Greenville, SC – A new dining destination, STIR, is set to open this June in downtown Greenville, marking an exciting addition to the city’s burgeoning culinary scene. Located at 214 E. McBee Ave., the restaurant occupies a spacious 6,000-square-foot area on the ground floor of the Prisma Health building, poised to welcome over 400 guests.
STIR is the latest concept from SquareOne Holdings Co., the management group behind nine other restaurant and bar venues across North Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee. This marks the first STIR location to open in South Carolina, showcasing its unique blend of seafood and steak offerings.
The restaurant’s diverse menu will feature a wide range of options, including seafood dishes, steak, chicken entrees, and a raw bar serving fresh oysters, crab, tuna, and shrimp. Emphasizing inclusivity, STIR aims to accommodate various dietary preferences, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan selections.
STIR will operate with a full range of dining services, open for lunch and dinner, and will feature a special brunch on Saturdays and a jazz brunch on Sundays. Operating hours will be from 11 a.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday, extending to 1 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 10 a.m. to midnight on Sundays. The Greenville Board of Zoning Appeals approved STIR’s request to offer late-night service until 1 a.m. on weekends on May 8, paving the way for patrons to enjoy extended dining options.
In addition to its culinary offerings, the restaurant boasts an innovative custom ice program, creating artisanal ice along with uniquely shaped ice cubes tailored for beverages. This commitment to quality reflects STIR’s overall dedication to an elevated dining experience.
The venue also emphasizes a welcoming atmosphere, being dog-friendly with an outdoor patio space designed for pets. Alongside its operating capabilities, STIR will feature semi-private event spaces suitable for gatherings and celebrations, catering to both casual diners and those seeking a more personalized experience.
STIR’s opening week will not only introduce its culinary delights but also contribute to the local community. A portion of the proceeds during the opening week will be donated to Clement’s Kindness, a charitable organization that supports Upstate families impacted by pediatric cancer.
Montario Washington, the restaurant’s general manager, expressed optimism about STIR’s success in Greenville, noting the city’s ongoing revitalization and growth. The location choice was influenced by the brand’s popularity in other markets, such as Raleigh and Charlotte in North Carolina and Chattanooga and Knoxville in Tennessee, where STIR has found significant success.
As Greenville continues to evolve into a vibrant hub for dining and entertainment, STIR aims to be a centerpiece of its culinary landscape when it opens in June 2023.
