Eddie Merlot's Prime Aged Beef & Seafood - Burr Ridge

Food is always great...however second year in a row celebrating my birthday where we experienced a large amount of coffee grounds in our coffee. Last year it was handled graciously and we were not charged for our coffee or dessert. This year no offer to comp the coffee and found out the dessert was free anyway due to birthday celebration. Other steak houses have great food so not sure we will hurry back in light of the way things were handled.

Great meal. Scallops were cooked perfectly and the peanut butter dessert was just awesome!

even though its a steak house more pasta or vegetarian options should be available

Outstanding service...as always. A relaxing evening, great food. Consistently delicious food. Love this place.

Birthday celebration
Twas awesome
Best of the best

Beautiful place to celebrate my nieces graduation! Service was outstanding!

Fathers day

Bruce is a top server at Eddie Merlots and we were pleased to have him wait on us ! We started with the Caesar salad and for our entrees we both enjoyed a bone in filet! Everything was excellent as always!

I want to like this restaurant but after our experience yesterday I doubt we will go back. It was strange... the manager seemed to constantly be looking at his phone, there we groups of servers chatting (some complaining about guests), all the while there only seemed to be two servers and busboys working the large room. While our server worked hard different things were forgotten, probably because he was one of the few running around. I just feel like for these prices you might as well go to Gibson’s and have a more polished and better food/selection experience

Our server, Brooke, was excellent. The meals were also excellent.

Brooke was our server and as always, she is an excellent server! She knows how to balance timing and getting the the food to the table! We really enjoy her! We started with a Caesar Salad and for entrees we both enjoyed the Cedar Plank Salmon. (always an excellent choice!) We also enjoyed the Creme Brûlée! We will, of course, be back!

Stellar food and service. Alex was on Fire!!!

It's a great place for a casual dinnerin the bar area. Also a great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary or any special occasion . The staff is very friendly and attentive to your needs.

The people next to us were LOUD ... I’m not paying these prices to hear about the personal life!

Wonderful food, wonderful experience. It is so nice to have an upscale restaurant that is not hard to get to. This is our go to restaurant for any celebration. Very classy.

Delicious meal with great service! Will be back again :)

The meal was outstanding as and so was our service. We requested our favorite server, Geoff, and, once again, he did not disappoint. Everything was on point. Wonderful experience.

Another exceptional dinner at our favorite restaurant!!!
Always a treat to see our EM Family and be taken care of so wonderfully! Ray does his best to spoil us despite the teasing he gets from my husband. Thanks for putting up with him Ray! Nick is always wonderful and makes sure our table is cleaned off quickly and always has some funny things to say. The other waiters, Alex and Geoff, Bobby and Bruce are always so friendly and make sure to come by to say hello. The hostesses are fabulous and always so sweet and welcoming as soon as we walk in. And, of course, Kevin and Mike are the greatest Managers around!!! You guys deserve a raise!!!! You are all special people and we love coming to EM’s, not only to eat at this fine establishment but also to visit with all the wonderful friends we have come to know!!! ❤️

A special occasion place - anniversary (our case), special birthday, perhaps engagement. Outstanding food, and very attentive service. Because we called and told them it was our anniversary, the provided a complimentary creme brule for desert.

We will definitely return, just not on a weekly basis.

one guests entree was very light on food. Not enough to satisfy hunger for a light eater.

This was my second time this week at Eddie Merlot's. This meal was not at all enjoyable.
It took over 1 hour to get my meal served to me. The restaurant had very few customers tonight.
The food came and was not hot. It must have been sitting on a counter waiting to be pickeds up for a while.
The bill for the meal got a mixed up.
Mike Rufo was not there and that might make a difference. When he is there things seem to be run correctly.
My server was Kris and I do not recommend his skills at providing the food on time.

