We first visited Eric's San Jose in Columbia way back in 2004 when we were in the area for the Masters. We were so impressed, we came back the next year. So, when I found out that I had tickets to the Masters, a visit to Eric's San Jose was at the top of our "to do" list. This time... More

I ate at Eric's on a Tuesday night and the parking lot was pretty full which is normally a good sign. I was seated quickly but the booth was filthy and the floor had water all over it, which I almost slipped on twice. I ordered a vegetarian plate and asked for nacho cheese sauce in place of the guacamole... More

We had a great meal at Eric's on an impromptu visit to Columbia. The restaurant was large, but divided up for an intimate, casual feeling. The margaritas came in several sizes so we split a large between two adults. The salsa is making my mouth water as we speak ... So good! We ordered two different kinds of enchiladas and... More

Spacious, well designed place with outdoor tables and indoor wooden bar. They consistently have friendly, fast staff and good, Mexican food. Reasonably priced, especially compared the other, smaller Mexican restaurants in the area.

At first glance Eric's looks to be a great restaurant. It is usually packed, is in a good location and often times has live entertainment. But the food is mediocre, made with cheap ingredients and comes in small portions. One reason that Eric does such a great business is he caters to the students (e.g., discount coupons are readily available)... More

Decent Mexican food at a great price. Great salsa for the chips. It's a good place to go for a quick lunch.

I ordered the chilli rellanos and I received a plate with ground meat and melted cheese. I asked the waiter where was the chilli and he said "we only give a little piece of pepper". Buried in the center of the plate was a 1" piece of green bell pepper. The chairs and table were filthy. Never again!

This place is pretty typical- the decor is a little outdated and some of the servers don't speak good English which sometimes causes a delay in getting exactly what you want BUT the food is good, plentiful and cheap. This place is also good if you are taking a group as they can accomadate large parties of people.

Simple cuisine with little fanfare. Quick service. Ok place to meet your mexican food craving. Very large margaritas. Bar has 12" tv's with blurry images and difficult to see.
