    Michael, our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and also anticipated our needs. A seasoned server that went above and beyond to assure guest satisfaction. We loved the grilled sea bass. Excellent! Will return to dine again when the new chef Soto presents his new menu. Chef Soto came out to say Aloha and chatted with us. We will be back!

    Stunning setting at the Westin Hāpuna Beach. Meridia’s food was superb, with menu additions from new chef from Greece. Outstanding, beautiful, amazing views. Generous (huge) portion of short ribs. Donna was over the top helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Hāpuna beach views never fail and we landed a million dollar sunset that evening. Thank you Westin.

    The menu on Open Table differs from the offering at the restaurant. The presentation was pretty, but overall the food was so-so.

    First, the food is excellent. However, make sure you come at 6:15 of 6:30. The flies will attack your food and make dining miserable. Our server should have moved us, because we were waving our napkins to avoid the vsragee we of flies. I also was so sad, because this was our 50th Anniversary dinner and it was ruined. On the plus side the manager did offer to make it right. (After, I complained about the flies and ruination of our special celebration.). So, Overall the food is excellent, but the service and attention to their guests needs work. I have eaten here last year and the food was excellent and the service and the ambience was lovely. Darn flies!! And it depends on your server as the waitress made our evening so special.

    Beautiful view, excellent service and food. I would highly recommend this place for dinner. You walk in and there is a lovely smell of fresh baked bread. The kids enjoyed themselves.
