    Everything was great except we didn’t appreciate the hostess telling us we had a 90 minute eating time limit before we even were seated. I wouldn’t waste your time offending your guests in the future. As it was you weren’t able to serve four courses in 90 minutes.

    This was my second time having brunch at 220 Merrill, and it was the perfect place to take my mom for Mother's Day! Although all of the food was delicious, we particularly enjoyed the red velvet pancakes and chicken wings. The Bubbly Bar made the occasion even more festive. Our waiter, Zayn, was fantastic! The outdoor seating and ambiance is also great.

    If I could give this restaurant no stars I would. Absolutely terrible service and food. All of our meals were cold, no server came back to re fill waters and another round of drinks. My entire party ate and I was still waiting for my meal. We received our bill and we were charged for wine that we did not order. Asked to speak to the manager Marisa and she made an already terrible experience worse. It was brought to her attention about the wine, food and service. She did not care to make the experience better. All she did was say it’s my fault about the wine I did not order. She then proceeded to give me attitude about all of my concerns that night. I have never encountered a manager who is this rude to customers. I honestly will never come back to 220. Extremely overpriced, bad service, bad food and terrible management.
