Very good!! Service was great i loved the lamb appetizer platter. The paring was excellent a very good choice of cheese, pickle, lamb and tzatziki sauce! The shrimp scapatini was delicious 10/10 id definitely get again! The pasta lamb was ok, good but id take the shrimp over it. The espresso martini was perfectly made a good mix of salt and espresso on the rim it was perfectly put together. Prices were a little high but not outrageous for downtown Greenville. Parking was also great on a Friday night! Overall a good place to sit, eat, chill and enjoy!

I've travel to Greece twice, grew up in NYC and the outer boroughs visiting Astoria a Greek community for restaurants. I must say Ji-Roz in Greenville, SC deserves to have lines of people waiting to get in. The braised lamb shank was suggested by the waitress, Sadie. WOW! The meat was so tender falling off the bone, so juicy, so tasty due to a delectable tomato-brown gravy. Best lamb I ever had in my life. Even if you are not a lamb lover you should try this and guaranteed will become a convert. The dish came with the perfect accoutrements: light, fluffy, creamy mash potatoes which flourished admist the brown-tomato based gravy and a uniquely prepared carrots. My husband enjoyed the fresh octopus and we both loved the calamari appetizer as it was lightly breaded and tender, not rubbery like many restaurants. We then asked for a dessert suggestion. Both Sadie the waitress and hostess Taylor stated ALL desserts are freshly made on the premises and to try the Zemek Dessert made of layersof : shredded, buttery, sweet filo dough on the bottom, custard in the middle and whip cream on top.....to die for!!! I must say ALL the dishes were fresh, cooked and seasoned to perfection. This was the best GREEK RESTAURANT I've been too in 67 years and the staff couldn't have been nicer. Do yourself a favor and experience a night at Ji-Roz in Greenville, SC. It will be money well spent! Congratulations to the chefs, staff and managers for providing a wonderful dining experience and SUPERB FOOD!
