jī-rōz

My favorite restaurant in Greenville! John has done an incredible job at Jiroz! We will be back soon

Our first time at ji-roz, went for Restaurant Week and well worth the experience. Owner personally touched the table several times and shared his family story. Great mediterranean cuisine -- succulent goat stew and lemony bronzini (served whole). Loved the freshness, from apps to desserts! Nice wine selection and good coffee, too. Attentive but unobtrusive wait staff. Open kitchen, but not high noise level.
We shall return!

ji-roz is amazing because they have an awesome menu selection, the food is outstanding and always consistent. The service is also amazing! Access to the restaurant is superb with ease of parking and getting in and out of the restaurant! Thank you Jim-roz!

Birthday celebration for my wife

Very disappointed with this visit. Took couple out to thank them for their business. Food was just ok and service was poor. Had to call wait person over to have refill for one of us but she never returned to service the rest of us. Only saw her to take order, one person refill and then check. Plus owner visited other tables but not ours. We normally sit at bar and get great service. Unfortunate since it was a special occasion.

We opted to visit Ji-Roz on a Friday night at the last minute and could not be happier we did! The food was fantastic, with appropriate portions and our server was attentive, friendly, and spaced the meal perfectly. Although not a large venue, the ambience was great for a date night with good lighting and low noise level so you could have conversation easily. We will definitely be back!

Octopus was served luke warm. One entree was forgotten about. Had to sit at community table even though we had a rez. One wait staff for the whole packed restaurant. Not in a hurry to go back.

Had a great dinner with my wife and a friend. We hadn't been there in a while and the latest menu is really top notch. We had lamb shank, lamb chops and salmon. They were all great. We also had the octopus appetizer which is the best in Greenville, very tender and chargrilled, Also tried the meatballs app, just ok. All in all, a great dinner and service. We will be back again.

There were 6 in our group that evening. The food was outstanding. Several had the gyros, and 1 had the salmon. We arrived at 5:30 and there was little activity, but by 7:00 it was a hopping place. Noise level was not bad but the energy was high. The other good thing about ji-roz is they have parking available. No matter what event it is a fun place to go anytime.

The salmon was excellent! I stopped in to ask for directions to a nearby business and the chef brought an umbrella and walked me to my destination! (It was between lunch and dinner crowds.) Because of that I felt I should at least give it a try. I was pleased to find my new favorite Greek restaurant in Greenville! If you're a fan of herbal teas, give their mountain tea a try!!

First time for dinner, small plates were a great choice

Ours was a once a month group that floats to a different bar/restaurant each month. This month we had seven in attendance. First, our waiter Kaleb was very good in service and explaining the menu options (and Greek names we couldn't pronounce). His timing was perfect, there when you needed him and not when you didn't. Everyone liked the variety of appetizers and we ordered all but two on the list I think. Octopus, feta balls and the wings were at the top of the list, but everything was great. The restaurant has a good drink, beer and wine menu. John runs a great place, and is now firmly on our "return visit" list. Highly recommended by this foodie!

This is our second visit. We were here during Greenville Restaurant Week and loved it. The menu grabbed our attention and we knew we had to come back! This is the place for great Greek food. Our waiter Kaleb was wonderful and clearly explained our questions about menu items. We had the zucchini fries with tzatziki sauce for our appetizer and it was sooo good! I had the wood fired double cut lamb chops with roasted beets! Cooked to perfection! My husband had the braised lamb pasta and loved it! We shared 2 wonderful desserts and finished with the Greek coffee. This is a star in the Greenville dining scene! We will definitely be back!

Reservation was honored and staff graciously stayed for our long conversation over dessert. Thanks

Excellent!

Staff was exceptionally accommodating to our needs. We ordered appetizers before our friends arrived and then stayed lingering over our dinners. We were never rushed even though we were the last to leave. Monday night service is very limited in Greenville. We will certainly return.
Lamb chops and Salmon entrees were very well prepared. Bread was very crusty and delicious.

Very good food, very good service!

Had the Swordfish it was one of the best meals I have had. Prepared with excellence!! Service was outstanding!!

