    We had an excellent experience. When we arrived. They already had the highchair, crayons and kids menu for our son. The table was set for us. We didn’t have to wait a minute and then they quickly brought us water and took our order. They had delicious ribs and macadamia nut crusted fish And then at the end of the meal they surprised me with a slice of piña colada cake for my birthday. Service, outdoor dining with a view, and food was all outstanding. Would 10/10 recommend.

    This is a fabulous place to come for great food and dine with friends and family. Today, we celebrated our company holiday luncheon. Most of the guests had never dined here, and was super happy with the atmosphere, lunch selections and of course, the amazing servers and staff. Mahalo Merriman’s for making our luncheon special.

    The service is outstanding! We shared a pork, pineapple and jalapeño pizza and ahi tacos. The pizza was delicious and perfect for one person. They are wood fired pizzas and thin crust. We loved it! The ahi tacos were fantastic too. There were three of them and on the small side but delicious. We ended with the coconut cream pie and it was mouth watering. The atmosphere is wonderful; right on the water and you feel like you’re floating on it. There was live music playing and she was fantastic. A relaxing and peaceful lunch, at a beautiful spot.
