   The steak was soft and great temperature, the new building is beautiful and in a great location. I love the outdoor seating as well. Will be back

   Terrible steak over cooked, then raw, then no dinner. The manager offered a free dessert. Terrible experience

   Brian G, the Server, is impressively talented in customer service. He made dining at Larkin's the perfect outing. The food was delicious. We highly recommend the Dinner Rolls, the Calamari, an exceptional presentation with pepper, scallions, and parmesan cheese, the Wild Mushroom Ravioli, and the Banana Fosters Bread pudding. The Smoke & Mirrors cocktail and the Tinazzi "Dugal" Cab were excellent. Larkin's does dining well.

   Larkin’s is a lovely restaurant in an extremely convenient location, and are very dog friendly in the outdoor seats. They seemed to be a little short staffed during lunch on Memorial Day as the service was a little on the slow side, other than that good service. The food was average to me - my chopped salad and dressing didn’t have a ton of flavor and the grilled chicken was extremely dry. Husband enjoyed his steak frites, so it balances out to average. Would return but would definitely order something else next time.

   Our server, Teri, was fantastic! She was very down to earth and helpful with food and wine selection. Our food took way too long to come out. A little disappointed that they didn’t seem more apologetic.

   We arrived early to enjoy a cocktail at the bar which turned out to be a mistake - understaffed at the bar so service was very slow and drinks were less than acceptable as a result. To management’s CR diet they acknowledged the issues and waived our drink cost (I did not drink mine as unacceptable). We were seated on time and the rest of the night was wonderful, matching reviews I had read before booking. The tuna poke and oysters on the half shell were excellent, fresh and flavorful. My ribeye was cooked perfectly and seasoned extremely well - accompanying creamed spinach was good but not great. The seared salmon was also excellent with great accompanying vegetables. We had an excellent bottle of wine with the dinner, but disappointed that I poured every glass after the first. Otherwise, Anne provided excellent service. Would finitely go back after the slow start as the management team was very aware and handled well.

   We really loved the feeling of Larkins by the River. Unique Setting , dark and intimate. The new location is modern and noisy and sterile. With reservations, they seated us facing the bathrooms so we watched everyone coming out of the bathroom. My crab soup was lukewarm. My filet was burnt and the sides were cold. This was our third year in a row celebrating our anniversary. We will not be back next year.

   We were excited to try the new Larkin's this past Sunday. First off it took 30 minutes to receive our drink (party of 3) order and they were not what we ordered. My daughter ordered the Mahi Mahi special and the fish was very dry. My wife ordered the Shrimp and Grits. There was entirely too much gravy over the top. Half would have been better on the side. I ordered the short ribs and they were fine. That atmosphere is much (colder ) than they previous spot and we felt we were eating in a hallway. With so many fine choices in Greenville we probably won't be back

    The staff just seemed in shambles, honestly wasn’t even that busy it just seemed like chaos. My fiancé had to ask if we could order drinks 30 mins into the meal 10 mins AFTER we had already ordered our dinner. We had no silverware when we received our food. The food was undercooked, my loaded baked potato 20min into the meal still had cold, unmelted butter and cheese still sitting on the top. Steak was supposed to be medium but had purple meat (didn’t even finish it). Just all in all terrible experience, maybe we just caught a bad night though

    Absolutely amazing! My husband and I were given complimentary champagne for our anniversary, and our server was fantastic. We both agree the calamari was the best we have ever had, I am almost sad I ordered it because I won't have calamari that delicious for a long time. Entrees were also amazing. We will be recommending this place to anyone visiting Greenville!

    The food preparation took entirely too long. I arrived at 6:20pm and received my meal after 8pm. The waiter was friendly and polite. However, the service was extremely slow. The noise level was high in the location where i was seated.

    First time in since they moved. The best crab cake I have had in years. A perfectly cooked filet for my wife. The most outstanding mahi mahi I have ever eaten. New dining area was bright and quiet. We had a great server named Paula. A little sticker shock when the bill came but that’s the way it is in downtown Greenville now.

    It was our first time dining in this location. I will preface my comment by stating that we could have spoken to the server about our steaks (two filets and a NY Strip) being undercooked but we had eaten some and did not. One filet was requested to be cooked medium well, one filet medium and the strip medium. All three steaks were undercooked. The atmosphere is definitely not the same but such is change. The service was outstanding. Larkins has always been our favorite but not sure we will return.

    They forgot drinks. They forgot an appetizer twice, then brought it after we had been served our entrees. They forgot one of the dessert plates. It wasn’t very busy. The food was good. Drinks were good. Service needs some work.

    Our server was great, the food was decent, but the booths we were in was very odd, especially for two people. It felt like an office space more so than a restaurant. It was loud and with the large booth sometimes made it hard to hear.

    Food was average at best. Caesar salad was very marginal. Oyster appetizer was cold. Most importantly, the waiter simply did not want to be there “I need a change”. And especially disliked Mothers Day. Very disappointing, especially with a client.

    With a wide open restaurant the hostess sat us next to the kitchen. We asked to be moved to any of several open tables. She wouldn’t move us and assured us those tables were being held for other reservations. Of course, when ewe finished our brunch most of those tables were still open. She could have easily moved us to a better table and it wouldn’t have affected anything on her list. Moreover, someone cracked up the music in our section with the speakers directly above us next to the noisy kitchen area. Terrible audience, but the food was good and that’s typically the only thing I care about. The rest of these issues could’ve easily been addressed and avoided by a hostess with an accommodative perspective.

    This restaurant is fun, cool and modern. But, the food is so overpriced!! The Chilean Sea Bass was $58, and although cooked perfectly and delicious, the presentation and the sides did not warrant that price point. We also ordered the 3 deviled egg appetizer (1 1/2 of one egg) for $18. Our server was nice, but her service did not match the prices and atmosphere. We were also expecting a white table cloth restaurant and were informed that they moved and changed all that 6 months ago.

    Reservation on May 11, 2023. After having raved about this restaurant to our friends, our meals were an embarrassment. Mine in particular. I ordered a 7oz filet and a Cesare salad. When my dinner arrived, my filet was on a HUGE dinner place alone like a hockey puck. Not even a sprig of parsley! To top it off it was tasteless. For the price of our meal, it could have had a more appealing presentation. The salad was not much better as far as taste goes. We were in town for the Artisphere in Greenville, SC. If we should return next year we would never repeat this experience again.

    The first part of our time there was good. Friendly server, got drinks and appetizers promptly and were good. Then there was a long period of time with no sighting of server. When we finally received our food some of it was lukewarm. There was no explanation or apology given. For the price I expected better service/food.

    Very expensive for what you get. Smash burger with fries and an ice tea was $25! Burger was not very good. Grill Marks burgers are much better for less money..just minus the fancy decor. Good service, nice decor Many other dining options in walking distance for a lot less money. One of my other dining partners said he’d been to Larkin’s for dinner. He thought the food was ok. Not worth coming back for.
