Quality, exceptional service, and an unparalleled atmosphere have made Eddie Merlot's one of America's great steak houses over the past 20 years. Eddie Merlot's is an homage to the man and his love of a great steak, a great glass of wine, and a good story.

We pride ourselves on our prime-aged beef and scratch kitchen. Our chef selects each steak for the optimum proportion of marbling and texture before hand-cutting and seasoning the steaks to your specifications. From sauces to desserts, we develop recipes to create a truly unique experience for our guests. And, while you enjoy your meal, you'll be treated to the one-of-a-kind service we call the "W.O.W. Factor."

We welcome you to Eddie Merlot's—we want you, our guest, to have nothing but the best, which is why we go to such lengths to serve you the exceptional prime-aged steaks upon which our restaurant has built its reputation.

    A beautiful Sunday dinner with a perfect view. Erin, our server, was amazing!! All of the staff we encountered were very polite. Many complimented our family and were very sweet to our two young daughters. This was not our first time here, and it won't be our last.

    I’ve been to Eddie Merlots many times before and this was by far the worst experience I’ve had. Food was very overcooked

    We have an annual get together at Christmas every year at Eddie Merlot's. We sit in the bar area and look at the holiday tree. We told our server we were there for a leisurely dinner and he honored that. He didn't rush us at all and coursed our dinner as such. He made great recommendations and helped convinced me to trg the elk chop. It was fantastic. Everything was great until the end when we were told that parking was no longer validated. That had been in place since the restaurant opened and has been a differentiator from other steakhouses. That was disappointing.

    Last visit, I waited 2+ hours for lunch! And it wasn’t crowded! I want to love this place but I can’t…. I am here a lot because it is convenient to my office. But enuf is enuf. There is an inconsistency of quality from meal to meal; sometimes the salad has blue cheese, sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes I get avocado sometimes I do not. The crab bisque is now lumpy and the ocean Cobb claims to have lobster, but it’s been absent the 20xs I’ve ordered the salad. The ambiance is tired, menu uninspired. That’s forgivable if you mind your Ps and Qs in the food. But alas, that isn’t happening and it’s time for find a new lunch spot.

    We were there for almost 3 hrs, took much longer than normal past visits at restaurant. It took over an hour to get nonalcoholic beverages to table of 4. I got my Prosecco after an hour of wait but my other guests did not get ice tea and coke until asked other server to please help.

    My family and I had gathered here for a milestone celebration. We checked online to confirm dress code which is more like business casual at the very least. However, once we were sat another large table was placed next to us with graphics all over their clothes, tennis shoes, hoodies etc. I was VERY taken back as I thought we were attending a restaurant that was a bit classier. One of the folks in our party was elderly and could hardly walk. When we checked with Valet they said the only way for her to get in was to walk up both sets of steps. We asked if we could use the back ones since there weren’t that many and we were told no. Once inside I complained to only find out we could have self parked and taken an elevator. This information needs to be VERY clear on the website and the valet team should really know about this option. It was very disappointing. Food was average at best. I think other steakhouses in the area are much better especially for the price. This was our first time there and I’m sorry to say we will not be returning.
