    Great service from Ally. Views and ambience were spectacular. Ocean views aplenty. Food was pretty good. Nothing inventive or spectacular, but solid. They really push their Mai Tais which were very tart with a thick and super sweet foam which reduces the size of the cocktail by a good amount. Not even close to others I’ve had in Waikiki.

    The food was amazing, and the service was incredible! Our server Mike and the rest of the staff were above and beyond incredible! The manager Diva is also very on top of everything in that restaurant and is so concerned that everything goes perfect on the table, and it did! Thank you, Diva, and Mike, and all the rest of the people that were involved in our excellent dining situation.

    WOW! 5 STARS all the way around!! From the moment we sat down and took in the amazing view to then meeting our server Sarah we knew we were in for an amazing dining experience. Everything Sarah recommended to us was delicious!! The cocktails so refreshing! The entrees mouth watering. I had the flat iron steak special and my husband had the ginger pesto catch of the day. Both entrees were cooked to perfection with the best flavors! They were DELICIOUS! Sarah was an absolute delight!! Her smile lit up the room every time she interacted with us. She provided 10 star customer service! We can’t wait to return in late February to enjoy another amazing dining experience and you bet we will be asking for Sarah!!

    Was pleasantry surprised at the overall experience being that it is a clothing store first! Food and the wine list were really good! After hearing about the coconut shrimp app, we had to have it, and enjoyed it! I was so happy to see blue crab/ avocado salad as a main entree and loved it. Don’t see it around much at all. We also had the Chilean sea bass and the ribs and they were excellent too. Service was outstanding and the drinks were innovative and delicious.

    Merriman's Ward is definitely our first preferred spot for wino wine share get togethers. Food's fantastic and approachable and the corkage is still wino friendly compared with other places that have corkage charges set to discourage bringing special bottles to share with friends. We enjoyed a 3 hour commiseration over a bottle of Radio Silence! Servers were attentive but not intrusive--they let us do our wine share thing; very nice and appropriate wine glasses. All in all a place not to be missed. Thanks and mahalo again Merriman's Ward!!
