    My boyfriend and I decided last minute to go out for New Years Eve, so I found Meriwether’s and we were not disappointed! Amazing food and excellent service! We’ll be coming back fairly soon.

    Meriwether’s is one of our favorite restaurants. Excellent food, attentive service, nice wine list. We are so lucky to have this local treasure less than 2 miles from our house!

    We were celebrating a birthday on New Years Eve it was put on the reservation. No one acknowledged the birthday. The food was okay the Salmon was bland the steak special was thick steak with gravy on top. Not worth the money. I hadn’t been there in years definitely did not live up to the Landry standard. On the bright side our waitress was exceptional.

    Christmas Eve dinner, food was excellent. We were a little disappointed that we were not told that we have to ask for bread, found out after entrees had been served. It was a little slow waiting for the appetizers but once they arrived, food flowed at a steady pace after.

    We have dined at Meriwether's many times without incident; however, Saturday was not a pleasant experience. Our waiter was super chatty and although we asked not to be rushed, we didn't mean super slow service. We had to ask that the service be sped up. The teacup bread was delivered before our orders were taken. The teacup bread used to actually be baked in a teacup; however, they didn't appear to be. They appeared to be rolls that were just stuck into a cup and also were extremely overdone, especially on the top. When our orders were finally taken, we discovered that there were no vegan options. Two in our party of 8 were vegans. They ordered the veggie stuffed ravioli, only to discover that there was cheese in the filling - not indicated on the menu which we reviewed before making the reservation. Also, all pasta (even angel hair) was ridiculously made with egg, so that was not a vegan option. We would not have chosen Meriwether's if we had known this. They didn't even offer to make a veggie platter, just let them order a VERY small plate of asparagus. My fish (mahi, mahi) with dynamite option (supposedly crab crusted, was overcooked and had only a little bit of crab. The rice I was served was under cooked and absolutely flavorless. I ate only the asparagus on my plate. Three at our table ordered coconut shrimp entrees. Two were delivered along with everyone's food, the third wasn't delivered until most were done or almost done eating. Manager's excuse - they had to remake the shrimp which were over cooked and the kitchen was short one chef; however, the shrimp that was delivered was also extremely over cooked. The service was also not good. Beverages were not refilled timely. A coffee request had to be asked for several times. Although the manager removed the over cooked fish from our bill and gave others a 'service credit' it really wasn't enough to make our experience better. The manager also appeared annoyed at our complaint.

    Went for reunion with high school classmates. It was slow to get our food. The clam chowder was excellent, but my friend ordered the French dip and never received the Auju. The salad I feel was over priced but the steak in the salad was delicious.
