This is the premier place in Greenville to people watch, and it turns out the food is good tools However, the location, particularly on the outdoor tables and particularly those not on the main street side (but those are good too) are awesome. You get all the tourists from the Westin next door as well as the regulars walking buy since this is a central location. A nice bottle of wine, ice cold glass of water, shade, an appetizer or two and this is worth the price of admission, which should be a great tip for good service and don't hold up the table, that's what you are effectively renting. Any of the food is good too, however, but that's not why you are here! read more

Ambiance great, service predictable, cocktail middle of the road, food: a notch below mediocre We ordered bourbon basil smash cocktail, roast vegetable bowl with tofu and a fried egg added on and blackened grouper hoagie sandwich with fries. Right from the way it looked to the way it tasted, there was consistent lackluster vibe. The vegetable bowl was an afterthought of a dish, very unsure brussel sprouts thrown together with a handful of carrot slivers, some odd bits of grains and a very forlorn handful of dry tofu. The fried egg on the top made it edible and I was glad that I asked for it. The crunchy bits of garlic on the side seemed like a fear of commitment. An entry that is named roasted garlic vegetable bowl should claim it loud and proud in every bite. Grouper hoagie... let us just say at that the fries on the side were the highlight of this dish. Very underwhelming experience saved by the fact that our seating was very conducive to conversation, round tables for six, what a brilliant set up and lighting and noise level just enough to enjoy the company. I might just bring take out here to enjoy the ambiance! read more

I had a really good night here at nose dive. Their menu is very well marked for gluten-free items and that's great for a celiac like me. Also, our server named Brian was super fantastic and also really seemed to get being celiac. Overall, they do blackened salmon really well and I would definitely come back here next time when I am in town. I would get side of the roasted Brussel sprouts. Fantastic. The only thing I would avoid was the regular french fries which were over salted and kind of average. However, the sweet potato, french fries looked pretty awesome and I should've gotten those. read more

It's been a while, but they are still fantastic! We ate outside on a beautiful Saturday morning for brunch. Our server Zavier was awesome as was everything we ordered. No complaints at all and we'll definitely be back. Can't go wrong at Nose Dive! read more

Came here for Sunday brunch, wasn't too crowded or loud. Didn't make a reservation but luckily they had plenty of tables available (for a party of 4). There was a $15(ish)/ person grits bar where you can go and get a bowl of grits from a buffet line setup with a large variety of veggie, cheese, and protein toppings! It was a huge hit with the group I was with. I ordered the avocado toast, it was magnificent. The toast was slightly crispy on the outside then soft & fluffy on the inside. It came sliced in four sections making it great for sharing. We also got a cranberry mimosa carafe ($23ish) and to my surprise it wasn't completely saturated with juice!! The champagne to cranberry ratio was perfect. They say you get what you pay for, but here, you get substantially more. 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

Nose Dive - Avocado Toast Brunch - Gastropubs Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Love the fun sign just inside with the nose in the burger. Shows the place's fun vibe with a hip edge. Outdoor seating or indoor dining... Matters not if it's nice weather they have the large windows open to let in the fresh air. 85% of the menu is either Gluten-Free or Gluten-Friendly and they have a dedicated fryer, which was a plus. Xavier was an amazing server and didn't scoff at our mods. The food was solid. When the devilled eggs are at the bottom of your ordered likes, then I'd say you're doing pretty A-okay! The White Cheddar Fritters were fantastic! They would call them Cheddar T-Bombs because they had an explosion of delicious cheesey goodness flowing from the middle of a perfectly round and tender fritter. The presentation was great with a dollop of pesto aoli and a shred of Parm with finely shredded basil. Each little ball of ooey gooey deliciousness was on a smear of Tomato Jam. The Fried Chicken sandwich had us happy we opted to try it as it was hanging off the bun and perfectly good with a crunchy exterior and plump inside. We didn't care for the sweet-ish Alabama White, so glad we ordered off-side. The fries were plentiful. The NoseDive Mac & Cheese was a great thing to split. Love that you can order as is or add in a protein of you want to make it your meal. The four cheeses blended nicely together and allowed for a good cheese-pull when digging in. Needless to say our eyes were bigger than our stomachs and we have leftovers! Will definitely recommend and will return if in Greenville again! read more

Came here with some local friends and had a great time. The breakfast hash was particularly good. The service was kind of slow, but maybe it was just an off day. It was very cool that they could open the windows right into the street. read more

This terrific gastropub in downtown Greenville serves up delicious burgers, sandwiches and entrees in a warm, cozy setting that's perfect for everything from a business lunch to a casual date night. Their Soft Baked Pretzel Sticks were delicious, and the flavorful Turkey Melt sandwich I ordered for my lunch entree was more than big enough to share. The menu also includes Southern favorites like Chicken & Waffles, Mac & Cheese and a Carolina Hot Chicken Sandwich. Nose Dive has an excellent list of local and regional craft beers on tap and in bottles, and the bar has a full selection of wine and liquors. Service was superb on my visit, and parking is conveniently available in a pay lot across Main Street or in the deck for the adjacent Westin Hotel. A wonderful find in Greenville! read more

