The 39 best spots for oysters in Maui

Mala Ocean Tavern completely exceeded our expectations! The food and service were absolutely top-notch. I had the filet mignon, which was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. My fiancé ordered the scallops, and they were perfectly seared and bursting with flavor. To top it all off, we finished with the affogato, which was the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable meal. The atmosphere and ocean views made the experience even more special. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an incredible dining experience in Maui!

My partner and I have been to most restaurants in and around Lahaina, and we were so happy to have found Mala! We’re both gluten-free and total foodies, and it’s rare to find a place that delivers on both flavor and service — but Mala absolutely did. Our server Thomas was the BEST — friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive. He knew all the specials, kept our glasses full, and made sure our table was always clean without hovering. The food was outstanding, and Thomas went above and beyond by helping us secure Mother’s Day / birthday reservations seven months in advance! He even introduced us to Sergio, the manager, who took amazing care of us as well. Everything about our experience was perfect — the food, the service, the vibe. If you’re anywhere near Lahaina, do yourself a favor and pull up to Mala for a fantastic meal and some of the best service you’ll find anywhere.

Came here on a Saturday night , day after Halloween, place was half full. I’ve heard a lot about Mala from family & friends , knew i was in for a treat. My wife, 25 weeks pregnant , eats plant based and there were several options for her. Our server, Carlos, was soft spoken but confident & gave us great pointers - he’s someone you just know you can trust. I got the ceviche w the sweet potato Chips , my wife got the Brussel sprouts to start, both were just fantastic! The brussel sprouts were cooked to perfection & the ceviche i got was in this rich coconut broth that i ended up drinking. Really refined and confident flavors. For our main dish, my wife got the vegan curry & i was stuck between the pork shank (Carlos said it falls off the bone) and the pan seared mahi mahi (which i ended up getting). While the portion size of the mahi mahi was on the smaller side, the actual dish was huge — Yukon potatoes and a great ginger sauce with mushrooms and carrots - just really full flavor. Id like to note that i got their version of a Mai tai as well as a gin drink that were some of the best cocktails I had during our trip. Pricing was fair and the food quality was just superb - couple that with Carlos service and the incredible waterfront views — you got yourself a fantastic meal . Would RUN back. Also, their sambal was SPICY!

Enjoyed our ocean front breakfast. The pork belly eggs Benedict was delicious but it had a little too much fat. The classic eggs Benedict was good. Big portion so come hungry. French toast was good with a twist of purple yam gellato. Aloha!

Would not come back here. We had dinner here last night for my husband’s birthday, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. Our server was wonderful—warm, attentive, and accommodating—and our table by the ocean was beautiful. However, the food quality and flavor fell far short of expectations, especially for a restaurant so highly rated. It honestly ruined what was meant to be a special evening; we didn’t even feel like ordering dessert to celebrate. For starters, we ordered the Ube bread and the Poisson Cru. The bread arrived cold in the middle, suggesting it had been reheated rather than freshly prepared. The Poisson Cru lacked the salt, lime, and chili flavor described on the menu—it tasted mostly like fish in plain coconut milk. We then ordered the Caesar salad and the Surf & Turf. The salad was decent, though overly dressed. The Surf & Turf, however, was the most disappointing dish of the night. The filet mignon had no seasoning or flavor, the octopus was bland, and the potatoes on the side resembled unseasoned breakfast potatoes rather than a dinner accompaniment. Given the restaurant’s reputation and glowing reviews, we expected a refined, flavorful dining experience. Unfortunately, the dishes lacked balance and care in execution. The service and setting were excellent, but the food was simply not up to par—especially for a special occasion.

🌊 Pure Magic at Mala Ocean Tavern, Maui 🌴 I’m still in awe of the experience we had at Mala Ocean Tavern — it was absolute perfection from start to finish. I went for the surf and turf (and couldn’t resist adding scallops 😋), while my wife had the green curry with seafood, and every bite was pure heaven. What made it even more unforgettable was the ocean view, just steps away — the sound of the waves, the warm breeze, and that Maui sunset painting the sky. 🌅 The staff went above and beyond — so kind, attentive, and full of great recommendations that made the meal even more special. It’s one of those rare moments where everything just clicks — incredible food, an amazing team, and the beauty of nature all around you. Feeling so grateful to have experienced it. 💙

Like the name suggests, this place is immediately next to the ocean. The sprays up on the windows often. It's great to watch during dinner. The food was excellent and the menu was diverse and creative. The service was stellar. The views of the sailboats and the ocean waves made for a memorable dinner experience.

