Coral Greenville

We arrived and were pleasantly surprised by the valet service - much appreciated since downtown parking can be tricky. We were greeted and seated promptly. The bar side of the restaurant has plenty of tables but is noticeably louder; we were seated on the opposite side, which offered a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere. The ambiance is elevated but cozy, and the lighting was perfect: dim enough for an intimate feel, yet the table was illuminated so you could easily read the menu. Service was impeccable. Bryce, our server, was truly exceptional: personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive. A 10/10 experience. We had a good time! To start, we ordered the bread with ocean butter (so delicious) and split the mixed green salad, which made for the perfect fall starter. We ate every bite. For entrées, our table enjoyed the halibut, lamb chops, and sea bass—each dish was beautifully prepared with great flavor and texture. We ended our meal with one of the best desserts we’ve ever had: the sticky toffee pudding. There are no words to describe how incredible it was. We’ll definitely be back to try more! One of the best places in Greenville.

One of Greenvilles gems. Visited from Miami and was blown away by the seafood. From the oysters, to the deliciously creative take on a Cesar salad and amazing octopus carpaccio the apps were on point. Then the mains came and the meal just got better. Highly recommend!

TL;DR: This place is a once-and-done for us. Coral has all of the makings of a five-star dining experience if it weren't for that pesky NIGHT CLUB VIBE (complete with a noise-level to match) on a Saturday night. Wife and I reserved a table here for Saturday, February 7th at 8PM. Service was slow--a little relaxed you might say--but the team was clearly cohesive, it was indeed busy. The kind of busy, in fact, that while we had a reservation, when we walked in we weren't entirely sure they would to honor it, but were sat immediately. Our waiter, Greg, was just okay. This is the guy who chiefly was our waiter, but he was so busy with the neighboring party of 6 or 8, we felt like somewhat of a bother to him. Nonetheless, they accommodated every whim of our meal (including splitting the wedge salad in half, as ridiculous as that sounded). We also enjoyed the tuna and Mac/cheese with lobster (my 2nd time having lobster that day--because it was after all, my birthday). Everything we ate was stunning in appearance, and tasted impeccably. We ordered a Reese's-inspired dessert that we shared. After we took and paid the bill, our waiter asked us what was the reason for our visit, and we obliged, "my birthday". Honestly I was a little surprised that a detail like this was overlooked, considering it was mentioned in my Resy request. He wished me a happy birthday. As we put on our coats to leave, he rushed over with 2 mini brownie bites, with "Happy Birthday" written in chocolate. Cute, but we were stuffed and leaving! For $177, nah. Couple all of this with the crowd at the bar, and the crowd standing outside waiting to get in (EVERYONE SCREAMING) ... we ding'd your a star.

My wife and I had another great experience at Coral. The Mahi mahi burger and the fish & chips were amazing. Nothing greasy or cheap about it. Just high-quality fish that we loved. Duck fat fries amazing! And the best thing in the house, sticky toffee pudding for dessert. Lindsay and Sonny are great servers and the whole staff is trained to connect with customers which demonstrates great management. Thanks for an excellent evening!

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Greenville. The food is creative yet perfectly balanced and every dish tastes amazing. The service is next level: warm, attentive, and genuine. No surprise this place is always packed with people. You should definitely give it a try!

Coral is truly a gem of a restaurant and gets it right in all areas, especially the most important ones, which are food quality, service, and atmosphere. It’s an upscale seafood restaurant, located on Main Street in downtown Greenville, with a relaxed feel making it the perfect setting whether you’re on a date night or entertaining friends. The menu is outstanding, fresh seafood, steaks, creative pairings, and dishes that are prepared with both skill and care. Every plate has layers of flavor that make it clear this kitchen knows what it’s doing. And don’t skip dessert, all of them are excellent and the perfect finish to the meal. What really sets Coral apart, though, is the service. The staff is attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely care about your dining experience. It’s the kind of service that makes a great meal even better. Sonny and Brice are two servers that really stand out, but all of them do a fantastic job. The owner is great too and is on top of things to make sure you have a top notch experience. They have free, front row valet parking (just tip the valet), which makes it super easy to get in and out of the restaurant. If you’re looking for a place in Greenville that consistently delivers on all fronts, Coral should be at the top of your list!

Food was great and especially the toffee desert. The best was Jasmin, who was our waitress. She made this place a 5 star for us. The food was really good but expensive. The restaurant was really nice and I guess good restaurants are going to be over $100 a person.

This might have been the best restaurant experience I’ve had! I was immediately greeted by the hostess with a big smile. Our waiter was friendly and experienced. The happy culture of the staff was definitely reflected in the service and food. We were so happy with everything and absolutely blown away by dessert!
