Restaurants near Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel

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.

Best Japanese food since we were in Kyoto. Well worth a visit to taste fine sake and lovely tasty courses of food. Much cheaper than flying to Japan😉 The menu changes monthly to target the freshest food. Highly recommend. We’ve gone at least 3 times. If given warning, they can accommodate food allergies. My celiac family member was over the moon. Unlike many GF accommodations which remove ingredients with subsequent less tasty food, her GF dishes were delicious! Go for a special experience.

Such a wonderful experience! Tada San, co-owner, led us on a very educational tasting experience of their sake which is made here on Hawai’i Island. The sake was wonderful, his story telling and execution were very insightful. Even the tasting glasses were beautiful. Will definitely be back and bring friends!

Very busy but the manager Bonnie was all over everything. We were early and ended up grabbing dinner at the bar due to a flash rain shower. Jerry the bartender was fantastic and attentive and made exceptional cocktails. Nice happy hour from 5-7.
