Eddie Merlot's

Service was phenomenal! Our server, Christina, had excellent recommendations and just an all around great personality. We immensely enjoyed our meal, but the service is what will bring us back. Food was so delicious! Thank you!

Better ribeye at Applebee's, sadly. When paying 69 dollars and with these ratings you'd expect the meat to be a good cut. It was not. It was prepared properly. It was seasoned well and cooked to the correct temperature, but it was tough and stringy. It was the leanest and toughest ribeye I have ever had. A simple press with a utensil or a thumb from the cook should have revealed the toughness and a visual examination would have seen the lack of fat and surplus of gristle with a big ridge right through the middle. Everything else about our experience was great. The desserts were fabulous, the rest of the food was delicious, but not $200+ a seat delicious.The service was good, people were friendly and accommodating. It was a little too dimly lit as we had to use our phone flashlights to read the menus and it was a little louder than you'd expect. Overall this place is way overrated and insanely overpriced. You can easily find better food for half the price all over.

Wonderful experience! Everything was great from our server to the food and drinks! We felt so welcomed and the quality of the food was exquisite. Portions were just right and they even offered a kids menu which was amazing. We celebrated a birthday and they gave us a complimentary dessert! We will definitely be back.

Came here for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner. The service was spectacular! We felt like we reserved the whole restaurant with the way service was. Everything from start to finish was delicious. Their homemade bread is to die for. Our cocktails were strong and tasty. I would recommend reserving a table before you go in.

I definitely recommend this place! Delicious food, great sized portions, and good/fast service. I definitely recommend trying their Mojo Shrimp and Scallops and surf and turf. I was not the biggest fan of lobster mash potatoes, as the lobsters there tasted really fishy. For cocktail drinkers, I really recommend trying berry white martini! The girl who was refilling waters and taking away plates was the friendliest out of all the service staff. The waiter and the manager that came up never asked if we are celebrating anything, but other than that the whole dining experience was 10/10. Food was the best part!

I had the calamari and the Lemon-Dijon Chicken, and both were absolutely delicious! The chicken was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The calamari was crisp and fresh, a great start to the meal. The atmosphere was very nice as well—elegant but comfortable. Overall, a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommend!

2025-Oct. We visited Eddie Merlot’s on a quiet Thursday night—party of three. We had a reservation, but it turned out to be unnecessary as the place wasn’t busy at all. There was plenty of parking right around the building, which made arriving stress-free. We were seated immediately, and our server greeted us promptly with water and took our drink orders. The service remained consistent and attentive throughout the evening—empty glasses didn’t stay empty long! Our order: Lobster Mac & Cheese 4 oz Louisiana steak (with shrimp & sausage) 16 oz New York Strip Side of mushrooms Calamari appetizer Crème brûlée Chocolate cake 1 soda The steaks were absolutely fantastic—cooked to perfection, flavorful, and juicy. The lobster mac and cheese was rich and indulgent, and the desserts were a great way to end the meal. The only small miss was the calamari, which was a bit too salty and heavily battered for our taste. The ambiance was upscale yet soothing, great for a relaxed dinner. Even the women’s restroom was a pleasant surprise: clean, well-maintained, and stocked with extras like mouthwash and cups—always a thoughtful touch. Total before tip: $200 — well worth it for the quality, service, and experience. We’d definitely return, especially for the steaks and overall service. Maybe we’ll skip the calamari next time. Bon Appétit 😋

We came here for our anniversary last night. The food was overall pretty good, though my husband’s steak was way too salty and the mashed potatoes needed more seasoning. There was also a mix-up with how each of our steaks were cooked — our doneness preferences got swapped. The atmosphere seems to cater more toward an older crowd. It’s traditional rather than trendy, which is fine, just not really our vibe. Service was okay, but there were a few hiccups. Our server had to take my phone to use Apple Pay, which felt a little uncomfortable. He also forgot our complimentary champagne toast until we reminded him, and we had to ask about our boxed leftovers because they weren’t brought back. Overall, for the price point, it wasn’t a bad experience but not one we’d likely return for.

Always nice to stop by at last minute, get a table and treated super nice and finding out you have some rewards waiting for you. $25 off! Wow. Sign up for their reward program and just give them your phone number and any money you spend, you will earn rewards. Also birthday reward which is good for few drink or even their awesome dessert. As always, awesome food and service and great ambience.

