    All the food was excellent. The crispy broccoli app was even better than we'd heard! The cocktails were great, too!

    We had an amazing Fathers Day at The Mercantile. We were seated on the outside patio with no waiting. Our server Dominick was fabulous!!! His appetizer & cocktail & dessert recommendations were great!! He made sure my husbands meal was made to his liking. Not too spicy. He was very attentive to our needs & was very pleasant. We definitely will be returning.

    First time here and enjoyed it very much. We had reservations for lunch on Father’s Day. We were seated right away. Never felt rushed and the waitstaff was excellent. We are off the brunch menu and all 4 of us enjoyed our meals.

    We came to celebrate my sons high school graduation at the DCU. We made a good choice. It was lively as the event had just gotten out and it was a beautiful night and walkable from DCU. The service was fantastic even thought it was very crowded. We wetre seated quickly with out open table reservation. The food came out timely. And it was AMAZING> dont sleep on the crispy broccoli appetizer. It was the best!

    There was a great variety of drinks filled with fun summer themed ones (“juice box hero“ 10/10 watermelon, lime, basil combo). The food came so quick and it was so good! Our waiters were all super nice and helpful when answering our questions about the menu. Love the merc!
