldn’t even taste the lobster. I tried to tell the waiter but he just told me they’ve never gotten that feedback before. My gf took a bite of what she thought was a white sauce on her ahi tuna and it was just cold butter. I’m frustrated because this was easily one of the most expensive restaurants I’ve eaten at in Greenville. This was more expensive than coral and halls and was very underwhelming. The only part we enjoyed was the cocktails although we waited for 20+ minutes on a drink.

Very underwhelming especially for the price. My Chilean sea bass was extremely undercooked, when I put my fork in it, a huge amount of water came out and the meat was not white but almost clear/ translucent and had 0 flavor. It was like eating water. The shrimp that comes with the calamari app was not fresh and was obviously borderline rotten by the smell. On top off all that the presentation of the food and plates was boring and looked like what you’d expect from an Outback Steakhouse. Waitress was nice but slow and would disappear for along periods of time. Ambiance and vibe were off, mo music playing so it was just awkwardly silent in the space. A little nit picky, but One of the tvs over the bar was left in the menu guide the entire time we were there, just shows how little attention to detail is given thete. Won’t be back.

Wonderful lunch served by an attentive staff. Dwayne is an amazing host who took great care of us from start to finish. All of our dishes were plentiful and delicious. The short rib eggs benedict was enough to share and filled with tender beef. Bone marrow oysters were sweet and had the right amount of marrow. Craft cocktails exceptional. Bravo!

We love going to Abyss! It’s one of our favorite restaurants downtown. The food is excellent! Always quality food with fresh ingredients. Also, the service is great. We love all the tuna dishes. You must try the Abyss oysters. There’s nothing like them around Greenville. It’s a wonderful atmosphere too. It’s a great place to celebrate any occasion!

I recently visited this restaurant for the first time for a wedding rehearsal dinner, and it was absolutely wonderful! The atmosphere is elegant and welcoming — perfect for a special occasion or a romantic date night. The seafood was fresh and beautifully prepared, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. Greenville is lucky to have such a fine dining gem! I’ll definitely be back soon.
Taylor and Patrick were the best servers I’ve ever encountered in my entire life. They made the evening the very definition of spectacular. Dom is, without a doubt, the best chef who ever lived or chefed ever. Tina went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly. If you haven’t been here yet, you have to go, the best restaurant that has ever existed.

I really enjoyed my birthday dinner at Abyss! It came as a recommendation and did not disappoint. I found that they validate parking in the Moxy hotel garage, so there were no issues pulling right up and getting a spot. The staff was very friendly and accommodating- they even were kind enough to comp my birthday dessert 😊. I had the chargrilled oysters, grilled octopus, salad, seabass and risotto. Every single bite was worth raving over! Drinks were delightful and my overall experience was great. Highly recommend Abyss for an elegant night out... but you can equally have that elegance at their lovely bar as well!

Welcoming staff, Dwayne was very accommodating. Our server Ignacio was sublime, helpful and pleasant. Our food was coked to perfection, and the menu is very diverse, something for everyone! This restaurant is truly the "Black Pearl" of Greenville, SC, its a rare dining treasure!

The Food and Service are always amazing! Drinks were amazing as well! I will definitely be back to get the Roasted Oysters, Wagyu, and the Octopus! By far the Best Seafood in Greenville, if you haven’t been here you’re more missing out!
