    We had the salmon and the quail. Both were excellent! I’ve come to expect this at Soby’s. Every dish, each component is excellent. We noticed the care that went into each dish and cocktail. This is, hands down, my favorite restaurant in Greenville!

    We ordered the fried green tomato Benedict along with a asparagus salad to share. The portions were just right for two people. And we enjoyed the Sobeys bloody Mary 301. Our server was excellent, and aside from the difficulty in parking downtown, we will be going more often

    Stefan was an exceptional server and made our anniversary special! He made our experience everything and worth it! I would go to any restaurant he works at My meal came out warm but not hot enough- like it had been sitting The sommelier took our wine away after opening it to decant it and brought it back in a water carafe. Then when we offered him a glass he said he already poured himself some and had some. That was super weird. There were several things that would have made my rating much lower but Stefan made our evening wonderful. He covered the deficiencies of the others beautifully

    One of our six dinners came out warm, not hot enough. Tasted good but could have been a bit hotter.

    Food and service was excellent. We were there Thursday night, prior to a show at the Peace Center. They were very busy with most diners needing to be finished in time to walk across the street for the show. It was very noisy inside because of the number of people trying to eat and leave at the same time.

    We will return because we usually enjoy Soby’s but my food was not good. The crab cakes tasted like a pile of mush along with the cheez whiz tasting corn ragout and puree. Tasted like cafeteria mush. Server never inquired how our food was and when he took our plates away said I’m glad you enjoyed your meal but my plate was almost completely full Sommelier was excellent with his wine recommendation. Fried green tomatoes were great

    We had a delicious meal for our first time at Soby’s! I had the shrimp and grits and my husband had the crab cakes. Both were wonderful! We will definitely return on our next trip to Greenville!
