The Lazy Goat is a Mediterranean-themed restaurant with a menu featuring global influences from Spain, Morocco, Italy, France, Greece, Africa and the Middle East in a relaxed atmosphere where taking the time to "linger and share" is encouraged.

The diverse menu was created to accommodate a variety of diner preferences with meat & cheese plates, small plates to “graze and nibble,” and main dishes.

Guests are invited to take their time while "trying a little bit of this and a little bit of that" or a "whole lot of whatever they like."

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
The Lazy Goat in Greenville offers a "unique and never-disappointing" Mediterranean menu with standout dishes like the "fried goat cheese balls" and "brussels sprouts." Its picturesque riverside patio and attentive service, often highlighted by servers like Geronimo and Hannah, create a memorable dining experience. However, note that it can be noisy inside.

    Our waiter, Jeronimo, was incredible. We had a bottle of French Malbec with a lovely dinner of lamb and pasta.

    Food was excellent. Fish was prepared to perfect doneness. It was completely cooked and still moist and flaky. Pasta was slightly Al dente which was perfect. Our server could not have been better. I wish I could remember her name to recognize her personally. All and all a perfect meal. This was our 3rd time here and every meal has been as good the last. I highly recommend this place.

    Great location, but the menu isn’t very large. The lighting is super bright and the noise level very loud. Our waiter was fine, but less than impressed overall. Neither of us loved our meal.
