    Phenomenal evening at Merlion. Our server Brian recommended the Pad Thai with lamb chops and it was honestly one of the best things I have eaten this year so far! Nice atmosphere, but got loud as the evening progressed. I would highly recommend dining here.

    Nice evening. I suspect number of customers over whelmed staff. Very nice evening. FYI. Discuss spice levels while ordering. 1 of 3 is actually fairly spicey.

    We enjoyed an excellent evening here, and were blessed to have Jacob as our waiter. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and entertaining as well. We have our favorite dishes here, but honestly you cannot go wrong with anything you pick. The Tom Kha soup is amazing, as is the Softhshell Crab and the Mussels. The ambiance, attention to detail, wonderful service, and spicy Thai dishes here just make this a true winner for the Seabrook area. Make sure to say "Hi" to Bernice, the restaurant manager, and enjoy an elegant evening with your significant other. You will not be disappointed.

    They made my daughter’s birthday extra special decorating the table with glitter and rose pedals. Ended the evening with a small Bundt cake for one with candle and a bottle of sparkling wine! It was fabulous
