We were in town for a family wedding. Our local relatives have been telling about this place for some time and we had a chance experience it first hand last Thursday evening. The food was outstanding, service was attentive and responsive. The chef/owner John came out and sat with us sharing stories of the local ingredients. My son-in-law and his friend said the steaks were the best they have ever had. I had the trout special, and, it was special. Layers of flavor and super fresh. The rhubarb crisp was a special treat for dessert. Overall, one of the best restaurant experiences ever. We will be back!!!! read more

Very pleased with our visit up to Midway Merc. Midway itself is such a cute little town and surrounded by fall colors on the drive up the canyon set the stage. The restaurant continued with the atmosphere and the outside patio with leaves and colors was a great setting. The service was helpful and friendly and excellent. And the food - impressed with each of the things we had. Cooked well and vibrant. And in case you're wondering, like I was, the potato-yam gratin layered with kale is almost like a potato lasagna. I don't like kale even and this was a delightful side dish. Who knew? Thanks Midway Mercantile for a great evening! read more

My wife loved her halibut curry. She said it was perfectly cooked the softest. My steak was just fine. It was nothing special. There are comfy, booths, and middle tables. It seems to make the dishes look fancier than need be, but the flavor profile didn't deliver. It's ambient and clean. Fine for a date night or bring family. read more

Grateful that this restaurant exists! Delicious food and good service. Very conscientious regarding food prep for people with Celiac disease. Third time here and was a terrific evening. read more

Amazing food! A most memorable experience! Staff was amazing! The food and ambiance made it quite the night!

One cannot turn down the amazing menu of delectable dishes or refreshing drink menu Midway Mercantile has to offer. Rosemary gimlet, delish! Don't forget to add the hot strawberry rhubarb crisp with pecans topped with a healthy scoop of melting vanilla ice cream as a finisher! Summer evenings on the patio is a must. Items I've tried: -Shepard's pie -Salmon -Shrimp & grits -Trout -wood fired Pizza -Summer salad -2020 was smoked trout w/ local greens, and PC goat cheese -strawberry rhubarb crisp Items I'll be back for: Basically everything. Is there a menu I can use as a checklist? John, the owner, makes sure to visit every table and make the guests feel welcome. Offers insight about a guest's dish -probably so that other guests can overhear which then entices them to return for more goodness! My first time at Midway Mercantile I had requested an item that was only seasonal (shrimp & grits) and it was no longer available. Bummer as I had heard rave reviews. After a little coaxing, John handed over his card then offered to bring the dish back as a special just for us! After an email or two and two weeks later I made sure to return with a larger group as a thank you for accommodating the special menu request. The entire table was impressed with their entree -steak, salad, shrimp & grits, etc. John made our whole night. Appetizers, drinks, desserts. All of it. Amazing! read more

Food and atmosphere are great however, the service is CONSISTENTLY slow and bad. Employees seem unhappy and begrudgingly serve the customers. A restaurant at this price point needs to cater to the guests, and I would say service is on par with a fast food restaurant. We were there for our third visit last week and we had a party of six people and ordered cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts as we had a special occasion and believed it was worth the investment. Our server was rude, inattentive and seemed resentful of having to service us and the surrounding tables. Made us feel like we were an imposition on his time. Also, service was so SLOW! Total meal took hours (and this has been the same issue we experienced in the past). Overall, inattentive/slow/rude service. Which is unexpected given the atmosphere and location. Third time is the charm and we will never go back. Our bill was close to $400 and we left feeling frustrated and sad. Never again MM. Sorry. read more

Nice ambience and food, with attentive service. The menu is interesting and changes seasonally.

Great food and always great service The trout is the best I've ever had! Outside seating and patio are wonderful. read more

Seated in the patio. Great service. Delicious food- pizza, charred Caesar salad, fish tacos.

