    Waiters did their job but without giving the warm welcome and attention one would expect from this type of establishment. I travel a lot and frequent higher end establishments monthly, so I am well aware of the type of personable service usually given. I noticed this at other tables as well. I could tell it is just another job to them. Unfortunate, because the meals were very good.

    We participated in the Copper Cane wine dinner. The food was very good, but it seemed like the pairings were off by one wine. We started with a rose as the welcome wine and it had no food paired with it. Then, they paired a Chardonnay with the first course, which was a watermelon salad. They paired the second course, a crab stuffed shrimp, with a Pinot Noir and they paired the third course, duck, with a Cabernet. The rose would have been great with the salad, the Chardonnay with the seafood and the Pinot Noir with the duck. Even with the strange pairings, the food was excellent and the wines were awesome.

    Celebrated my friend's 80th Birthday by having dinner here. Our meals were excellent. Steaks were cooked perfectly to order. The Brussels Sprouts with Bacon had Amazing flavor. Our server was very good. Thank you for providing an excellent dining experience.

    We love Eddie Merlots for special occasions. We went this year for our anniversary. The restaurant staff was all aware of our celebration and went out of their way to make us welcome. The food was outstanding from the appetizers to dessert. The shrimp cocktail featured huge shrimp. Our main courses included perfectly cooked steak. For dessert I had the carrot cake and couldn't come close to finishing it. We will definitely be back.

    The food was delicious and so were our drinks. We ordered the filet del Mar and the 8oz filet with citrus jumbo shrimp. Everything was cooked properly. The sides are shareable so we ordered the jalapeño au gratin potatoes. They were very good and had a little kick. Easily shared between 3 people to have one portion each. Our server, Chad, was great! He was energetic, helpful with suggestions, and was timely in checking on us throughout the dinner. I will say the AC unit was broken which made me give an overall rating of 4 stars. I would highly suggest this restaurant.

    We were celebrating our anniversary and every staff member made it memorable! We sat in the bar, which we like, but it was noisy. The food was superb. Thank you, Eddie Merlot, for making our dining experience special. We'll be back soon!

    We were disappointed for the first time - we’ve been coming here for years. Something was very different and seemed “off”
