Using Restaurant Week as a backdrop, one of Greenville’s most popular and highly rated restaurants –– Kitchen Sync –– announced it is beginning construction on a second location. The announcement comes eight years after opening its first location on Laurens Road.
The second Kitchen Sync will be located at 2420 Hudson Road in the Brushy Creek Crossing shopping center in the space formerly occupied by Dragon Den.
Owner and longtime Greenvillian, Kevin Feeny, said, “People have been asking us for a long time to open a second location closer to Greer and when this space came available there was no doubt it was perfect for us.”
The location at the intersection of Hudson Road and Old Spartanburg Road has many surrounding neighborhoods but not an abundance of casual, neighborhood restaurants with high quality food and drinks. This was a similar situation to Kitchen Sync’s original Laurens Road location when it opened in June 2016. Today, the Laurens Road corridor, now referred to as “Midtown”, is fast becoming a Mecca for restaurants.
With on-site parking and a soulful neighborhood vibe, Kitchen Sync offers a downtown-quality casual dining experience without the hassle. Customers of Kitchen Sync’s second restaurant can expect the same great menu offerings, exceptional hospitality and a unique blended value business model that strives toward a greater good.
“By investing in our employees and the community we serve, everyone succeeds,” explains Feeny. “Indeed, the S-Y-N-C in our name speaks to our business model and the intertwining of our values of compassion, community and stewardship into our soulful neighborhood restaurants.”
Examples of Kitchen Sync’s greater good:
- Blended value business model that values people, planet and profit.
- Investing in quality of life for employees with offerings like five-day work weeks, health benefits, and flexible scheduling.
- #1 independently-owned Green-certified restaurant in the U.S. for eight years running.
- Nurturing strong relationships with community social enterprises, such as Jasmine Kitchen and Soteria CDC.
- Kitchen Sync founded and funds the KISS FOUNDATION (Kitchen Sync Stewardship) that invests and participates in select community stewardship initiatives.
Once complete, the 3,500 sq. ft., facility will seat approximately 100 guests indoors and 25 to 30 outdoors. In addition to building an outdoor patio for dining, Kitchen Sync is adding 500 sq. ft. to the interior. A cozy new bar will seat approximately 15, and a comfortable blend of tables and booths will be available inside the dining room.
Anyone interested in sampling the Kitchen Sync experience at the 1609 Laurens Road location will have a unique opportunity during Restaurant Week, August 15-24, 2024. The Restaurant Week offering may be found on the Kitchen Sync website at kitchensyncgreenville.com. Full menus and additional restaurant information is available on the Kitchen Sync website.
Local companies LMG Architects and Cely Construction have been retained for design and construction of the new restaurant.
