    Our meal was outstanding. Four of us had dinner and although expensive, every bite was worth it. Good service provided by Sylvia. The burrata salad, Kauai shrimp, steak, and ahi tuna all extremely delicious.The dessert Bombe and chocolate soufflé were both wonderful too The surf was rough- so the walk down the steps to look for mantas did not reveal any in the light set up. However, all in all, this was a great fancy dinner for our last night in Hawaii !

    Extraordinary and wonderful. The complexity of flavours in just beautifully constructed dishes is something to experience. The service, from our welcome to Katheryn, our server to kitchen and elegantly prepared dishes .. what more can I say but if you get a chance to go to Merrimans Waimea.. go. Why don’t they have a Michelin star ? ⭐️ thank you for a perfect evening

    My favorite on the island. I love the food, the service and Thor, the manager. Nothing impacts the quality of the food or the experience. I’ve had other high end, expensive island restaurants tell me that they were off bc it’s a busy week. Meridia is imperturbable. Their commitment to great food and great service never waivers. Micheal was our server the last few times we were in and he is excellent!

    Our experience from the food to the service was wonderful! (Linda was outstanding) We had the New York Strip & Pork chop accompanied with the house salad and shrimp with delightful desserts! We were excited to be seated with a view of the water and the ambiance was lovely! We loved it so much that we already booked another dinner here during our week vacation!