In town for work and best I can offer is this place is just ok. Everything about here needs a lift. Service was scattered. Food was ok but not great. Drink had to be sent back as it arrived with bits floating in it from whatever the bartender had last made in the shaker. We sat outside cause inside seating, despite lots of empty tables, was a 15 min wait. This time of year it wasn't too hot to be outside for dinner but soon it will be very hard to be outside as the temps rise. Located next to the Westin might make it any easy place for some folks to check out but I would suggest people maybe walk a little to find a better meal in downtown. read more

Wanted to try out this nice looking restaurant attached to a hotel on main street near all the other great dining. The atmosphere is more dim and has a finer dining feel to it. We were sat easily although our waiter seemed sidetracked or not focused on our table really. We were constantly waiting on things. Our drinks took a while and some never came at all so we said never mind. Our entrees were the worst part, I ordered Mac n cheese as I love it. Was told it was large, it was definitely more like a side. Not much to it, nothing to make it stand out as an entree, a big let down and was still left hungry. Unfortunately my friends steak came out rare instead of well. Huge difference there for a chef ran kitchen.... His replacement took so long we got it to go. Needle to say a very awkward dining experience, left us not wanting to return. This place doesn't seem to live up to its fancy attire, as its kitchen is a mess and service not the best. read more

Nose Dive was a little of a let down. I came here for Sunday brunch looking forward to some yummy food and drinks. I ordered the steak and eggs both cooked medium. It also came with potatoes. The meal was just ok.... I didn't love it as much as I hoped. I ordered a pineapple mimosa carafe and I was disappointed in it as well. Loved the $12 price but not the flavor. Very flat. I also had some hazy ipa on draft and I didn't enjoy it much either. The bartender was cool and very prompt in assisting me. I have no complaints on the service. The hostess girls also were friendly upon arrival. This seems to be a very popular, causal downtown spot. The inside has a table top seating and there is also a spacious patio out front. I wouldn't rule out coming here again as it seems to definitely have potential. read more

Sunday brunch can be the best time with friends, family and a way to savor local flavors. Never had we been to Nose Dive for brunch... our dinner long time ago with friends was wonderful.. We looked at the brunch menu and all it took was the grits bar to stop us Cold In Our Tracks Grits doesn't cover it Adulah creamy stone grits Fresh and buttery biscuits Weekly the chef picks the toppings for the bar and this week we had such amazing toppings... see video for the bar and its many wonders.. Simms was our server and she topped off drinks, took our plates when empty... Quiet even though the place was packed.. downtown vibe and amazing people and food... You don't want to miss this brunch..... Did I say $4 mimosas?!? read more

Nose Dive - Kale Salad Dinner - Gastropubs Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

I order an appetizer, but as a dinner price. Food presentation was awful & tasted burnt & nasty just as It looked! They offered to remake it & did but it was worse than first and look as they just refried the same food. It laid on the aluminum foil. It was full of oil. Should've just returned it but I didn't won't to further upset myself by explaining why I returned it when it should've never been served to a dog or hearing them trying to justify it. SMH. The host wasn't so friendly and the place could use a cleaning & customer service training course. I WENT THERE A FEW WEEK BACK AND BARTENDER & Staff was really great as was the food that's why I order it read more

Great southern food. We came for the first time after the farmers market. We had Bloody Mary, skillet breakfast and the waffle and chicken, and a side of grits. Everything was delicious. One of the best waffle and chicken. The waffle nicely crispy and texture accompany with well seasoned chicken. The Carolina hot was good, but the original was tastier. The service was great. We shared the chicken and waffle with side of grits and they split both for sharing. read more

This place is always looking booked and busy! We stopped by for a late lunch. The turkey melt was amazing! The pretzels were a great choice for an appetizer. The roast beef dip was delicious and i loved the ability to dip it in a sauce. The Mac and cheese was dry, not cheesy and not worth it. They also took long to get our order out. But pretty good otherwise! The bathrooms are also very far away, but i think it's because it's connected to a hotel. Nothing too special! read more

Good night out!! This was right next to our hotel and we wanted something simple and delicious. We split the Mediterranean salad--I really liked the mint and orzo--not normally in a salad. We shared entrees, too. I got the chicken sandwich with hot sauce on the side and sweet potato fries--next time I would definitely just have the sauce right on the sandwich--so good!! Spicy and sweet! The sweet potato fries were a real hit, too! My husband ordered the fish and chips--we weren't crazy about the regular fries--they weren't bad, but we would have preferred them a bit crisper. The fish, though, was fantastic!! A lot of places neglect the breading on fish and just sort of fry it, just to fry it. This fish, though, was super flavorful--the coating reminded me of the flavor of the best gas station fried chicken--just the right amounts of salt, pepper--maybe celery salt? The fish itself was soft and flaky, really great! We sat by the open air windows and loved getting to watch the crowds walk by while enjoying the breeze. Finally, our server, Angelica, was really fantastic--she definitely made this a five star experience. She had a bunch of tables, and I noticed that lots of customers were asking for all sorts of substitutions, add-ons, etc, but she handled every single person with such grace and friendliness--she was awesome!! Overall, a really enjoyable evening. read more

