    The food was outstanding! We loved sitting around the kitchen and watching. They were doing an amazing job as well. Sadly, our server wasn’t very attentive or knowledgeable. I saw the wonderful green beans being cooked in the wok in the kitchen. My entree said it came with Haricot Verts and I didn’t know what that was. I asked if I could substitute the green beans instead and he said that I couldn’t because it came with Haricot Verts. I looked them up online and they were green beans. If you’re looking for a place that isn’t downtown, has exceptional service and locally-sourced food that will knock your socks off, head to Stella’s Southern Bistro on Fairview Road in Simpsonville. The service is outstanding, they are very knowledgeable and attentive. I was able to get a non-alcoholic dirty martini there without issue and the food is unbelievable.

    We had our dog with us and so sat outside on the beautiful patio and just had the most peaceful experience. The service and drinks were great, THE FOOD was perfection. My husband and I split the sticky bun and then he had the fried green tomato blt and I had the smoked salmon avocado toast. Great job everyone!

    Always a terrific experience at Soby's. This trip was no different. Zachary was unmatched in his service and wit. The restaurant was swamped and yet the food came out quickly and the service was as good or better than ever. Well Done, Soby's!

    Great brunch experience. Fried chicken is excellent. Salmon and salads were very good. Favorite dish was the tostada with short rib and perfectly jammy eggs.
