Larkin's

We went for our anniversary and received incredible service and food! Phil was our waiter and was awesome! Husband had Filet and it was cooked perfectly. I had the Chilean sea bass and Phil recommended the risotto with it and it was perfect! The BLT salad was a large portion and tasted great. Fantastic experience from start to finish! Thanks Phil for making our night so incredibly special!

Found this great restaurant in Greenville. Parking wasn't as easy to figure out. (Plan ahead). But once we got there, Friday, Dec 26th, for a late lunch, and found parking, it was smooth sailing. Our server LeighAnna, (sp?) was charming, articulate on menu choices, and on time with refreshing drinks and appetizers. We passed one table where there was a fresh salad overflowing with great ingredients. I almost ordered salad. The beer selections were good, my drink was well poured, the glass was cold (not straight out of the dishwasher) and we were pleased right away. We started with a crab cake appetizer. It was well prepared, crispy sizzled on the outside and tender in the middle. The lemony beurre blanc made my tongue dance. At $26 for 1 crab cake, it better be good. Then he ordered a golden brown and delicious Reuben off the grill. Mouthwatering. I had the crispy ahi tuna wonton nachos with guacamole crema, sweet soy dressing, and cilantro micro greens. (Not your typical chopped cilantro.) The ahi tuna was generously served. The atmosphere was cosmopolitan chic, the silverware was clean and even a little sparkly, and this was overall a great experience. The outdoor dining area was pet friendly during the warmer days. Great atmosphere, great service, pretty amazing menu, and overall a great choice.

I stopped in for a nightcap after having dinner elsewhere and sat at the bar. Service was decent and the venue is pretty modern and appealing. They have a cocktail menu called and it listed a whiskey-based drink called the Sunset Rider, which sounded amazing, but I’m not as much into whiskey as I am vodka, so I chose the Espresso Martini instead. The Espresso Martini was pretty good! Overall, it was a nice visit… I’d return and maybe try more.

So my wife and I used to go to the location at the river a lot before they moved so it’s been a while since the new location was built so we figured we’d try it out for my wife’s birthday. I made 7 pm reservation they seated us on the roadside balcony that was heated and as it was getting later on a fall evening they shut the close down windows so you had the best of both worlds heated area with a beautiful view. Now here’s where I can’t brag enough, we had the absolute greatest server of all time in Doug Blumenthal. This guy I can’t brag enough on he was absolutely fantastic and whether you’re a walk-in or making a reservation ask for Doug, he even gave us his card with his number so we could just make all of our preparations and reservations through him. Doug really made our night absolutely fantastic and we couldn’t be more thankful to him for it. The food was absolutely divine and their Sunset Rider cocktail was the best over ever had. If you’re in the area go check out Larkins and MAKE SURE you ask for Doug Blumenthal he’s the best in the business, you will not be disappointed!!!!

Great happy hour. We enjoyed the deviled eggs, shrimp cocktail, and steak frites with parm fries. The steakhouse sliders had great meat, but the sauce and extras on the sliders were too subtle. House old fashioned was watery and dull. House margarita was much better.

Asian Beef Bowl!!!! I’m a foodie and have lots of amazing suggestions to try in downtown Greenville but this one is in the top 3 for sure! The flavor is unbeatable…edamame, crispy onion, radish give it a great crunch, the beef is cooked to perfection, the kimchi aioli should but on everything…it’s honestly the perfect balance and explosion of flavors. They also have a great wine list and the staff are all welcoming, knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating.

A group of us reserved spots at the Monday Happy Hour called Caftan and Coktails. A server greeted us at the entrance with a flute of bubbly. We we told to head to the covered balcony after having our names checked off the list of reservations. A bar with a dedicated bartender was set up on the balcony for us. For the $30 admission price we each received two cocktails, so I tried the Tom Collins which was yummy. The food offered was very good. We each received a plate with two jumbo shrimp and cocktail sauce, half of a devilled egg with bacon, some delicious sushi grade tuna bites and guacamole with two crusty toast points. The owner took pictures for our group, and the co-owner circulated along with staff, all of whom were helpful and prompt in meeting our needs. The scene was bright and charming, with everyone decked out in flowing caftans and wild earrings. A great ladies happy hour with friends on a rainy Monday was a great way to begin the week. Well done and bravo, Larkins! My only suggestion to improve the event would be to add a sweet something after the main food offering, maybe petit fours, some chocolate or cookies!

