50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Greenville

“Center of Yum Pelham Team - seriously tasty !“

“Outstanding dinner with family of 8. Food was excellent, served and prepared with a unique southern charm. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Service was excellent. Excellent, excellent, excellent and within an easy walk to the Peace Center Concert Hall. Our third time here since moving from up north. A 10 out of 10 from us. My only criticism was with the beautiful sign hung above the main entrance door. Our family was seated in the outdoor patio area, totally enclosed with comfortable heaters. My seat faced the sign - about 8 feet away. While I could read the "Southern Bistro" part of the sign, I could not read the name of the Bistro which was painted in blue with a blue trim painted around the sign. May I suggest an orange color for the name with the same orange trim? You'd then be able to read it from further away. This place is one of our favorites.“

“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 honestly can’t get enough! FRESH AND SO FLAVORFUL but not overpowering. Everything I have had is incredible but I do have to say that the pazole has to be my absolute favorite dish they serve. Wonderful atmosphere and staff, the cutest little place around!“

“Amazing vegan options and the owner treats you like family! Absolutely recommend to everyone 👍“

“The gelato, the baked treats, the coffee....everything is so delicious. The affogato with any flavor offered is my go-to.The owner and her staff always so helpful. 10 out 10 would recommend!“

“Just make sure you have alternate plans! They can close an hour or more before their posted hours. Depends on how busy they are. I have even called and asked certain places what time they would close and they said 7 or 7:30. Went at 6:30 and they were closed. Not busy enough!“

“Great service from Savannah, and great food as always!“

“My wife has raved about the Black Tiger milkshake forever. She used to frequent Coffee Underground in the 90s when she was at Furman. I stopped by this am to get her a milkshake since we were staying nearby. Neat place and a staple in downtown Gville for many years.“

“I was fortunate to have found Shoeless back in 2015 when my kid was doing karate next door. Although I live in Piedmont, Shoeless is and always will be my local (which as a British person is important). I bought my first brew kit here, celebrated a friend’s divorce here, have made wine here, and I can’t even tell you how many evenings and lunchtimes have been here. It’s welcoming, comfortable, and the owners and staff are very knowledgeable. It’s dog-friendly, and my kids have grown up here (don’t get me wrong, you’re not going to fight kids here). Brew-wise, I have tried a lot of breweries in the area over the years, and Shoeless remains my favourite. The selection is great, and although my partner and I have very different tastes, we’re both always happy. It’s just a good and welcoming place to be.“

“We loved the grocery and cafe both perfect after our afternoon walk 💕 #goldenmilk #avacadotoast #dillpotatosalad #spices“

“Wonderful addition to the Greenville restaurant scene!“

“Absolutely love this place! I’m in here way too often. The food is always great, but the service is where it’s really at. All the staff are fantastic, but Jenny goes above and beyond to take care of me every time I’m here.“

“Great restaurant! Hosted my daughter’s birthday here, she loves the record store inside! Our server was wonderful with our large party size! Food is delicious every time we visit!“

“Loving this. Oh my god. I came in on a whim from the vet clinic I work at I didn’t pack enough. Oh. My. God. I’m so happy. Fries? Thick and soft and crunchy. Mac n cheese? Creamy and cheesy like heaven. SANDWICH?! Literal tears. I’m gonna have enough meat for another sandwich. I gotta come back when I’m back for another clinic I need that sauce for at home“

“We attended the under the sea breakfast event with Ariel and Prince Eric and it was phenomenal! The staff at Eggs up grill and the characters were so friendly and fun to interact with. The food was delicious! The manager was very present and active in the dining room. Overall a great dining experience! We drove from Boiling Springs specifically for this experience and would make the trip again!“

“I love everything about The Commons!!! Great restaurants, Methodical Coffee, Pangea Brewing and much more. Ride the Swamp Rabbit trail, walk through Unity Park, park your bike at one of the many bike racks and enjoy great food, great coffee and great beer. I highly recommend!“

“We went for coffee today for my daughter’s birthday and they surprised her with a cheesecake and announced her birthday over the speaker. So sweet! And when we got the wrong size coffee they immediately made a new one and let us keep the original one in the meantime. And everything was amazing!“

