My only complaint was that my server didnt pack the extra horseradish sauce that comes with the prime rib. It was so good, and I wish they let me pack my leftovers myself. Also the shrimp app was overcooked and not worth $27. Prime rib was really good tho and a great deal read more

Our uber driver on Wednesday 7/22/2026 recommended Merriman's for their mai tais and lobster pot pie. He said that Merriman's is owned by the same people as Monkeypod, the latter of which my friend and her husband recommended when they went in 11/2024. Unfortunately we weren't able to get a reservation at Monkeypod in the time frame we wanted to eat and when I called, they said to arrive 45-60 mins in advance as a walk in. When I looked up Merriman's on Open Table, they had more availability so we made a reservation for 7:45pm on Thursday 7/23/2026. We arrived a little earlier than 7:45pm and they were able to seat us within a few minutes of arriving. Both of us got the mai tais which had Lilikoi foam. I've never had foam on a mai tai before and the foam made it the best mai tai I've had. For our entrees, my mom got the salmon and I had poke and garlic shrimp (2 apps). The fish for the poke was fresh and they added a small amount of red pepper flakes to keep the heat mild. Poke came with amazing sweet potato chips. The garlic shrimp had the perfect combination or garlic and tomato flavors plus tasty bread. My mom said the salmon was one of the best she's had. Waited was friendly and our food arrived quickly. Would definitely return/recommend! read more

Merriman's used to be my husband and I's go-to spot. We had a magical experience during our first time there while celebrating my husband's birthday, so we started going there around twice a week for about six months straight. We even took family from out of town there once and had a great time as a party of six plus two babies. However, our affinity for Merriman's quickly faded after one of the worst customer service experiences I've had on O'ahu. I made a reservation for my husband, parents, baby nephew, and me for outdoor seating at dinner. I made the reservation for four and added in the comments that we would be four adults and one baby, and required a high chair. When I checked in, I informed the hostess (the short girl with long/thin eyebrows) as a reminder that we needed a high chair, and she confirmed. We waited about 15 minutes past our reservation time to be seated, and when we were, we were given a very small round table with no high chair. So while my mom held my nephew, I went back inside and asked the same hostess for a high chair, again, and mentioned that I requested it on OpenTable. Rather than just saying okay, she takes the time to open my reservation on her computer, and says that I never requested it on OpenTable while rolling her eyes. I'm thinking, even if that was the case, 1) you saw we had a baby with us when we checked in and 2) I've asked for it in person already. In the time she took to open the reservation details on her computer and contradict me, she could have just gotten us the chair. Adding salt to the wound, I guess I was stood there for .02 seconds too long because as soon as she walked away, the other host (the skinny guy with an aloha shirt and a long/straight hair/middle part combo that was reminiscent of Sokka cosplay) goes, "uhhh, can I help you?" in the most insufferable voice possible. Mind you, in the time after we checked in that we waited to be seated, I watched this guy belittle an older woman for at least five minutes by insisting that she didn't have a reservation. Staring straight at his computer and not bothering to look her in the eye, he spoke to her like filth as he insisted that she did not have a reservation with them. She goes, "Are you sure? My name is ____" and he finally relents and tells her he thought her name was something else, and that he sees her reservation now. No apology at all, although he was incredibly rude and the poor woman was clearly in distress. Anyway, once I got back to my seat, the waiter walked by looking curious because we had no high chair and were still having to hold the baby. A few more minutes went by until someone brought it eventually, and it wasn't the hostess. Just wanted to say that the wait staff is generally great (shoutout Ben and Francis, who redeem Merriman's), although inconsistent. We had one time where our entrees came less than five minutes after our appetizer, to which our waiter gave us a "whoops sorry" and carried on. That same night, I had put in our OpenTable note that we were celebrating something special, but no one was aware (of course I could have told our him, but it was for my husband, and he insisted I didn't). The food is also generally great but inconsistent. For a place where you can drop $200 on a dinner for two, you shouldn't have to endure the antics of washed-up high school bullies recreating their glory days before even being seated (we spent $362.99 on the day that happened btw). Especially on O'ahu, where good food is everywhere and many people work hard for their money and to treat themselves, customers deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. I want to love Merriman's, but I've only been there once or twice in the past year because of the disrespect and its inconsistency. For other restaurants fit for a special occasion with great food and customer service, I recommend Fête, located downtown, or Pig and the Lady in Kaimuki! read more

