220 Merrill was amazing. My fiancé took me here for my birthday and it was such a great experience. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the whole place feels very fancy and upscale.

It is pretty expensive, but you’re definitely paying for the quality — the food was that good. They have mocktails, which I loved, and the food is halal. The meat was cooked perfectly and full of flavor, and the cake was sooo good.

Overall, it was a special, memorable experience and totally worth it.

Dinner at 220 Merrill turned out to be one of those nights where everything just worked. I ordered the 220 Burger, the Sweet Spicy Calamari, and a Mini Lobster Roll, and every dish was seriously enjoyable. The 220 Burger was juicy and flavorful with the special sauce and melted cheese making it taste more elevated than a typical burger. The Sweet Spicy Calamari had a good crisp and balanced sweet and spicy flavor that kept me reaching for another bite. The Mini Lobster Roll was fresh and buttery, and paired really well with the overall vibe of the place. The atmosphere felt lively and upbeat with a classy, modern setting that makes it fun for dinner with friends or date night. The staff were friendly and kept things moving smoothly even when it got a bit busy, which made the whole experience feel relaxed. I would definitely go back next time I am in the area for another solid meal and maybe a cocktail or two.

11/2025 – Drinks – 1/5: Not impressed with the Old Fashioned, and the Secrets cocktail tasted way too sweet and artificial for my liking. I wouldn’t come here just for the drinks.
Food – 3/5: The calamari and mac and cheese were pretty good, but the salmon didn’t measure up. On the bright side, portions were big and the food looked great.
Atmosphere & Service – 5/5: Loved the chic and welcoming vibe. Staff was super friendly and our food came out fast. Good spot for a quiet dinner if you’re short on options.
Heads up: The menu at the restaurant didn’t match what was posted online, and no one told us about happy hour even though we arrived at 5pm.

Overall great experience, all the food was delicious, the crème brûlée cheesecake was the highlight of my evening. Everyone told me to try the calamari and it was so good, definitely lived up to the expectations. I will say the salmon and yukon potatoes were under seasoned, not much flavor to them, the side vegetables were good though. The atmosphere was fun, very refreshing. The staff was super helpful and knowledgeable.

220 Merrill is definitely a must-visit restaurant if you’re in town Birmingham.

Used to be a club, lost its cool, owner changed couple years ago, did a good job, not just the vibe created by the well-decorated environment, but also the menu (good collections of American/Japanese/Italian items) and the food, oh my, every dish here tasted so good

The Birmingham Salad is a must, the grilled shrimp and caramari was amazing, not just freshly cooked but the seasoning was OMG so good. The Wagyu Meat Balls were also non-debatably delicious, the texture of the meat ball with rich Wagyu flavors, you must have it.

Onto the main dish, the miso was not just covering on top of the Seabass but well marinated, in the way didn’t overrule the freshness of Seabass, with the kick of ️ few slices of chilies, the best dishes I’ve ever had,

Dined here for dinner for the 1st time for my husband’s 40th birthday. It didn’t meet the high expectations based on the reviews provided by others.
Pros- We were seated immediately. However, we went on a Tuesday so it wasn’t busy.
Our waiter was very pleasant and was always easy to get a hold of.
The 24k desert was amazing. The portion was big. It was presented beautifully.
We started with wings. The sauce it came in was tasty. I just wished the wings had a bit more flavor. It was good but it could be better.
Drinks were strong but I enjoyed them.
Cons- My husband was quite disappointed with his food. His salmon was dry. He barely ate his potatoes.
My lamb chop meal came with 1 broccolini. My husband had asparagus with his meal but somehow he had asparagus and broccolini. I’m assuming it was meant for my plate. The ball was dropped big time on that.
Seating was tight so having an intimate dinner would be out of the question if you go on a busy day.
The rice I received with my lamb chops didn’t compliment it. Plain yellow rice would be better. The eggplant seemed extremely out of place and wasn’t cooked well, texture wise.

Very fancy and expensive restaurant! However, note that they do NOT serve Baked Alaska anymore even though it is there on their menu online which needs to be updated. That was what I came for and it was very disappointing. People were nice and very nice interior. The Make A Wish Sundae was big and was delicious with the brownies and ice cream definitely tasting better than any grocery store ice cream I usually get.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Birmingham! I’ve been here several times, and each experience had been great! The staff is top notch, they really take care of you here. Shoutout to Jen, Amanda, and Tammy for always bringing it! I had my birthday brunch here last year, they gave me a free dessert! I recently tried their Happy Hour, and everything was great. There are lots of cute drinks to choose from, plus appetizers as well. They have oysters, sushi, salads, and more so there is something for everyone. Parking is easy too as there is a parking structure behind the restaurant, the first two hours are free. Highly recommend checking 220 Merrill out!!

The server was so awesome and helpful with any questions our group had. The location and the decor was nice. I personally thought the food lacked seasoning or any flavor that would have me come again. It was just ok. I heard positive things about the French toast but didnt try them my self.
