    Fried oysters
    Sarah H.

    The food was great! I went with a group of four and we all enjoyed our meals! We all shared the baked oysters and they were incredible. I highly recommend ordering these as we all could not stop saying how good they were. Two of us got the fish tacos and they were able to accommodate our request to have the fish blackened instead of fried! It had a generous portion of fish and a tasty mango salsa on top! It did need a bit of hot sauce for a tad more flavoring but once I added that it was perfect! One of us got the plate of fried oysters which he liked and the other got the shrimp and grits which he also enjoyed! The service was impeccable. Our waitress was kind, thorough, and we were left never needing anything as she was always on top of it! I had no idea how big the place was until we walked inside and kept walking and walking and walking until we got to the back (lol). There were a ton of people there too which is always a great sign. The two guys in our group enjoyed one of the stouts which they both loved.

    Tiny little po boy for $15, and wasn't even good. Ridiculous!

    SEVERELY overpriced, and less than mediocre food. They charge $9 per cocktail, and $18 for a double shot. It should be $9 EXTRA ($18 total) for a double! The fried calamari was so overcooked and crunchy, you could have broken a tooth! The ahi tuna was $17 for a tiny order (like 5 pcs). The oyster po boy was $15, and half the size of a normal sandwich. Not only that, but it was horrible! An "oyster house" should at least specialize in oysters, but they don't! Seriously, there are too many better places to have a good meal at more reasonable prices. This place is NOT it! Trash!

    Stopped in right at opening time during a quick trip to SC and was pleasantly surprised by the flavor and quality of the food. Everything was cooked just right--the scallops, the risotto and the veggies. Granted, there was only one other table there at the time, but everything came out quickly, and I was in and out and back on the road in a jiffy. Nice service, too!

    Great food!! Great service!! My wife and I went there based off our neighbors recommendation. Our server was actually one of the owners Katie and she was extremely attentive and accommodating to say the least. Our food was delicious at a great price. We told Katie that we will definitely come back.

    Nostalgia and ode to my hubby's grandpa's hometown, we checked in at this spot in old downtown Greer...yes, of all the places in Greenville where the hotel we were staying at, tagging along walk down memory lanes was n'étais en mauvais! Okay, let's get down to the point, this place was 80% full when we checked in. We were seated at the back row corner near the bar. Our waitress came over after a minute or two took our drinks. She brought our drinks then said she'll be right back. 3-5 minutes later she came back and took our food order. We could tell she's overwhelmed and a bit hurried, as she was also waiting on a few other tables. We ordered 2 appetizers: Calamari - good taste but a bit overdone Oysters blue point - we knew it would be small but they were sweet and tasty. Entrees: 1. Seafood cobb- came with 4 large pieces of salmon, 3 fried oysters and 3 sauteed shrimp, romaine, red onions, small pieces of tomatoes.for me, this dish looks like a seafood platter with very little salad underneath the proteins and no complaints here, just confused. 2. Shrimp & Grits- looked runny to me and my son said it was okay. 3. Oysters platter with fries- my hubby said he liked it but could tell he was disappointed, he ate only half or maybe he was just full... Will continue later I think the place has good offerings but it also has

    We normally go to Osaka for Hibachi, but they were closed from Christmas to New Years. We were out…read morerunning errands, and we decided to give Hibachi Cafe a try. When you walk in, there is a counter where you place your order. It isn't a server style setup. You pay for your items, and they are brought out to your table. I ordered the shrimp tempura roll, and my husband got the Rock n Roll to start. I usually get my sushi rolls made with soy paper, but they don't offer that here. Usually, the Shrimp Tempura Roll doesn't come with sauce on it. My husband is a Type 1 Diabetic so had that of been his roll we would've had to send it back with all that sugar. Not sure why this came with sauce. I always get mine on the side. We both really loved our rolls. We ended up taking our hibachi to go because we loved our rolls so much we finished them and were full. We both got Chicken and Shrimp Hibachi. The hibachi was okay. One of the things I've struggled with moving to SC, is how flavorless the fried rice is. The rice was lacking in flavor, and the rest was okay. I can't say I would go back for hibachi, but we really loved the rolls. The girl at the counter was super sweet.

    Although they serve large portions for carryout, the food is less than stellar. My last order, the…read morerice was bland and flavorless. The shrimp was overcooked and rubbery. The steak was okay, not great. Sadly, not many options for carryout hibachi in Greer or Taylors.
