Fan of Merrit Canteen for years but really not DDD worthy. Waste of time.. Go back to the Black Duck in Wesport at least that was not as bad..
ReplyDeleteOMG! Merritt Canteen is SOOO SOO SOOO OVERRATED! Guy: DON'T waste your time! Of course when you've grown up with Merritt Canteen all of your life, OF COURSE you will think that it's worthy to be featured on a show like DDD LOL! So embarrassing! smh.
ReplyDeleteWe waited in line for over an hour at lunchtime - the staff knew that you weren't coming but let us wait anyway. I won't be going back for a long time, nothing on the menu is that special anyway!
