Merlino's Family Steakhouse

Great steak! I was in the bar so can't comment on the ambiance of the restaurant but I'm sure the food would be the same. Garlic mashed, side ceasar and calamari were my choices. Calamari tasted like it was from a freezer bag though the marinara was pretty good. Garlic mashed were a little cool for me but weren't cold by any means. Overall it was a decent dinner in a bar on a Thursday evening. The highlight of the meal, as it should be, was the steak. Grilled to a perfect med Rare. It was juicy, slightly blackened, and very flavorful. Go! Enjoy!

Food was good, price was a little high but better than decent proportions of the food. On the smaller side, the bar area looked like it would be a nice place to sit back and watch sports. Would return next time we are in North Conway. The haddock was very well prepared and not greasy at all. Overall good place to visit for a hearty meal or a nice drink.
