    Kale Caesar , gnocchi, calamari
    Tara L.

    Pricey for small plates but the portions ended up being decent. There were lots of things to choose from for the custom charcuterie plate. The calamari was vey good. The added string beans were a nice surprise. I really enjoyed the kale Caesar (not overly dressed). The pan fried gnocchi was very tasty. Nice bar area.

    Filet

    Came here for a friends birthday, we had a group of about 10 and received wonderful service. I'm not sure how she kept track of all the apps, mains and drinks but she was friendly and efficient throughout our dinner. A lot of our group got the charcuterie which I thought was very small for the price but nice that you could build your own. I got the filet which was amazing, super flavorful and fresh. Again, the portion was a 6oz cut of meat and sides were very small so it wasn't a lot of food for the money but I did enjoy it very much. Would go back to try more dishes.

    My new go to for date night, girls night, solo night. Etc. this is one of the few restaurants in Greenville, South Carolina, that really fosters an element where you can eat solo either at the bar, or at a table and feel completely fine, so kudos to them for having a cozy and comfortable ambience. Now for the food! We tried many things and all were tasty. My only comment was about the oysters Rockefeller, they were more creamy than a traditional Rockefeller but still tasty. If I had to pick one thing to focus on, and narrow it down to two items and pick the charcuterie board and the potatoes, which really took me by surprise, but when paired with their aïoli, it was absolutely fantastic! Service was excellent. We had Angie and she did a great job checking in on us and making sure we had the best experience while there.

    First time checking out Curean. Just stopped in for a few drinks before dinner w/friends. This ambiance is fabulous! Great service... I want to try EVERYTHING on the menu. This Pumpkin Espresso martini is TO DIE FOR! I already booked my birthday here!

    Oh. My. God. You know how new spots have to work out the kinks before they get rolling? Well this place is rolling and I can't wait to see how it does. Pauly was our server/bartender and he was incredibly kind and knowledgable; and a candid comment from another person in my party is "they work their asses off in here". And if you've ever been to Greece, you need to come here for the food. Those grape leaves tasted like mamas. And the espresso martini...oh, the espresso martini. It was IMPECIBLE. I want to gatekeep to make sure I can always get a table, but it's too good not to share. This is beyond good for Greenville.

    Leilani B.

    First time coming here and will definitely be coming back! We got the bone marrow, ricotta gnocchi, and a build your own charcuterie board. The ricotta gnocchi definitely stole the show!! It was so good we almost got one to go . Switched from outside seating to the bar because It was so hot outside, so we'll have to come back to see how service is.

Let me get to the issue first. We were a table of 6 and any party of 6 or more is required to do the tasting menu at $85 per person. We were there to celebrate my daughter's birthday, so it was not an issue, but this really should be stated up front when taking reservations, when confirming reservations and upon arrival. I'm sure this has resulted in some awkward exchanges for those not prepared. That being said, The Anchorage deserves the accolades it has been given. Every dish was spectacular, from the beet salad to start the meal to the apple pie to finish. We had crispy arancini that was the nights favorite, and the short ribs melted in our mouths. The portions are modest, yet we all left satisfied. There were three vegetable forward dishes, the beet salad, an Asian leaning cabbage dish and a carrot dish with a delicious sauce. In all we sampled 8 dishes and three desserts, as well as a bread service that came with an unctuous bourbon liver mousse. You will have a magnificent meal and experience there.

    The tasting menu is everything you see on the menu. It's really fun for the indecisive. They…read moreportion it pretty well so you can eat everything and still be full. All of the salads are amazing. I think the only misses are the Spaghetti Carbonara and the Seared Black Cod. The "Doublecream" Arancini was phenomenal. The bourbon liver mousse was astounding. The hamachi tiradito was great. The Braised Chatel Farms Beef Shortribs are fork tender. All of the desserts were really sweet. I didn't like any of them, far too indulgent. The service was great. We got low on water in the end. The restaurant is a bit cramped but there's seating on the outside and upstairs.

My first time was better (pun intended!). The dessert was so-so. I got the Naughty by Nature and the lime was WAY too tart.

That kind of service is appreciated. Unfortunately, everything else? Pretty underwhelming. First impressions? Chaos. The entrance area is a logistical mess. People trying to enter, others trying to leave, a cramped waiting area, and no host in sight to direct traffic or check people in. Add dim lighting that makes it hard to see people moving around, and you've got elbows bumping and bodies brushing. Ironically, the most "intimate" part of the whole night was navigating the front door. The concept? Great. The execution? Not so much. I actually love the idea behind this place -- seductive storytelling by your server, iPads with flirtatious menus, and provocative questions to ask your partner. That's all fun... if that's what you're coming for. I came for the desserts. And as someone who takes sweets seriously, this place didn't deliver. Let's talk drinks: Tiny, overpriced, and flavor-wise -- basic. Nothing memorable. The chocolate-rimmed glasses are a nice touch in theory, but licking the rim doesn't elevate the drink. If I want to rim a glass with something sweet at home, I can. That alone doesn't justify the price. Now, the real heartbreak -- the desserts. My fiancé had the Prince Charming red velvet cheesecake, and I don't think I've ever encountered a cheesecake so dry, so devoid of flavor. Even the crust tasted off -- weirdly savory, and not in a creative way. I ordered the Blueberry Birthday -- it sounded like heaven: buttered cinnamon-sugar toast, Belgian white chocolate, spiked blueberry compote, brie cheese, and a strawberry champagne dip. Sadly, it was more like culinary whiplash. Dry. Disconnected flavors. The only thing that saved it from being inedible was the champagne dip -- without it, I probably would've choked. Three drinks and three desserts came out to around $90. For that price, I expected to be wowed -- or at least pleasantly full. I left confused, slightly annoyed, and still craving dessert. Maybe we came on an off night. Maybe we chose the wrong menu items. Either way, I won't be back to find out.
