Had the Ruben sandwich. Certainly not as tasty as I've had in a Booneville restaurant. You don't know til you KNOW! ?

We ate here for the first time and they did not disappoint. They added some new dishes to the menu and we ate 2 of them and they were awesome. The smash burger was really good and flavorful and the catfish plate was some of the best I have had. This is a must place to eat at.

Great location. Very friendly. Food was really good. They are a bit shorthanded. Feel free to apply as a waitress.

I love The Merc, and the food is always really good. Also, the staff members are fantastic. You can't beat their tomato soup and grownup grilled cheese. That being said, let's talk about their seafood buffet for a bit. First, the crab cakes, stuffed crabs, and frog legs are delicious. Next, I found the sautéed mushrooms to be too salty. The same is true of one of the grilled shrimp dishes I tried, but two misses out of everything on the bar isn't that bad. Additionally, the desserts were excellent (banana pudding and caramel cobbler. Now, let's get to the real problem with the seafood buffet, the cocktail sauce. I've eaten cocktail sauce all over the world, and I've made my own for years. That being said, what is being used as horseradish in the cocktail sauce at The Merc does not deserve to be classified as horseradish, and it should certainly never be used to make cocktail sauce, ever. In fact, while I'm not 100% certain it to be the cause, I have been terribly sick at my stomach since eating it last night. In fact, I'm typing this from my bed after two rounds of Phenergan and one round of Zofran, and the cocktail sauce and shrimp are the only two items my dad didn't eat while we were dining at The Merc last night. His only complaint was that he didn't think the fried oysters "had a good taste." Personally, I didn't notice this with the ones I ate. This is my honest review of The Merc. If you are reading this and decide to try the seafood buffet, please share your experience in regard to the items in this review. I would only caution you to take your own horseradish and mix your own cocktail sauce at the table. While I wish I would've taken a picture of the cocktail sauce, I did not take one, but I can say it had the consistency of mayonnaise, and that's not right for a quality horseradish. I did snap a picture of my desserts, and I will share those with this review.

The staff at this restaurant were super friendly and accommodating. We were visiting from Missouri and they treated us like family! They told us places to visit in the area and other places to eat along our way. The food was wonderful and so much we couldn't eat it all. If you are ever in Fulton, MS, check out the Merc!

Somehow, I'd never been here. My daughter suggested it for a Sunday lunch. We were a party of five. Our drinks stayed full. Our food was very good. The staff was friendly and fabulous. The atmosphere was nice. Use the restroom. It's set up so cute and not what you'd expect from a restaurant. We'll be back for sure!
