"When Eric's doesn't have a line out the door, the servers tend to be quick with a smile and smoothly efficient, and though their English may be halting, they often are able to steer diners in delicious directions on the menu."

"As an introduction, the soups make good impressions. The silken, snowy morsels of chicken, the delicately crunchy snow peas, the fresh sliced mushrooms, and a tangle of crisp white rice noodles on top make for a lovely concert. Pearly fresh shrimp, crisp carved carrots and more float in an aptly named ocean party soup."

"How much you enjoy Eric's depends upon what you order and when you go (the earlier the better, in my experience). Certainly there's sufficient style and lots of food on the plate, at bargain prices."
