“Wow oh wow! How do I even start a review about this place! Everything about this place is mind-blowing! I absolutely love this place; the view is just breathtaking! It almost feels like something you'd see in a movie. There are plenty of seating arrangements, including a more private area for people who want to sit outside but be close to the bar. The seating arrangements are both indoors and outdoors. Plenty of tables from looking out to the lake, some longer tables for bigger parties, and also some tables closer to the doors leading inside the actual restaurant to the indoor seating. There are lights that are close to the door hanging around the back of the building to have more of a romantic feeling to it, which in my opinion really enhancing the feeling of the atmosphere. The server we had was caring and sweet! Even slightly talkative! We even saw a groundhog! The music playing in the background wasn't too loud but there was a lot of good songs playing! I had the nachos. Not a disappointment! One of the best nachos I've ever had! I also had the kitty cocktail! Which really hit the spot! All around the atmosphere was 5/5, service 5/5 view 5/5. She server refilled my drink and was very fast and efficient bringing our food out. Told us we can pay the check and linger if we wanted too! Just all around a really good experience! I will be coming back to this place as soon as I'm in the area again!
Wheelchair accessibility: Unfortunately it's not really wheel chair accessibility. There's stairs on both sides of the building leading to the restaurant. Inside the building there's more stairs to go down to it. Multiple ways. But none for the handicapped ?“

“My wife and I had dinner with some friends here on a snowy night in January. She had the Cola braised beef short rib, which was excellent, but I think I "won" dinner with the Halibut special-- a portion of halibut over mashed potatoes which were in turn over a mixed-green salad. It sounds a little odd and I was vaguely surprised when our server delivered it, but it turned out to be a good surprise! The salad, fish, and potatoes made every bite flavorful!
A few things stood out to us tonight:
- overall, it was a really positive sit-down experience-- our waiter was attentive, but not too attentive. She made sure our beers and waters were full, but didn't overly interrupt dinner
- we got seated right away and the booth and decor were comfortable and friendly. The "rock cribs" were kind of a fun thing to look at.
- And finally, the food, of course. Everything was tasty and delicious. I can't remember what our friends had, but overall, we'd definitely go back when we're in-town!
We’ve only had dinner once at B*Merri, but our friends have had lunch and dinner multiple times, and we would all go back! Fantastic place in the north woods!“

“Beautiful patio, delicious food and friendly service. it doesn't get better than that! My favorite place Up North❣️“
“We had dinner at the Commander last night. We were a little hesitant because of a spate of not very good reviews but, wound up with a really good experience. Our server, Heather, was quite pleasant, and very attentive. The food and drinks were really good and served promptly. The prime rib was a healthy portion and very good. The $25 price was well worth it. Reviews can be very interesting. The only thing I can say is that if the spotty reviews were earned, and I have no basis for not believing other reviewers, then just maybe management learned from them. Our experience was very good and I wouldn't hesitate to go back“

“If you are coming to the Brainerd Lakes area a visit to Ernie's is a must. They represent what we are about up here: water, beautiful settings in nature and some of the best food you can find. Their creativity, presentation, and taste exceed the norm. Do not miss Ernie's!“

“We stopped by this evening for dinner. There was a sign posted, they were short staffed and there could be a wait for service. One young girl had all the tables and did a fantastic job. We did NOT have to wait at all. She stayed on top of things. We ordered the chicken Chimichangas and the chicken enchiladas. both were excellent! We would order again! While the building is a little tired, the food makes up for it!! We will be back!!“

“Had lunch during the week. Was nice and quiet, food was made fresh. Hamburger was great, BLT could have used a bit more bacon, everything came out nice and hot. My blue moon tasted a little flat but everyone else's were fine. Would visit again.
Parking: Lots of parking“

“Great food, views, drinks... live music on Friday and Saturday. An intimate woodsy venue. Top notch staff. And I think you can play golf here if you’re into that sort of thing.“
