Merchant Bar is a restaurant known for its fresh and delicious food, thoughtful ingredient pairings, and well-made sauces. The service is friendly and attentive, with staff like Jazmine and Lindsay going above and beyond to enhance special occasions. Guests have noted that the restaurant has a great drink menu, featuring excellent craft cocktails that are refreshing. While the food has received praise, some reviews mention that the noise level can be quite high, making conversation difficult. The restaurant offers a nicely curated menu that evolves and accommodates guests' time constraints, and it is conveniently located for pre-show dining. The atmosphere is cozy, with high top seating and a varnished tabletop, although it can be sticky. Merchant Bar has received positive reviews for its delicious strawberry shortcake over toasted corn bread and Tres leches shortcake, along with excellent service. Customers express their desire to return, solidifying its reputation as a top choice in Wilmington.
