    The meal was delicious. One in our group had surf and turf, another had steak Frits and I had scallops with butternut squash risotto. All tasted amazing!

    Wonderful dining experience. BTW we didn’t realize it but Valet immediately in front of restaurant is included in the meal. We had a wonderful filet! The vegetable sides are family style, plenty big enough to share with 2-3 people. Our server, Abdoulaye was great at helping with menu selections including the excellent Au gratin potato’s & asparagus. We had a fantastic apple butter cake with ice cream for dessert! Will spend $100+ pp depending on course selection & beverages.

    My wife and I enjoyed our 9 year anniversary at Rick Erwin’s. Our waiter was Preston. He was one of the best waiters I have ever had. Very professional, communicated really well, and his timing on service and asking how things were was impeccable. We didn’t even have to think about asking for something, Preston knew what we needed before we did. He was 3 for 3 on the food recommendations as well. He never led us to something we didn’t like. Every single thing we bit into was another moment of joy. I will ALWAYS come to Rick Erwin’s when I visit Greenville. If Preston’s available, we want him! Fantastic job man, you need a raise!!

    I love Rick Erwin's. It reminds me of a classic Chicago Steakhouse; delicious high-quality food, top-notch service, and comfortable ambiance. I took guests from out of town here, and they raved about how much they enjoyed the dining experience. If you're entertaining clients or guests, or if you yourself are coming in from out of town, put this restaurant on your must-visit list. The locals already know. You won't be disappointed!
