How we made this list
We looked at 10 restaurants in Downtown, Greenville SC with a Google rating of 4.0 or higher and at least 20 reviews, then listed on Google as “Romantic”, then by rating. A rating from thousands of reviews counts for more than the same rating from a handful, so a new place with a few perfect scores does not jump the queue. Ratings and hours are from public Google listings on 11 October 2026 and can change. Nobody paid to be on this list.
