With more than 10 years of experience as a professional writer, Megan holds a degree in Mass Media from her home state of Minnesota. After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
The beautiful Hawaiian Islands are known for many things, but our captivating coast, picturesque panoramic views, signature sunsets, and fantastic food certainly reign supreme. When you can combine all four, something magical happens — and that is certainly the case at Merriman’s. Located in Kapalua, this renowned oceanfront restaurant has it all, and absolutely must be on your Hawaiian Island dining bucket list.
Featuring a simply stunning setting overlooking the bay within the Kapalua Resort as well as mouthwatering Hawaiian-inspired cuisine, Merriman’s Kapalua is a must-visit on the island of Maui.
The opulent restaurant features spectacular views, a modern open-air bar, an oceanfront lounge complete with a fire pit, and both indoor and outdoor seating – though we’re partial to dining on their stunning patio.
A pioneer in the farm-to-table restaurant philosophy, Peter Merriman is easily one of the most well-known chefs throughout the Hawaiian Islands, and serves only the freshest meals: at least 90 percent of what’s served at his restaurants are either locally grown or caught using sustainable methods.
With locations and concept restaurants found on the four main Hawaiian Islands, Merriman’s is a household name in the Aloha State, but it’s generally agreed upon that the Kapalua location is by far the most stunning.
Serving up incredible seafood dishes, mouth-watering desserts and featuring an award-winning wine list, Merriman’s has got it all in terms of mouthwatering fare in a luxurious, yet comfortable, atmosphere.
Yelp reviewers agree that the four dollar sign designation is accurate – but the food, view, and experience is worth every penny whether you’re celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or simply being in Hawaii.
