    Great tacos and a great value. Mexican decor and a local feel. Service was good and quick.

    I don't understand all the 1 stars. We were seated immediately. The waitress wasn't super attentive or interactive, is the only reason they didn't get a 5 star. The food was really good. The guys in the back that helped bring out the food were sociable and friendly. Loved the volcano bowl presentations. Sonoran style flare. Our fav!

    Green Chicken Enchiladas, salsa, strawberry margarita.

    I am from Arizona and I miss authentic, Sonoran Mexican food. This is the closest I have found, and they have the best salsa in the upstate, in my opinion. There salsa verde is the best I have found. The charred tomato and spicy tomato salsa are fantastic as well, though I am allergic and should not have had any! But I'll be fine. I highly recommend this place and will be bringing my husband, sisters, their husbands, and niece/nephew asap! PS: the chips are so good!

    Hair in our food.

    We ordered delivery to eat while watching Clemson vs. Iowa State play football. Shortly after my wife began eating her food she raised her fork to show me food hanging from her fork by a hair. I asked if she was going to be able to eat the chips, queso, and guac. She handed me a stale chip. Disappointed to say the least. I normally don't negatively review a place without making contact and seeing if they will make the situation right. In this case that would mean a refund for that part of our order. However, after 15 attempts to call the restaurant, all during advertised hours of business, and all unanswered, I wanted to make sure they know about this issue.

    I had a poor experience at Habaneros. My soup arrived cold and my ribeye steak was too fatty.

    Pretty decent Mexican out in the middle of nowhere. Two sides, restaurant side and bar side. Nice outdoor seating area. We have been quite a few times and it never seems to disappoint. Margaritas are decent, server is always excellent. I really like the Carnitas Dinner. Fried pork with refried beans and rice. My wife gets the chicken quesadilla. We have sat on both sides for lunch on weekends and dinner during the week, always a good chill vibe and local crowd.

    Grande Burrito

    Huge burrito and dollar tacos on Tuesday. Very good food. Don't let the outside fool you. Staff was friendly and fast. I definitely got my money's worth.

Unfortunately Rick Erwin's missed the mark on its primary assignment. The restaurant is nicely decorated in the style of a steakhouse. Dark wood paneling and shutters adorn the walls with pleasant dim lighting shining down from above. Service was strong with a team serving our table. We were greeted immediately and offered water and a drink. However, we were not offered bread, which is unusual for a steakhouse. Our appetizer of Buffalo Cauliflower was just ok. The breading had a subtle after-taste, which may have been from the batter being undercooked. And the buffalo sauce was not very prominent. So the dish was not as strong as I would have wanted. For our main course, we ordered the porterhouse for two--the signature dish at any steakhouse. Unfortunately, it fell short. When the steak arrived, it lacked the expected presentation; it had been grilled rather than broiled and was served without the usual butter or sizzling finish. That missing sizzle wasn't just visual--it showed in the flavor. A proper porterhouse should have a rich, salty, buttery finish, but this one was surprisingly bland. Just as disappointing, instead of being presented as the centerpiece of the table, the steak was served on a plate that we were apparently expected to eat directly from. It felt odd and took away from what should have been a standout experience. Overall, this was a below average experience for a steakhouse. We will try it again down the road since the choices near Clemson are limited. But Rick Erwin's should really revisit what it is trying to be and then decide how to be that.

    The service was very good in spite of a busy lunchtime and a short wait staff. Our server, Jordan,…read morewas a pro and balanced the tables well. It was graduation day, so the restaurant was getting hit with those who attended first session, like us, and those who planned to attend the second session. The lunch special is a really good deal. Three sushi rolls for $15.95 or two for $12.95. Many of the rolls are cooked, fusion rolls, but there are a few raw rolls too. Be aware that here, the spicy tuna roll is minced tuna and not pieces of tuna. I have always felt that the minced tuna with a hot sauce was likely older tuna and this was a method of salvaging it rather than tossing it out. We did eat a few pieces with no ill effect, but with the concern in mind, and the texture, I did t finish the spicy tuna roll. It was good flavor wise, but had I known ahead of time, another choice would have been made. (If only I had read my own Yelp review from 8 years ago!) Miso Soup or Ginger salad is included with the meal. I had the ginger salad. It had twice as much of the creamy Ginger dressing than any of our party of four wanted, but we all ate around it. (At least I'm consistent, this was also in my own review from 8 years ago. Should've read my own review!) The sushi is good, we ordered several nigiri options. It is a clean restaurant and pleasant. Who would have ever thought that here "in little old Clemson, SC" we would have a successful sushi restaurant that has now been here for several years?!!!

    The service was horrible. Our waitress never came back to check on us and left our drinks empty…read morebefore we even got our food. The chicken was flavorless and took minutes to chew one piece, and the steak was raw (completely pink). When I went to pay for my food, I tipped our server $1 (which I would consider kind considering how awful the experience was) then another server proceeded to ask if that was all I was going to tip. Highly recommend NOT coming to this restaurant.
