Best Southern American Restaurants in Greenville

This was our second dining experience at Sassafras. We live out of state but visit Greenville from time to time. Sassafras was an excellent choice! We started with their broccoli cheese soup which was delicious. That was followed with the fried green tomatoes accompanied by pimento cheese. So good! Then the main course. My wife had pecan crusted trout which never ceases to amaze. I had the meatloaf covered lightly in a bbq/bourbon sauce that thrilled my tastebuds! All of it was accompanied by a full bodied Taittinger Champagne that did not disappoint. To top everything off, you need to order their peanut butter pie. You’ll think life can’t get any better than that pie. Pair all of this with wonderful, attentive wait staff and you have an evening you won’t soon forget! We’ll be back.

Madison’s is a family Christmas tradition! We’ve been there for lunch and dinner many times and have never been disappointed. Fantastic service, delicious meals and lovely setting! We love Madisons!!!!!!

The restaurant was all decked out for Christmas, quite beautiful. The server was knowlegable and attentive.my husband and I each had the crab cake dinner and it was very good. We have been here before always good food and service.

This is a great place for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Two things they don't have is live music ie. guitarist and a large bread selection. biscuits, bagels, rolls, but no banana bread, wheat bread, crackers and cheese or different bagels other than plane. That would be the difference between under $50.00 a head and over $60.00 a head. For being under $50 a head, what they have is great Between the two seatings in 2024, there were less people signed up for Christmas than Thanksgiving. It was almost elbow to elbow to walk around at that seating.

The service and food were excellent. The seasoning of the grilled haddock was on point and the beef medallions were so tasty. My husband and I can't wait to go back and try out more dishes on the menu.
