I went here last night with my parents for dinner. I had heard great things about Mert's and boy were they right! The fried green tomatoes were really good and the remoulade was to die for! The catfish was perfectly battered and the mac and cheese reminded me of my Grandmas... so good. The green beans were cooked just how I like them. Also to die for that we got to try, the shrimp n grits, beef short ribs, and the pound cake. Corn bread was great and the blue cheese dressing was SO good and obviously homemade. The lemonade being homemade was a treat. The service was better than I could have EVER expected, better than most restaurants. Great environment and decor. I will probably start going here regularly, as I work only a few blocks away!