If you're even slightly familiar with the Hawai'i' culinary scene, then you know Peter Merriman is an icon. His original restaurant is a cozy little joint in Waimea on the big island that I love. This Honolulu location has a different, upscale city vibe, but still manages to bring the comfort of the original. Rest assured, it's a total knockout in every way! The menu is unique, local, inspiring, and downright delicious. The interior is charming and bright. Service is top tier. And that famous lilikoi foam mai tai will forever ruin all other mai tais for you. There is simply nothing to critique. To top it all off, they have a spectacular happy hour that runs until 5:30. They often feature live music on the patio too, which is lovely. Make sure to book a reservation - it's always busy. But if you can't get in, consider trying one of Merriman's other restaurants instead. Moku and Monkeypod are slightly more casual, but equally good. The menu at Merrimans is the best, but I actually prefer Monkeypod for the amazing ocean views. Moku is a nice alternative because there is rarely a crowd and it's easier to get to. They all feature similar menus and all serve the one and only mai tai. read more

Located in Ward Village at the southern end of Kaka'ako district. There's tons of free parking in the various garages they have We came specifically to try their Happy Hour menu and we were not disappointed. Large open airy seating area with plenty of staff running around to serve you. The happy hour cocktails a bit small but still satisfyingly refreshing. The food was great, we ordered... Cocktails, Mai Tai and Farm to Table Food... Taro Hummus Kalua pork quesadillas Fish tacos Fish and chips Everything was yummy and a good portion for Happy Hour item. Our waitress Ailee was cheerful and very attentive. She came by often to check on us. While other table staff came by often to clear the table and fill water glasses. They worked together well.

Came here for brunch with the family and they did not disappoint. We asked for outside reservations so we could bring our dog and as soon as we were seated a server brought a bowl of water for the pup! Outside was hot but there was still a breeze. Everyone was happy with what they ordered. I had the chicken pot pie and it was packed with flavor! I also had the corn chowder (despite the weather) and I do not regret it! My boyfriend had the fish and chips and the fish and shrimp were very big pieces! The fries were also on point! We also had people order the smash burger, fish burger, and kalua pig benny (brunch special). Everything looked and tasted great! Service was good and parking is easy in the ward area. Overall very happy with food and service and will be back! read more

Our Merriman's adventure kicked off right -- we slid in just in time for Happy Hour, which immediately set the tone for a winning evening. The table went full appetizer mode: Taro Hummus (fine, not life-changing), Salt and Pepper Fries (absolute perfection -- do not skip these), Kalua Pig Quesadilla (solid), and the Tako with Country Bread, which was so transcendently good that one member of our party said "forget the entrée, I'm having two of these" and just... did that. A bold move. A correct move. Drinks were mostly a delight -- the Pineapple Li Hing Mui Soda was a tasty little tropical adventure -- but the real surprise of the evening was someone else's root beer. A root beer. Somehow the best one any of us had ever tasted. We're still thinking about it. For mains, the Mac Nut Fish (Shutome/Swordfish) was a total knockout, the Cast Iron Chicken earned rave reviews, the grilled fish tacos held their own, and the smash burger was... respectable. Our waitress was an absolute gem -- attentive, warm, and the kind of server who makes you want to tip well and come back soon. Add in the lovely ambiance and solid Happy Hour deals, and Merriman's earns a hearty recommendation -- just make sure you book a reservation! read more

