Copper River Grill

This place rivals Cheddar’s down the street, yet this place is unexplainably more expensive. Their food is not necessarily better, yet noticeably more expensive. You could almost clone their food and their atmosphere and call it Cheddar’s. However, they charge a good 10−20% more than Cheddar’s. For that reason, I just cannot justify another visit to this restaurant when I know Cheddar’s is a lot less expensive.
They do have really good house salads with very tasty sweet croissants. Be sure to try the bacon and onion salad dressing. It is served warm and was the best part of my meal.

Effing horrible, went to bar to order because it was crowded bartender messed up my whole order first the food was for dine in she said to go that was wrong then they put almonds on my salad which I specifically said not too then my steak looked damn near raw wtf .im getting ready to go to freaking Afghanistan and I wanted one steak meal and they completely fucked it up. I don’t know how they do business in Greenville but this is shitty for real. Freaking listen !! I want to give it no stars but I had a beer

My first experience here. I just finished driving ten hours and wanted to get some quick drinks and food before hitting the sack. Everything was quick, but not necessarily great. The Yuengling was on happy hour so I chose that. One pet peeve of mine is serving draft beer in a glass that has been resting on Jupiter and is –276C in temperature. She brought me the Yuengling and Antarctica was floating on top. I generally prefer my beer without arctic debris and penguin hatchlings, but I guess that is how they do things here. I wanted something quick so I got the potato soup and it was subpar. It was greasy and there were as many potatoes in the soup as there were in a house in Ireland during the potato famine, which is to say, minimal. The bartenders were nice and attentive but the food needs help. Also, please don’t bring my beer to me with the stipulation that I must wear NASA approved gloves to handle the 0 Kelvin temperature glass.

My family and I eat here regularly. I usually get the excellent club sandwich with fries. Good food, great service.

Wow! What a horrible experience. After be seated we waited another 5 minutes for the high chair. Then we waited another 5 – 10 minutes to see a waiter… no not ours the table two tables down who was cashing out. The next table over on our right at least had their drinks during the wait, to place their order. Meanwhile a couple was seated at the table to our left, and their waitress was there taking their order within 5 minutes. I could tell the experience was only going to get worse, so we left quickly – never to return again. I guess the empty parking lot at 12:15pm (lunch) should of been my first clue. Poor service yields poor crowds, and eventually poor crowds will shut down a restaurant.

The salad was huge but tasty perhaps a few too many onions but the chicken tenders were the most tender I have ever had and they alone get the 5 stars

Prime Rib «Voo-​Doo!»
In town for work and was recommended to eat here. Was told it wasn’t anything special but it was reliably good food.
Looked through the menu and things looked good, other tables had plates that look pretty good as well. Decided to order the Prime Rib «Voo-​Doo». Came perfectly cooked and seared with Cajun seasoning. Topped with crab stuffed shrimp and some sort of sauce. Holy crap, I eat steaks frequently all over the country and this steak was definitely up in the top couple. Usually that doesn’t happen at a chain.
I would recommend that steak to anyone.

I recently enjoyed the filet mignon with loaded mashed potatoes and a salad. The food was cooked just right and served promptly with a smile. The restaurant is clean and has an open feel to it. Located near Haywood Mall, the area is a bit congested at times, but you would never know it inside the restaurant; as it is an oasis of simple culinary pleasures. I would recommend this restaurant.

I gave 2 stars because the waitress was a very nice young lady. As for the food it’s nothing spectacular. This place always have a crowded parking lot. So we decided to go after leaving the mall. I ordered the blackened salmon sandwich with loaded mashed potatoes. The salmon was greasy with no flavor. The loaded mashed potatoes was soupy. There are several restaurants on Haywood Rd that offer better tasting food.

Just imagine a burger so big and delicious that it looks like something God himself put on that plate. That bitch burger «bigfoots mother and law» was that burger. Not only was the patty big, these dudes put fried shrimp and ham on it, you heard me right, friend shrimp and Ham!!! I made it through half the burger and new I was in trouble but then I thought to myself WWJWD (what would JJ Watt do for all you South Carolinians). So I decided to take a moment to collect myself and kick in to my Texas roots and knocked that burger out! I don’t think I’ll be the same after eating that burger but I did it for Texas!!!

