Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Covington

Brennan’s is always a good choice for brunch! The dining area started off quiet… but got a bit noisy towards the end. I wish there was better noise absorbing surfaces to help manage the noise levels… my 70+ Father who joined my husband and I for brunch really struggled to hear us and had to keep adjusting his hearing aides to be able to try and enjoy our conversations… The food and service did not disappoint! I had the Crab & Avocado toast with a poached egg on top, my husband had the Duck Confit Hash and my father had the Eggs St. Charles. All were very good! We ordered the Brabant Potatoes for the table…. And as always they were out of this world!!! The coffee was brewed to perfection and the service was impeccable… overall a great meal, just a little noisy.

My basil spaghetti was delicious as was the duck confit eaten by another diner. Another diner had speckled trout which he was unimpressed with. Parts of the fish were undercooked and some parts were overcooked.

We had an amazing experience at Meril. The staff and service were impeccable. The flavor profiles of the dishes were excellent. Strongly suggest Mexican street corn, meatballs, and banana cream pie. We highly recommend dining at Meril.

Meals are always very good. However, the cocktails are super expensive- can get same drinks at other bars for less. Also. disappointed that the restaurant doesn’t validate for complimentary parking if we dine at the restaurant anymore. They now give diners a 50% discount.

Everything was amazing. Our server Mary was the absolute BEST!!! The food was ok but it was me trying new things. I took the recommendations do that’s on me. But I worked definitely go back.
