    Good food. Quick service. No matter the time the service is great. Nice staff (Pedro and Francisco)were awesome. The food is a decent price. My family and I go for the nachos.

    Very clean place. Service was good. Burrito Mexicana was just so so. I would choose something else if we ate here again.

    The food here is always delicious and reasonably priced! I love that they have tamales as well. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

    The food was pretty bland. As if they didn't season it at all. The salsa was just okay.

    Do they serve horchata here?

    My wife has given up because every one we've had uses the thick fries and we like the thin fries in our Californias, so now she just orders a carne asada burrito.

    Let me preface by saying I don't typically write restaurant reviews unless the place is absolutely…read morefabulous or horribly bad. Let me also say that I am the consummate "foodie", my life has been driven by my passion for all types of food. When I dine, I try to go into the restaurant with no expectations, so you can pretty much trust what I am telling you about the experience. With that being said, we had just moved to Greenville a few days before and decided we needed to treat ourselves after the week of moving and unpacking. We decided on The Rickhouse, notwithstanding the fact that my first name is Rick! Anyway, we were sat immediately, and were approached quickly by our waiter, Christian. In short, Christian was fabulous throughout the entire meal, even considering the fact that it was only his first week on the job. He certainly has a flair for waiting tables. We ordered drinks and I have had a fair amount of Grey Goose dirty martinis in my life and let me tell you, the bartender knocked this one out of the ballpark. One of the best I have ever had anywhere! We ordered an app, the Chef Crab Dip and it was wonderful. Not too crabby, perfect blend of cheeses and pita chips that I am pretty sure are house-made. I had the Chicken Cordon Bleu which was absolutely out of this world! I got to sample the other two entrees at the table, which were the Garlic Parm Chicken Pasta and the special that evening, which was a bacon wrapped Filet Mignon topped with a bacon jam. Both of them were also to die for! We didn't have dessert as we were stuffed already. The bill was $189, which I didn't consider bad as we had an app, three entrees and six drinks. While some might consider that a lot for dinner, I'm also the guy that doesn't bat an eye at spending $600 for a dinner for two at a gourmet French restaurant. Anyway, I can't recommend The Rickhouse enough. Everything from start to finish was just about as perfect of an experience as you can get at a restaurant! I just hope our next visit will be as wonderful as our first!

    When I drove in to the place, I was very close to turn and run. :) I am glad I did not. Nicely done…read moreinside, good bar area, good seating areas, nice decor. However, the best part was the service. For the course of a dinner at least four times service staff stopped by and asked if everything was to hour satisfaction. It was, the shrimp and steak appetizer was up to par, the ribeye steak was cooked just as I ordered it. Reasonable menu at the bar, they even had Kentucky Trace allocated bourbons - I had Eagle Rare. Got to give it to them - really nice place.

Pricing matches large city restaurants but is justified for the right occasion I started with the tortilla soups . presentation was over the top. Sadly the tortilla slices were excessively abundant. The broth was just warm. Condiments added were a wonderful white cheese. A light sour cream. Avocado and dried pepper for some spice. Tacos were beyond great. The fish taco was beautiful to look at and the taste was outstanding. The fish was fried in a light batter, not at all oily. It tasted like it was never frozen and fresh from the sea. I mistakenly also order a steak taco. The fish taco would have been enough. The steak taco wasn't much to look at but the meat was tender and tasty. Tacos were served with a street corn that matched what you would have in New Mexico Margaritas were top shelf in taste and the dried lime gave it a special appearance Aside from the soup everything was a ten (soup was good just too much of too much)

    Beware if you make a reservation here. We had a confirmation for a party of 14 and just days before…read morethe party, the restaurant reached out and tried to enforce a limited food and beverage menu, a fee, and all other sort of contingencies that are not expressly listed on their website. I now have to make other arrangements at the last minute which is troubling when some of my guests are from out of town. Again, they do not honor their commitments and the communication about expectations/fees was nonexistent. Horrible experience. Beware!

    Was in town for a soccer id camp with my 16 year old, on way out of town found this place from…read morereviews. Atmosphere was that of a fun college dive bar. From the parts I got to see inside was small table seating around the bar. We got lucky to sit in at the outdoor covered patio seating which was great minus perhaps some outdoor heaters to warm it up a bit. Service was good overall. Servers were fun and helpful. Service a bit slow on our drink refills but the food running and table bussing was fast. Food was great, wished I had taken pics to share. Menu consisted of a good selection of apps, sandwiches, burgers and sides. Everything we tried was great. Chicken nachos were awesome, wish they had been a bit bigger but the topping portions was perfect and the taste amazing. The Cuban and fried pork chop sandwiches were again great and the spicy sweet potato fries were so good. Potion sizes were good and the food tasty. The nachos and spicy sweet potato fries were my faves. While probably not the place for young families, this was a hidden gem and fantastic find. Not really for those in wheelchairs as it is tight getting through the bar area, but there was a small ramp I recall. Bathrooms could use some work, about what you'd expect at your local dive bar but only a single stall and could be cleaner. Highly recommend this place.

    Stopped in for a quick bite and brew. Service was friendly and attentive. In a casual pub…read moreatmosphere. Ate a pastrami Reuben, which was good. Everything came out fresh and hot. Would definitely come back here again Follow me on Instagram and yelp @noodlesoupr