Eddie Merlot's has a beautiful ambiance and attentive service, but a few key details missed the mark for us. Tomahawk Special - Lacking Flexibility The advertised special included lobster tails and a bottle of wine, but unfortunately there was no non-alcoholic alternative offered. Even if you declined the wine, the full price still applied. In today's dining world, it felt surprisingly non-inclusive not to offer a mocktail, NA wine, or even a premium soda as a thoughtful swap. Filet Del Mar - Salty Seafood, Under-Seared Steak I ordered the filet rare and received it borderline blue. I enjoy a very rare steak, so it worked out, but they could've added more sear than what felt like 15 seconds per side. The shrimp on top was overly salty with a slightly fishy aftertaste--not what I'd expect at this price point. That said, the potatoes, crab, and sauce absolutely saved the dish and were the highlight of my plate. Green Beans - Crunchy Redemption The tempura green beans weren't as light or crispy as we'd hoped, but the wasabi dipping sauce added just the right zing to make them enjoyable. A lighter coating would've gone a long way. Strip Steak - Good Flavor, Thinner Than Expected My partner ordered the strip steak medium rare, and while it leaned a bit rare, the cook was consistent and the flavor was excellent. We both agreed it could've been cut a little thicker to really shine. Overall, it wasn't a bad meal, but for the price and prestige of Eddie Merlot's, we expected a bit more finesse, especially around inclusivity and consistency in execution.

Establishment is gorgeous! The vibes you get are old money and good food. We went with a party of 9 total - my husband takes out his team when they are in town and we booked this as a special treat! Well, the food and appetizers were perfectly seasoned, cooked, and presented. He does not drink so was not sure what to order for wine any longer; and I would think the waiter could've assisted a bit more then he did on choices etc.. as we spent a pretty penny. This is not a Commercial steak house in quality or prices so do not come here thinking it's a "deal". They have a great menu that offers lots of choices - which worked out great. Be sure to book a reservation as it was a bit busy. Recommendation - more recommendations and friendlier server that understands in most cases big parties want to chat a bit first rather then be rushed to order with no suggestions. I did not appreciate that much; and due to that sentiment will not post our servers name. FOOD is a 5 star, service is a 3, and location/venue is also a 5.

Wonderful experience. Hamburgers were hardy and delicious and the fries were perfect. Alex was did a great job as our waiter. I had no issues today and would like to come back soon.

Thanksgiving 2024, was not the celebration our family expected. The meal presented and tasted like a cafeteria. I asked if I could have a split or paid extra for a side of mash potatoes, and was denied. For the birthday dessert, server proudly presented the plate with no dessert. Our friends whom ate at another DTC restaurant had a most delicious meal for similar cost. Plus, when presenting the check, the server asked if anyone would like a take home next day box of turkey to enjoy. Corporate never responded to our email. This was unusual for the restaurant. For sure this was an off night. Prior we have dined many times and hosted a large party, 45 guests, for a wonderful evening.

We booked Thanksgiving dinner here (never been before) and everything was fabulous! The food, wine,cocktails and service were all spectacular! This is our new "goto" for special occasions. Loved everything about it.

I stopped by Eddie Merlot's for lunch on business and was blown away by the quality, service, and value. The $28 prime steak special is hands down the best deal in town--a perfectly cooked, high-quality prime steak, plus a choice of soup or salad and a side dish. You just can't beat it. Beyond the food, the service was top-notch. Kevin, the bartender, made the experience even better. He was friendly, attentive, and knew exactly how to craft the perfect drink to complement my meal. His knowledge and personality made sitting at the bar an absolute pleasure. Needless to say I closed the deal but Eddie Merlot's certainly played a factor. Nice push. Bathrooms smell great and the bar in huge and fantastic. If you're looking for an incredible steak lunch at an unbeatable price with fantastic service, Eddie Merlot's is the place to go. Highly recommend!

We had dinner for 14 people tonight and we agreed on a solid 4. What was very good: service, dessert and crab cakes. I didn't taste the steaks but people said it was worth 4 stars. Not great: My ahi tuna appetizer was just average, diced tuna thrown over some chips. I expect more from this high end place. Also, artichoke dip was on the heavy side and potatoes gratin had lots of cheese on top. The outstanding dessert was the peanut butter cup, great presentation and flavor. Mango sorbet was also very good. NY cheesecake was regular good. Overall a good experience however expensive.

