Mercury Dining Room and Rail

Another fantastic lunch experience. This time, I was out with my significant other. The brussel sprouts starter was tasty and filling. My partner enjoyed the poached salmon on their roasted beet salad. We both had hot tea with lemon, which was served generously. Although my ahi tuna burger was a bit crumbly today, it was still good. The Arnold Palmer drink never ran out, and our server Shannon provided excellent service without being overbearing. Overall, a great choice for a daytime outing.

Food for the evening was very good however the service was a little lacking. Granted, it was New Year 's Eve and the place was busy, but it seemed as if they were short staffed for the night. Also an issue is the establishment imposed 3% addition to the bill for Employee Wellness . Employee Wellness does not change if my bill is $100 or $500 so why charge a flat 3%? I suggest the parent company be brave and raise the menu items by 3% and stop pretending that Wellness Costs increase along with the size of my bill.

We had to wait for more than an hour for our food and several other tables who were seated after us received their food before we did.

Snarky server and call from host when they failed to check me in. They called while I was in the restaurant and left a snarky vm. Server not please when I asked to move tables when they were unable to turn off the vent blowing directly in my face. I won’t make it a priority to do business lunches here.

I would recommend not ordering the Grilled Cheese sandwich anymore, which is now a half sandwich and very much overpriced. Not sure when that happened, but I will definitely not be ordering that particular item again. Otherwise, it was great.