Made reservations for the family on a Sunday afternoon. Our party was six. When we arrived (5 mins early) the restaurant was nearly empty but we had to wait for our table to be set up in order to accommodate us. I thought reservations were made so your table would be ready when you arrived! Apparently not here.
Once seated we were greeted by a friendly server/​waiter. He gave us our menu, introduced himself, answered our questions and gave us time to make our selections. He was pleasant & helpful through out our dinner.
Lots to choose from on this menu so it took us several minutes to decide. In the meantime our waiter took our drink order. Three of us ordered Specialty Drinks. Although they tasted OK. The drinks were only a few degrees above room temperature and you could barely taste any alcohol. All three of us added ICE to our drinks. When it came time for a 2^nd round. I ordered a draft beer while my daughter passed & my wife switched to soda. A glass of White Zinfandel also came to the table @ room temperature. Wht Zin should be served chilled.
We ordered two Pizza’s as appetizers. They were about 10 in pies. One with just Cheese and a second with Sausage and Mushrooms. Both were very good. Better than many of the local Pizza places in and around Greenville.
Our dinners consisted of Chicken Wings Described as OK.
A Cheese Burger, also OK
Chicken fingers. I was told were Very good but not as good as Chick Filet.
A BigFoot Mother in Law burger described as Excellent.
Mac & Cheese with Fried Shrimp, again OK. Mushy pasta.
A 14 oz (I opted for the extra 2 oz @ $ 1.00 extra per oz) Prime Rib that was cooked perfectly to order. Unfortunately it didnt live up to the $ 20.00 Plus price tag. It was good, but not $ 20.00 plus good.
The french fries were nothing special. In fact they were a bit dry and overcooked.
The Fried Red Onion rings were good but a bit greasy. You have to expect that from fried food.
Oh nearly forgot. The house salads were VG and the Caesar Salads were Good but generic.
The portions were large and we wound up taking a good amount of food home which the kids finished later that evening.
We passed on Desert. Everyone was full.
All in all we had a nice dinner. The drinks could have been colder, the Prime Rib a bit better and the Mac & Cheese less mushy, but there were enough positives and plenty of food to keep most diners happy.
Had our table been ready, the prime rib more tender, & our drinks chilled, I would add a ½ star.

Food was great, service was excellent. Prices reasonable, nice menu. What more could you ask for? I’ll be back!

Salmon was amazing. Caesar salad with croissant was a nice touch. Bar staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

In town for a couple days visiting. Copper river was next to my hotel. Loved it. What can I say. Had the sirloin steak and fries. It came with a salad that was loaded (they warned me in case I wanted anything removed) I took it as it came and loved it! Everything was good. prices very fair.

Service, even sitting at the bar, lacking in hospitality or alacrity. Almost left but then things brightened with someone actually realized I was there. The food was still mediocre. Not sure if it is worthy of another chance

Great homemade pizza. All the food coming out of the kitchen looked great. This is on my Greenville must stop stops.

Copper River on Haywood is great! From the bar to desert it was a great experience with Awesome food and the best service! Cheese fries, fire frilled pizza with smoked Wings and finished with a delicious desert! Perfect for a Mother’s Day Treat!

We went for my birthday and we were not impressed. I felt like we paid to much money for average food. We have not been back since and would rather go elsewhere for America food with better prices.

This place is cool, good service, decently priced and great food. I would come here again and it’s worth a try if your in the area.

Underwhelming experience.
Host stand was polite but more concerned with shift change than in new guests. Server greeted promptly. Crab cake dip was good. Not enough bread to use up ¼ of it. Waited 30 min before asking for silverware to try to finish the rest. I wanted to see if she noticed it was missing. It took 34 min from the time ordered to receive a grinder (which my guest did not like) and the Bigfoot mother-​in-​law burger (that was mainly onion straws and lacking of flavor). Also there must be a no pink rule that I was not made aware of for medium burgers. Cause this was cooked ALL the way through. Sat across the aisle from 2 copper river chefs who were having dinner. Both failed to notice that they arrive after we ordered and finished their meal before ours arrived. First and last time visitor.