4th visit this time for our 59th anniversary. Gorgeous elegant ambiance beautiful eating g establishment. Sincere friendly greeting and 10to server, Nick, over the top professional, warm, attentive to listen to the many 'wants'. Excellent dinner ~ wagu tomahawk w lobster tail..ad ons Tempera green beans and wedge salads.

Walked in to Eddie Merlot's for Happy Hour, and it's a good one! It's a bright, and open place and felt special. Their signature cocktails were yummy (and $5 off each during HH). The choices for food took a bit to decide, so we finally had to ask our server -- she advised us very well. We chose to share the Lobster Roll, and the Filet Mignon Sliders. I was craving a good onion ring, so we added an order of the Onion Ring Tower. The Lobster Roll and Sliders were exceptional, as were the french fries that came with the sliders. The onion rings were just okay -- heavy breading made them difficult to eat -- flavor was meh. I'm looking forward to returning to try some of the other things we didn't choose. This time we know that the portion sizes were plenty to share, so we probably won't opt for a third!

Went for New Year's Eve with a group of 7. Dylan was our server and he was great! He's very soft spoken so it was a little hard to hear him in the busy restaurant. Inside is way more grandiose than you'd think from looking at it from the outside. The food was really good and had a fun take on some basic dishes. They were out of king crab legs and replaced with lobster tail which was a little chewy and small. There should have been some type of discount for them being out of stock but there wasn't. Sweet potato casserole was amazing! Mac n cheese was less than impressive. Would go back again.

Came for early dinner on Sunday as I have never been. It was quite maybe 4-5 tables seated and we were only ones under 60. The hostess was a bit snooty and seeing how empty they were had WE NOT had a reservation she seemed like she may have given us a hard time. Our server Nathaniel was nice. Started off with wine and sparkling rose. Next we got the Ahi Tuna Wontons and they were delicious. We split the wedge and if you read my other reviews again no balsamic drizzle but they did have reduction and brought to us. After that it was perfect. I got the filet trio and honestly the cuts were big enough to share. Very nice cuts with different sauces - one was peppercorn, one garlic parm and one bearnaise or Hollandaise with crab, the last was my least fav- just to creamy and tad salty for filet. Meat was cooked perfectly. My guest got the filet with the shrimp and the shrimp was sadly like some boiled shrimp thrown on side. No flavor. Why not saute, grill or season? Seemed odd. We for side of Brussels and they were soggy tasteless Brussels ever, wish I got the creamed spinach. The meal Is pricy. It was $250 for 2 of us and it was just ok - not amazed by this place.

Out of town for the holiday but not a worry in my mind, because this place served up a delicious meal. I spent Thanksgiving here with my dad and although we didn't get the thanksgiving meal we enjoyed a nice cut of steak and sides. We started with the appetizer trio: bbq shrimp, crab cakes and filet potstickers. 9/10 seasoned well, fresh and flavorful. I ordered the trio medallion because I couldn't choose just one steak sauce to try. The steaks were cooked to a perfect medium rare and they were melt in your mouth tender. The peppercorn and the gorgonzola were my favorite. My dad ordered the NY strip del Mar style the andoille sausage and shrimp sauce were simply divine. We shared the garlic mash. They were whipped to a creamy cloud peak drenched in butter. We each enjoyed a cocktail. We were too full for dessert but the carrot cake looked divine. Our waitress Katy was phenomenal. So warm and Inviting. Not many want to work on the holidays, but she did it with class. She really made the experience. Great location, plenty of parking, coat check and a warm welcoming professional staff. I truly enjoyed this place and the energy time I'm in town I hope to dine here again

Is you coming into this beautiful and excellent restaurant? You're greeted by hostess and seated at one of the tables that they have which has ample room for parties and an exhibition of great wines. The food selection was excellent and the pairings were phenomenal. Once the food arrived, it was incredible how delicious and tasteful everything was and without a doubt, everything was as expected out of this world and they made our anniversary very special and we were very pleased with everyone there from the manager to our waiter and waiters assistant who always was on top of everything we needed. It's a shame it's only located in Colorado, but I would definitely come back from California just to experience this dinner again

Went here last night for a work dinner. Staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. Everything we ordered was very delicious. Location and parking are wonderful. My only complaints: very pricy, interior is a bit dated and bathrooms needed a clean. Overall I would host another work dinner here in a heartbeat.

