Best Southern American Restaurants in Greenville

We celebrated our 46th anniversary tonight at Soby’s and the entire evening wax exceptionally wonderful. We both had the special fried flounder which was the best I have ever had. The truffle Mac-n-cheese is so it f this world and the Banana Cream pie was so tasty and light! Simply a perfect dinner.

Came for my wife's birthday on Saturday and it was fantastic. Server was the upmost respectable and attentive. Would give it 10 Stars if possible. love the family atmosphere and booth/table style seating.

This was unexpectedly, an absolutely fabulous evening. From the greeting to the seating to the serving, to the dining, everything went smoothly. Alexis, our server was somebody I would like to know anytime! She is an achiever, personable, and highly professional… as well as interested in us and who we were.! And then the food…all three of us had outstanding results with the choices we had taken from a quite extensive menu. Everything was beautifully prepared and served, but there were really creative, unexpected results from the chef to make these choices exceptional. We were all so surprised and grateful. Astute Alexis, our delightful server picked up on this and invited the young chef, John to come out to visit with us. Having been experienced myself and well traveled with wonderful dining opportunities, I believe that if he does not lose this optimism and willingness to take chances on his creative but knowledgeable skills,he is going to be very well-known someday.I almost asked for an autograph! He was so personable he persuaded us to have a dessert we hadn’t planned on, and it was way beyond anything we had dreamed of. We were so thankful that we had chosen this place to celebrate the birthday of one of us. Bravo.

This place never disappoints. If you’re looking for southern comfort food done right this is the place. We visit every time we come to Greenville. The sassafras chicken is one of our favorites. Shrimp and grits, salmon, steaks are all very good. Side dish choices are perfect accompaniments. The service and hospitality are spot on. Great daily specials. Very welcoming place.

This was our first visit. We were early and we're accommodated. Becca was very knowledgeable and answered every question. Food was fantastic. We had the lamb and short rib. The portions were large.