“Absolutely best service and amazing food. The drinks are crazy good“

“I moved into The McClaren apts. (awesome place) about 14 months ago and discovered Otto Izakaya early on. Only 2 blocks away for me. Otto is, and has been, my go to place, especially when friends, family or business friends are visiting. Not a sole I have introduced has ever had anything but praises for the experience. If we are a small group, I always encourage dining at the bar. I have no idea who will read this, but people buy from people; and people they enjoy interacting with. I would be totally remiss if I didn't specifically mention bar manager Matt and his team behind the bar. If Matt has ever met a stranger, I missed it, as he has the personality to balance the engagement with customers, while still providing excellent customer service. Also, everything I've tried off the menu is high-grade and fresh! That's a must for me. I'd be slack if I didn't mention the awesome hard working sushi chefs, who are always open to preparing a creation to suit YOUR palate and preferences. As to other regular customers, and just my observation, but like me, they appear to have found a home away from home; a place to be comfortable, chill and let the time spent make a bad day better. I almost never take the time to give a review and especially a compliment; as I sometimes look for the negatives, as it is always so easy to criticize. So, as a native Greenvillian and business (person); and someone who believes and enjoys a five ***** experience that is reasonably priced, give Otto Izakaya a try. Whether you live in the area, or are simply visiting, when you leave you will already be thinking about when you can do this again! If you enjoy an adult beverage, be sure and stop by the bar and ask for Matt, as this master mixologist will want to know exactly what you're looking for. If you read this review and haven't stopped by, you're in for an experience catered to the way you would most enjoy it. And ladies, as I have a daughter in college, so please know whether by yourself, or in a group, you're in a safe place without being hassled and you don't have to look over shoulder (unless there is a stud sitting behind you), because Matt and the supporting staff will have your back so you can relax and enjoy. If you have a chance to meet the owner, please do, as his passion and dedication for excellence in all aspects of the business is instantly captivating. Sorry for the length of this, I was on a roll! No "pun" intended! Give it a try real soon! M.P. 😎“

“Order the Chai Latte. Added a pack of Stevia...may not have needed it, but it certainly didn't hurt. I loved it. The service was great and plenty of places to sit.

Parking was pretty easy given it was a Monday at 1pm. Only street parallel parking close by.“

“Wonderful food and atmosphere. The best ingredients always. Great wine and spirits“

“Amazing service. Love the food!!“

“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!“

“I meet clients there a lot and it’s always been a great experience!“

“Small brewery tucked into the corner of a courtyard. Good vibes. I tried 4 beers but there were many more to try. I got a spread of styles and I thought everything was fine except the stout which I actually wasn’t a huge fan of. Parking not too bad. I don’t believe food is offered but there’s a BBQ joint right next door.

Ultimately, I would likely come back to try some more next time I’m in town“

“Dope spot!!!!matt and dylan were great hosts!!!!!“

“A great place .All the beers were very good and great staff.“

“Great brews, indoor/outdoor seating, live music and parking (huge plus!!).“

“Our server Emilio was great. Very friendly and informative. It was our first time visiting so he explained everything very well. The food was amazing. From the empanada to the Ropa vieja so well done and flavorful. Very impressed and will definitely be back.“

“Fantastic coffee! Had a hazelnut coconut latte. It was extra hot just like I like it, and there was not too much syrup! I don’t like overly sweet coffee, this was just right! My husband had an iced white mocha, it was also excellent!“

“Absolutely loved this new spot! If you’re craving genuine Indian cuisine that feels both comforting and elevated, this place is definitely worth a visit. You can really taste the authenticity in every bite, whether it’s the creamy curries, freshly baked breads, or the perfectly balanced chutneys. Can’t wait to go back and try more!“

“Always an amazing time at this brewery. Great beer, amazing pizza (the forager is my go to), and friendly staff.“

“We came in tonight an hour or less before closing and was greeted with great customer service and looks of information on what to try. My friend and I got a hand full of treats to split and the desserts were so delicious and fresh! Such a great spot!“

“Food was great. Service was subpar. I’m not sure if they are under staffed, but we called a to-go order and was told an hour wait. Seemed reasonable for a Sunday afternoon. Get there and my order “got lost”. Fast forward 30 minutes and I watched 4 tables have to get up and find their server to get their check. Servers seem busy, just not attending to the customers. Will probably stick to my usual pizza joints.“