Merriman's located in Ward/Kaka'ako is an elevated Farm to Table restaurant, conveniently located near Whole Foods and Ward parking structures. I expressed that I always wanted to go with my friend, so she was kind enough to take me and make a reservation during the Happy Hour period so we could be thrifty too. Here were my impressions of everything I had this past weekend from most to least favorite: Lobster "Pot Pie" (5/5): For an entree that was $70, I hesitated because I didn't want to be disappointed with 2-3 morsels of lobster. But I was so glad I tried it because they were generous with lobster portions and it was the perfect pot pie crust. "We Mix It How You Like It" Tableside Poke (4.5/5): I was skeptical in how deep in flavor the poke would have when it wasn't premarinated in advance but it was just right. The avo and ono were both underrated ingredients that makes me want to make my own rendition at home. Parmesan Truffle Fries (3.5/5): The crisp to the fries were nice but I prefer my fries to also be more fluffy on the inside. Honorable Mentions (3/5): Roasted Beet & Hirabara Farms Fennel and Ginger Beer, not really much to add, wasn't overly impressed nor disappointed with these items. Overall, Merriman's was great. Nice place for a Friday night dinner. read more

Merriman's is located on the corner of Auahi St. and offers indoor and outdoor seating. We didnt have a reservation so we sat at the Bar. The service is quick and friendly and the best part is they have hooks to put your purse. Merrimans is airy, well lit and welcoming. We ordered the famous Biscuits with butter, so yummy! Followed by the french onion soup- sweet onions, cheese , bread and the beef broth made for an enjoyable taste. Finally the crispy fish, shrimp were tender and flavorful. The best I've had, so worth the cost. It was our first time to Merriman's even though we've been to honolulu serveral times. This will definitely be a regular stop from nowcon. read more

Stopped by for happy hour during a storm with my cousin lol! (This review was from a couple months ago.) Staff were super friendly and didn't have to wait long for a table, likely bc there was a storm. Pretty pricey place but decent for happy hour and special occasions. What we ordered: -Mai Tais: So goooood! I loved the lilikoi cream on top. I'd def order this again! 5/5 -Bread Pudding: My cousin and I shared this and it was amazing! Very tropical take on a classic dessert. The pineapple reallly added a great tang and contrast. 5/5 Overall, really enjoyed my experience here. I'd definitely come back for the food when I'm on the island again! read more

This place is one of my favorite places for happy hour! They are located in Ward Village downstairs of the Anaha building. There's lots of parking all over Ward which is a definite plus. They have lunch, happy hour and dinner. I've come at different times but happy hour is my favorite. Prices vary depending what you get but their prices are pretty standard for the area. They are always busy and it can get loud inside if it's busy and you're trying to have a conversation. They also have outdoor seating. They have their famous pineapple foam mai tai and several drink specials and some of their appetizers for a discount led price for happy hour. The green beans are my favorite appetizer since they're crunchy and the chili sauce isn't too spicy. One of the best things we've had also is their late night $30 special prime rib. It's such a great deal and it's really good! Its only available Sunday-Thursday 8-9pm. It does go quick so you should order it as soon as you sit down. Overall service, food and ambiance are great. It's a great place for a date, business meeting or family get together. ********* Merriman's at Ward Great cocktails and happy hour Def worth going to! read more

This was my second visit. This time it was not happy hour so I ordered from the regular menu. I opted to start with the famous Mai tai. It was perfect as usual, with the Lilikoi foam topper. For my meal I opted for the fish sandwich. Our server really sold me on it because of the delicious house made Kaiser roll it was served on. She was right! I was so happy with this sandwich. The fish was seasoned perfectly, cooked just right, and the roll was perfectly chewy on the outside and springy soft in the middle. This is the first time I've enjoyed a Kaiser roll! One thing to note is that it does not come with fries, so you'll have to order those on the side. This was an enjoyable meal inside a modern and comfortable dining room with lovely city views through the large glass windows surrounding us. read more

