    My friend and I were celebrating several occasions between us both. From the time we entered the restaurant to when we left everyone was welcoming, helpful, and friendly. Our server Erin was top notch! We never had to ask her for a thing. She anticipated our every need. The best part of the evening though was the food! It was EXCEPTIONAL! There was so much that we took half our meal home. Definitely try the trio medallions and their carrot cake. Just scrumptious!

    For over 10 years we have ate dinner at Eddie Merlot's on our wedding anniversary, and sometimes other days during the year, and have always had a wonderful evening. Unfortunately, this year didn't quite shine as usual. Most of the food was great, but the wine was wrong initially, one steak was wrong and only fair (ordered wagyu ribeye, turned out to be only a regular ribeye), and our server was pretty poor for this level of restaurant. Hoping our next time back will be like it used to be.

    We’ve been here quite a few times. This last visit was good but not great. The oysters Rockefeller were cold on first delivery, the team remade the appetizer and they were excellent on the second round. My filet was supposed to be medium rare and it came out well done. I HATE wasting food and these are controllable mistakes. All issues were quickly resolved and the team was attentive throughout those concerns. Wasn’t their best day on this particular visit but still good.

    As always we had a wonderful evening as we experienced another delicious dinner. The ambiance was perfect even though music is piped throughout, just the right volume. Our waiter was professional, engaging, and pleasant. We have eaten dinner there at least 6 times over the past eight months, and it’s always one of our favorite dining experiences.
