Our server was outstanding! He not only provided great service but also referred to us by our names the entire night. The food was amazing as always! Merriman's is definitely a favorite!

Wow! Everything we had heard about how wonderful it is — and more. We can't wait to return because the extraordinary food was only surpassed by the terrific service. (Thank you, Carmen!) And thanks to Brendan — it was so great to talk with you! You are leading a great team there!

Fabulous meal, great service, beautiful view! Enjoyed the macadamia crusted fish and the chocolate espresso Crème Brûlée!

Miguel provided an outstanding service experience. Before our appetizers were served, he had memorized each of our party of 6 names. He used them in a genuine manner and it really had a very positive impact on our 2+ hour casual dinner. Miguel knew the menu like he had created it. He even had specific suggestions for how to enhance various dishes. We've eaten at Merriman's every year for 15 years other than 2020. This was a top visit!

Caution! We are visitors and fully respect the tipping culture here. However, what happened was completely unacceptable. When it came time to pay, the server grabbed my friend’s phone to process the payment and selected the highest tip rate himself—without asking, without pausing, and with zero regard. That’s not just rude, it’s outright inappropriate. My friend was too shocked to respond in the moment, but this behavior is unacceptable by any standard. .

Visited on Monday May 18 for early supper. Always a must visit when in Maui. This was the first time that we were underwhelmed. We were seated in the lower level shaded wind tunnel on the right side of the restaurant with many tables available in main dining area as it was so early. The mai tais were not the same as a few years ago but the big disappointment was that my Ono entree, though the fish was great and served hot the broccoli was cold and rice was luke warm at best. My partner had the falafels and they were also served barely lukewarm. Bad timing on the chef’s part. Service was great. The next day we went monkey pod for lunch and had the mai tai of our dreams and the food was amazing and served fresh and hot. We will skip Mwrrimans next time and opt for Monkey Pod and Mamas fish house instead.

My Wife and I are foodies and I could not wait to share the good review of this place. I am critical and have left 5 star reviews before but I think this place has raised the bar for me.
I can not rave more about the location, views and the sunset at this place. The point and the way the waves break are unreal.
The food is local and top notch with attention to detail. One of those experiences where everything is so good you cant even remember what you just consumed and are just mesmerized. lol. - Best Mai-Tail on the islands to boot.
Service was top-tier. My wife and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary dinner/day here. This was probably one of our top restaurant experiences -- all time! 100 percent would recommend!

My wife and I came here for a few drinks on Friday night. We made a reservation on OpenTable for bar seating as we didn’t want to take up a normal table just for drinks. They offer complimentary valet which was awesome as we didn’t have to worry about finding a place to park. Their bar area was great, had plenty of seating, and had incredible views! The entire restaurant was opened up so the open-air feel made the atmosphere even better. The two bartenders took great care of us and crafted some incredible cocktails. My wife ordered the No Ka 'Ol, which was made with Ocean Vodka, fresh lime, thai basil, kauai honey-lilikoi syrup - I ordered the Original Mai Tai, which I was told was boozier than the Merriman’s Mai Tai. Both cocktails were fashioned to perfection and tasted incredible. We decided to order a lite bite so we tried their Beef & Bacon Sliders. The starter had two little sliders on a brioche bun, with cornichon, blue cheese aioli, and house-made Moloka‘i sweet potato chips. The flavor of it all was amazing and the portion was just enough for us to snack on. We finished up by ordering one more round of cocktails. I switched it up this time and ordered the Merriman’s Mai Tai as I wanted the famous Kauai honey-lilikoi foam topper. As you could except, it was phenomenal! Overall, our experience was incredible and we cannot wait to come back! I would highly recommend making a reservation if you’re wanting to dine here, even if you’re just wanting to sit at the bar. Most, if not all, of the seats up at the bar were reserved so I’m not how well they could accompany walk-ins.

I'll start by saying that the food and drinks were amazing. Everything was perfectly cooked and they are catering to allergies. Live music was very nice as well. However, there were two negatives. It took 1.5 hours after the appetizers to receive the main course so be prepared for a long night. On a windy evening, it gets cold very fast including the food even when served on warmed plates so bring a jacket. A little disappointing to eat a cold $78 filet mignon but it still tasted great.
