Eddie Merlot's - Columbus

I want share with you our experience celebrating our 38th wedding anniversary. The service was very unbecoming of this normally fine restaurant.It took a long time for Banana Foster to arrive the table. We were on the verge of walking out. The server did not flambe the syrup properly and did not allow the bananas to properly cook. He kept turning them over and over ... never giving those time to brown. He only poured one spoonful of syrup over each dish of ice cream. We were essentially eating vanilla ice cream. There were a several of other service mistakes throughout the evening. Any single error was not a big deal. However the cumulative effect of these errors make for a very bad experience.

We had the ribeye, tuna and pork chops; all were perfectly prepared and delicious. Same for the chocolate cake, cheesecake and crème brûlée. Our server was personable, knowledgeable and friendly. An overall great experience. We will definitely be returning.

An over the top steakhouse where everything is executed on a big scale. The building is huge, there are multiple cavernous dining rooms, an absurdly long bar and most importantly, the steaks are more meat than anyone should be allowed to consume. The same goes for all the other dishes on the menu. Service is professional as it should be in a place of such caliber. It's not a joint for a quiet dinner as the noise level is noticeable and borderline annoying. If that can be overlooked, one is in for a heavy, expensive meal.
