We got to experience dining at the Merchant Tavern on a recent trip to St. John’s. The staff were very good, on point,... friendly and helpful with the menu. The atmosphere was bright yet cozy at the same time. We tried the oysters and nachos asappetizers and we were not disappointed. Had the cod and butternut squash (duck) risotto for the mains and all of the food wasgreat. Portion sizes were good and we definitely didn’t leave hungry. Would highly recommend if travelling to the city, oreven if you are looking for a good restaurant for a date night. Read more

This place is AMAZING! After having been here twice now I can say this is my current favorite restaurant in St. John's and my... family agreed. The pictures are from my most recent time there. Halibut on a bed of potato puree, lobster linguine, and my dishwhich was the carbonara. Now - I've had a lot of carbonara in my life that includes having had it in Italy and also making itmyself. This was a fantastic pasta dish from this restaurant. As you can see, it is clearly not a traditional Italian carbonarawhich is traditionally just parmesan and/or pecorino, guanciale (Italian pancetta), pasta water, and egg yolk. However, Iactually enjoyed this just as much if not more (in some ways) than times I have had traditional carbonara, including in Italy.The other guests with me agreed that this was their favorite meal from our many outings in St. John's. We had a shrimp cevichefor our appetizer - it was great. Large fresh shrimp and brilliantly balanced citrus notes. Our dessert was a creme brulee -probbaly one of my top creme brulee dishes. The atmosphere is also really great here - it is industrial but cozy. We reallyenjoyed that the kitchen and prep areas were fully open so we spent lots of time watching the cooks work. Our server wasfriendly and professional. All around a great experience and one that I highly recommend. Update: went again and it was anotheramazing experience. I had a rack of lamb and it was the best lamb Iv ever had. The sauce was a great combination of umami andsweet - I dislike when it's JUST sweet so this was great. The best! Pic attached. Read more
Meal was phenomenal. Perfect seasoning and serving size. Wasn’t as busy as I expected so not sure why it was so hard to get a... reservation, but glad we got in. A must stop every time I’m in St.John’s!! So good are here twice in a row! Read more
