A Fork in the Road to Great Eats

Delight in Greenville's flavorful dining scene, where you'll find everything from restaurants offering budget-friendly bites to exquisite fine dining experiences. Almost everywhere you raise a fork, you’ll find menus peppered with delectable Southern treats with a twist, like burgers smothered in pimento cheese (the caviar of the South), sweet potato biscuits, or boiled peanut hummus. With more than 200 restaurants downtown and more than 1,000 throughout the County, you’ll discover diverse cuisines ranging from traditional to downright eclectic, where modern dishes can be served in a historical mill to seasonal fare sourced from local farms. Be sure to take in the scenery while dining next to the Reedy River or, better yet, its namesake waterfalls. Whatever you fancy, there’s a restaurant to appease any taste bud. From Southern cuisine and steakhouses to BBQ, vegetarian, and farm-to-table, all you need to do is pull up a plate.
