I had to talk to the manager Jake due to an issue that we had with the gift cards over at Dukes. He was great. He straightened everything out and we watched him and he’s a very much hands-on manager really helping out his staff in that restaurant. We also had Stephanie as a waitress and she was wonderful. Love this restaurant.

Took my family here on my second dining experience at Mala. It exceeded expectations once again and is now a favorite of my family’s as well. We were a table of 7 and had excellent service. Everyone of us devoured our dishes, including dessert. A trip to Maui is not complete without dining at Mala. Mahalo Joe and staff!

Dined for lunch. Mango BBQ salad and Caesar salad were both wonderful. Definitely make a reservation, it was super busy when we arrived and the couple ahead of us was told there would be no tables available for 30-45 minutes. It is casual during the day; you’re on the beach. I dined here several years ago and enjoyed it! We’re actually headed to Dukes now for breakfast!

We have eaten here before when we enjoyed the food more. 2 children’s orders and 2 adult fish and chips and 2 salads, no drinks was over $200. Not a particularly good value. I had an injured knee and difficulty walking and requested indoor seating instead of on the sand which was difficult for me with my injury. Hostess denied my request. We dined at Dukes (same owners) a few days earlier and had a better experience.

Merriman’s has never let us down. We had meatless entrees and we both ate every bite. B ordered pasta from the Starters/Apps menu and I had a mushroom pot pie special. I struggle finding words to adequately describe the flavors, textures, and beauty of the pot pie. A blend of mushrooms and each flavor stood out. The crust was brilliant; absolutely perfect. The dough was stretched over a cast iron pie plate and it had risen probably 4” over the mushrooms inside. And the pastry was delicious. Honestly, a top 5 dining experience of a lifetime of fine food. But salads, yes. Off of the menu, but perfect. Generous portion of very fresh everything. I had the blue cheese crumbles on mine and B went without dairy. Mango, avocado, tomato, greens dressed with subtle citrus dressing. Perfect.
