GREENVILLE, S.C. — In Greenville, the Ottaray Raw Bar and Taphouse on Laurens Road has shut down, with Nov. 8 as its final day, after a run of under two years.
The owners said sales had not met expectations and that they were proud of what they had built. They thanked employees, diners and neighbors in a social media post announcing the closing.
The kitchen leaned on Southern seafood plates such as she-crab soup, lobster rolls and po-boy sandwiches, in a corner space at an older shopping center on Laurens Road. Its name referenced a downtown Greenville hotel, also called The Ottaray, that was later torn down.
The same storefront previously housed The Warehouse at Midtown, which mixed a food hall with live music and lasted only a short stretch, and an outdoor sports shop before that.
