    Overall very nice but our server got lost for long periods of time from start to finish. We ended up taking our dessert to go. It was my 50th bday.

    Chuyến thăm đến Rick Erwin's thật ấn tượng. Steak thơm ngon, chín tới hoàn hảo - một điểm sáng thật sự. Không gian ấm cúng, khiến mình cảm thấy thoải mái và dễ chịu. Đội ngũ nhân viên tận tâm, thân thiện, dù đôi lúc hơi chậm khi địa điểm đông đúc. Món tráng miệng hơi ngọt so với khẩu vị của mình, nhưng bù lại, sự đa dạng trong thực đơn là điểm cộng lớn. Thật sự đáng để thử!

    This place was absolutely incredible. When you pull up, they offer valet parking, which is perfect if you don’t feel like walking. There are also nearby parking options for $5–$10, which is convenient for downtown. The restaurant itself was warm, elegant, and inviting, with dim lighting that really set the mood. This is definitely a place where you want to dress up and look good. It’s perfect for a romantic dinner date, girls’ night out, or a classy evening after work. The service was top-notch—everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. After debating what to order, I went with one of their top-selling dishes: the scallops—and wow. They were huge, perfectly cooked, and very filling. The peas underneath complemented them so well. I also ordered the fried Brussels sprouts with bacon and crème brûlée, which were delicious and came in a large, filling portion. My husband ordered the salmon along with a smoked old-fashioned, and they smoked his drink to absolute perfection. The cocktails were very well done—I had a Manhattan, and it was excellent. Our host and waitress were amazing, and it’s places like this that remind you why tipping your servers well truly matters—outstanding service deserves recognition. The atmosphere really stood out, especially during the holiday season. Everything downtown was beautifully lit, the restaurant wasn’t overly packed, and we could actually hear each other talk. Holiday music played softly in the background, which added to the experience. They also have separate rooms available for celebrations and birthday parties, which is a great touch. The restaurant is located next to Clove, another newer spot downtown. The pricing was fair, and I really appreciated their $50 two-course meal option, which includes a main course, salad, and dessert—a great value in today’s economy. If you work in the corporate world like I do, you’ll love this restaurant for its peaceful, elegant atmosphere—a perfect place to unwind after work. This spot is definitely one of the reasons I still love coming downtown.

    This was always our favorite place to go to celebrate any kind of event. Last night me and my husband went for a night out and were very disappointed. Our waiter seemed more interested in giving us theatrics than service. He wanted to know both of our names, what we were celebrating, and asked other personal questions but forgot to ask-Would you like an appetizer? Do you know about the specials? This was actually what I came in for. I looked on the menu and to my dismay the one thing that I love the most wasn’t on the menu. He never mentioned it so I assumed they had removed it. After I ordered the tuna which came out to be tuna soup (Completely covered in sauce so much that I couldn’t taste the tuna) I heard the waiters around me suggesting the specials to other guests . I should have known something was off when I ordered a vodka martini and he repeated that he would be right out with my dirty martini. I corrected him and when he placed it on the table he said “one dirty martini!”I had to ask him to remake it. When he brought my husband‘s drink there was a gnat crawling around it. Now I understand why were able to get right in on a Saturday night. I’m pretty sure this will be my last time coming.

    We genuinely look forward to coming back to Rick Erwin’s every time! Our server Abdoulaye is absolutely phenomenal. He is hands down one of the BEST waiters we have ever had, he is so genuine and timely with everything he does. He also has remembered us every time that we return, which makes it that much more special. We truly adore him and he creates the perfect experience for us.
