The Meritas 5-course meal special is definitely generous and abundant. You receive a choice of soup, followed by a choice of appetizers, a plate of salad, an entree served with a choice of baked, mashed potatoes or fries and a side of vegetables. On top of all that you're served a choice of desserts and a cup of coffee or tea. It's a very generous meal for a very modest price. $79 with a bottle of wine or $59 without. However the quality of the meal could be better. The soup was delicious but my choice of fondue parmesan as an appetizer left a lot to desire. It was over-cooked, nearly burnt, and came with a pitiful leaf of wilted lettuce and two cherry tomatoes. The salad that accompanied the appetizer was very uninspired. It offered Iceberg lettuce, a bit of red cabbage and s scarce portion of bacon bits. The au jus rib roast I was served was the right degree of doneness but lacked flavor and seasoning. I was glad I had some horseradish to eat with it. My baked potatoe would have been more tasty if it had been seasoned a bit. Overall I would say that my meal was acceptable but uninspired. I'm disappointed because in the past the food I've eaten at Le Rascal was much tastier. Sadly it was my husband's birthday dinner, which makes it even more...
Read moreThe rascal Grill is one that I would never recommend. The waitress was extremely nice and looked almost as if she was being kidnapped. The bread was decent, but slowly and slowly we came to be more shapes like a hotdog. Other people around me were also looking extremely upset and regretful of their decisions. My friend ordered a hamburger just to be greeted with A crusty soggy burger. My brother-in-law ate two bites of his so-called lobster roll, and met with a mouthful of lobster shells. I don’t wanna share what happened to him after the experience, but all I’ll say is he’s in a wheelchair. Don’t even get me started with the bathroom, There was not one but two plants growing out of the toilets, but a middle-aged woman sprawled across the floor acting as if She was a fish, the worst part about that She had been my Waiter. For the past two hours my party at this restaurant was permanently scarred from the experience I highly don’t recommend. Stay away Bald waitress, who me and my friend described to look as Walter White. The movies that they were playing, were highly inappropriate, and made some cry. The music was three hours of which was chosen by none other than the...
Read moreSadly we had a very bad experience on our first visit to the place. I felt like I was on a fast-food restaurant for the waitress was always in a hurry. She wrote my order wrong, never wanted to admit it, made me pay extra fees for what I didn't order and when I complained she did ZERO efforts to fix it. Instead, she offered me the additional side (the one I originally ordered) for an extra dollar. I thought it was a joke, but she was serious about it.
The tablecloth was dirt. It was not worth it mentioning because when I noticed we were already so disappointed by the service that we just rolled eyes.
I think the administration of the restaurant should consider hiring extra servers, for the lady who was serving us had at least 40 clients to take care of, when the recommended limit is 20. It just took her too long to come see us, to refill water, to just pay attention to our table.
Yes the food was great, but since my partner is a chef, we really don't feel like going out just to grab good food. We expect a good service and overall experience. So probably never going back...
