Eric's Reviews
To have the anticuchos that the menu says.
Serve the texan burger in a bun and not in a whitw bread.
Perhaps because my expectations weren’t too high, it might have been easier to exceed my expectations. Enjoyed the gumbo and angel hair pasta dish. Very generous portion that partly went to waste.

Eric's is a restaurant noted for its great drinks, exceptional service, and huge portion sizes. The setting is perfect for a lunch meeting. Many reviewers found the service to be phenomenal, attentive, personable, and exceptional, with specific praise for the bartender and chef. Orders can come fast, sometimes delivered via robot.
The menu offers a wide variety. Standout dishes mentioned include Eric’s Burger, described as the best ever tasted, and the beef short ribs over polenta, called a genius combination that is rich and perfectly balanced. Other enjoyed items are the large meat lover’s flatbread pizza, Caesar’s salad, chips with queso & salsa, a smoked turkey club sandwich, Palak Paneer, and a huge raspberry sorbet. The house lemonade is bright and refreshing, and the fries are enjoyable, though one reviewer suggested a longer fry for a crisper finish and another found them heavily seasoned with pepper.
Some dishes received mixed feedback. The halal chicken curry was disappointing due to cold rice and overcooked chicken, though the naan and curry had good flavor. A pasta dish had promise but was let down by nearly raw, thin-sliced onions instead of caramelized ones. The crème brûlée was noted as a bit “bready.” A minor complaint was the unavailability of brunch on a Sunday afternoon. Overall, most reviewers plan to return to try other options, citing the great customer service and memorable experience.
