First time visit on 1/4/2026
Waitress was super attentive.
Atmosphere with holiday decorations made it feel cozy and memorable.
Food was fresh and delicious. Chicken tenders tasted better than rival big chain chicken. Amazing breading coming from a picky eater.
Seating was immediate.
Will definitely be back.

Intended to go to another restaurant but they were full for lunch. Decided to try Merrl’s because it was close by and didn’t have much for expectations. Food honestly knocked it out of the park. Nice place, good service and again really really solid American food. Only thing I could have done without is country music but that’s just me!

We really enjoyed this restaurant and particularly the great service provided by our server Celia. She was so fun and helpful! Our food was great and we will definitely be back. I enjoyed the gluten free pizza, very good!

It was busy when we walked in around 4 pm, which is a good sign, and we were able to get a booth. They also have a nice spacious patio. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was fresh, and fries were crispy and hot. We will definitely be back to try more.

Always amazing food with great service! Fun place to watch games on TV, date night and a place to meet with friends. Another bonus is they allow dogs on their patio! Ps get the marshmallow dip with the sweet potato fries; you won’t regret!

Sophie was lightning fast and her service was second to none. Nothing but happy customers at our table of 18, which is not common. Cant wait to come back.

Great casual place to go for great tasting food. Went on a Monday afternoon. Not overly busy. We sat at the bar. Service was fantastic. She was great and gave us excellent recommendations. We had beer on tap and wine with our meals. Empty plates were always quickly picked up. They have a patio, not yet open, tho. They have Thursday live music.

It was a crowded Saturday night when we walked in. Riley immediately greeted us with a smile and sat my friend and I at a two top. She was super friendly. Our drinks and apps were awesome. I recommend the Peppermint Espresso Martini…Yummy! We brought 3 more friends the next week for Christmas cheers and Riley recognized us. She remembered our orders from a week before. Riley is just awesome!

Waited a while after opening to try them out. It’s got a sports bar ambiance. Very loud. Packed with TVs. Very bright. Even though they weren’t packed, it just didn’t feel like a comfortable place.
Food is OK. Basic selection of standard items. Nothing special. We’ll prepared and quickly served. Had the Minnesota Charcuterie. Very disappointing and wish I saw a picture first. Pretzel was great. Bacon jam was 10/10 amazing. But the menu described it as an assortment of meat and cheese. They give you literally just packaged, sliced kielbasa and packaged cheese curds. Not worth $19.
Beer selection is good. We heard cocktails are good, and maybe it depends on who you get making them, but these were not cocktails. Got an Old Fashioned. It was literally just ingredients poured into the glass. Not even stirred (let alone stirred over ice and strained). Tasted like a pre-made mix and was very sweet. My partner’s gin cocktail was the same way. Took a taste off the top and it was pure gin.
Service is good.
We also have tried coming around 9pm before and found all chairs up on tables and lights off, with a few employees cleaning up. Hours posted online say open til 11pm, but I guess if they’re slow they just close up shop.
Overall a serviceable restaurant, but a really mixed bag and nothing to make you really want to come back.