Lovely ambiance, flavorful food, the waiters were so nice. My one complaint was the deception of these tasty salmon tacos- there were only 2 when it looks like there are 3. Hubby enjoyed his burger and the fries were DELICIOUS. Would recommend! read more

I was in town for a conference and Midway Mercantile was a 5 min drive away. The Yelp reviews seemed pretty positive and had a wide range of options. Upon entering, the decor was cute and matched the environment of being up in the mountains. The menu had options ranging from entrees, sandwiches and appetizers. They also had specials, usually a meat and pasta option. They make their pasta in house so it's always an enticing option to get the special. I was in the mood for the salmon, which came with veggies, apples and cashews. I wasn't sure how the apples abs cashews would fair in the dish but to my surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The salmon and overall dish was cooked well and was not over seasoned. The dish appears simple but it was executed well and was probably more complex than what meets the eye. The dish was $23. I left satisfied but not stuffed. I left happy and satiated. Although I opted for the salmon, there were other options that looked good such as the pork tenderloin and the pasta options. The pizza and burgers also look like great too. The service was timely and friendly. Overall, the food isn't unique or different to the region but offers an array of options for groups of people that may have different tastes. I don't see myself being back in the area but I would certainly come back and visit! Midway, thanks for having some good food! read more

Absolutely love this place. Been here two times and both times were excellent. Please try the bacon wrapped dates and the beet muhammara dip. The Halibut, burger and trout were all very yummy. Dessert- OMG try the pie. read more

An absolutely awesome locals spot in downtown Midway. Great menu, great ambience, decent prices for Deer Valley-level food.

Great food and atmosphere. Everything we ordered was delicious. The beet hummus is soooo good!

Food is always amazing but the a girl in kitchen staff was on the phone on speaker phone conversating loudly ruining the atmosphere. Server was also wearing an AirPod which strikes unprofessional for such an upscale restaurant. read more

Wonderful restaurant in Midway with a fun menu, great service, and a delightful ambiance! Highly recommended.

I had lunch in this place, and I was really surprised with this place because the food is excellent. The quality of the food products is incredible. The restaurant is cozy and the service was good. If you have the opportunity to go to Midway... I recommend this place for lunch or dinner. read more

Definitely a must in Midway! The whole place feels unique and homey at the same time. Each dining area is a little different but their patio in the summer time just before dark is my favorite. The menu has a couple changes made to it each season. John also prepares a new special for each night. Because of this I never really get tired of going back. You can tell John cares about the experience each customer has in his restaurant. read more

The fish was very delicious and the portion was decent! Nice ambient inside, perfect for a casual date. The lamb pie was a bit tasteless, and no pie crust, just potatoes. Would not order that again. read more

Quaint atmosphere and friendly staff. The Grains and Green Salad was delicious, as was the Campfire Idaho Trout which comes with the tastiest potatoes and charred greens. The Turkey Sandwich was also flavorful, and the winter special pizza, You'll Always Be My Gyro, was well received by our table. Our order got messed up and we were originally served a cheese pizza which was sorely lacking in flavor, so I'm so thankful we didn't order that. They also serve a great Czech Pilsner to wash it all down with. read more

Awesome food and service! The restaurant itself is a fun and interesting place, especially given its history and being in Midway.

Very creative food, happy, fun servers, bartender was willing to make an off season drink for out of town guests who LOVE his work. Over the top--the best! read more

The service wasn't the best...the waiter kept forgetting things and our glasses sat empty. The food was pretty good and came out relatively quickly. The atmosphere and building were nice. read more

Everything from start to finish was excellent. Amazing food, great flavor, warm service and ambiance. Highly recommend.

I was sadly disappointed in our dining experience. I totally understand that restaurants get busy. That being said, our reservation was for 6:30p, and we didn't get our food until almost 7:45p. Sure, sometimes there is a wait, but when you have a hungry 2 year old? It's a rough wait. We ordered the "Pasta of the Day" that happened to be the lemon ravioli with ribeye medallions. I won't claim to be a Michelin star chef, because I'm not. However, medallions means that there are supposed to be actual meat chunks. Not a few incredibly fatty meat scraps mixed in with the marinara sauce covering the overcooked ravioli, that has next to no lemon flavor inside of the ravioli... it was just a disappointing meal after having to wait for what felt like an eon to get our food in the first place. When I asked for a small fruit side for my kid to help tie her over... it would have been super nice to get the fruit as soon as possible, instead of bringing the fruit after she had already had her main course. Having worked in CS for many years, no matter how busy you get, what makes the difference for customers is the small attentions to detail that really make or break any kind of dining, or shopping experience. It did suck majorly after everything to get sick after the meal and be up all night. Lesson learned I guess. If possible, turning down the live music speaker, just a little, would be nice so guests don't have to shout to hear each other at their own table, and the poor staff can actually communicate what specials are on the menu, without having to repeat themselves and practically shout at their tables. Live music is amazing, but if you're looking to dine, it's nice when you can listen as well as not finish dinner needing a cup of hot tea for a hoarse throat. read more