We picked this spot for brunch because it has a dog friendly patio and a dog menu! The staff were very accommodating and friendly with our dog and got him a bowl of water to go with his chicken. For the humans, we tried the pretzels and cheese, macaroni with bbq chicken, and chicken and waffle. Dare I say the pretzels and cheese were the best I've ever had - and I've had a lot. Great flavor and wasn't just a plain beer cheese. Pretzels were fluffy and delicious. For the meals, the servings were generous so you could probably split one app and one entree if you're not starving. The chicken and waffles was cooked well but I wasn't the biggest fan of the waffle. Overall, friendly service, dog friendly, fabulous pretzels, and a nice patio area. If we go back to Greenville I'd try nose dive again for dinner. read more

Spot on a fabulous dinner and excellent waiter (Brian)! We were completely unfamiliar with where we should eat while visiting Greenville, and a local suggested Nose Dive to us. Dang - was he right!! We had fried green tomatoes for an appetizer and entrees were the fish & chips and the new (and best ever) roast beef sandwich. The roast beef was honestly like shirt ribs on a toasted hoagie with amazing gravy for dripping. Cocktails were also sooo good! Brian - thank you for being an absolutely superior waiter!! read more

Gluten free options, an outdoor area to people watch and great service! Angelica was our server and she was the perfect server. She explained all of my GF options and described the preparation and ingredients. My husband is not GF and she did the same for him. I have the fish and chips with freshly made coleslaw and it was really good. My husband had a very meaty and delicious loaded burger. He said the meat was of a high quality. We sat outside with our dog but our service was never lacking even though we were outside. The inside had a nice vibe and it looked like the service was good. The prices are very reasonable .

Staying at the Marriott next door. Drove 5 hours in the rain from NC. Was recommended by Courtyard to grab a bite here. Sat in the bar and Erin or Aaron made me a very strong and delicious lemon drop. It hit the spot after my drive. I ordered the fish n chips it was perfect! Crispy and yummy so was the coleslaw. She checked on me often and was very helpful in deciding what to eat. Glad I came here and probably will again before I head back after my business trip. Go see Erin for sone kickin good drinks! read more

Came here with my parents for dinner, only had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated without a reservation. We had great service, ambiance was visually pleasing but also very loud-no noise dampening at all. We ordered the salmon with fregola pasta, fish and chips and pan seared salmon on a salad. All were pretty good, I felt the Parmesan crusted salmon with fregola could have had better flavor and the crust seemed a bit stale. Not my favorite dish but the others were very good. Will be back to try other items on the menu. read more

My family and i went downtown after church looking for a place eat lunch. We landed at Nose Dive as I had never been there before. Of course my husband had been there a few times. He wasn't too keen on dining here but since I had never been...he digressed. My husband pointed out that there wasn't much for me to choose from...as I have a gluten allergy (his last attempt to get up and find somewhere else). I was so excited to see how many gluten free items they had on their menu...I had a hard time deciding. Now...although I enjoyed my (gluten feee) fish & chips, my husband and son did not enjoy theirs very much. My husband said the chicken was ok but the waffles were rock hard. My son said the same about his regular fish and chips...they weren't very flavorful. I will try Nose Dive again, because it has a great atmosphere, prices are affordable and the servers were friendly and helpful. And I'm looking forward to trying more of the gluten free items on the menu. read more

I completely understand why this place is 3.5 stars. Got here and checked in to have lunch to celebrate a victory for my son's soccer team and checked in shortly after 2 other families. While waiting with the 2 other families a third family with 3 people check in and somehow got sat before my son and I. When I approached the hostess in the picture she said both tables had only one seat left each so rather than fighting with the hostess we decided to wait our turn. Then after waiting 10 minutes I approached the hostess stand and asked about a table for 2 and fortunately the manger was there and got a sat a table away from another family. Let's see if the food and service make up for the seating experience. So far so good. Evan was our server and he helped us both decide on food selection. My son and I both got Evan's suggestion, crispy chix sandwich; Brody got the original sauce with reg. Fries and I opted for the Carolina hot and truffle Parmesan fries. To drink I decided to get a Paloma. Tasty drink for a Saturday afternoon. I like the accordion type window that opens to the sidewalk on Main Street and the weather on this day can't be beat with a stick! Waiting on lunch now while enjoying a nice breeze and my blood Paloma. Great sandwich and tasty meal. The food more than made up for the frustration with seating. Great place to grab a bite when browsing in DT Greenville. Cheers! read more
