If you equate romance with French dining, then don't let Passerelle Bistro in downtown Greenville escape your attention. The restaurant feels like a Paris eatery, down to the details of soft yellow walls and contrasting deep red accents, with fresh flowers atop each table. Not to mention the French words for "hot" and "cold" on the bathroom faucets, if you must know. The light French menu of salads and sandwiches for lunch and heartier dishes like duck breast and vegetable pot pie for dinner also includes an all-French cheese board and wine list. Stop by for a romantic meal, inside or out. Passerelle's located right at the Main Street entrance to Falls Park and Greenville's landmark suspension bridge, Liberty Bridge.

Stella's Southern Bistro, located a bit off the Main Street grid in neighboring Simpsonville, affords hearty Southern favorites and a little romance without the price tag of downtown Greenville. Lunch and dinner options range from hanger steak and pork chops to shrimp and grits and NC monkfish, with more of a balance between land and sea options than other local Southern-inspired restaurants. The menu changes often, with daily and weekly specials that keep eating here exciting. But what remains the same is the more casual atmosphere and dishes that use local ingredients.

You might recognize the name "Halls" from its original Charleston counterpart, but Greenville has welcomed this beloved restaurant with open arms. Arguably the best steakhouse in Greenville, Halls is exceptional in everything from setting to service to, what else? The steak. Naturally, the steak here is the star. You'll find all sorts of variations in cut and aging process, but the menu is far more expansive, offering seafood, pork and chicken as well as options for vegetarians. And while the prices may seem high, they indicate the quality of the food and service you receive.

In fact, this may be the one of the most innovative menus you'll read in the Greenville area. Worth mentioning, too, is the staff's attentiveness to guest needs.
