Amazing burger! Wow it was one of the most memorable burger I've had so far…read more Granted that I'm also working at The Ritz Carlton (at different location) but seriously the burger I've had was bomb! I've had the Aloha Burger cooked rare with fries. The wagyu patty blend was juicy, delicious and cooked to perfection according to what I love, little bloody. The pineapple, sweet & spicy aioli and the buns were so well complimenting each other. The fries were awesome and so tasty as well. The ambiance was beautiful right by the beach and very casual. Wonderful and delightful service by Miyako, She was kind, cordial and it made it even better that I now working together with their previous chef George Vanyi. But seriously, 5 stars.

Bartender was good but we had to wait about 15 minutes for our drinks after paying upfront because she was having to change out three kegs by herself with no manager or dude to help her out; evidently management at this Ritz-Carlton property. The poor bar tender could have been selling more food and drinks which is the name of the game for business; however no bar-back or even management engagement. The Mai Tai was good when finally received but I was frankly ready to cancel my order. Wife's chocolate coco peanut butter drink was a great dessert first drink but took forever to make. Bartender did apologize for the wait but a little late. I don't mind if not busy but the bartender had to do it all.

Coleslaw was almost tasteless and so much breading of the fish I had to peel it off. The good note- the had great fries. I hope they can step up their game... location is very nice and casual.

Our review for the evening is mixed. Ceviche, clam chowder and Maui Mule, we give a thumbs up…read more The fish and chips at $28 was so salty that my spouse could barely eat one of the two pieces. The Dark and Stormy, which I love at other places, was actually horrible. I asked if the drink could be replaced. I said I would rather have the mule unless the Dark and Stormy could be made right. The drink just came back the same on the second try. I didn't drink it. So, all in all, $40 of the $85 bill down the drain per se. If you pick the right things, you might get lucky.

If you are worried about your appetite well stop…read more Honestly if your absolute brick house of a human or you played offensive line for your local high school order the Whole Fried Rice Plate it's worth the cash and it's something to brag about to your mother in law. ( If you order the half plate you proably played soccer). Also this place has maybe one of the best views in the world for breakfast so just sit down drink your 17 cups of coffee (because your coffee cup will not go empty in this establishment), and enjoy the time with whoever your with. FYI: I know the line is long that's why you get there early or honestly after 10:30, and there are no reservations this is how the place operates and it's great. I know Proably 200 plus people complained about a wait time on this review board and guess what who cares your in Maui you can stare at the ocean in line. Maybe get off your phone talk to each other and enjoy the view. Mahalo

Overhyped esp with dine in. Crazy wait times, so we ordered to go and sat on the grass and enjoyed!…read more We went twice, once for the Mac nut pancake and once for a half portion fried rice. We liked the fried rice more than the pancake. The pancake was massive and a lot more than we needed or wanted and after a second day working on it we gave up. The whipped cream disappeared though! We also didn't notice any banana in it either. The fried rice was very good. rice was a tad soggy but the half portion was perfect for 2. It gave the fried rice from nearby Joey's a run for its money but I'd still give the edge to Joey's. Service is great and friendly for the takeout. They include a charge 3% service fee for takeout so whatever you add is additional.

While on our babymoon, I made a reservation for my husband and I to have an early dinner at…read moreMerriman's in Kapalua. All of the reservation times during sunset were taken, so we ate a little earlier but still managed to see the sunset as we were leaving. The views from this restaurant are absolutely breathtaking. We even got to experience a light rain shower followed by a beautiful rainbow while we were there. Our server was Tim, who was beyond kind, attentive, and engaging. He displayed some of the best hospitality I have ever experienced at a restaurant. He made wonderful recommendations and truly made us feel so special celebrating our soon-to-be baby. To start, we ordered the tako (octopus); it was served in the manner in which escargot is - tons of butter and garlic, and paired well with wonderful fresh-baked bread. For our entrées, both my husband and I did a duo where we could pick two smaller portions of the entrée dishes. I did a duo with the fresh lobster and lamb special, while my husband did a duo with the fish pasta special and the curry scallops. All four entrées were absolutely divine, and we thoroughly enjoyed getting to sample a little bit of everything from the menu. To wrap things up, we had to try the infamous pineapple macadamia nut bread pudding with salted caramel, and they even gave us a complementary dessert for our babymoon, which was their take on a s'more. Both desserts were phenomenal, but I could have easily eaten two helpings of the pineapple macadamia nut bread pudding. If you find yourself in Maui and have the opportunity to make a reservation at Merriman's in Kapalua, I cannot recommend it enough as this was one of those meals that my husband and I will be talking about for a very long time.

For starters, the tako (octopus) escargot (instead of snails) was so good! Ceviche was also great. I had the highly recommended shrimp and pork chow fun for entree. It's slightly different from the Chinese style chow fun in the sauce. The shrimp were cut up in small pieces. The pork was actually spicy sausage, so it should've been more specific on the menu. The sausage made the dish greasier and saltier than it has to be. I didn't like it. My husband had the pork quesadilla that had great flavors but a bit soggy. Daughter had the ahi tuna. She's had a lot of tuna dishes on this trip, but didn't like this dish as much especially the wasabi soy sauce. Son had the crispy pork shank, and that was very good! Falling off the bone tender, nice tropical salsa to balance the rich flavors. The bread pudding with ice cream was a lovely finish. Service was excellent.

Best meal in Maui by far!…read more Tonight we experienced the most incredible dinner since we have been in Maui. Our amazing server Nick recommended we get the whole fish; he said to trust him as it is cooked over a charcoal oven. Well, Nick was right... we have had cooked fish from all over the world and nothing was as exceptional in flavor and size as this fish! It came with two sides; we ordered the mashed potatoes and corn and let me just say the corn was phenomenal and award winning! We topped our meal with the banana cream pie and it blew us away! Also, the cocktail menu and wine menu is exceptional. We started with the Ua Kapalua (jalapeño cucumber tequila) and it's better than any drink at any Los Angeles hot spot. The wine we ordered after was a Spanish wine that paired perfect with our meal. Coming back on this trip and asking for Nick as our server again! 5 star service and 5 star food