We visit Greenville often and love trying new restaurants. This was such a disappointment. Out of all of the restaurants we have gone to, this was our least favorite. We were told it was fine dining, and a local favorite. We had early reservations, but every table was basically empty in the entire restaurant. Our server only had two tables and we barely saw him. When we asked for bread he said he just gave his last fresh batch to the other table. The food was mediocre at best. If you are looking for a great steak house, this is not your choice. Our server did offer us a complimentary dessert and said sorry your dinner didn’t work out. Furthermore, after our dinner, I tried to call the restaurant to talk to a manager, and no one would ever pick up the phone. Again, very disappointed and will not be going back.

Absolutely delicious meal, and a great evening being taken care of our "host" Phil! The lump crabcake appetizer was outstanding, and that's coming from a couple that lived in Baltimore for 15 years, Phil promised we would not be disappointed and we were not. For entrées, we had a perfectly cooked fillet mignon and the scallops on risotto (as a substitute for the okra at Phil's suggestion) was absolutely delicious. For dessert, we tried the Tres Leches cake , which was some of the best we've ever had, unlike many that are soaking wet, this was a delightfully light cake, and a giant piece easy to share. We will absolutely be returning the next time we are in town!

I came by here for the chocolate cake after having dinner somewhere else and was immediately reminded of why I hadn't been here in so long. The service at the bar is atrocious. I sat down and waited and waited (they were not busy) and finally someone gave me a menu and then he disappeared for quite a while. There was a young lady behind the bar who finally came and took my simple order. She brought me my espresso and then my dessert arrived. I asked her for silverware and she pointed at the coffee spoon and said 'you mean more than that?'' I said yes I'd like an actual fork please. The guy across from me overheard this and told me he had a similar experience months ago and that the service is always terrible. The bar team is more invested in cleaning up than actually checking on the five people sitting at the bar. And not very friendly. This happened last time I was here a year ago. Just awful.

Went here for an anniversary dinner celebration! Our waiter was so kind and attentive. I ordered the mushroom ravioli and he told me to add blackened chicken, totally worth it! He seemed very knowledgeable of the menu and even recommended drinks for us! We shared the she crab soup. Then my boyfriend got the steak! Mashed potatoes were okay but the broccoli was good!! Would totally go again. The restaurant wasn't very romantic or decorated very nicely but the food was worth it!

Nice place with good she crab soup and sea bass but that was it. Atmosphere was nice and service was attentive.

Wondering what to do M-F from 4-6? Well wonder no more - you're going to Larkin's to enjoy the best happy hour deals. $5 martinis with a $12 plate of steak frites? Say no more. Service at the bar is touch and go with some being more attentive than others. The outside is lovely with fire pits, but the bar really is my favorite spot.

It was ok small portions but the service was really good. Ambiance was nice as well. The food was just ok

Service was good to okay. 22% tip. Crab cake was good but not as good as the one at Fall for Greenville... a bit too much lemon in the sauce. She crab soup was good but again not as good as Fall For Greenville sample. Mine had lumps of corn starch in it. Needed to be blended better. We had the salmon and spouse had halibut.. We didn't expect it to be served in a bowl all items on top of one another. Chef suggested it be cooked "medium ".. actually was raw in the middle. My husband's halibut was served over a "soupy" concoction that was just a messy looking unappealing tomato based zucchini whatever... I didn't even want to try it. His halibut was RAW. Transplant individuals CANNOT eat raw meat. On top of the raw halibut was a "salad" that tasted like liquorice.. His meal was unacceptable. Chef Ramsey would have spit it out and yelled at everyone. We have no need to ever return. They offered half off his meal or a free dessert. We declined. Other folks' meals looked a bit more appealing.

Nice location with deceptively large number of seating. I had a large group and we had plenty of room in the terrace area which can get loud. The service was good and the food was fine although the portions are small. Sea bass was tasty although the steaks were apparently dry.

Used to love this spot... Happy hour is less welcoming than in the past. Drinks ok but not as nicely prepared. Oysters not the quality I was used to and not prepared as clean and cold. Bar staff for such a higher end restaurant needs to clean up and be more professional,,, (compare to BrickTops which is top shelf professional. Attire, service, attention.) Beat up black T-shirts and old jeans are not what this beautiful spot deserves. Unfortunately Larkins will be one of our standard stops any longer. I think this could be a reflection of new ownership and management. Not a change for the better. Other options are just much better.

