50 Best American Restaurants in Greenville

“The Anchorage is hands down our favorite dining experience in GVL! The tasting menu never disappoints and the cocktails are delicious. The service is absolutely impeccable. I love their creativity and get inspired every time we eat there!“

“Hall’s Chophouse has put itself as my #1 dinning experience so far. We reserved a stop for our wedding anniversary and couldn’t not have asked for a better dinner. The food was absolutely phenomenal. The steak was to perfection. Taylor and staff were the absolute best. Thank you for a wonderful anniversary dinner.“

“Alice H was an absolute treat! My brother was visiting from the UK and she made sure the night was fun and memorable for him! One of the best servers I’ve experienced in a long time at a lot of establishments. I will say I enjoy every time I visit, however I wish it was more budget friendly for the games!“

“We finished a five day trip to Greenville by having dinner at Soby's. It was packed on a Friday night serving up their "reimagined" Southern Fare. Ordinarily, I would dive in and tell you about all the great food, instead I want to give props to the two line cooks working the Grill and Sautée stations in the kitchen. Our table on the second level looked right down the back (cooking) line. If you've watched The Bear television series you get to see a dramatized version of how a commercial kitchen operates. At Soby's we saw these two guys in action. A nine-steak order at four different temps, no problem. They mowed through an average of 9-10 tickets on the "rail" all night with God knows how many orders per ticket. Great job. Great job indeed! We started our dinner with the Mussles Mariniere sautéed in a bacon, leeks, Manzanilla sherry, cream. So good. I wish the chef would serve four pieces of toast with the dish so you could soak up more of the sauce. I had to try the She Crab Soup, as it is one of my favorites, and Soby's version with aged sherry bowled me over. For our entrees, our server suggested a combination of half portions of their Shrimp and Grits and Crab Cakes. Apparently my wife is not the only one who couldn't decide between the two, and thus a special was born. The crab cakes had a sweet corn maque choux and were served with haricots verts and a mashed potatoes, remoulade. From words on a menu to executed perfection it was a perfect blend of flavors. The shrimp and grits were good, not the best we have ever had, but again perfectly prepared. My entrée was the Braised Beef Short Rib served with mashed potatoes and a Black Garlic Molasses Jus. I watched my dudes on the line make over 20 of these before mine arrived at the table. Fork-tender, the meat had a great depth of flavor from its long journey of preparation. I ate every bite, OK except for the payback bites to my wife for sampling her special. We finished dinner with a piece of their Limoncello Cheese cake followed espressos and Ameretto. Our waitress was perfect all evening. She had a very busy section, but kept the coursing of dinner moving in a relaxed pace. We never felt rushed. Before I end, a word about wine at Soby's. When you arrive at the table, you are given a wine tome. Not a sheet of paper or a wine list you are used to seeing in most establishments. This was a tomb, bound in a metal cover. Soby's owner is a vinophile and has amassed over 2500 wines on the list, that is always changing as choices are enjoyed and more added. It really is quite a stunning list. So get you some Soby's if you're in town. It was a wonderful experience. You too can enjoy food bliss“

“I had the most wonderful experience on April 30, 2023 at The Loft at Soby’s! I highly recommend the Chef’s tasting dinner and I understand they have some upcoming dates available. The menu was 6 courses, but actually there were about 8 or 9 fabulous courses served. The wines chosen by the sommelier were perfect, including a great champagne and a lovely port. This special dinner at The Loft at Soby’s will remain at the very top of my memories and no one is better at making special memories than Soby’s!“

Definitely a gem in Greenville.“

“We order the single rack of ribs with loaded baked potato and Caesar salad and the Cali poke bowl with miso Salmon. Ribs were good. I'm glad that they didn't load up the ribs with their sauce because for me it was enough without drowning the natural taste of the meat. They were not very meaty but they were tender. Caesar salad was large and greens were fresh. Croissants here are always delicious. The Cali poke bowl was very good.“

“1st time eating at Culver's but won't be my last! it was great! We were in the area doing free roof inspections for folks and took the opportunity to try it! - John with Fraser Roofing 864-542-7329“

“great food great staff great small business. this is what we need more of.“

“This is a popular place! Has a VERY wide selection of beer! We were there with quite a large group during happy hour, so that has to be taken into account. The service was as good as it could be with just one server for the group. She tried very hard, but the entire restaurant was very busy during the happy hour timeframe. She did have help with drinks, but the food took a very long time, and sometimes so did the drinks. Perhaps the kitchen was overwhelmed as well. In any case, the food was delicious. As I said, the restaurant was busy and was quite loud. Hearing the music was next to impossible. We do want to try it again when not with a huge group and see how it is. I believe a group of 2-4, sitting in a booth, would fare very well!“

“Our first visit to Pete's on Poinsett and it won't be the last. There are quite a few comments posted about a 20 minute for the food. Personally, I prefer fresh cooked, which this was, and don't mind waiting for it. The food was delicious and prices are reasonable. We will be going back to try other menu items because the options are many. Great family diner with good food and affordable prices.“

“I tried the Classic Philly cheese steak, with provolone cheese. Fries for a side. The cheese steak was tasty and had plenty of steak, peppers, and onions. I'd definitely order it again. There's plenty of seating as it's part of a food hall establishment. Along with a burger place and tap room. Outside seating available too.“

“Hands down the best wings in Greenville. We've been eating here for 3 years and it is consistently good each time. The sauces taste homemade and the wings are cooked to perfection. The raw fries are the perfect side and I love to dip them in their ranch dressing. Even the side salads are delicious. Wings on the Run is our family's Friday night take-out favorite.“

“Phenomenal food, and great service!! Gavin was our server, and provided excellent recommendations for libations, food, and local activities! The short ribs literally melted in my mouth, and the duck was so flavorful! I can’t wait to return, and I’m sad I have to wait until our next trip!!“

“Great food, Very Clean & Customer Service is Top Tier!“