Went to Merriman's to celebrate mom's birthday. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Service is attentive and friendly. And they have live music. Happy hour from 3-5:30pm which we made it to just in time. I've been looking for a new fish n chips spot since Likos closed, and I have to say this one was really good! Very crispy and flaky fish with good flavor. Will definitely get again. The green beans have a nice crunch and flavor. I like the macadamia nuts on top for extra crunch as well. I tried the beef bourguignon for the first time. The meat was very tender and flavorful. Kind of reminded me of a fancy beef stew (in a good way). My mom got the cast iron chicken. Portion was very big, those chickens were fed well. Delicious taste and cooked to perfection! For mom's birthday, they gave us complimentary champagne glasses. For dessert they sent an ice cream scoop with a happy birthday message. Well done Merriman's. Will be coming back! read more

Merriman's Honolulu absolutely nailed it. The smash burger was insanely delicious--perfectly crisp edges, juicy center, and packed with flavor. And the chicken pot pie? Hands down one of the most delicious I've ever had. Rich, comforting, and clearly made with care. The vibe is fantastic--relaxed but elevated--and the location couldn't be better. It feels like the kind of place you want to linger in. On top of that, the staff were genuinely wonderful: warm, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Ask for the Wi-Fi password.

This place is definitely a vibe. I went for happy hour, which is decently priced for the area. If you can I recommend sitting outside simply to enjoy the gorgeous weather and outdoor atmosphere but inside is decorated in a trendy, upscale vibe. Plenty of seating. We didn't have a reservation and didn't have to wait. We decided to split some small plates. The fish tacos were good but would not recommend if you're pretty hungry because you only get 2 and the fish piece is quite small; very flavorful though! We also got the hummus with the sweet potato chips which was delicious! They do offer more chips for the dip we had left but we were full by then. Also recommend the current chef's cocktail. It's a twist in a classic marg and comes with tajin on the rim (IYKYK). The service was impeccable. From the greeting at the door to timely delivery of the check, but not rushing to leave once we paid. I'll definitely come back the next time I'm in town read more

I've gone to Merriman's Honolulu on three separate occasions: to celebrate my birthday, to celebrate a job promotion and on a date. I LOVE it here. Their SZECHUAN STIR-FRY GREEN BEANS WITH MAC NUTS is delicious. It's got a nice crunch and a little kick to it. They used to have clams as an appetizer and it was so good especially with the bread! I ALWAYS order their steak Frites because how can you go wrong with some prime sirloin cooked to perfection and rosemary sea salt fries? I did try their CAST IRON ORGANIC CHICKEN a main dish they're known for and it was juicy, flavorful, and big enough to share with another person. I've yet to try their WAIALUA CHOCOLATE PURSE each of the times I went they ran out of it and I was heartbroken. Maybe on the next visit my luck will change. Be sure to check out their menu for specials and I recommend making reservations. If you can, it doesn't hurt to visit during happy hour so you can try more dishes. read more

My friends and I came here on a Thursday evening for dinner. It was a little busy, so we had to wait for a table to become available. We had a stroller with us, and they were able to accommodate the stroller. Food: We started with the bag of biscuits and fries to share. The biscuits were pretty good. Enough to share between 3 adults. The fries were standard and delicious. For my entree, I ordered the mushroom ravioli. While the dish does not come with a lot of ravioli, it is a good sized portion and very good. Service: Since it was busy, service was a little slow. However, everyone at the restaurant was very nice and accommodating since we had a baby with us. Our server was nice and checked up on us regularly. The appetizers came out pretty quick out of the kitchen, but the entrees took longer than expected. TL;DR - Friendly staff and good food. Expect a wait when it's busy! read more

My husband had the Umami burger with truffle fries absolutely loved it I had the mushroom ravioli. Both dishes were flavorful delightful. My husband loved his hamburger and I loved his fries.

I would say each time I visit, the experience has been between four and five stars. I do like the dinner menu more than the lunch/happy hour options. Last visit, we went for lunch, and I ordered their burger because I remembered loving their dinner burger (Umami burger - five stars!). Their lunch burger was still good, but it doesn't compare to the Umami burger. My husband thought the fish and chips were good but average. The desserts were great! My friend got the chocolate purse which was unique - she enjoyed it, but it was a one and done. The bread pudding was amazing! Highly recommend it if you like bread pudding. Service was good!