Our family enjoyed a private dining rehearsal dinner October 17th that was absolutely magical. I wish to thank Kelly Tuley and Chandler particularly for the impeccable attention to detail and kudos also the chef and our complete wait staff.....the food was amazing, as was the presentation. I received so many compliments from our guests. Thank you again!

Second year we've ventured here for Thanksgiving. You definitely need reservations. We got the last table of four available for the day and made our reservation on September 30th. So, reserve earlier than the end of September :) This is a great place to go if you don't want to worry about prepping for, cooking for, or cleaning for the big turkey day. Eddie's offers a Thanksgiving menu with three course or if you're not feeling turkey, their entire menu is still available. A delicious wedge salad, perfectly cooked turkey with gravy, stuffing, and two sides of veggies were perfect for me. I snuck a taste of another member of my party's sweet potato casserole and it was amazing! To top off the dinner, which is a steal at $49, you get a slab of delicious cake- I selected the carrot cake. Very well done Thanksgiving meal. I have eaten here before without the holiday menu and they always deliver. Thanks for hosting us for Thanksgiving! We will come again.

I recently had a girl's night dinner there. I am such a steak lover! We made reservations the day before and I was seated right away. The interior reminded me a lot of Vegas casino steak house, like Caesar Palace . Our waiter was very knowledgeable on all the wine and menu items and recommended a few good appetizers. We ordered a lot to share amongst three ladies. Definitely try their calamari, it was my favorite out of everything we ordered. The bison is on the dryer side but still delicious.

Stopped here for lunch, and enjoyed their grilled romaine salad, with four ounces of filet on top. A delicious combo. Very attentive service. My third time here for lunch and have been impressed each time.

Made a reservation for a birthday for 2 ppl on a Thursday night to go out for a nice dinner w a friend. Decor looked like Vegas in 1990 lol! Crowd was lots of elderly Caucasian people who seemed to be enjoying a leisurely evening. For our mains, we had the bison and wagyu filets. I was traveling from the San Francisco Bay Area, California where we don't typically see bison steaks served in restaurants (we can get ground bison in grocery stores, but not full on steaks) so I was excited to see they served it here in the Rocky Mountain region. Both of the steaks were delicious and cooked perfectly to each of our liking (medium rare), but the sides were disappointing. I had specifically requested the sides be extra crispy, but they all came out soggy and bland. To our server's credit, he sent back all 3 sides and took it off of our bill. We had also ordered a shrimp enhancement to each of our steaks, but the order got mixed up and we were served 2 appetizer plates of shrimp instead lol. Again to server's credit, he took it off our bill and we had a ton of extra shrimp. But the BBQ sauce slathered all over the shrimp ruined the dish and made it way too sweet; they could go lighter on the sauce, or perhaps it's just what the population there prefers. You're supposed to be able to taste the freshness in quality plump shrimp like that instead of having it completed overpowered in sticky saccharine tar. I did enjoy the beef carpaccio appetizer! This place does their meats really on point and had very gracious service despite all the mishaps, and thus their service was duly noted so I'm keeping this place at 4-stars. (If it weren't for their service, I'd knock it down to 3-stars given how bleh the sides were -- such an important section of the menu for any legit steakhouse!) They were so kind to give us complementary champagne to start and birthday dessert and song to end. I'd still return for those bison steaks again and willing to give it another chance! Many thanks for a nice experience.

Add Eddie Merlot's to quality steakhouse when choosing in the DTC/Denver area. I made a reservation through OpenTable, asked for a booth and got a very nice one. The hostesses were friendly and let us know it would just be a few minutes while the previous party finished. Eddie Merlots has plenty of parking and the dining area is very elegant with a mixture of tables and booths. They also have a bar area that I believe is mainly used for lunch (not 100% sure!) The drinks were good in the burnt orange Manhattan and Sake Sunset. We shared the calamari and oysters for appetizers. The batter used is a little on the heavy side for my preference but quality squid and good dipping sauces. The oysters were fresh and came six to an order. They did come with different sauces to put on top. For main we shared the 32oz porterhouse and it was fantastic. There was plenty for both of us and leftovers. For sides we had the lobster mac & cheese which was good. The lobster makes it even more decadent. We also had the tempura green beans which were good with same batter as calamari. We went for my wife's birthday and had great service with Melissa H. She was attentive, gave good recommendations, and did ask about special occasion (wife does not like singing or public celebration) and brought a special dessert but did not make a fuss about it. Thank you thank you!

