    Server was delightful. Food excellent & a good value. Only critique is the noise level which is high and can be distracting. Definitely recommend Blue Heron.

    Awful wine service. Manager could not deliver any bottle of wine except very poor $10 bottle of Pinot they tried to push. Unbelievable. Will never return.

    Taste, quality and variety of food was out-standing, and at a very reasonable price. Luckily we made reservations for a busy Clemson graduation time, but there seemed to be order and a plan for the staff. Our server, Jay, was very attentive, despite the restaurant seeming to be understaffed. He remained calm, cool and collected and didn’t miss a thing.

    We were so disappointed with our experience. Our reservation was for 7:30. We were sat around 8:00. We were perfectly fine with the additional wait. We sat at our table for 30 minutes without any server. We asked passing servers two different times if they knew who our server was. Each time they stated they would go check. After 30 additional minutes a gentleman took our drink order. He then went straight to take the order of a large group. He then returned to take our entree order. Our drink order was never placed. We were at the restaurant for over an hour without a drink or any service. We then decided to leave because it was nearing 9:00. Our reservation was for 7:30. We spoke to the manager upon leaving.

    Unprepared for the number of people in the restaurant. Staff overwhelmed, supper nice and accommodating. Seated 1 hour past reservation time. Some food at the table came out 30 minutes before everyone had food. Must do better.

    Service tonight was not good. Initial drink order (2 beers & 1 glass of tepid white wine) took 15 minutes. Food was good when it finally arrived.

    Blue Heron is truly a gem nestled in Pendleton, SC. The atmosphere is very welcoming, the staff attentive to the parties' needs, and the menu has something for everyone. Choosing Blue Heron to celebrate my birthday with friends and family was a wonderful for choice and I will be returning!
