    Everything was GREAT! Thank you to my waitress, Rebecca for a wonderful dining experience!

    Shrimp and grits, Lobster biscuit delicious Service was wonderful Great Vibes Thank you to our waitress Rebecca!

    Peaches and cream waffles???
    Krista B.

    The space is very small, but cozy and chic ambiance. The service was mediocre. Our waitress did not want to be at work that day, and it clearly showed. I ordered the Peaches and Cream waffles and received what I swore was the Apple Cinnamon waffles. Upon letting our waitress know, she returned shortly and assured me that those were, in fact, the peach waffles. Still giving 4 stars, as regardless of what fruit they were, they were delicious, but they were definitely apple and the whole situation was weird. The waffles were light and fluffy and delicious. Overall, could've been a 5 star experience, but a few nuances.

    First time coming! The service was great overall. I wish the menu was a little bigger for more options but the food was good overall. I would come back

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon as it was very convenient to the downtown Greenville waterfalls. We seated right away and the restaurant was very clean. I ordered the shrimp and grits, which had a little bit of a kick to it and it was delicious. Server was attentive and quality of food was great. Prices are reasonable.

    Crave?? Oh my goodness I will continue to crave this place! Snuggled in down by the water on Falls Park Drive you will find this delightful restaurant! Food and drink are served with southern charm and delicious!! Whether coming in for the first time or returning, the staff greet you with a smile as if they know you! I highly recommend trying "Crave" while in downtown Greenville, South Carolina!

    Ambiance: Location is small. Decorated nicely. Short walk to Falls Park. Tight space between tables. Service: Our server, Anthony was excellent. He checked on us often and made great recommendations. My guest and I mentioned several times how helpful he was. Food: Georgia Peach waffle was excellent. The peach is sweet enough that you don't need syrup, unless you just have a sweet tooth. The chicken tenders were flavorful. I believe it was two nice strips for $7. My guest got lamb chops with grits. I really enjoyed the grits. Lamb was an alternative to the oxtails that they were out of. Chops were smoked, and I don't like smoked meats, so if smoke is your thing, go for it. They were cooked nice though! I would stick with their drinks on the menu. They have and can make what you like. However, the Tom Collins was not good to me. It's usually one of my favorite cocktails, but this one was not good. Overall, I would try this establishment again!

    Very loud and chaotic! I really wanted to like this place but was sadly disappointed. Very small portions for the price. My nephew ordered the ribs and received 3 small ones, like an appetizer. Brisket eggs Benedict was tasty but tiny. Service was scattered.

    We googled this spot and we are happy we tried it!. It was a walk away from our hotel. Their atmosphere is great, their very clean, and the service is great. We tried the eggs and brisket ( amazing! ) and we all got the Georgia peach cobbler waffles ( double amazing! ). Their coffee is great as well. Definitely worth the trying for breakfast. They open at 8a

    Chicken & Waffles

    Came here late around 9pm on a Friday with a party of 15-20 people and we had an AMAZING experience!! Service was spectacular. This is the first place I've seen in greenville with an all-day brunch menu. The perfect place to come if you're looking for a cute & vibey environment with TVs (for all of the sports lovers in your group.) There were multiple TVs at the bar and one large TV on the right side of the restaurant. I ordered the Salmon Croquettes, there was one salmon patty and one biscuit patty covered in a delicious cream sauce on a bed of grits. It was scrumptious. Other people in my group ordered wings, shrimp & grits, chicken & waffles, mac & cheese, and rib tips. Everything was seasoned to perfection, everyone was BEYOND happy with their food. Drink wise, they have a full bar here with a variety of wine and cocktails to choose from. 10 out of 10 would recommend! Can't wait to come back.

    Good service. Amazing ambiance (live jazz music). Delicious food. I will definitely be back soon to try other items on the menu! Great way to celebrate Juneteenth.

    Brisket and Eggs
    Alan T.

    My wife and I arrived shortly after opening and were greeted right away and seated quickly. Our waitress was Jade. She was very sweet and kind of quiet but checked on us often and took good care of us. I had the Brisket and eggs and my wife ordered the Peach Cobbler Waffle. Both meals came quickly and both were delicious. My wife was happy with the size of the waffle and the peaches and whipped cream that came on top. My brisket was very good and the eggs were cooked perfectly. The brisket portion was fair but I think 3 eggs would have been better. A biscuit would have been a nice touch too. Overall, a great experience! We will be back!

    Salmon croquette

    We went today for New Years brunch. Had a bit of a wait but we expected this due to the holiday. The food was phenomenal, all of the portions were a good size besides the french toast - which needed a side to go with it for it to be filling. Highly recommend the jerk chicken and waffles!

