My husband found this old school restaurant that was established in 1933 with high Google ratings…read morethat was conveniently located on the way to the Rialto Theatre where we were headed for a concert. So we tried it. Merichka's serves good food with good service in a non-fancy kind of restaurant. It has various dining areas and a small bar. The room we sat in was nondescript with not one decoration on the walls. The multiple ceiling fans were running so I froze all throughout dinner. I didn't get our server's name, but she provided good service and was engaging. She always came back to check on us. The other staff we encountered was thorough in delivering food and removing dirty plates. We started with cocktails, a bourbon neat for him and an old-fashioned for me. My husband enjoyed his bourbon, however my old-fashioned was Wisconsin style which I didn't enjoy. We shared the mushrooms as a starter - I have to admit they were perfection! The portion was generous and the crust was perfectly crispy without being greasy. I think we missed the boat, though, because we didn't order the onion rings, which looked sensational. Dinners come with a relish tray and a couple sides. The relish tray had cottage cheese, a bean salad and a pasta salad. Again, generous in size. My hubby had a steak with fried shrimp for dinner and his sides were a salad and twice baked potato. He ordered the steak rare because he didn't trust that it would be cooked to medium rare. He was right to go rare because it came out a little pink. I opted for the baked cod for dinner with a salad and twice baked potato. My cod was 12oz and was moist and flaky. I didn't even put a dent in my dinner because I was full from the mushrooms and relish tray. We ended up bringing most of our entrees home. I'm glad we tried this restaurant out, but honestly even though the food was decent, I didn't enjoy the bare bones atmosphere and being uncomfortable throughout dinner because the fans were on. If you like a supper club without the frills, I think you would like this place.

Has quite the unique selection of pretty much anywhere. The quality varies. It mostly seems like a bar. Pastries and treats in the bakery area seem like an afterthought to be honest. These aren't good at all in quality. Basically it's night from a store bakery. Then they bring these here to resell these. A good deal is a shot of any liquor. It's $3 or so for one. They have a pretty big variety. It's surprising because there's not much room in here. They really do have a lot. Has live music a few times a week it seems so go see when there's a free concert. It's a good way to get attention to a local business and help them a lot. The bakery is off to the side with mostly bags of chips and the most basic of snack items you can get anywhere cheaper than what they sell things.

I buy multiple plates of it and freeze it in case I'm having a bad day or there's a freak snow storm in May. I'm not sure if the man who makes the gumbo is also the owner, but he needs a raise. It comes with cornbread. The most delicious also, and not a sliver; they give you a brick of cornbread. Such a friendly place, and actually this time while I was enjoying the quirky signs around the bar, I did take a peek at the rest of the menu. It looks like everything they have is equally worth eating. I tell you what, my soul was pretty happy walking out of there.

Actually looks like it could be filled with some pretty scary folks but thankfully they were friendly enough. You can get better than expected cocktails along with a few sandwiches. Basic looking building. It's a bar with no windows so it's pretty sketchy looking from outside. There were a few not so bad looking people outside so we took our chances and were pleasantly surprised. A limited menu. There's mostly drinks, and not much to eat usually. It's about $4 for a basic cocktail. There's limited liquors but they have Jameson. About the only food is $1 bags of potato chips. They also have a few sandwiches that are premade. Have to say it's better than it looks. It's located on McDonough Street. There's not much else around here besides auto garages and convenience stores so it's the best place to hang out or whatever.