I returned for happy hour and sat at a table this time. While the prices have increased since my last visit, the quality of the food and drinks made it worthwhile. The bar area was very busy, but we never felt rushed. The tables are spaced far enough apart to keep the noise level down, creating a pleasant atmosphere. Our waiter, Kevin, was attentive, charming, and full of great suggestions. There were four of us, and we shared the ahi tuna wontons, filet mignon potstickers, an onion ring tower, and two lobster rolls served with homemade potato chips. Everything was well-prepared and absolutely delicious. I also tried the Sake Sunset cocktail, which was light, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweet--a unique and interesting drink. It had been too long since my last visit, and I'm already looking forward to coming back much sooner next time.

This restaurant is superb! The food, the ambiance, and the service is excellent. I've been here twice and both times I've been very pleased. My boyfriend and I ordered a steak and asked them to cut it in half and plate each half separately. We also ordered the twin lobster tails dish and ask them to plate them separately as well. We basically shared both plates so we can have a surf and turf plate. The lobster tails were so big and delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection. We also ordered the escargot and crispy shrimp and both were amazing! I also highly recommend ordering a salad with their ranch dressing which is made in house. It's the best ranch I have ever had. I highly recommend trying Eddie Merlots.

Everything is fresh testy. Highly recommended this place to everyone . Service is good too. Atmosphere good also

Went to this restaurant tonight to celebrate my birthday with three other friends I would say that this restaurant is amazing the food the weight staff the atmosphere. Everything was absolutely perfect. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone celebrating something special or if you just want to have a beautiful meal.

Hubby and I went to Eddie Merlot's for restaurant's week. Our Server suggested the wagyu beef dinner with two lobsters tails special. We could not refused the special. The wagyu was cooked medium rare perfectly, tender and melt in your mouth. The lobster tails were big and juicy. It was overcooked just a bit. We had mashed potatoes which were smooth and seasoned with the right amount of salt, pepper and garlic. No lumps at all. The asparagus were grilled perfectly with the right amount of charred and crunchness when biting into them. Eddie Merlot's sure knows their beef! The ambiance is great for a romantic dinner, social and business functions.

Hadn't been here in over a year, but this place really is solid. I had the chefs favorite with salad, and the New Orleans mixed grill . The steak was amazing and cooked to perfection. I added a crab cake and it was great! Top the night off with an espresso martini (8/10) and a crème brûlée. I am amazed there is not a line to get in, it's that good! Sean, our server also was great! Very attentive! I

Great service, staff was amazing. Your glass of water will never drop below half-full. Food was outstanding. The 18 oz Bison Steak was cooked perfectly and enjoyable, added a baked potato on the side. Toss in a bottle of Malbec and my dinner is complete. I would highly recommend the restaurant to anyone looking for a quality steak dinner/experience, Eddie Merlot's brings their A-game to the Centennial area. Enjoy!

We've been Eddie fans since going to the one in Michigan more than 7 years ago. The food is always good. Get the steak, any steak. It's GREAT! Oh yes. And the carrot cake! We went yesterday for the bar food discounts. Service is second to none. The ambiance is upscale. Love the bathrooms (clean and trendy) and the stained glass all over the property. I wish there were one in Colorado Springs! Worth the drive. Oh yes, and they offer a rewards program too.

Another great restaurant, from the Chicago dog. Let's get to it. Lobster tail cooked perfectly 5 stars Tuna tartare refreshing and delicious 5 stars Bone in rib eye absolutely fantastic 5 stars Sweet potato casserole excellent 5 stars Bread not the best 3 stars Wine and drinks excellent 5 stars Service top notch 5 stars, atmosphere 5 stars I'm looking forward to my next visit. I highly recommend this restaurant

Good option for a Thanksgiving meal. 3 courses with all the fixings, plenty in a portion for leftovers. King crab bisque was flavorful with a nice dollop of crab on top. Three layer cake was a ridiculously huge piece and full with chocolate. Lots of service staff to make sure the courses were timed well. Eddie Merlot's is ready for the holidays as they have lights, ornaments, and garlands already put up all over the restaurant.