Service was good the food was average at best. It’s not an authentic Greek restaurant. Gyros were plain and dry. I would not return to Jiroz.

We enjoyed our meal. We had the lamb & it was very flavorful. Service was good. We will definitely go back. Parking was also very convenient. Excellent venue for a pre-theater dinner.

Wow, our server Liz, is well versed with the menu and her suggestions were spot on! Kudus to Liz for her recco"s and exceptional service.

Overall family enjoyed skewers & fries. Tried lamb & pasta dish. Okay, a little salty, not a great value for price. Desserts were great.
Would return again.

Great Greek food in Greenville, with attentive service.

Excellent food and ambiance. Sat on patio with my dogs and staff were fabulous. They even brought a water bowl for my dogs to have water. Our waiter was fabulous and made excellent recommendations. Zucchini fries were great. And the gyro was in the top 3 best I've had. And the Kalama olives on the salad were delicious, like better than a usual Kalama olive.

Very different and very good menu. Great foodie place! Reasonable ale and wine list. Great value in a downtown restaurant.

Service was good and they kindly removed the cost of entree of grilled swordfish with balsamic vinegar because I ate less than half of the fish because it was dry and balsamic was also overpowering for flavor of swordfish. Wine was good. Every other meal I have had there in the past was delicious but I wouldn't order the swordfish prepared like that again.

We arrived 15 minutes early for our reservation. We waited 5 and were promptly seated. Our waiter was courteous and when he realized he had made one small mistake, even before I realized it, he corrected and made it up to us with dessert on him. The food was excellent. I highly recommend the pork gyro. We fully intend to return.

Started off a little shaky because our waiter apparently was overwhelmed with a table of 6. Guess he was trying to make a buck. Luckily, one of the other waiters realized we had been sitting there for 10 minutes and no one had even asked if we wanted something to drink. He (Will was his name) stepped up and treated us as if we were his only customers. From that point on, everything was smooth and the service was very fast. I tried some awesome Pulled Lamb Gyros and my wife tried the seared octopus. Yes, octopus! It was a first and worth it. Over the last few weeks, my wife and I have made it a point to eat at restaurants that are not "chains and to step away from the standard pizza, burgers...ect. We have had tried Lamb, Octopus, Escargo, and Antelope. All using your OpenTable app and say thanks for leading us to a new taste in food fare.

Something different not just Gyros although they are fantastic, very eclectic menu.

Fantastic! We will return!

Service and food were excellent as usual. The wood fired octopus is a favorite. Always a good time and we can count on the food being the best. Thanks John!

Really good, scratch made Greek food.

The food was outstanding. I had the pork chop and wow. Probably the best one I’ve ever had! The tzatziki sauce was great along with the house made bread. The mashed potatoes tasted like real potatoes - not instant. The greens were pretty gross. The service lacked greatly. Our waiter would do anything possible to not come to our table. He would literally ignore us when he walked by. It took a good 30 minutes for him to come back to get our dinner order after ordering drinks and appetizer. However the manager (I’m not sure who it was. He wasn’t dressed in the clothes the waiters wore) was amazing! He apologized multiple times for the evening and gave us a free dessert. He came by several times to make sure we were okay. We will go back again for the food. Hopefully the service will be better. It took an hour and 45 minutes (from when we sat down to when we left) to eat there at 8 pm on a Friday night.

Excellent. Love the octopus. Roasted Beets were a delightful taste treat.

We have been to this restaurant before and it was awesome and the service outstanding. This time the service was mediocre wouldn’t have gotten our salads if I didn’t remind the waitress. Me is were left in the table throughout the meal. The entrees were not hit because they sat in the window waiting for her to pick them up. We were celebrating a birthday and the server said we got a complimentary desert, but upon review of the bill we were charged for it. Very disappointed in the experience this time.

It was very good and reasonably priced. I have already recommended it to friends. Nice decor.

Great Greek food off slightly out of downtown commotion. Specials are always great. Fava and Saganaki as well.

Food is always very good. Service needs to be better. Beer list is improving.

Awesome food. We started out with appetizers. There was a significant variety, all were good but the smoked octopus was incredible. The service was great. We will go back. Highly recommended.

We love this place.
