- DDianeChicago / Illinois •12 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe loved Indaco! Service was wonderful, the staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere pleasing. When we walked in one of the staff was walking in ahead of us. He stopped, saw us, held the door and assured us someone would be with us in a moment. We had the meatball appetizer which tastes like a great-grandma’s homemade recipe (I’m Italian), the sauce is fabulous! We also had the Margherita Pizza-perfetto! Perfect char, perfect chew, perfect sauce. Our new Greenville favorite pizza!More infoIndaco - GreenvillePrice: Expensive• Italian• Greenville•4.6
- TTeresaVIPSouth Carolina •53 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoMy constant go to for feeling special starting with reservation special requests to being greeted and treated by new and seasoned Soby’s family members! Always a treat to start with brussel sprouts and country ham and really enjoyed the tastes and presentation of the Wildly Mushroom appetizer (loved the anchovy flavor accent)! The beet and burrata salad was spot on! Enjoyed the new additions of salmon and bison osso bucco and great mix of flavors. Shout out to Amelia for TLC in spacing our order perfectly and great recommendations . Thanks to Kate for the wine and food recommendations. And welcome to Chuck and thanks for the memories to Soup! Left for the show feeling special and happy! Thanks, Soby’s!More infoSoby'sPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Greenville•4.8
- KKarenNorthwest Florida •10 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoI had the SC swordfish on the special menu and it was excellent. Done perfectly and had alot of flavor, even without the sauce. My husband had the Pork Osso Bucco which he thought was also very good, but would have liked some more sauce on the pork. Most of it was on the polenta. Our waiter was very good and we would come back again.More infoThe Lazy GoatPrice: Moderate• Mediterranean• Greenville•4.7