Wouldn't recommend this place, let me break it up: We went for happy hour on a very warm day, since we were bringing our dog, they offered us a table on the patio. It was sunny and 83 degrees outside, they had some umbrellas next to the tables but the one they offered us was still sunny so when we asked for a different table with more shade, our host simply left us he had a terrible attitude. There was a discrepancy between what the menu said and what we got charged for. Menu stated that during happy hour the oysters are $1, but they were actually $2. We were charged $6 for martinis that should have been $5, and the menu items were meant to be half price, but they were charged full price for a couple of them. Although I don't think pricing is excessive, you shouldn't say one thing on your menu and charge something else entirely different. The food was ok--nothing particularly noteworthy. The steak frites were the best so far; the meat was juicy, soft, and tasty. The calamari was good too, but there was a hair on them.

Great food, great service, excellent menu variety and great location. The most impressive thing about Larkin's was the menu selections. Very well curated with refreshing twists on some classics as well as new additions such as the shrimp burger. The restaurant was clean and modern. Our waiter was awesome and even sung happy birthday (an outstanding singer) and he definitely made the day special. The food was good and priced as you would expect an upscale restaurant to be priced. The adult beverages were made well with a good stock of high end pours and selections.

Delicious!!!! Understatement!!! The food was above my expectations. I truly enjoyed the deviled eggs. I will be going back for some more. Tremendous and Excellent service!! Very efficient and prompt. Service was handled with a smile. Now the ambiance is very quiet and relaxing. Me and my friends enjoyed the terrace. Big enough for a quiet meeting up to a huge party reception. They also have a bigger venue that is even bigger and prettier for those family reunions, company parties, or for anything you can use the venue to have. Great space. Beautiful atmosphere. Gorgeous decorations or catering by Larkin if needed. If needed, I would check them out. Love them and will use again.

The ew location is definitely not as romantic as their former site along the falls. However, the contemporary layout is still gorgeous. Stays busy so be syre you make reservations.

The food was absolutely amazing. We had a party of 14..... Doug, our waiter went over and beyond. We had many different items off the menu and I can honestly say, they take pride in their food and presentation. We're from California and will definitely make it a point to come back next time we're here in South Carolina.

We stopped over to Larkins after a show at Peace Center. Thought we might get dessert BUT we were enticed by the Oysters Rockefeller and truffle fries - why not have a late night snack! Oh and then of course we needed a bottle of wine. Delicious post show snacks topped off with yummy key lime pie and tres leche cake - YUM!!! Cool ambiance and the staff were super attentive. Thank you!

Do not go for restaurant week! First, the restaurant week website said that Larkins had steak as part of their 3 for $55, when we got to the restaurant we found out that it was taken off, and the steak was the main reason we chose this place. Then we did the math and found that if we were to order our 3 choices á la carte, the deal would only save us $1... that's if the portions were the same but they weren't. My friend ordered the wings off the menu while I got them through the restaurant week choices and she had more wings than I did, making their "deal" not a deal at all. The food was mediocre, only redeeming qualities is that the drinks were good and our server was sweet.

A Father's Day Fiasco at Larkin's - A Meal Best Forgotten What was supposed to be a celebratory Father's Day brunch turned into a two-hour culinary trainwreck, thanks to the bafflingly bad service and dismal food at Larkin's (32 E Broad St, Greenville, SC). We arrived full of excitement but left full of regret. From the moment we walked in at 11:15 a.m., the experience was a slow descent into disaster. It took two full hours for my parents to get through a meal that was barely edible and certainly not enjoyable. No wonder the waiter never told us his name. The waiter seemed lost in a fog of confusion. When I ordered shrimp and grits (clearly listed on the brunch menu), he confidently told me it was a dinner item. I had to show him where it was printed under 'Brunch', only to be met with a blank stare and a half-hearted excuse. Things only went downhill from there. My father's simple request for steak, mashed potatoes, and vegetables turned into a tragic comedy of errors. First, after putting in our orders, the waiter came back about thirty minutes later and said there were "no potatoes of any kind, except fries". LOL ... fine. My dad settled for steak and vegetables. Another twenty minutes later, our server returned to let us know there were no vegetables either. What arrived instead (after patiently waiting over an hour) was huge plate with a burnt hunk of meat and a side of nothing! This is what Larkins served my wonderful dad for Father's Day! His plate was a dry and joyless as our experience turned out to be. And my mother's meal? A beet salad with salmon that looked like it had been fished straight from a bonfire and placed on top of a bed of wilted weeds. Apparently, someone in the kitchen thought it was clever to plate the burnt side down, as though we wouldn't notice their presentation trend. We did. It was shameful, for the waiter, the kitchen staff, and Larkin's management. Any place that serves food this carelessly and with such little regard for their guests should be embarrassed to call itself a restaurant. We came to Larkin's expecting a warm, memorable brunch with family. What we got instead was the kind of meal that makes you want to write a scathing review. So here it is. The only silver lining? Asking for the check and having it arrive swiftly so we could make our escape and find a restaurant that respects its guests and knows the difference between a delicious food and burnt offerings.

