Merrill’s on the Waterfront Reviews

This venue was exactly what we were hoping for! The food and staff were incredible, and the venue offered a comfortable space for a large group of people. Many of our guests commented on how nice it was to not be "stuck" at their table since there was plenty of standing/seating room by the bar, upstairs with games, outside, and in cocktail hour space, yet you were never far from anything. Merrill's has everything you could possibly need for a wedding. Our coordinator RJ was awesome and made sure everything was perfect. Wish we could do it again!

RJ is amazing! A few months after the wedding we ran into a bit of a problem. Our photographer failed to tell us that our photos would be permanently deleted from the gallery after only 90 days, so we had no photos. I reach out to RJ to see if the staff took any pictures of the decorated venue and he sent back several of our professional photos that he saved. Such a life saver! If you're looking for a place that really takes care of you, it's Merrill's and RJ!

Merrill's was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding rehearsal dinner!

We reserved the upper deck and had it all to ourselves with a personal bartender. The waterfront view was beautiful and peaceful. The rates were extremely competitive, and virtually no minimum charge. We had less than 25 people. So for a smaller group, it's hard to beat this place and the quality was amazing.

We worked directly with Krystol and she was incredible. Extremely responsive to emails and phone calls, and catered everything exactly to our specifications. The food was wonderful. Service at the restaurant was amazing. The appetizers never stopped, until the main course was served. We even had a few guests show up late, and they still made them a full course meal for no extra charge.

Would highly recommend this restaurant!

Not only are the event spaces beautiful but everyone there is absolutely wonderful, with all the uncertainty with covid (we booked with them last minute as a plan C cause everything else didnt work out) the manager always responded to my emails quickly and gave all the information I needed. They decorated beautifully, way better then we ever could of and were very understanding when we did want to change something. The food was delicious and the service was amazing.

We had our evening wedding shower at Merrill's and it was the best experience ever! From the moment we scouted the venue, to the actual day of the event, it was such an easy and pleasant experience. These days, its difficult to find people in the industry who care and are eager to help, we feel so lucky to have found and worked with such an amazing staff! Things were straight forward and organized, responses were prompt, and the staff did everything in their power to execute to provide us a magical event! Shauna was so kind and had excellent attention to detail when we met with her in preparation for the event. Tyler was amazing day of event, he checked in throughout the entire night to make sure we were happy and things were going smooth. The staff working our event were also amazing. Coming from a type-A girl, you should absolutely trust these two! Thank you again Merrill's for providing us the event we always wanted, I will absolutely host events here in the future or recommend to others!

This was a gorgeous venue with food and atmosphere that doesn't disappoint. What made our event perfect was our coordinator, Lauren. She has an eye for the small details and brings experience and opinions to the table without being over bearing. We couldn't be happier with the way our wedding turned out!