Took my son to lunch before he returned to college. The steaks were fantastic. The staff were very attentive. Will be back.

Eddie Merlot's is upscale dining. A special occasion place and you pay for the experience and great food (it is not cheap and they are unapologetic). They are known for steak but there are great seafood and lamb options also. They wet age all their steaks and hand cut them, and they are very particular. They do have a dedicated gluten free menu with many options. I felt I had a lot of great choices with no additional upcharge, just great food. No gluten free bread or desserts. No vegetarian options that I could see except salad. The service was excellent. I really enjoyed my main course and sides. The ambience here is very nice also.

Zero stars. Will never set foot in this restaurant again. Recommend my family to join me for happy hour. Had issues with management on our order. They had attitude and blamed "policy." I have honestly never been more disrespected at a restaurant by management. No interest in keeping a customer/family coming back. No flexibility, very corporate. Food was only average. Salmon was served under cooked. Much better places to spend money than here. Flemings, J Alexanders, etc. Don't waste your time or money here.

The service and the ambiance is just perfect for a nice dinner. The staff is so friendly -- my family and I had such a good time.

The special buffets of Easter and Mother's Day are amazing! Very wide selection of all kinds of breakfast and dinner offerings. All fresh and replenished regularly. Recommend going early around 1030am for a less crowded experience. The best room of three is the main central room. Extraordinary huge pieces of art line the room and with a high ceiling the sound levels are comfortable.

Melissa was an amazing waitress! She was so knowledgeable about wine and specials. Steaks were perfectly cooked to medium rare. I wish the ambiance was a little quieter and more intimate but the food quality, taste and staff service made up for it.

Feel like Eddie Merlot's is stuck in another decade. Decor could use some refreshing and service is not what it once was We sat at our table for over 10 minutes before a person stopped by to welcome us. The drinks and food were pretty good. Just think the service is not what I would expect from a fine dinning establishment.

A group of friemds and I had lunch today at Eddie Merlots in Englewood, Colorado. I have frequented other restaurants in the surrounding area but felt compelled to write a review on this particular experience. . Our service was superb! I'm sorry I didn't get the name of our waitress who was extremely professional, efficient, and amicable. She was very attentive to Everyone's needs. The Restaurant is beautiful ....and the quality of food did not disappoint. In fact, the food was some of the very best I have experienced. Excellent taste and very nice portions Eddie Merlots will definitely be added to our list of "upscale" restaurants

Went with my husband and one other couple last night. Honestly, I expected this to be another over-priced and under-delivered fancy establishment, but I was thoroughly impressed! I'm not going to take off any stars for the cheesy decor, because who cares when the food is so exceptional, but it doesn't scream "classy" imo. A few recommendations- keep in mind that many of the entrees are either small portions and/or don't come with sides or anything. Eat the free bread (it's so tasty) and split a salad with someone so you're not angry about portions later. This is not fast food! Be patient and make conversation while you wait for each dish. It's worth the wait! What I personally ordered or tried: Parisian Lemon Drop- WOW. Couldn't resist ordering a second; it was amazing. Perfectly balanced and didn't skimp on liquor. The Grilled Romaine salad- maybe the best salad I've ever had. No joke. I'm still thinking about it The scallops and shrimp entree- both the scallops and shrimp were cooked and seasoned perfectly. I've had so many scallops at nice restaurants that weren't done correctly, but there were wonderful. You get 4 scallops and 3 pieces of large and flayed shrimp. Separating the seafood is a long, small plank of the poblano and corn rice. The rice was good, but not good enough to force into my nearly full stomach, so I took small bites and gave to my husband. The seafood was the star of that show. Carrot cake- giant and incredible!! The flavor is spot on. The layered icing is perfect. Such a good ending to a great meal. French press coffee- do yourself a favor and get this to go with your dessert! Comes with a cute tray of add ins (sugar, cream, mini chocolate chips, whipped cream). My husband's steak was great! I'm not a huge steak person, especially if it's rare at all, but I enjoyed the bite of his steak immensely! It was buttery and seasoned perfectly. Our server was knowledgeable, friendly (but not shmoozey), and went out of his way to make sure we were enjoying every bite (and sip!).