Every time I've walked by this place it always seemed too intimidating to check out simply because it's part of one of the first luxury condos built in Kaka'ako. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the prices were pretty much at par with other nice eateries. Dylan was our server and he was accommodating and helpful when we asked for a desert recommendation (bread pudding was ono and not too sweet). We both had yummy the Roasted Beet & Hirabara Farms Fennel Salad, which didn't go over well with my niece who cannot eat cilantro (it was in the dressing, which she had on the side so was provided another dressing). As it turned out there was cilantro & mint in the salad so she had to pick out the cilantro. Thankfully, I love cilantro so I gobbled all of it up. The goat cheese made the salad even more substantial. On the side we ordered the "Bag 'o Biscuits" with a rather runny, but tasty, jam. Runny or not the two were a delightful combination. I like the ambiance of this place so I think I'll be back. Thanks, Dylan!! read more

This is a higher end restaurant located near the Ward Village shopping mall. Lovely restaurant with super nice staff and nearby parking lot makes this an easy to get to destination. We ordered the beet salad to start and then the chicken pot pie and Merriman's Saimin. The beet salad was refreshing and light. I loved the Saimin dish! The slow roasted pork was super tender and well seasoned. The crunch from the bean spouts was a nice complement to the sautéed mushrooms and bok choy. The broth was a tad bit on the salty side and it typically comes with chili oil but I was able to order it without. The noodles were cooked just right as well. My friend enjoyed the chicken pot pie as well. A friendly and relaxed environment. I would definitely come back! read more

Merriman's was a lovely way to end my time in Hawaii on a high note! A bit of a splurge, but you definitely get what you pay for in terms of an elevated dining experience. I started with the oysters, and these set the tone right away; easily the best oysters I've ever had, and I say this despite my Long Island pride. They were so fresh and perfectly balanced, with only simple garnishes (lemon, black pepper champagne vinaigrette) to let the oysters do most of the talking. My main was one of the catches of the day. The fish itself was prepared perfectly; the sauce it came in was a bit heavy/oily but still added nice flavor with a little bit of zest. And the veggies that came with the dish were fine. All in all, a great meal, but I was expecting a bit more in terms of presentation and sauce for my entree. I got an old fashioned as well, props for a solid cocktail! And service was phenomenal, Tim was on top of his game the entire evening. Worth the splurge for sure, I'd go back to try other dishes! read more

We had a small bridal shower for our friend this past weekend. Merriman's reserved us a quiet area outside to give us a little privacy. A perfect spot for our small bridal shower. They also provided us with champagne to make a toast. Such great service. The appetizers were all delicious, but my favorite was the tako escargot. For our entree, we had their surf and turf special with their macadamian nut crusted opah and steak. The fish was fresh and soft and add that to a perfectly cooked steak - Delicious! To top off the night, for dessert, we had the bread pudding and chocolate purse. The chocolate purse looks like a small lau lau, but the outer shell is like a pastry that wraps the dark chocolate inside.

Beautiful setting and ambience combined with delicious food and excellent service makes Merriman's worth a visit at lunch! Had the taro hummus appetizer with raw veggies and sweet potato chips along with the beet salad as my lunch, plus sneaked a few fries from my dining companions smash burger plate. The combo definitely filled me up as the hummus plate had more veggies than the salad. Together, great flavors and so filling! Fran C. devoured the chicken pot pie, declaring it was the best he ever ate! Now that's high praise. Since it's a limited menu item, order it when you can! The double patty smash burger was also declared a winner by Cathy I., as she claimed it juicy and oozing with melted cheese under a bun cover. The fries, crispy and seasoned with rosemary salt were munched on with delicious abandon. For dessert, we shared a coconut lime sorbet that was light and refreshing. Located across Whole Foods Kakaako, there's free parking in the Nordstrom/TJ Maxx lot. Would love to come back and hope they can add more dairy-free, plant-based items to the menu! read more
