The experience was well below subpar. The food was woefully bland, but the service managed to make an already disappointing meal considerably worse. From the blasé reception at the front desk to the bewildered and visibly frustrated waitstaff, nearly every interaction was an exercise in frustration. We were a party of 11 and were initially given just five menus. When I asked for menus for everyone, the hostess stared blankly at me before explaining that they simply didn't have enough. That set the tone for the evening. At one point, a server repeatedly asked who had ordered the shrimp. When no one responded, rather than making any effort to clarify the order, they simply dropped the plate in the middle of the table. Water service was equally absurd. When several guests requested sparkling water, the server poured three glasses and then abandoned the carafe on the table without identifying which glasses contained sparkling versus still water. We had to ask, and I ultimately poured water for the rest of the table myself while the server stood by the kitchen door watching. Even the simplest requests for missing cutlery and plates—yes, we were missing both—were met with painfully slow responses. The pacing of the meal was disastrous. Three guests had finished eating before others had even received their dishes. Most orders were incorrect, and the food was so uninspired that virtually no one finished their meal. What made the experience particularly remarkable was the complete absence of urgency, attentiveness, or even basic hospitality. The staff seemed confused, indifferent, and occasionally irritated by the very notion of serving guests. Terrible doesn't quite capture it, but I've exhausted the words I'm willing to devote to this experience. My advice? Avoid this place entirely. Or perhaps they should simply put a Denny's sign out front so guests can adjust their expectations accordingly.

In the past, we have been very happy with any restaurant that Emeril has been part of. Unfortunately, this was not one of them. The food was really below par and the four of us were not happy with what we had ordered. We had the deviled eggs - very salty and too much dill, the gumbo - basic flavors and not warm, bbq shrimp- did not seem to be barbecued at all and came out gray and just tasted off. We ordered the Caesar, and unfortunately, the waitress did not seem to understand when we asked for no anchovy on top of the salad. Not sure if she knew what an anchovy was. Doubt very much we’ll be going back sorry to say.

The only problem we encountered was that the players club app was not working and it was chaos before they figured out how to handle it. I was sent to get a new card because the restaurant staff was unaware of the issue. The ineptness of the staff to figure out how to handle it ruined what waa a very nice breakfast

Girls night out. Perfect choice. I gave it 4 stars overall because we were seated a 1/2 hour after our reservation. However after we were seated our server was great. We got some small plates and shared. Plenty of food for us.

We were excited to try Meril as locals. The menu was interesting. It reminded me of a college cafeteria. Little of this. Little of that. Gumbo came out cold the first time, Luke warm the second time. The pizza reminded us of frozen flat bread pizza. The burger was dry and similar to what you would get a sports stadium in the general concession food stand . The best part was dessert. The once cream was cold!
