Cranberry Inn of Mercer

The bar was full, and since the space is small, we wondered if it would be noisy. It wasn't a problem at all. I started with the phenomenal crab-stuffed mushrooms, then had the prime rib cooked exactly how I ordered it. My boyfriend's filet mignon was amazing too, and our server was very sweet. We'll definitely be back.

Eric has added a nice dining option to the area. We had dinner for four on Saturday, ordering duck quesadillas, prime rib, baked onion soup, sliders, and ribs. All the entrees were very good. The ribs were meaty and falling off the bone, the prime rib was done nicely, and the soup was cheesy and delicious. The side salads were standard, with generic dressing. Our young waitress kept the service timely.

The sea bass was very good when I went for Friday fish fry. I'd tried the prime rib earlier, when the place first opened, and it was so tough and tasteless that I couldn't eat it.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the restaurant, but everything we ordered was impressively good. The Korean Wings were crispy, large, and full of flavor, eight in all. Even actual wing restaurants don't have wings this good. We also got the Hungarian mushroom soup and lobster bisque. The bisque had big chunks in it instead of being mostly liquid like at many places, and tasted great. The mushroom soup was unusual and loaded with tasty mushrooms. I'd order both soups again. The Portobello ravioli and Crab Ravioli came with different cream sauces. I preferred the portobello one, but both were great, with generous portions that felt worth the cost. The crab ravioli was filled with large, succulent crab. The meal came with homemade bread that was soft and amazing, plus an incredible cranberry butter or spread. Literally everything, right down to the bread, was great. I'm from the city, and this is one of the best restaurants I've eaten at in a long time. I look forward to trying more of the menu.
