About

Downtown Greenville got its first raw bar when this spot opened inside ONE City Plaza, and the gleaming ice bar up front is still the first thing that pulls people in. Expert shuckers work an ever-changing lineup of oysters you can mix and match into your own platter, plus littleneck clams, king crab legs, and a chef's crudo that changes by the day. It reaches well past the raw bar. Under chef Dom Angelo, the kitchen turns out seared tuna that regulars rave about, along with scallops, sea bass, and small plates, with steak on hand for whoever at the table didn't come for fish. The cocktails are built with real care, and the wine list runs deep enough that the happy hour pours have earned a following of their own. The room reads sharp and modern, easing from an early dinner crowd into a louder, later energy as the night runs on. It comes from the local team behind The 05, The 07, and The One5, and guests keep naming their servers in reviews, the attentive, knows-the-menu kind of hospitality that turns a first visit into a standing reservation. Since that crudo is never quite the same twice, half the fun is seeing what the shuckers have working the night you go.
