    Merriment Social offers a fantastic dining experience in Milwaukee. They take great care in crafting unique food fusions that are both beautiful and delicious. The owners are warm and welcoming, often socializing with guests and showing genuine care for the community they are a part of. It was wonderful to hear from Sam at the Christmas party and learn more about their team’s passion for providing a high-quality and fun dining experience. Additionally, their commitment to partnering with local organizations to serve and support Milwaukee’s underserved communities is truly inspiring.

    We enjoyed a nice birthday meal before a show. Service was attentive, prompt and friendly. My guest enjoyed her avocado bowl; I liked my Baja Fish Tacos. All good!

    Merriment Social is one of our favorite go-to restaurants in the area - a fun atmosphere with consistently good food. We try different things on the menu almost every time we go and have never been disappointed with our selections. The servers are so nice and always provide great service. Highly recommend checking this place out if you’ve never been.

    Food was very bland. The oil used to make fries, shrimp, and chicken was old.
