Soby's - Greenville

Used open table to reserve a table for dinner on a Saturday night. Table was ready at our expected time. Our waiter was good. We had the braised short rib, shrimp and grits, fried green tomatoes, and banana creme pie. All of the food was amazing!!!!!! The braised short rib was so tender you could cut it with a fork! Would definitely recommend eating here. There is inside and outside seating available.

We enjoyed a nice evening at Soby’s with our wonderful server Jada. We started with friend green tomatoes and the pimento cheese appetizer. Both were delicious. My husband had shrimp and grits and added on a crab cake and I had the short ribs. Both were excellent. I do feel like the portion sizes should be a little larger or the prices should be a little lower to match the portion size. Other than that, we were very satisfied. I enjoyed a cocktail from their drink menu that was both strong and tasty.

Amazing! Service was incredible, food was out of this world. I tried the lady Diana cocktail. A fruity vodka drink that was smooth and tasty. Fried chicken was cooked perfectly and I loved the drizzled honey on it. Pimento Mac and cheese was the perfect side to meld the flavors together. Finished with the most enormous white chocolate banana cream pie. If you want a fabulous southern meal this is your place!

Great downtown Greenville restaurant. But I can’t give it 5 stars. We went for Sunday brunch. Holy delicious chicken biscuit. Also the cinnamon bun thingy. Such good food! The outdoor seating area is beautiful when the weather is nice. The server was great. There’s valet parking right there so it’s very convenient. The only complaint I have is not having the option to order a pitcher of mimosa. I thought that was a common thing. UPDATE: This time we went for dinner. The food was delicious. The server was great. The upstairs is very cool in concept and visually appealing, but it is incredibly stuffy up there and we smelled like restaurant the rest of the night. Also it took our food way longer than it should have. We were a party of 3 and a party of 6-8 that arrived after us were done and gone by the time we got our food. For these reasons, and the lack of mimosas in a pitcher for our table to share when we were there for brunch, I have to take away a star.

Best her crab soup ever! Shrimps and grottos are very beautiful and the swordfish special was a great recommendation. If this place will enjoy many more times in the future, I am sure!
