Restaurants near Mauna Kea Beach

My wife and I went here to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. I requested a nice table, if available, and Meridia did not disappoint. We had a great table (and view as the sun was setting) and had an incredible waitress, Elizabeth. She made the whole evening even more special… thank you E!

We were tired from touristing and arrived early for our reservation but they were able to seat us right away. Not on the patio sadly. I have no idea how you get a table there. Server was very good and attentive, and the food was great. We shared the spring rolls I had the ribs. Given it’s $32 for 6 and only $39 for 12, I went for the full rack so to have leftovers for tomorrow’s dinner (eating out in Hawaii is NOT cheap. We only go out ever 2-3 nights) My wife had the prawn spaghetti squash dish which also is a generous portion and had some leftovers No room for dessert. Fairly efficient, I think we were out of there in an hour.

We had sushi which was excellent. They have a more limited but everything we had was delicious. We had a white Spanish alberino wine and Malasada for dessert. Our server was excellent and very personable

Dinner on the beach. Very casual and what you might expect - casual atmosphere with beautiful beach scenery.

The property is beautiful and so expensive. The Restaurant vibe couldn’t be more beautiful. You walk down the path and see the manta rays feeding. The staff is relaxed, but still attentive and very friendly. The menu was more innovative than other restaurants I’ve seen on the island.
