My party of four had a wonderful experience at Soby’s last night. On a very crowded night, we were seated in a nice booth and were greeted by a waiter who answered all our questions about menu options and provided recommendations when asked. The entrees we chose were all well-received and shared across the table. Oh, I forgot to mention THE FOOD IS OUTSTANDING! At the end of the night we all agreed we would come back whenever we were in Greenville!

I should’ve taken pictures. The outdoor seating looked amazing. I wish we’d sat out there with the waterfall and the heat lamps. But inside was just as lovely. We’ve never been there before and the food was awesome. The waitress gave perfect recommendations. I can’t wait to go back and try some other things. My favorite was the eggplant appetizer. The steak was so tender and flavorful. I must try.
