    The Easter Buffet was fantastic! Something for everyone on the buffet including crab legs and fried oysters! The $35 each price point was definitely worth it! We will be back again to try the Sunday brunch menu which is ala carte and offered each Sunday during the summer months.

    Thank you so much for the kind review, Terri! We look forward to welcoming you back for Sunday brunch this summer!

    Enjoyed looking at new menu choices, though we went back to tried and true entrees. Good service after initial confusion about server assignment. Quiet, especially for a Friday evening. We will be returning to check out new entrees.

    We were going to see a movie at Compass Entertainment which is where the Meridian restaurant is located inside. We decided to eat there so we could just walk around the corner to the movie. The service was great, the food was very good and the prices very reasonable. It is not an extensive menu but there should be something on it for everyone to enjoy.
    Meridian RestaurantResponded on December 9, 2024
    Thank you for the glowing review, Aaron! We’re so glad you had a great experience at Meridian Restaurant. We’d love to welcome you back before your next movie night!

    Great Sunday after church lunch! We started with the crab dip and then had the dijon salmon and fish & chips with a side crab cake! And for dessert, we had the lemon pie which was delicious! Our server was attentive and helpful with the menu selections. We will be back again!

    Where to start? I truly do not to give a bad review on our local eateries but..... No one greeted us...we had a reservation. A surly bus girl slammed about and groused to everyone...staff, diners, bartender. She chased everyone about with aggressive gestures. Our "meal".....fish and chips...they forgot the chips and it took them 15 minutes to bring them to the table, by then fish cold and frankly badly prepared. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with Korean sauce. Chicken suspiciously undercooked, sauce very tasty, included chips obviously sitting around, undercooked and cold. We felt like we were in a Seinfeld skit. Our server, Stacy was very sweet and tried her best but the bus girl was chasing her about and hindering her efficiency. What a weird night
    Meridian RestaurantResponded on November 19, 2024
    Thank you for sharing your feedback, Merrill. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced during your visit. We strive to provide a welcoming and high-quality dining experience. We also understand how disruptive the behavior of the busser must have been and will address this with our team to ensure better coordination and professionalism in the future. We're grateful for your kind words about Stacy, and we'll be sure to pass along your compliments to her. If you're open to giving us another chance, we would love to welcome you back and provide the experience you should have had the first time.

    Crab dip was wonderful. Always a nice option for Sunday lunch as there are not many places open in the Northern Neck on Sunday.