Right by Fluor Field with a fun, lively vibe. We sat outside, which was clean, comfortable, and a great spot to hang out before an event. Service was fantastic. David, our server, was friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable, and really helped elevate the experience. For food, we started with the wings (dry rub and Jamaican jerk). The flavors were decent, but the wings themselves were rubbery and a bit underwhelming, especially considering the price point. One standout though... the ranch dressing. Easily some of the best I've had. The breakfast tacos were good overall, and the chimichurri was fresh and flavorful. I think adding a creamy component would have taken them up another level. The sweet potato fries were fantastic. The chicken and biscuit was decent. The Nashville-style chicken had good flavor, but the tenders were on the smaller side, making the portion feel a bit lacking. The biscuit itself was solid. The tallow fries were also well done, and the Lefty's sauce was a nice addition. One unique touch at the end. You're given the option to send a postcard, and they handle the postage and mailing for you. A really fun and memorable detail. Overall, a good spot with great service and atmosphere, though some of the food execution and portion sizes could be improved.

While the cost is on the higher side, the service and food you get is second to none. Our server was Michael, and he made us feel welcome and took great care of us while also connecting with us personally. The dining room is quiet and dimly lit, so perfect for close dinners and special occassions. The bar and special occasion rooms are in separate rooms, so the noise and TV screens are minimal and out of the way. If you are looking for a place to go on a date, celebrate Valentine's Day, or take out your significant other, you CANNOT go wrong with Rick Erwin's. The food itself is cooked to perfection every time and the ingredients are excellent. I would highly recommend the wedge salad and the filet. Great dressing on the wedge and all of the veggies are crispy. The filet is so tender, it's like eating butter! The black and bleu addition (balsamic and bleu cheese) makes for a really nice flavor and tanginess. The mashed potatoes (and really all the sides) are family style, so there are large portions that you can share. We love Rick Erwin's and will definitely keep coming back again and again.

Because of our group size, we were assigned a team of servers, all of whom were attentive, professional, and well-coordinated.

I ordered the Kansas City strip, which was cooked perfectly, and finished with a delicious crème brûlée. The wine selection was extensive, and the bottle I chose was reasonably priced something you don't always find at upscale restaurants. Overall, it was an excellent experience that truly lived up to expectations for a fine-dining venue.

We had a large party and they accommodated easily with two servers for the whole group. The atmosphere is great, I love the decor and the polished-casual vibe. The bar is so cool (that sliding ladder is what dreams are made of), lots of TVs to watch the game without messing up the chic decor. Indoor and outdoor seating and the bar opens up to the outdoors. The staff is very knowledgeable about their offerings, particularly the tequila. However, a dirty martini is maybe not the bartender's specialty. I was asked if I wanted it dirty, extra dirty, or "nasty." I said just a little bit dirty. It came "nasty." Womp womp. But they do have blue cheese olives, which is a huge plus! The oysters are delicious. Our group got 4 dozen. However, on one of the trays, almost all the ice was melted by the time it reached our table. Also both times I've been, they forget to put little spoons in the sauces that come with the oysters, but they never forget the crackers! For the rest of our meal, I got the shrimp and grits, my partner got the tuna poke bowl, and we split a Caesar salad. My shrimp and grits were delicious, tons of shrimp, nice presentation. Tuna poke bowl was good and the soy sauce was a nice addition. I love a Caesar salad, and the flavors on this one were great, though it was served on a very warm plate which was weird for a salad. Overall, STIR has so much going for it. I really, really want to love this restaurant, but every time I go it's missed the mark on some small but important things. It's new so I think this is just one of those where you've got to keep trying to work out the kinks. Hopefully they'll get there! I'm rooting for you!

Would come again solely for the atmosphere - great indoor/outdoor bar with a lot of TVs. Came here on a busy Saturday evening. The bar is huge so there were plenty of seats available. If I could give this place 5 stars solely because of the raw chef I would! He welcomed us as soon as we sat down, he was super friendly and helped us navigate the menu. Unfortunately, both of our meals fell short of satisfactory. However, the atmosphere was spectacular!! I ordered the Salmon, medium well. It looks incredible in the picture but the inside was cooked rare. The outside edges were edible. It was a wrap once I bit into a piece of bone. As a picky eater, all of this freaked me out and I was no longer interested in the dish. The person I was with ordered the chicken piccata (not pictured). One important note is that her chicken piccata was breaded (fried?) which we both found to be a bit odd, she did not enjoy it. However, our whipped feta appetizer and parm fries were incredible!! Would come back here just for the atmosphere and a quick bite, not for dinner.
