Been here previously and had great experiences, decided to come here for valentine’s dinner and had a very different one.

Took 10 minutes to be seated -no big deal - Took about 40 minutes for someone to come to our table and ask if we had ordered anything. (we had to flag them down ourselves) Finally got our drinks about 15 minutes after we ordered them.

We saw more people leave because they were tired of waiting for service and food than people who left because they were fed.

Finally after 90 minutes of waiting for dinner (after we ordered) we were told our food would be out soon in about 10 minutes. We finally got our food, it was barely warm and just not good. My partner and I both ordered steak, and potatoes and were shocked how they could mess it up. We asked for our check and boxes. They comped us our meals, everyone was very apologetic, but very lacking in how the night played out.

Our dogs enjoyed the steaks when we got home.

We won’t be going there again for a while. (And definitely not for a Valentine’s Day)

Had Valentine's Day dinner reservation at 5:30pm. We were seated right away. Got our drink order, and ordered our food, prime rib and added lobster. I received a text message at 6:07 saying our order was ready. At 6:15, the waitress came to our table and said there was a mistake, and they had run out of lobster. We finally got our food at 6:45pm. The food was cold, and there was no auju, horseradish sauce, drawn butter, or toppings for our baked potato. Asked the waitress for all of the above. She never brought any of it. The food was already cold when she brought it to our table, even the lobster was cold that she said they had to cook because they were out. She came to our table asking for a card for payment, and I asked about a discount since our dinner was terrible. She gave me a 20% discount. We ended up taking our food home in a togo container, so we could take it home to heat it up and make our own horseradish and drawn butter. Very disappointing! Next year we will cook our own at home or go to Ernie's Steakhouse. We will probably never go back to Meriwheather's Bistro.

I've been coming to this hotel and Bar/grill for the last 5 years. The drinks were way overpriced. They changed the menu to a little dive bar menu. The food sucked. They changed the time for breakfast to 7 instead of 6. I heard they hired a new chef. Changed the menu, then fired him. Not really sure what has happened to this place, but I will not be back. Along with the people I bring up to Lewiston.

Had to write a review because the food at this resturant has gone to a new level. I hope they keep this chef, what a difference. It has always been ok but now they have a new menu and it is a step above most resturants in the area. I just tried the Steak Benedict, my mother in law had the fish chowder, My wife had the Cob Salad they were all amazing. We will be back often.

So disappointed. We came for the Breakfast with Santa experience ( the experience with Santa is what makes this worth the price) this year it was nothing more than a breakfast buffet with Santa off to the side. No special Santa experience! No special decorations or interactions. Just a total waste of time and money. I will not be back again for this non fun event!

Came in for the complimentary Continental breakfast provided with our room. Did not expect such a tasty and hearty offering. Then we were seated in the Meriwether's restaurant and served like we were full dining guests. The service was attentive, fast, and intuitive. Great service! I will be back just to eat at the restaurant.

First our group of 14 sat in the restaurant for lunch at noon. It was strongly suggested we relocate to the bar side before we even put in a drink order. So we moved and then waited. After some time we were given some menus. There was one server for the whole bar and she was also the bartender. It wasn't real busy, but by 1230 we placed our drink order. my iced tea was sweetened when I asked for unsweetened. 1245 we place our food order. 11 orders came out and 3 were wrong, 2 never showed up. 130 finally got the other 2 orders after everyone else was done. poorly operated and food was not very good. I would suggest looking elsewhere for better service and food.

Went for an early Mother’s Day dinner with my family (party of 3) and had a 6:30 reservation. We were seated promptly on the patio, but unfortunately, we were never acknowledged by any staff after that. We waited 30 minutes, during which we watched our waitress serve other tables, including a large party that arrived after us, and even sit down to chat with them, but no one ever came to take our order or check in.
We let the host know we were leaving, and she was very kind, but the lack of service was disappointing. The interior had only a few occupied tables while the patio was full so why seat guests where the staff clearly couldn’t keep up? Very disappointed and won’t be returning any time soon
