   We had 6:00 reservations, arrived on time, and were told by the hostess it would be a few minutes that they were running behind. 35 minutes later we were seated. The manager said they had a party that ran over and it held them up. Our server was great, considering he was slammed with 5 tables in 15 minutes. The food was good. The overall experience was tainted by the delay.

   She crab bisque! What more could one say? Creamy, thick and delicious. My friend heartily recommends the shrimp and grits, which has the added delight of andouille sausage. Our server was pleasant and attentive. A great afternoon luncheon.

   Service was kind of slow but we loved our waiter, James. He had too many tables to manage on his own.

   I hope that the Manager here reads this review. The Eggs Benedict were cold. Eggs were resting in cold water, pan was cold. There was not any sterno or flame to warm the English muffin , ham, or hollandaise. When I told the gentleman that was working that station that it was all cold, he discarded the cold product and started fresh. He was also kind enough to bring a hot dish to my table ! ! This is one of the reasons that I rated the service very high. Our server was also lovely ! The chicken was burned and dry. We were originally seated upstairs where we had to pass through the location where the staff stored the linens. The room was barely 63 degrees as stated on the thermostat. Not my first time here so I know that Mere Bulles can do better.

   Over booked reservations on Valentine’s Day Arrived 8:30pm Reservation made for 9pm Seated 9:45pm Burnt and heavy over salted food Terrible experience for the night and value for $ is poor. Would think an establishment that’s been around for decades could handle it. I guess not.

   This is the first time I went to Mere Bulles on Valentines Day. We waited 45 minutes past our reservation time. That was the norm. The staff was professional and polite. This was about the standard wait time for everyone. I have never been to Mere Bulles on Valentines Day. Other than the long wait, I have no complaints. I am not complaining about the wait either as I probably would have experienced this same delay had I gone to any restaurant on Valentines Day. Food was excellent as usual.

   I’ve been to Mere Bulles multiple times for business, pleasure, and even my daughter’s wedding rehearsal dinner, and I’ve typically had positive experiences. Unfortunately, our Valentine’s Day dinner did not meet expectations. While I understand the challenges of a busy night, we were seated an hour after our reservation. The salads arrived after the entrées, my entrée had to be sent back because it was served at room temperature, and the crème brûlée was presented in a ramekin so small it was difficult to eat. Given the premium pricing for the occasion, I expected a much smoother experience. This was disappointing, especially for a special night, and left me regretting my choice of restaurant.

   Went for Valentines Day. It was a 4 course meal. Three of those were great (appetizer, soup, dessert) but the main entree (filet with augratin potatoes) was not good. The steak was very dry as were the potatoes and both very salty.

    Food and service were excellent. However, we had a 7:15 reservation and were not seated till 8:15. Service was slow in the beginning, assume the kitchen was still catching up. Seemed they way overbooked and did not have the staff to handle the Valentines crowd.
