    It was chaotic and the servers/valet/chefs/reception personnel were handling it with Grace and patience. The food was awesome and the buffets were kept filled. It was a very special outing with a special group of friends celebrating a wonderful holiday season. I would highly recommend the grand concourse for any special occasion.

    This is a dining experience. 5 stars for everything. We dined on a crowded Saturday night, realizing it would be busy, but the tables are spaced out perfectly so that you don’t hear everyone’s conversation. The food is simply exquisite. But the star of the evening was our server Ron. He truly delivered all you could want and need. He’s charming, knowledgeable, all the things you hope for. The master chef delivered! She got applause from me. Thank you Eddie V’s for showing us the perfect evening. 👏🏼

    We have an annual get together at Christmas every year at Eddie Merlot's. We sit in the bar area and look at the holiday tree. We told our server we were there for a leisurely dinner and he honored that. He didn't rush us at all and coursed our dinner as such. He made great recommendations and helped convinced me to trg the elk chop. It was fantastic. Everything was great until the end when we were told that parking was no longer validated. That had been in place since the restaurant opened and has been a differentiator from other steakhouses. That was disappointing.

    My parents and I had a lovely meal at McCormick and Schmick's to celebrate my mother's birthday. All three of us loved our dinner choices: parmesian encrusted flounder, the burbon-glazed salmon, and the crab and shrimp-stuffed salmon. Our server, Tiffany, was attentive and helpful, suggesting we try the apple pie and cinamon ice cream for dessert--delicious! A short walk to the Benedum and Heinz Hall, McCormick and Schmick's is our go-to restaurant when we have theater or concert tickets downtown. They never disappoint!