Now my third time there- same story each time. Food is good to very good. Service is slow- every time. That's not just the food in the kitchen- it's the sometimes-absent wait staff. And prices seem high for the experience. It isn't a "special place" like Halls or Jiannas- and as such $65 entrees seem a bit aggressive.

Food was not good. Prices were high our waitress was very friendly and service was quick. Had a steak was small and fatty.

Went for happy hour as the deals are terrific. $1 oysters and 1/2 price appetizers! Deals on certain drinks .. oysters were great. Also they served spinach artichoke dip with potato chips because they ran out of pita/ nacho chips...it was odd and didn't go together that well. My dirty martini.was so so...it was " clear dirty mix".. I would NOT order this again.. it was like salty vodka .. not even that cold and no blue cheese olives... Super clean ..and we timed this right on Christmas vacation week so it was not that busy. Just watch what you order!

Fabulous Happy Hour! Prices were reasonable on drinks and food (specific menu-50% off). Our soft spoken waiter was wonderful ! Sad I can't remember his name. Smash burger was wonderful and the homemade potato chips were the best I have ever had. We sat outside on a beautiful Friday afternoon and had espresso martinis (1/2 off also). Highly recommend!!

Nice ambiance and probably nice for a special occasion. I'm not much of a fine dining lover so it's not really my vibe. The portions are tiny and expensive but the flavors were pretty good and overall we enjoyed our meal! The service was a tad slow but nothing outrageous and it was early Saturday evening. Two of us got the BLT salad and added shrimp--shrimp was delicious but they gave 3 shrimp. I was so hungry after the meal so not quite worth the price for me but that's personal preference! We also got the Brussels sprouts and they were soaking in oil/duck fat and were not great. Ultimately not a bad place if you enjoy fine dining and don't mind paying for it!

Although the crab cakes I had were some of the best I have ever eaten, failure to advise that the lunch menu would not be available for a 12:15 reservation, despite a lunch menu being displayed on their website was very annoying. Additionally, charging me a total of $130 for two pork tenderloin entrees which should have only been $60 total and $8 for a side of mashed potatoes that was never served was also annoying. For the record, the billing errors were corrected quickly after I brought them to the attention of our server, which I appreciated.

She crab, sea bass, scallops - all outstanding - Bill our server is the man - knows everything about the menu and beyond. Thank you Larkin's for a great night.

I had brunch at Larkin's during my trip to Greenville. It is a short walk from the Peace Center so was very convenient for the theatre performance. I wasn't a fan of the booth seating as it was uncomfortable and a strange setup with needing to move the table to get in. I would have preferred a table. Then I was seated away from everyone else which was quieter but I am pretty sure the other room was nicer. Service was amazing here so friendly and thoughtful. I love eggs benedict but was disappointed in this as it came with a seasoning on it and scallions which was not listed in the description. From the menu: "english muffin, canadian bacon, poached eggs, hollandaise, home fries". I don't like extra stuff on my food. If those ingredients were listed I would have asked for them not to be put on had I known. Instead I had to pick off the yucky stuff. I wouldn't return here.

What a great dinner we had here. I don't live in Greenville anymore so when I am visiting, there are so many restaurants to try these days. I heard about Larkins several years ago, but this was our first time dining there. The cocktails were great, the mushroom ravioli was so good, and my Elk Tenderloin was DELICIOUS. Come on, when there's Elk in a menu, you have to try it, right?!? It did NOT disappoint. Anna the server also was amazing!

