We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Meril! The small plates style dining was perfect with a creative selection of items to enjoy. Don’t miss the upside down cornbread! The tuna bites were also amazing. And wait- the fried chicken simply spectacular. Enjoy!

This place has a fairly casual vibe. We were jeans, but others were dressed up for holiday parties. Our servers were pleasant, and knowledge regarding all of the menu items.

We started with the pocket bread, Korean chicken wings, and the meatballs. We had never seen pita bread prepared like this; it was very light and tasty. I’m not usually a fan of meatballs, but I must say these were delicious! The wings were not what I expected, but they were good. For some reason I thought they would be spicy, but they were not at all.

Them we tried the Pineapple Upside-down Cornbread and the Wise Guy flatbread. Oh. My. Gosh!!! These 2 items were phenomenal! The candied bacon really complemented the cornbread. The spices on the flatbread were perfect.

Yes, we plan to go here again.

Our uber driver who used to be a chef recommended Meril. We had an absolutely satisfying experience!!
1. Blue crab fettuccini: buttery, pinch of spiciness, fresh blue crab meat, excellent!
2. Clam flatbread: a mix of crispy side and soft center. Love it!
3. Brussel sprouts: big portion! sweet on the outside and crispy!

Stopped in for a drink and some happy hour snacks. This is an upscale establishment with an awesome selection of happy hour appetizers and wines. We chose the turkey necks and deviled eggs, both of which were delicious. The service was prompt and courteous, and the restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained. While the prices were a bit high, we found the overall experience to be well worth it.

Such an awesome dining experience. Took my team out for dinner and had an excellent experience here for the first time. The service was top notch and food delivered on another level. The appetizers and entrees were very tasty. Would recommend the BBQ shrimp and deviled eggs and for entrees you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. We were assigned two servers and they were very attentive throughout our dining experience.

Beautiful restaurant and polite servers, honestly I was a little surprised how casual everyone was especially the hostess, my wife and I were more dressed. We did enjoy everything we ordered, but I have to say I felt the main courses were lacking and could of had a bigger selection. We ended ordering more appetizers, and a pizza for dinner, where my wife and I always order two main courses. It was a little loud during our visit but they did have several large groups.

The food and service is good, but the portion sizes are small. We ordered 3 of the Pineapple Upside-Down Cornbread snacks for a group of 6, since the picture is the portion size of 1. This was my first time trying Gumbo, and it was good. The bowl is double the price of the cup.

We dined at Meril in New Orleans during our summer travels. The atmosphere was vibrant and lively, which created a fun vibe, but it did get quite noisy at times.

To start, we ordered a few cocktails, the watermelon salad, and the ribs as appetizers. We also had the upside-down cornbread, which unfortunately arrived quite late—actually after the mains had already come out. For our main courses, I had the market fish and my husband had the ribeye. The fish was completely undercooked, and when I mentioned this to our server, he said he would let the manager know, but unfortunately no one ever followed up or addressed it, so I basically just ended up not eating it, which was highly disappointing.

On top of that, the service experience was quite confusing. We had multiple waiters switching during the meal, which made things feel a bit disjointed and didn’t help the flow of the dinner at all.

Overall, Meril has a fun atmosphere and some creative dishes, but the execution of the food and the service coordination left to be desired.

Before ordering we were told that the Chef was a 2 Star Michelin Chef.
We Ordered the Wise Guy flatbread pizza and the Candied Ribs.
The pizza was amazing- the spiciness was wonderful , the ribs were “just” ok.
Desert was an apple pie with salted caramel ice cream.
Unfortunately the apple pie had no flavor at all.
Which was a let down.
The service was great and the restaurant is lovely inside.
We would still go back and Definitely worth a visit.