If you're looking for a nice dinner, with great food, this would be a place to try. Staff was friendly and knew the menu.

Fantastic Steakhouse in the DTC area. Excellent service, ambiance, food and drinks. The GM is top notch as well. We've only been once but this is at the top of our list now. Go check it out, you'll be back.

I was really hoping to be able to update my good review of Eddie Merlot's from a few years ago. I eat there once in awhile and have always had a good experience. But today was completely different. I had planned to meet some friends for happy hour and none of us thought we'd need a reservation. But surprise, there are only about a dozen seats at the bar and those are the only places available for happy hour - on a first come, first serve basis. I walked in behind another couple and I heard the hostess say the bar was open seating. There were plenty of empty tables - at 4:15 when I arrived - so I sat down at one. Soon the very nice and understanding server asked if the hostess had seated me. When I told her no, she let me know that the tables weren't really included in the "bar" (even though they are in the bar) so I went back to the hostess to ask for a table. She was not very friendly and seemed to enjoy letting me know that since I didn't have a reservation I couldn't sit in there. She didn't apologize or offer any other resolution to the issue other than to tell me she might be able to put me on a list for a table in the dining room around 5pm. Well that certainly wasn't going to work since they refuse to have happy hour in the dining room and I didn't want to wait 45 minutes. Soon, a gentleman named Terry Bennett, who is a manager there, came out to address the problem. He explained in a very nice way that happy hour is only in those few seats at the bar. He was very personable and empathetic - the exact opposite of the hostess. One of my friends had arrived at this point and he made a point of introducing himself to her as well. He invited us to come back another time and gave us his card. I understand that restaurants have their policies but what I can't understand is why a restaurant would turn away paying customers when there are so many empty tables. I would have personally rather had the revenue and avoided alienating customers by offering up one of those empty tables. So - to make a long story just a little longer, I highly recommend making a reservation if you want to eat at Eddie Merlot's. They don't take reservations for happy hour so I recommend heading over there about 3pm for the 4pm start - if you want to be one of the lucky dozen. The food has historically been good - just as good as any of the other similarly priced restaurants in the immediate area - and they would do well to remember that the customer is their bread and butter.

WE had initially planned to have the dinner. they had happy hour since I chose an early dinner reservation time. So we really enjoyed many things off the happy hour menu. including the Filet sliders, the lobster rolls. The housemade chips. The wontons, and their fries with 3 dipping sauces. WE were full so we got a carrot cake to go which is huge. They put us in a corner which was so much quieter than the lounge so we truly had a date night.

Service here was fast and friendly from the hostess that sat me to all the members of the wait staff that brought out my food and drink. I order a petite fillet mignon with broccoli and mash potatoes. The steak was cooked how I like, the broccoli was also good and the mashed potatoes were smooth and creamy. The meal also came with a wedge salad that was fresh and crisp with a tangy ranch dressing. A giant slice of chocolate cake finished off the evening but it was so huge that I had to get a to-go box. A good dinner for a good night out.

We celebrated my husbands birthday and enjoyed our steaks that were cooked to our perfection. Service was a little slow for us, but not enough to complain. After all, we should consider slowing down and enjoying the relaxing ambience.

Very nice establishment with very friendly staff. The bartender cherise was amazing. I loved the ahi tuna poke and crab cakes, very delicious!!! The drinks were strong and I was good with just one because of that! The craft cocktails were superb as well.

Ist timer NOT a last timer ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC . My Wife & I had the pleasure of experiencing the latest Copper Cane Wine paring dinner and are hard pressed for words to express the delight. Hats off and a bow to The Chef and his staff for preparing such a delectable dinner, presentation, and pairings. Thank you to Cooper Cane representatives for the introduction to exquisite wine. THANK YOU Mr. Keith Miller, and staff for managing a tight ship and making the evening fun, engaging, and certainly memorable. See you soon

Went to Happy Hour. Lamb lollipops for $20 were the worst lamb lollipop ever anywhere. They were substandard quality with little lamb and lots of gristle. Their filet sliders likewise contained far too much gristle. I will never waste money there again