Today we tried Larkins in their new location. When I walked in I saw the waiter that waited on us the last time we visited Larkins in their old location. I said..."Hi! I think you waited on us at the old spot..."! She said "Yes! It was you, your husband and three young men with you the last time"! I said...correct"! Terri was so friendly and helpful. While we waited on our food, she gave me a short tour of the restaurant and we enjoyed a great conversation. This visit included myself, my husband and my son. We were there for brunch so my husband and I ordered Roasted Chicken with rice and we split an order of Brussels Sprouts. My son ordered the French Toast, Potatoes and Bacon. It was all very yummy!! I helped my son eat his food because he had a lot of food!! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Terri greeted us and stopped by to chat a couple of times but Bill was our regular waiter this time. The manager was present and came by to check on us. One thing that happened that I thought was great is the fact that both Bill and Terri saw that my son was on crutches and took time to chat with him about what happened and the. Wished him well and a speedy recovery. My son decided that he was going to bring a date to Larkins and Terri told him to ask for her when he does. ABC I promised them that we would be back again and that I would try to schedule our executive team to book their next dinner there. Great service...Great food!!

I have eaten at Larkins on a few occasions while they were in their old historic building. Apparently I never wrote a review. Until now I would have given them all "5s"... This last meal was excellent. We went with good friends. The two of us both chose the Elk Tenderloin, which was a nice portion of Elk served with dark mushrooms, asparagus and a very interesting lavender and hibiscus jus. Great combination of flavors. We ordered mixed drinks which were also well done. I like the old Larkin building with the old brick walls and the view of the river. The new place doesn't have the same ambiance, or the superb location, but it is nice and bright. They also have Valet parking, which in the ever more crowded downtown area, is a plus. The service, unfortunately, was slow and spotty. It took a while for our waitress to stop by. It took while to get our drinks. We had to ask for bread. It took a while to arrive. There was no butter. Eventually she took our orders. Finally we were served. Fortunately we had some "catching up" to do with our friends and we enjoyed the conversation without the interruptions of eating... :-) I would go back. Hopefully they were just understaffed on this night.

Best shrimp and grits I've ever had .. great atmosphere and price was right . I will be back for sure.

Fun happy hour spot. Great truffle fries, calamari and yummy drinks were enjoyed!! Service was excellent as well! Quick for how busy they were!

Pretty great happy hour at the bar. Smash burger and fries were fresh and fun. Funny that the old fashioned comes without the cherry during happy hour. Drinks were good and served quickly.

Took my parents here for an anniversary lunch on a Friday afternoon.. Although our waiter seemed fairly new, our service and the ambiance was great! (They gave our table complimentary glasses of champagne to celebrate the occasion.) The food was decent. It's just overpriced.. For example, we asked how much the kids meal would be for my nephew. $16!! That's ridiculous in my opinion. My mother's shrimp burger also had a piece of hair on it, so she had to order something else! Overall, we had a memorable experience, but I could recommend various other restaurants in Downtown Greenville that are better.

We loved the outdoor seating under the sails. This is in a great area of downtown. We were seated and served quickly. We split several appetizers and they were all excellent. The shrimp ceviche and oysters really impressed. Our service was fast and kind. Overall a great experience here!

My husband booked us reservations while we were staying in Greenville. One of the things I loved most about the restaurant was that is was right along the river and we could walk to it from our hotel. I was a bit concerned when I saw that most everyone there was in what I would consider to be casual clothing for a restaurant that I didn't think was family casual. But, people dressing like bums seems to be the norm now ‍ Thankfully dinner was great, and our experience pleasantly surprised us. We had the truffle fries as an appetizer, which are hard not to love! I apparently was too excited for dinner to remember to take pictures. But I ordered the balsamic salmon and my husband had the ribeye. Both were delicious and cooked perfectly. I'm sure we will be back to visit again.

