The Dutchman, a new raw bar, will open its doors at One City Plaza in early 2025 in the former Reid’s Fine Foods location.

It’s the first downtown concept for experienced Greenville restaurateur Anmar Natheer + his business partner Geno Iozzino. If their names sound familiar, it’s because they’re the team behind The 05, The 07, and The One5.

The food + drink

The duo says their love for fishing inspired the concept in hopes of “bringing the coast to Greenville.” Diners can expect customizable seafood towers with an array of house-made sauces to choose from, drawing flavor inspiration from different regions.

Behind the bar, you’ll find fresh craft cocktails much like the ones you know from The 05, The 07, and The One5.

The space

Natheer and Iozzino tell us they want the restaurant to feel upscale yet approachable + elegant but comfortable. Designers will draw inspiration from a ship with dark wood and nautical accents.

Follow The Dutchman on Facebook + Instagram to track the progress.
