We don't get reservations when we visit this restaurant, because we can always get a table every time. Today as any other days, we were seated right away. Waiter was very friendly and prompt with orders. This restaurant is not the cheapest in town. I really don't mind paying for the food, as long as its made properly. The reason for 3 stars on the food, I wasn't impressed with what I've got today. Although the steak was flavored, the meat was too well done and tough for what I wanted. The fries shouldn't be included with the steak since it get soggy from the juice of the meat. My salad was too soggy as well, too much dressing for such a small amount of lettuce/ingredients in them. Butter should be serve room temperature not hard so it's easy to spread on the biscuit.

Update: we came back to try its happy hour menu. The farm to table cocktail of water Mellon and tequila was quite good. Now I don’t feel guilty drinking alcohol anymore because it’s now “farm to table” fresh! The food was tasty as before, with creative combination of ingredients. The Kailua pork quesadilla served with poi and kimchee was a good example of how Merriman’s made it work. Our server was superb and the ambience was relaxing and comfortable. Not only our server was good, I also noticed how every employee was really into his or her job. The management did a very nice job training and motivating its staff. We sat in front of the kitchen and had a great view how the kitchen and the wait staff all working together. Kudos! The food was excellent and the price was reasonable. The taro hummus appetizer was one of the best hummus we have had and the it was garnished with bits and pieces of fresh vegetables, a great combination. The burger was very tasty (but just a tad on the salty side) and it came with some very good fries. The buttermilk dressing for the fries was one of the best. The fish sandwich was also quite good. The Nerrimen’s Maitai was just okay. We will return to try other dishes and its desserts.

Service was extremely good, however other than the lobster baked pie everything else was either too bland- too salty and too pricey. The seasoning definitely need refining. It wasn’t satisfying and left a bad after taste. After dinner even after all those food we ordered, we went to grab a refreshing bite afterward. Very nice decor and crowded with people though .

We went para sailing and were looking for a restaurant within walking distance from the slips and yachts and ocean. I found Merriman's. We made it during happy hour. Everything we had was absolutely delicious! We had the green beans, fish and chips the Kahlúa Quesadilla And the tacos . The green beans were our favorite! All very yummy! Service was awesome! As well, we were just there for a quick bite to eat! Highly recommend!

Finally stopped by for lunch for two today. Seated promptly and service throughout was efficient and very friendly. Wife had a mai tai, which she liked, but didn’t loved in its defense she leans sweet and this was pleasantly tart, so I thought it was great. She had the special which was salmon in a soy, chili and seasame oil sauce with fresh noodles - all outstanding - she loved the sauce! I had the fish sandwich, which was probably the best fish sandwich I’d ever had! Fish wasn’t even battered, but grilled. Fish was super fresh and the bun was even delicious, all along with a nice spicy aioli. All in all, been meaning to come here for a while and will definitely be back!
