Pleased with food and service. The only reason it wasn't 5-stars is the space is so cramped and tiny, no reservations and haven't been without a wait. A space expansion or offering even limited reservations or having an enjoyable waiting area (vs sidewalk) would make it 5. Once you sit down it's delicious!!
When you make it to Greenville and it's too early for your hotel check in, swing by this cozy spot for a taste of the sea. As a solo diner today, I was seated at the pretty bar closest to the action of the kitchen. An ideal front row seat to the chef grilling oysters and the ultimate "picture" menu in real life as plate after delicious plate passed in front of me. I ordered the clam chowder (which was creamy perfection) with oyster crackers, and grilled oysters with bread for dipping into the garlic butter goodness at the bottom of the pan. A delicious and satisfying meal! A big thank you to Emma who was so personable and provided excellent care from start to finish. The restaurant was packed, and she expertly floated from behind the bar and throughout the space, navigating tight corners, refilling water, delivering food, clearing dishes and all with a smile. A very memorable experience. I will return.
Everything was great from checkin to service!!! Top notch I don't remember our waitress I think her name was trenity and she was fabulous!!! I will be back and the Nola Oysters and main lobster roll!!!! Wtf !!! It's the best oysters in Greenville! We will be back soon. Thank you for the great experience!!! The drinks are top notch also
Everything was amazing! Their Nola Grilled Gulf Oysters came with the best bread and their Smoked Carolina Fish Dip was so good we had to get a pint to go. I got the Maine Lobster Roll and my husband got the Low Country Crab Rice and both dishes really could not have been better! Perfect date night! P.s. the service was great!
Excellent food & service! Small venue so best for smaller parties. Great wine selection too! Highly recommend!
Perfect spot for lunch downtown! The restaurant is small but lively. Our waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Everything we tried was delicious! The hush puppies and fish dip are perfect starters. The Connecticut lobster roll was simple but delicious and the crab rice is a must try! We had the scorched orchard and tequila from mars cocktails and both were tasty.
It's great to be back at Jones Oyster Co., and they continue to impress! The chef's choice oysters were excellent, and the Maine-style lobster roll was absolutely unbelievable--one of the best I've had. However, I wouldn't recommend the Tequila oyster shooter; it didn't quite hit the mark for me. That said, everything else was top-notch, with the food and drinks maintaining a consistently high standard. The wait staff were attentive and friendly, adding to the overall experience. Plus, you can grab a Narragansett for just $5, which is a nice bonus. Jones Oyster Co. is definitely a spot worth visiting!
The variety of oysters really opened my eyes to all the different flavors. From sweet to salty they were all fantastic. The shrimp burger was excellent too. And the service is among the best I have ever had at any restaurant in any city around the world. Highly recommended for anyone in the area, or even if you have to drive from Atlanta to experience it.
Food, service and ambiance, everything gets a 5/5! A very popular seafood place in Greenville, the restaurant is cute and fills up very quickly. If you do not come for a late lunch or early dinner, expect the wait to be long, especially because they don't take reservations! We tried the restaurant mid-week but it was still pretty busy. We were lucky to get the last table. We were party of 3 adults and a child. We ordered two appetizers, the hush puppies and the smoked Carolina fish dip. We also ordered three Pull and eat shrimp plates and a dozen grilled oysters. The appetizer is served with crackers and is just the right amount of crunch, fish, etc. the shrimps had a deliciously delicate flavor. I really enjoyed them. The hush puppies were cooked perfectly, and so were the oysters which tasted perfect with Parmesan on top accompanied with bread. This place is a must try if you are in Greenville. The next time I visit, it'll be the first restaurant on my list!
When I say everything here was delicious!!!! The drinks were perfect, fish dip was incredible. Overall experience was great even got to watch the Georgia -Clemson game.
