We recently ate twice at Merida located in the Hapuna Beach Hotel ion the Big Island of Hawaii. The quality of the food and presentation was absolutely wonderful. We met the new chef from Greece who use to work at Robert Deniro’s Tribecca Grill in NYC. His additions to the menu are innovative and the Paella was the best we’ve ever had. I’d give the restaurant a 5 star review.

Wonderful food and service! Elizabeth was a wonderful server, very friendly and patient with our indecisiveness. Entrees were well portioned and flavorful, sides were fresh and excellent quality. View at sunset is beautiful, staff is very friendly. Will return!

Best Mediterranean restaurant on the Big Island.
A must stop for en elegant dinner with breathtaking views of the sunset. I’ve never had a better service experience in my life, I have to admit service is top notch! My server Erin was very professional and knowledgeable about the menu which I really appreciate it a lot.
I ordered the Carbonara Tartufata and this appetizer took my attention out of all the menu selection. The pasta was fresh made to order and the richness of the sauce is still memorable.
Crudo was out of this world, definitely worth the try!
The cuttlefish ink Tagliolini with the local Kona shrimp and clams was exceptional, topped with Bottarga zest on top made this dish a 10.
Finally for dessert we got the Baklava with white chocolate pistachio cream and ouzo gelato!
The manager reached to our table to make sure everything was good, something to at you don’t see often to resorts!
Compliments to the chef and all the stuff.

Meridia is a very beautiful, intimate restaurant with a glorious view of Hapuna Beach. Sandra in reception is exemplary!! She traversed the extra mile to ensure we received a quieter table and specifically went out of her way to check on us throughout dinner in hopes her curating us by low key dinner neighbors was a success. Sandra is an absolute gem!!! Hence, when I located several bones in my grilled Branzino Seabass she was the first person I communicated with as she is efficient and ultra professional. It was quickly communicated to management and the chef and they kindly took care of the entrée and checked on me after the coughing debacle. The seabass, albeit was tasty and the kobocha squash bisque was delicious, although I might request the Smoked Paprika Pepitas on the side as they are quite pungent. The Meridia team was quite kind in helping curate a meal my spouse could enjoy. The salad was also delicious and the server provided excellent service. Our only constructive feedback would be some guests may prefer a quiet, intimate dinner with minimal conversation with their server. Our server was very kind, extremely energetic and clearly enjoys conveying extensive details about Hawaii, origin of the food and appears to appreciate connecting and talking at length, which is lovely if one is seeking that experience. If one is not, it can be a bit depleting and one finds themselves bracing each time the server returns. It appeared many people surrounding us enjoyed a tour guide server experience, however, we recommend reading the room and the guests to ensure they have the experience they are seeking. We definitely recommend Meridia, it is a lovely experience with tasteful fare and we were extremely pleased we chose this location over The Manta at the Mauna Kea. Sandra was an absolute stand out and truly made our experience. Thank you, Sandra!!!

If you’re not a regular, don’t expect the same level of service. Our server seemed rushed when speaking with us, yet spent a generous amount of time chatting with other tables. We weren’t guided through the menu, and no one checked in on how we were enjoying our meal. We eventually requested extra bread because it was phenomenal, but it never arrived.
On the bright side, the sunset views are truly stunning, and the fish of the day was full of flavor and a definite must-order. You can’t beat a fresh, local catch. The ribeye was good, though slightly dry, and the wine was bold and perfectly paired with our meal.
While some tables were receiving hugs and bottles of wine, our experience felt like an afterthought. This restaurant is located within the Westin Hapuna Resort, and offers both valet and self-parking. Reservations are a must, just be aware that the experience may vary depending on who you are and how often you visit.

We had such an incredible evening at Meridia. Our Server Michael was attentive and informative; the food was excellent. The staff greeted us as we entered, and thanked us as we left. Chef Sotirios joined us at the table for a wonderful conversation and updated us on new happenings at the restaurant. What an evening; simply one of our favorite spots on the Kohala Coast!

Amazing setting with stunning views of the sunset. That alone makes it worth it.
Food is good, but not as amazing as you would expect for the price point. The fresh bread is a nice touch.
Service was okay.
There also was a piano player which was another nice touch. Overall we had a good time here!
