"The epitome of white tablecloth, Southern genteel, the Merrick Inn Restaurant predates the Civil War. Here, the pecan-crusted pork tenderloin is a house favorite, while the walleye pike — served with housemade tartar sauce — is another popular pick. Swing by on Wednesdays for the more casual fried chicken night or Saturday and Sunday for a fine dining brunch experience. And of course, there’s no shortage of bourbon." - Lennie Omalza
