    We enjoyed a fantastic evening dinner here at Merlion once again. Our server Jessica, took great care of us at just the right moments. Try a Champagne Martini while chatting with your partner. I definitely have my favorite dishes here. But everything on the menu is incredible. The attention to detail makes Merlion very special; etched wine glasses, rose petals on the table, personally lit table tops, and real linen tablecloths. This does not go unnoticed; these are details that you don't find practically anywhere else. But the Thai dishes are the real stars; excellent, flavorful, creative, and spicy. We absolutely love it, and Merlion is a stellar standout in Seabrook.

    First time here . Food was excellent. Staff was very attentive. Never got low on refills or trying the entrees. Even asked us what we had not tried so we could sample. Have o.ly been to one other Brazilian steakhouse before but this one far exceeded our expectations..

    My wife and I and our son and daughter-in-law enjoyed a very nice evening. We had the CRAB, SPINACH + ARTICHOKE DIP dip for an appetizer which was delish. My wife and I split the Snapper Hemingway and each had the Wedge salads. My son had the redfish and daughter-in-law had the shrimp brochette. We were all very pleased with the food. Our server Ashley, was VERY attentive and kept refilling our bread and waters nonstop. We were celebrating my wife's birthday an we were very happy that we chose Landry's!
