    The atmosphere and service were very nice and brunch on the terrace was great this season. However, the portions are too much for brunch, so it would be nice to have a smaller menu with smaller portions. I would definitely visit again.

    My husband and I went for my birthday, I had only been once before. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel special and were so incredibly kind. Food was wonderful and the complimentary valet parking was an added bonus!

    The Merrick Inn never disappoints from the moment you walk in until you leave. You are always welcomed. Grouper fingers and fried banana peppers are great appitizers. Filet medallions were prepared as ordered and were delicious. Overall, a great dining experience!

    We went for Sunday brunch. Everything was fantastic. The food was delicious. I had the Eggs Benedict with potatoes and my husband had the Crab Cake Benedict with potatoes. Everything came out in a timely fashion. Our servers were fantastic. We will definitely be coming back. I would love to try the Chicken and Waffles and Sausage and Gravy with Biscuits. My mouth is watering already!!

    Ordered fried chicken to go, did not realize for $29 there were no sides. Biscuits and gravy were served cold.