On Saturday I took my niece and nephew to Greenville, SC for the Labor Day weekend. After researching restaurants with good seafood, we ended up at Larkins. I made a reservation and added a request for a booth or corner table. When we arrived, we were seated at a table in the middle of the floor. Since several booths were available, we asked for one. As the host began to prepare another center table, we sat down in one of several empty booths and told her we'd love to sit there. She was friendly, offered an explanation, and we sat comfortably in the booth. We started with a dozen oysters and an order of truffle fries for my 11-year old nephew. The oysters were fresh and larger than expected. Huge plus! The aioli that accompanied the truffle fries was amazing. Our appetizers were a 10/10. I ordered the Peppered Pink Panther, which was easily the best grapefruit drink I've ever tasted. I've tried 1 or 2 before at other restaurants and none of them were great. There was a service shift between the appetizers and entrees. Several tables appeared to be waiting for their food for a good while. An hour after we were seated, we were still waiting on our entrees. The delicious appetizers and bread saved the day. When our food was finally served, only one dish was hot. The salmon. My nephew devoured it. Unfortunately, the short ribs were room temperature at best. I believe it would have been close to extraordinary because the meat was still tender although it had zero warmth or heat. In this case, it was fair at best. The scallops were also tasty, but they were served without any heat, which made it lackluster. The lobster mac was disappointing. It wasn't horrible by any means, but it was absolutely not tasty enough to justify the price tag. I ordered it so the three of us could try it out. We each took a bite and felt like one bite was enough. Finally, we all ordered the apple caramel cake. It's made like bread pudding. Again, I'm sure this could've been a hit, but it wasn't even lukewarm. The ice cream was a real treat, but it would've been better with a dish that wasn't served at room temperature. Our dining experience for three wasn't worth the $275.00 spent (before the tip). I understand things happen and wait times may increase. Serving our food late but hot could've made the entire experience worthwhile. Could've would've should've. Three generous stars - solely for the drinks and appetizers.

This is our go to before events at the Peace Center and it NEVER disappoints. Make sure you tell them you are going to a show and they will be mindful of the dinner service time. We ordered the bacon lettuce and tomato salad with the addition of grilled chicken and mushroom ravioli with grilled shrimp (addition) - it was fantastic as always. Phil was our server and was very attentive, professional and personable! Love Larkins! Enjoy

Extreme Disappointment at Larkin's Greenville on New Year's Eve I had high expectations for our visit to Larkin's on New Year's Eve, which also happened to be my wife's birthday. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of what one should expect from a restaurant with a reputation for fine dining and a price range of $50-$100 per plate. We made our 5:15 PM reservations well in advance and were surprised to find no valet parking or dedicated parking lot. We had to use a $20 pay-to-park lot across the street. Upon entering, we were seated promptly, and things started on a positive note with the she-crab soup, which was flavorful and packed with crab. While I prefer a touch of sherry in mine, it was still enjoyable. Unfortunately, that was the only highlight of our visit. Our waiter lacked attentiveness and professionalism. For a restaurant of this caliber, I expected much more. Despite noting in our reservation that we were celebrating my wife's birthday, he seemed indifferent when I mentioned it, responding with a simple "oh." When it came to the entrees, the experience only worsened. I ordered a Prime Ribeye, but was served the Prime Rib special instead. Given the delay and the fact that it was the evening's special, I decided to try it anyway--a mistake. The cut was overly fatty (50% fat) and completely flavorless. My wife ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Grits, but there was nothing remotely Cajun about them--they were dry and bland. My daughter and her friend chose the Pork Tenderloin with sweet potato purée. While the purée was surprisingly good, the tenderloin was overly dry. They also ordered a family-sized side of mashed sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and loaded mashed potatoes. The sweet potatoes were extremely bitter and inedible, the mac and cheese was just passable, and the loaded mashed potatoes were a disappointment: a bowl of plain potatoes topped with a dollop of sour cream, bacon bits, shredded cheese, and scallions--even though we had specifically requested no scallions. The service did nothing to redeem the poor food quality. The waiter never checked back with us after the kitchen staff delivered our meals. There were no offers of refills or any inquiries about how we were enjoying the food. When he finally returned with the check and asked if we needed boxes, we explained that the sweet potatoes were bitter and barely touched. His response? A dismissive "oh." He forgot to bring the boxes and had someone else deliver them later. This was not my first visit to Larkin's. When they were located by the river, they demanded and delivered excellence in both service and food. It's disappointing that they failed so miserably on such an important occasion as my wife's birthday. At $350 for this experience, I would strongly recommend considering one of the other upscale restaurants in the area just a few blocks away. These establishments have consistently delivered excellence over the years and are far more deserving of your special occasions.

