Have been here twice and had a wonderful experience both times! The first time, I came here for dinner as a school assignment. The owner came to our class to discuss his creative work/entrepreneurial process behind the restaurant + it was very cool. The second time was for brunch.
The concept is farm de table in terms food and drinks. There's a large drink list, all with fresh locally sourced ingredients. During my second visit (Saturday brunch), I got a Bloody Mary and my boyfriend got a mimosa and they were very SO good! I like that they give you the option of having the bloody spicy bc I like it hot! The mix was unique and very fresh.
In addition, the food was very fresh and tasteful as well. During my first visit, I ordered the pork pappardelle, which was very rich and flavorful. The second time, I ordered the breakfast burrito for brunch and the dish was just as good.
I like merchant because it has a very unique atmosphere. You can tell that there has been a lot of thought put into the decor + that the staff are very knowledgable.
Overall, merchant is a wonderfully offbeat joint to get farm de table food.
