All of the food and the service was fantastic. It is a little pricey but if you can’t pay don’t go. Portions were great for the price couldn’t finish my food. Got the clams and the pho both were amazing to be honest might’ve been the best clams I ever had. Only complaint would be that it was loud but that’s the guests not the restaurant would definitely go back 10/10.

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.

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!!