I eat here a couple of times a month, usually on Sunday. It's really good and one of the few places (maybe the only) in Midway to find a variety of fresh oysters. There is a good spot to watch football in the back,, with four or five screens going in the afternoon, which is fun and relaxing after skiing. The owner seems like a nice guy as well, checks in politely to see how things are going. read more

(Covid19 visit) A solid little dinner/date night spot if you're a local. They accommodated our larger group (5 Adults and 3 kids). Tables were decently spaced from other diners and the staff was wearing masks which was nice since not everywhere in Utah is requiring that now. Service was a little wonky but I think that may have been to a new employee training which is no big deal. The food was solid, I shared the salmon entrée and a salad with my husband. The rest of the table got an assortment of pizza, pasta, and other things that got good reviews from the table too. read more

Time to update my review! The food here is yummy. There turkey sandwich is very good and somewhat unique. Definitely recommend. I also tried their imperial mix the other day. Also unique and very flavorful. I enjoy the vibe. Hostess has always been nice. I still can't give it 5 stars because I feel like service is lacking. Not great on water refills or wait staff checking in. It's not bad, but not 5 stars. Also their menu needs to be updated. Fish tacos don't mention what type of fish. Sandwich comes with aioli when it isn't listed on it. One of the best, if not the best, restaurant in midway. Just wish I saw a little more before I can give it 5 stars. read more

In my opinion, the best restaurant in Utah. My boyfriend and I have come for birthdays, anniversaries, and Valentines. The food and atmosphere is absolutely wonderful. Service is top-notch. read more

Perfect for groups. I love that the restaurants is actually a couple of houses attached from the old days. I like the brick structure, the facade, the style inside, super cozy even though the place is huger, bigger than you can imagine or see from the outside. It was different levels/styles. From bar to have some drinks, to spacious main area, to 2 separate rooms for more intimate parties. We were a party of 7 so a booth was not enough for us even though was our intention, so they let us be by ourselves in one of those rooms with big communal table. Nice decoration with old Americana style objects. Loved the flooring, the lamps, the woody look & feel...as per food it was OK. I enjoyed a lot the salad, very fresh, but the famous cheese from the area was almost imperceptible. It was really nice and fresh but would have liked to savor that cheese. Avocado toast with salmon was really good. We shared calamari (not great, on the gummy side) and the fondue had not great bread and fruits in my opinion (for the nice quality cheese). Pizza was ok. For food alone I would have given 3 stars but the whole experience was very positive as our server also was fantastic and we had a great time. read more

Great restaurant, would recommend to anyone. Okay - the service here was way too good. We had a bunch of specific requests with people in our group being gluten free or vegetarian. They turned their regular dishes into those that were completely accommodating, but they were all still delicious. Special call out to the Cobb salad, the raclette, and the French fries ... French fries were incredible. Thanks to everyone at Midway for making us feel like royalty. read more

Wow, this place has some serious flavor. The shepard's pie was the best I have ever had and their salads were so fresh. With the flavors being as elevated as they are, you would expect equally high prices, but the prices aren't bad at all. They don't have a super expansive menu, but I believe it because the chefs won't serve anything that they don't have perfected. The restaurant is located in an older building, but it has been renovated and has a warm, cozy, and classy feel. read more

The hubs was more impressed with this place than I was. I think I just chose a poor main dish. The bacon wrapped dates were delicious. The hubs also loved his main course. He got the pasta special. I got the fish tacos and they were ok. The dessert was ok also. Not my flavor I guess. I give this place three stars but my husband gives it 4, so I went with four, just for his sake ;) read more

We were so excited to eat at this restaurant while staying in Midway because of the great reviews. Unfortunately, we did not have the same great experience. We ordered an assortment of food to try and thought it would all be delicious expecting a fine dining experience. We were going to order a bottle of wine but the food came in like 2 seconds (so not made fresh!) and then the server rushed us out of the restaurant in under 25 minutes! The food was extremely underwhelming. It was ok but not at all worth the price. The overall experience that we had wanted for a fun date night while on vacation was completely dissatisfying. We actually ended up going back to our hotel and had a glass of wine and more apps there that were better than the restaurant. read more

I hope this reviews only helps as we love the atmosphere, great service and location. Lunch is always decent but dinner has been missing the mark for a good review. We ordered calamari, meatloaf and the trout. All was bland, soggy and lukewarm warm. The crème brûlée was missing the crispy crust for the texture needed. read more
