the splattered chefs coat on the chief chef was a bit of a turnoff. I am a messy cook and I know Frank really is a chef and. I appreciated meeting with him. That is sooo rare these days to meet with the person that cooks for you and have a dialogue about flavor. And he is an EXCELLENT chef.... More

Baked stuffed shrimp were out of this world. There are 4, but they are huge and fairly priced... even in the off season. Service was fast and helpful. My family has had some minor complaints about the bartender, I have not sat at the bar to comment.

Until last night, the last time I went to Merced's was the beginning of the tourist season. We showed up and the restaurant was busy, but not out right slammed.

Went there during the Blue Festival and it's obvious people go there for the drinks not the food, because the food was awful. Very limited selection and very poor quality.

Great restaurant. Recommended by our host at The August Bove B&B. Before dinner we had a nice conversation with the chef. My wife had regular lobsters and i had (for the first time) stuffed lobsters. They were stuffed with shrimp an scallops, delicious.

The good: Nice view of active marina. Float planes coming in for landings. The downside is that the carpet is old. The tables have plastic covers and the chairs are at least 30 years old and look it. The decor could use an upgrade, rather badly. Then again, look out the window at the gorgeous views of Brandy Pond. Drinks... More