I would give 3.5 stars if I could, rather than just 3. This was our second time there. The first time was a better experience in general. This time there was no energy in the restaurant. I think they forgot to put music on. And the food quality was off. Opening crab cake had shells in it. My crab and corn bisque arrived lukewarm. That said, the wedge salad was good, our creme brulee was delicious, and our steaks were cooked perfectly. Good drinks. The best part of the night was the service. Honestly, fantastic service, from the manager to our server, Mark.

It was wonderful having our dinner here on Friday night and getting to see some really fantastic people who we consider like family. The filet and lobster tail we had was delicious and melted in our mouths. A favorite of ours, is the side baked potato with all the toppings or the creamed corn. An absolute must is the crab and corn bisque....to die for! Thrilled to see Kevin and learn that he is feeling much better and back to work cause the restaurant is not the same without seeing his happy face. Our outstanding waiter Ray, once again, never disappoints us and always treats us like royalty by making our dining experience wonderful! I’m going to have to figure out a way to sneak him home so we can be spoiled everyday! Love this restaurant and the wonderful people here!

Excellent food and service. Our server Geoff was great!

Eddie Merlot's excels in their customer service, menu and wine selection options! From the moment you walk through the door you are welcomed and treated like family. Highly recommend a visit, especially if celebrating a special occasion!

Great dinner and a very nice server Niki. Always love coming here! Mike was very welcoming and made sure our meal was to our liking. Missed Kevin and looking forward to his return as he always makes us feel like family and our visits special!

Kids running around the bar and restaurant and no one did anything

Great service. Delicious sea bass, salmon, meatloaf & scallops. Not able to get a drink at the bar while waiting because the bar was full of diners. As well 1 bartender, 1 barback for the size of the restaurant likely not enough. Will return. All good!!

We selected the lounge area, as the chairs are very comfortable and the atmosphere is relaxed. It was a busy night, so the noise level was very high. You can order from both the Dinner and Lounge menu, so we selected the Tempura Green Beans with Wasabi Sauce and the Barbeque Shrimp, which are always delicious. The guys were impressed with the Yellowfin Tuna Steak, which was perfectly seared and rare. My friend's favorite comfort food is the Triple Prime Meatloaf, which was once again stellar. I selected the New Orleans Mixed Grill, which was also perfectly cooked. Even though it was busy, our service was fabulous. I would highly recommend.

It is a nice place, on the expensive side. The waitstaff is outstanding, and you never feel rushed. They have a great wine list, with prices to match.

Chris was our waiter. He was SUPERB!!! Will definitely ask for him again when I return.

We we're celebrating a birthday and we all enjoyed the wine, food and the desert which was bananas foster done at our table.

We had a great dining experience at Eddie Merlot’s. J. D. was our server and he was excellent. We started with a Cesar Salad, we both had the cedar plank salmon and it was delicious. Another fine dinner at Eddie Merlot’s.

We went to Eddie Merlot's many times and they always deliver as expected. Drinks were excellent, steaks cooked the way we ordered them, very attentive service. We will go back.

Very good, Good food, great ambience, would recommend. Go there regularly

We were a party of 9 and the service was spot on! Thank you Bruce. Great Food and a perfect location for a birthday party or a quiet dinner.

Everything was perfect!! Great food and service

Our table service was impeccable. We had a little bit of problem with getting seated even though I had reserved through Open Table. We waited about 10 minutes past our reservation time even though there were plenty of tables available. It was somewhat baffling.

The food was delicious...especially the coffee after the meal! Our server was very attentive and professional.

We were originally seated in the bar area. A patron waiting for carry out didn't have an inside voice. We asked to be moved. Our server moved us to the outer dining room where we had a wonderful meal. That you Geoff. You went out of the way throughout our dinner to make it a great experience.

Reception was friendly and welcoming. Food was excellent ... the Dover Sole was tender and fresh with a great flavor. Wife had King Crab special which she enjoyed. Salad (wedge) was outstanding. Side of potatoes au gratin was done very well.
Service was a little spotty ... waitress was kind of aloof, entrees came before we could finish our salads.
Overall. we enjoyed our dinners and will come back again ... I want to try the steaks.
