   House of William & Merry is simply the best place around for a special evening out. From the friendly greeting (they even remembered our favorite table) to the excellent food, wonderful food, and superb service, we always have a great time there. Ordering cocktails last night was a unique experience for us -- we usually just have wine. Their "House" Manhattan and The Perfect Pear drinks were delicious and perfectly chilled. Our server, Chet, was efficient, knowledgeable, and personable. And the food was all fabulous. Interesting ingredients combined beautifully in dishes like seared Japanese Hamachi and Prime Black Angus Deckle. We are so happy to have a restaurant this outstanding nearby and are very glad that it is small enough to maintain top quality in everything they do.

   WOW! Can’t wait to go back! I knew from the incredible reviews we wouldn’t be disappointed, but it still exceeded our expectations. The wine, food and service were all top notch. Wouldn’t have changed anything from our experience. We even got the chance to meet one of the owners on our way out. William was very friendly and passionate about the restaurant. We just found our new favorite local restaurant!

   Wonderful dining experience. Lovely waiter named Eric. We had our almost 2year old grandson. They were so accommodating. High chair. Made him a wonderful grilled cheese. Made my vegetarian husband a pasta dish. The pork chops, fish, pate were all spectacular. Other diners were kind to our grandson. The entire evening was perfect. In a world gone haywire, it was such a welcome respite: good food, civilized people, comfortable surroundings.

   Had an excellent valentines dinner at the house of William and merry! Our server was awesome in his recommendations and was not overbearing in checking in on us often. We tried their house Syrah wine, which was excellent, and HIGHLY recommend the duck wings as an appetizer. will be going back!

   Outstanding meal (as always!). Everything is top notch--service, ambiance, and most importantly, the food itself. Not cheap but you get exactly what you pay for. Try it and you won't be let down.

   Wonderful presentation, quality and creativity of all dishes. The foie gras appetizer was an unexpected gem. Both of our entrees, duck breast and rockfish, were plated with care and visually appealing. The flavor of both dishes was noteworthy with complex flavors that did not detract from the base of the dish. Each protein was perfectly cooked. For dessert, don't miss the "Tuxedo", a decadent whirlwind of both flavor and textures.
