I thought that Merlot was a nice addition to the Suwanee area. It is an upscale restaurant with a great menu and ambiance for the burbs. I work in Johns Creek where their original location was. I took many clients there for dinner and was sorry to see them relocate. My good fortune....they relocated 2 miles from my residence! There aren't too many upscale white table cloth dining opportunities in Suwanee (none), so I took my better half a long for a celebratory dinner. The decor and setting was very romantic...wait staff was very knowledgeable, friendly and competent.....great menu (Bruschetta, Scallops and seasonal Pumkin Cheesecake desert were all delightful).....and the place has a seperate large upscale bar area with two flat panel TV's with football featured this partculiar evening. The bar area would be a great spot to have a cocktail on busy Friday and Saturday night while waiting for your table! The wine menu was fairly extensive and reasonably priced.
Pros: Ambiance, Food, Wait Staff, Wine and Location
