With the name Merriman above the door and a location within a stone s throw of other Oahu culinary heavyweights I was confident this would be a great meal and was not disappointed. It was surprisingly easy to score a Saturday evening reservation and my party and I arrived an hour ahead to enjoy the bar. Everything there exceeded expectations and I ll be back for the incredible rye-based cocktail on offer. Dinner service was among the best on Oahu; the staff cares and works hard. All the food was on-point but a day later nothing stands out as a signature dish. And we tried a lot of them. Will definitely be back, but may stick to the happy hour.
