    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

    There was a total of 8 in our party. It was a last minute reservation for a group of agents that I was hosting. It was a perfect spot to host weary travelers on their first day on the island and to break bread w/them. We had the following food: - Kalua Pork Nachos (SOOOOO GOOD!) - Lumpia, not traditional Filipino lumpia, but what a great interpretation. Entrees: - Vegan Coconut Curry, I had this and it was EXCELLENT - Seared Ahi - Burger - Wedge Salad w/a side of Fries - Poke Bowl Desert: Malasadas - the overall consensus was that they were even better than Leonards! All of the food was fantastic, great quality and super tasty. Service was awesome! Our Server was wonderful and support staff too. Everyone was warm, welcoming and friendly. Mahalo Plenty for helping me to make quite an impression!

    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!

    Absolutely love this place. Only 4 stars for food, though...because the dish I love the most, avo mac nut salad, is no longer on the menu. It was my favorite! At least they have returned the lava cake, also TDF. Truly the food is outstanding but bring the salad back, please.

    The food was excellent but quite expensive compared to the amount that was served. Same goes for the wine. We had the Surf & Turf and it was just a small piece of filet mignon with 2 Shrimp, a soup spoon size of mashed potatoes and about 6 pieces of broccoli. It tasted really good, no question about that, but was too pricey. The place itself is quite nice with a good service and a nice Bar Area.
