Best Cuban pork north of Florida (that I’ve found)!! About 30-45 minute drive, depending on traffic, but if you’ll be going through/near Simpsonville, is definitely worth a stop. Also great selection of sandwiches and other special dishes, don't forget the sauces (white sauce is our fave!), and for a treat, try the Cuban coffee and desserts!

Best ice cream in the world, in our experiences, anyway! The wait can be long; SO well worth it, for their handmade ice cream. You pick either vanilla or chocolate & huge choice of add-ins. Kids love!

Our favorite, and in our opinion, the very best sushi restaurant anywhere in the Upstate. This is in downtown Greenville.
Great selection of sushi along with hibachi and noodle dishes, lovely atmosphere & always impeccable service.
Closest off-street free parking is at the Richardson Street garage; it’s only 1 1/2 blocks away and is free on the weekends and on weeknight evenings.

For a unique experience, you *must* try this local coffee shop that has been part of downtown's revitalization. Of all of the local restaurants, this is the one that I always recommend and always take visitors to, one family or friends from out of town come in.
The best chocolate cake that I have ever had, homemade or restaurant, in all of my travels.... And my mom is an incredible cook!
Espresso and lattes are wonderful, the baristas really know what they are doing.
Great lunch, breakfast, or light supper, with a nice selection of sandwiches, quiche & other light meals. My personal favorite sandwich is the turkey and brie.

Local, family owned chain; the location on Mills Avenue is closest but they have locations in Anderson, Easley, and Mauldin; also other Greenville locations including near Haywood Mall and on Pelham Road
I don’t like hot dogs, but I LOVE Skin’s. 2 “all-the-way” is a perfect meal, and of course, you have options of what you want on there.
CASH ONLY, they do not accept credit or debit cards. Very reasonably priced.
