Decided to try this restaurant for some small plates on our date night tonight. Service was good, not overly pushy, but attentive enough to meet our needs. We ordered the lobster cigars, asparagus, and the escargot for "dessert." All the food was very good. The escargot was the highlight! I have had escagot across the world and these were some of the best I have ever had. Almost needed to lick the plate good. Sorry, did not get a picture of the escagot. We ate them too fast. Cocktails were ok, but would mostly return for the food. Thank you for a lovely evening close to closing!

This is a small plate joint. Great service and outdoor seating is available. The bar plays sports and is quick with drinks. Got the spinach dip, beef Wellington (puffs), and escargot.Spinach Dip: No complaints. Great dip, crispy chips. Seasoned. Good stuff.Beef Wellington: These come in puffs. You get three and pay for each additional one after that. Puffs wouldn't be bad, I've had them in that style before, but it was very doughy in texture. Additionally, the beef filling was minute to the point they couldn't cook it to medium rare. Pretty tender tho, to a paste-like point, if that's your thing. It's not mine. Their Wellingtons are pretty violated tbh.Escargot: Pretty good. Recommended well over the Wellington if you're any interested. They actually cook this one spot on so it doesn't feel slimy from being undercooked or rubbery from being overcooked. If you're curious I would definitely recommend. There is an aftertaste that 1/3 of us didn't like, but it wasn't nasty, more weird. As long as you keep eating, you can't even notice.

I can not believe this Restaurant is as far down on the Tripadvisor list as it is! It should be in the Top Ten!! This restaurant was a result of a last minute “Where we gonna eat?” mad dash. The NCAA games were playing in town and it was their final game that night. People were heading to the Arena like lemmings. We walked up and down Main Street searching for a place when we found The Cazbah on a side street. Great people in charge. Very energetic and enjoying what they do. Being a Tapas bar, everything was small plates. But, everything was also very delicious! We were just two, but we ordered: Lobster Cigars, Beef Wellington, Enchiladas, Panko Asparagus and 2 orders of Meat-A-Balls. They didn’t have the wine we first ordered, but the second choice: Villa Pozzi Nero d’Avola was nothing less than superb. We even got them to wrap it so we could take the unused portion back to where we were staying, but it didn’t last long enough to bring it home! Great Food, Excellent Staff, and despite all we ate, it was under $80. Looking forward to going back the next trip down that way.

Great food and prices. Really great place to eat !!

Went for the first time tonight with our 3 teenagers and the food was incredible. Our server, Trinity, provided top notch service. Can’t wait to go back!

Pretty cool atmosphere. Food was great. Tapas definitely mean small portions so be prepared to order 4 mini meals, an appetizer and a dessert to fill up. I enjoyed it..the only thing I didnt care for especially in this current world climate is the fact that the expo did not wear gloves and used her hands to take toppings out of the fridge and place them on the plates, especially after watching her walk around and do other tasks without washing her hands in between. Otherwise, it was great.

Have gone to the Cazbah many times over the years. They were great in the beginning. It was a unique concept that has a ton of opportunity for fun, creative food and an ever changing menu either seasonally or at the whim of the chef. Instead, the menu hasn't changed in years except to go down in quality. The lobster cigars were so good years ago, actually having chunks of lobster meat. Now you're lucky to taste any. I check back here once in a while hoping to see that they realized the slump they're in and that they entirely revamped the menu. Instead I see the same ol same ol and go somewhere else. Chef, please find some passion again and reinvent the menu! You have so much potential being wasted!

This was our first time here but it definitely won’t be the last! Andrea was soooo accommodating to our large party! I was unsure of the size of our party for a surprise birthday celebration and she was so nice and understanding. Great communication. Once we arrived the food service and atmosphere was spectacular! Johnny was our server and he did a wonderful job taking care of our entire party.

We have lived in Greenville for almost 30 yrs and just discovered this lovely little hole in the wall. The food was fabulous, service was perfect, thank you Devin! and the atmosphere was nice. Personally, I believe the only thing missing is some nice soft jazz music. That would make it a 5! We will definitely be back, hoping for some jazz!

A true hidden gem that is amazing. Warmly greeted by Andrea the owner and seated in a cozy environment. Menu is amazing. Johnny or server offered great suggestions and was fun to talk too.
