Best Seafood Restaurants in Clemson / Central

We showed up about 45 mins early to hang out at the bar and have a couple of drinks before dinner. The hostess was very nice and notified us when our table was ready. Our waiter was OUTSTANDING! Food was great and the dining room felt cozy and welcoming. In the past we were Larkins people, but after they changed locations and the entire vibe of the restaurant we didn’t care for it anymore. This is definitely our new place! Loved the experience!

We had a wonderful evening at Firebirds! The ranch rings were a delicious start to the meal, and while my steak was initially prepared incorrectly, the staff quickly made it right and brought me the perfect steak. The service was speedy, and we were ready to leave about an hour after arriving, which was great. It was our waitress's first night out of training, and she was very attentive, doing her best to provide excellent service. What really stood out, though, was the teamwork. Another employee stepped in without hesitation to assist her, refilling my drink as soon as it was empty and offering support wherever needed. I also noticed a female manager who was hands-on, helping the new waitress without any negativity—just genuinely understanding and supportive. On a busy Friday night, their team dynamic was impressive, and the positive atmosphere really left a lasting impression on me. We’ll definitely be back, and I’m excited to see how this team continues to grow!

We just keep coming back. Everything is always consistently top notch! The service, the cocktails, the appetizers, the meal; everything was just phenomenal as usual.

We had it all - wine, appetizers, main course, dessert and coffee. From the first bite to the last, our Xmas eve dinner was simply outstanding. We sampled a large portion of the menu - steaks, scallops, red snapper, lobster and pasta. We loved the mushrooms with goat cheese and scalloped potato side dishes. I will make a recommendation that is not to be missed - even if you don't have room - order the butter cake. We've had this dessert each time we've dined at Rick Erwin's and it seems to get better and more decadent each time. I would be remiss not to mention the superior service as well. One of the gems of Greenville!

Everything was wonderful!! Our table was ready when we arrived and we ordered appetizers and dinner and everything was delicious. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
