   We’ve been huge fans of Merriman’s on the Big Island for almost two decades. This was our first dining experience at Merriman’s Kauai, and our meal — from start to finish — was five star! From the Ono crudo and beet salad paired with the oh-so-delicate but satisfying buttermilk biscuits to the perfectly grilled and seasoned Ono and the Hawaiian macadamia Shutome (Hawaiian Swordfish), every bite was perfection. Of course, we finished with Merriman’s famous Hawaiian Chocolate Purse and local Kauai coffee. If you appreciate excellent, locally-sourced and locally-inspired food, Merriman’s is at the top of our list!

   Reasonable meal, but not to the standard of other Merrimans we have visited. Both of us ordered the Chateaubriand off the specials menu. Didn’t realize that it was not the Chateaubriand that had been served until the bill was presented when we noticed that we were charged around $30 more for the filet than we should have been for the chateaubriand. That was sorted out with our waiter, although there was a veiled suggestion that it was our fault for not noticing. As we left, we heard another table questioning their bill.

   Wonderful dining experience. Our Ahi and Mahi Mahi were perfectly prepared and our starter salads were tasty. Our server was attentive and warm without being too much. The ambiance is delightful. We always eat at Merriman's in Maui each year and here on Kauai as well. Well done Merriman's!

    The food was great but the live music was way too loud. The waiter had to shout the menu specials and we could barely hear him.
