Greenville native turned full-time foodie. I specialize in date-night spots, upscale Southern dining, and anywhere with a killer cocktail program. If the ambiance is right, I'm writing about it.

Soby's never misses. The shrimp and grits here is the dish that made me fall in love with Greenville dining. 20+ years in and still the gold standard. ✨
The Lazy Goat terrace on a warm evening is genuinely one of the best dining experiences in the entire Southeast. The mezze platter + a glass of rosé = perfection. 🌊
The cocktail program at Jianna is criminally underrated. The Negroni Sbagliato with their house amaro is a work of art. Stay for the pasta too — obviously. 🍸
Sarah's Top Picks
The benchmark for upscale Southern dining in Greenville since 1997.
Best terrace in the city — the Reedy River view is unmatched.
Exceptional Italian and the best cocktail program downtown.
Oysters on the half shell and a stunning waterfront setting.
The prime ribeye is worth every penny for a special occasion.
