Such a pleasure. Tried many different things, all were amazing. Also accommodating towards GF substitutions. Can't wait until the weather is better to utilize their patio!! Half off bottles of wine on Mondays!!!

Would definitely come back to La Merenda! Every dish we got was delicious and filling. There were three of us and we got five plates and dessert and it was the perfect amount. Our standouts were the beef empanadas and the mushroom risotto.

The drinks were good, I had a Sour Old Fashion which was 10/10, my date a Sangria which also was a 10/10.

Appetizer was Potato Skin with Parmesan Cheese and Truffle Oil which was a 7/10.

Ordered a Korean Beef with was a 7/10 and the Argentinian Beef which was meh a 6/10. Food was nothing special taste wise.

Overall a 3.5 Stars. Will not come again or invite someone.

Darling restaurant with delicious tapas dishes. Really loved the Korean beef and chicken risotto. The pistachio salad was also fantastic. Portions are larger than expected so start with less than you might believe to be sufficient.

From the moment we walked in, the service was excellent. Our server, Gosia, was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and made wonderful recommendations that we truly enjoyed. The management was very attentive and professional, taking the time to check in with each table, which really made the experience feel personal. This is a fantastic place to sample a variety of dishes with diverse cultural influences. We’ll definitely be coming back — 10 out of 10!

Excellent food! Went with a group of friends and we each ordered two dishes, so we got to try a lot of great dishes. My favorite was the mushroom risotto. The cocktails were good as well, I ordered the paloma. Good ambiance as well, great for conversation!

Loooved it here! Felix was an excellent, knowledgeable server and they really enhanced our experience. I can't pick a favorite dish because they were all excellent, but I think my go-to recommendations would be the gnocchi, either of the risottos, and the empanadas.

First time visiting La Merenda, what an Amazing Experience! Thank you!
Highly recommend Chicken Risotto, Argentinian Beef, Wilted Spinach & Goat Cheese curds.
Had a special night planned for bf b-day. Had reservations near by, that were lost.
We had been wanting to try La Maranda for a while. Walked in, no reservation, ate at the bar.
I can’t even begin to explain how amazing the food and service was. The bartender Felix, made us feel
right at home and helped make it a perfect night!
Can’t wait to go back.

The food, and drinks here, are always awesome. At worst something is just good, and overshadowed by all the other dishes. We had a table of 8, and a baby, they fixed us up real nice. Good service, amazing food, and comped us a desert for the birthday girl in the party.
