    Our dinner at Sea House was delicious! This is our third time dining there and it did not disappoint. We asked to be seated at a table near the window and were able to watch the sunset. We ordered the early bird specials and both the filet mignon and the macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi were to die for. The service was a little slow, but our waitress was friendly and the food and view made up for it. Already looking forward to visiting again next year!

    Merriman’s does not disappoint! The service is top notch and the food is amazing. I would like to note that I let the server know of my gluten allergy and he explained all the options that were available gluten free. When the food was delivered, it was announced that my meal was gluten free twice! It made me feel great that everyone involved was well aware. The surroundings are beautiful and the food is always fresh and delicious. We have been here to Merriman’s in Kapalua several times and the food and service are consistently excellent. I highly recommend dining here if you are looking for an amazing restaurant.

    Chad was our server. Is was great, very patient and kind. He gave us solid recommendations. We had the tomato burrata salad. Awesome! Then the scallops which were ok. It we didn’t like the sauce. Finally the fresh fish of the day. Opacapaca. That was amazing. For dessert we had the baked Maui. Probably the best desert we have had in a year or more.
