    We love sitting in the bar area at Eddie Merlot's Indianapolis. Its got a good vibe and my wife appreciates the option to order off their special bar menu. This visit, to celebrate our sons birthday, was enjoyable and the food, as always, excellent. Thanks to Catherine for providing exceptional service on this visit.

    We enjoy Eddie Merlot as it has become a nice go to place for us. We celebrated my wife's birthday last night. We always enjoy the quality and tastes of the food, but last night, the chef did an exceptional job. My wife's salad was a beautiful display and the ingredients blended perfectly. My prime rib was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. Not too much nor too little seasoning. The side dishes were all spot on. My wife and I each commented on the ride home, how this was the best meal that we had ever had at Eddie Merlot's. Wait, why was the entree brought out 30 seconds after my wife got her salad? Of course the usual apologies. It was a quiet Tuesday night. No rush, but here was our entree and my wife had taken one bite of her salad. I felt bad for the waitress. Yes everything but the timing of the entree was perfect. I'm not the chef, but timing is everything in life. We really like Eddie Merlot. We''ll be back. I wanted a perfect evening for my wife and not to have her decide between eathing her salad or a wonderful sea bass.

    Service remained outstanding - waitress was very attentive and caring. Only minor item is that the french onion soup was not quite hot enough but taste was superb.

    Eddies is always great! We had shrimp cocktail, jalapeño potatoes, filets, and ended with a chocolate martini. Everything was delicious. Thank you.

    My salmon had a very fishy taste. I have had salmon here before and it was very good. My girlfriend had a bison filet and it was just okay. The sweet potato casserole was less than desired (Aspen Creek is much better) and the brussel sprouts were not good at all. The bottle of wine was good and the crème brûlée was good. Not what I would expect for $285.00.