While in Greenville our party ate here 3 times! The guys went for dinner Friday night while the ladies went to a concert and we went back Saturday night for a birthday dinner and ended the weekend with brunch. Had the same awesome servers all 3 meals - Trent And Isabelle. They did a fantastic job! Also met Bruce the VP of the restaurant group - truly a lovely guy. Our party had steaks and the sea bass Saturday night and various brunch items Sunday - we saw the French toast at another table and wished we had ordered that it all looked great! The wedge salad is not to be missed. Also the Deviled eggs were ordered all 3 meals. When in town - be sure to visit and ask for Trent and Isabelle :)

Hosted a dinner here while in town for a conference. Our servers were very attentive and personable. The food was excellent as well. We were sat in the Chief's Atrium which wasn't too loud and a good experience. I had the bone-in filet which was excellent. The she crab soup was phenomenal as well. Highly recommend for a nice dinner out.

We ate dinner at Larkin's and the service was terrible. Our server never told us her name and despite the fact that the restaurant was empty, she didn't come see if we needed anything. For a meal costing over $150 for two filet mignon, we were deeply disappointed as one steak was burned on both the inside and out and the other was burned on the outside and red on the inside. Food was sadly not good so I don't recommend at all. Server came to refill drinks only once we were done eating.

Food needs improvement desperately! We have been on more than one occasion and no improvement. Before moving to the new location Larkins food was delicious & well prepared. Now it's just a pretty place serving subpar food! Today's brunch with the Family was the last chance! Chicken & waffles were awful! Chicken was over cooked and waffles were very dry and NO taste! Our server was polite! But do yourself a favor and pick some place else if you're looking for good quality food!

Our first time at the new location. Older people are seated in the back (terrible view). Younger people are seated in the front (better view). We were seated in the back next to the door to the patio in the most uncomfortable booth you can imagine ... you have to slide the table out to get seated. The cold draft from the door was not welcomed. The food and service are as good as it was at the old location. Nothing above average. The grilled flat iron steak and the roasted salmon were somewhat delicious. The frites (probably frozen) and the squash were nothing special. Given our seating location and view, the prices are too high. Also, we had to ask for bread on the table. Why isn't it offered? We were very disappointed. Larkin's took a step backward.

The service was ok. Our waitress Anna was very attentive. We had a party of 7. Our food came out at different times. The reason they said was because they were short kitchen staff by 2 people. Food quality I give a 3. None of our steaks were cooked how we wanted and tasteless. I probably won't be back but Anna gets 10 stars. She needs a raise! We still had a pretty good time despite the food. Drinks were pretty good as well.

Food, service, vibe and location is great! I had the sea bass, caesar salad and apple crumble cake. My colleague had the filet and potatoes. All amazing! We had our regional sales training at the AC Hotel which is right there in the same area. Chef Hayes is the man too!

The bread and she-crab soup were delicious! We ordered a filet medium rare and they came back more like medium to medium well. We brought it to the attention of our server who seemed non-plussed by it all and didn't offer any options to remediate the issue. We also had potatoes au gratin but the sauce tasted like Alfredo sauce and was rather bland. Maybe just an off night...

Best filet and seafood in town, great atmosphere and amazing bar and drinks! Staff is very attentive and sweet! I'm obsessed with their quality oysters, crab cakes, Asian beef bowl and salads. Such a great place for a fine dining afternoon!

Isabel greeted us with a warm welcome as we walked into Larkins and since we had no reservations, we just wanted to have drinks , she said we can sit outside by the cozy fire pit. It was a beautiful evening just after the tree light ceremony. Anna was our gracious sweet server who gave us such awesome service. My Kir Royale was so good....felt like I was back in PARIS! Thank you so much for a fun experience at Larkins!!!

Let me start by saying the food and the ambiance were top notch. The server came up to our table at the end and asked if we wanted to split it down the middle. (There were 2 couples in our party). We each paid half and it seemed very high for what we got. We asked the server about it and he said it was correct. We NEVER saw a bill or were offered the opportunity to see a bill. Probably our fault for not insisting. The next day, I totaled everything that we ordered. It was $522. The bill that we paid exceeded $800. We are more than happy to pay for the top notch food, but clearly something was amiss. It was a disappointing end to a phenomenal night.
