   Went out for dinner with the girls in January. We were sat in the front of the restaurant which was very cold from the doors opening and closing all evening. It got very crowded with people at tables and standing in the doorway waiting for a seat. I had to climb over someone’s jacket on the floor as I was leaving. Service was fine, not overly friendly or special. Food and drinks seemed overpriced for the quality. The $14 espresso mocktail tasted like chocolate milk on ice. I then asked for a San Pellegrino and received a $10 750ml bottle without warning. Meatballs were cold and the white wine was not chilled. Tuna tartar and burrata flatbread were great. Mediterranean salad was pretty good. Cute spot for cocktails (and instagram photos if you’re into that) but I’m not eager to return anytime soon. I would, however, return to check out their red wine and steak/seafood selections if a convenient opportunity presented itself.

   I had a good experience today at 220 Merrill. I have been to this establishment several times, and every time, I had a good experience. Shannon was my server. He's attentive, polite, and an all-around good server.

   Had a fabulous time at 220. The service was great. The food was fantastic. We ordered sea bass wraps for an appetizer, and they were fantastic. The salmon and short ribs were wonderful too. It's a great place to go for a special occasion or just to enjoy a great dining experience.

   We went for Sunday brunch and got there as they opened. We were seated immediately and ordered the banana fosters pancakes (so good) the filet tips, omelette and coffees. Everything was delicious! It’s a swanky vibe without being pretentious. Shannon(our server) was awesome! He was there whenever we needed him. Would definitely do brunch there again!