We had a wonderful experience at Mama‘s Fish House. Have been here before years ago. The view is unbeatable. Although we did not have reservations, we were able to easily walk in and only waited 10 minutes for a seat at the bar. Our bartenders Tom and Jordan made the best Mai tais and gin based cocktail. We shared crabcakes which were full of a large amount of delicious crab and served with roe on top. We also had the shrimp wontons with a macadamia nut dipping sauce. The lobster bisque had plenty of lobster chunks within it. The Hawaiian Onaga and ahi sashimi dish was amazing. So fresh and flavorful. Do not miss this. For dessert, we opted for the island fruit sorbet which was great, but next time I will definitely order the chocolate Polynesian black pearl. The only thing that could use some improvement is better Wi-Fi service within the restaurant. Overall, a great experience and something everyone should try if their budget and time allows. Try making a reservation in advanced here for sunset.

Mamma’s Fish House truly delivers on the experience — the food is fresh and beautifully prepared, the drinks are excellent, and the service is warm and attentive. Everything feels polished and full of aloha spirit. That said, the price point doesn’t quite match up — it’s definitely on the higher end, and some of the dishes feel a bit overpriced, which makes it seem more about the hype than pure value. Still, the overall experience, atmosphere, and views make it worth visiting at least once. It’s a Maui classic and a must-do spot on the island for anyone who wants to enjoy a memorable meal in a stunning setting.

Just finished a 5 day trip to Maui w my wife and this was an absolute highlight. One of the tougher reservations to get, booked ours far in advance, expectations were high — i was worried. After eating here & experiencing the service, I now understand what the hype is about. You can see this isn’t just a restaurant , it’s an institution & has this refined confidence about them — been here for years, they have perfected the service & food offering. Complimentary valet, a beautiful private beach, and a great ratio of staff to guests. My wife, 25 weeks pregnant & eats plant based, had many options curated for her & i can genuinely say, being from California where vegan food is plentiful, she’s never had more options at a traditionally seafood heavy restaurant than she did at mamas. 3 different entree’s, custom & thoughtful adjustments — our server maile made us feel comfortable from the minute we sat down. The Maui onion tomato salad w/ the 18 year balsamic is something I’ll be making in the future as it was just simple & executed perfectly — again, refined confidence. I also got the octopus dish that was well seasoned and had bright flavors to it - would recommend. There was a hiccup in my wife’s entree & it was handled superbly — immediately took the dish back, expedited a new dish, and when it came out, they gave me a sauce to rewarm my meal as they saw i waited for my wife’s food to come out. Just awareness you don’t see that often. I got the stuffed amberjack w crab & lobster w macadamia hit crust and it just blew me away — simply the best. We had such a good time we bought a t shirt !

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Best Dining Experience of the Year From the moment we arrived at Mama’s Fish House, everything felt special. Valet parking was seamless, we were warmly greeted, and our hostess led us to a beautiful booth with a stunning ocean view. To celebrate our honeymoon, the restaurant even placed a personalized placard at our table — such a thoughtful touch. Despite being one of the busiest restaurants on the island, the atmosphere at our table was calm, relaxed, and perfectly timed. Drinks never sat empty, dishes arrived with precision, and if the staff felt rushed, we would have never known it. The service was flawless — warm, attentive, and truly seamless. The food? Absolutely spectacular. Every bite was fresh, creative, and perfectly prepared. From start to finish, you could tell this was fine dining at its peak, but still carried that casual, beachside warmth that makes it feel authentically Maui. Reservations are a must — we booked three months in advance, and it was more than worth it. Even though it took us an hour to drive there from where we were staying, I would happily make that drive every day if it meant dining here again. If you’re visiting Maui or have something special to celebrate, Mama’s Fish House is the place. This is the pinnacle of what dining should be: thoughtful, welcoming, delicious, and unforgettable. It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

We had multiple friends recommend Mama’s when we said we were going to Maui. I was a little worried it might be overrated after seeing some comments on Facebook, but it was not overrated. I was contacted a couple days before the reservation to ask my husband’s name (so they could put it on the card on our table). There is mandatory valet parking. Every person that greeted us after valet congratulated us for our honeymoon. We were given a table right by the window with a stunning view. You are given bread & soup shot. For an appetizer, we ordered the crispy kanpachi collar. For entrees, we ordered the Mama's Ahi And Mahi-Mahi Curry & Hawaiian Kanpachi With Lobster And Crab In A Macadamia Nut Crust. We did not have any room for dessert. No, the food was not cheap, but it was absolutely delicious & is a lot of food. The waiter was so nice to take a few photos of us. The restaurant is also by a cute beach & we were able to see a sea turtle! I definitely would recommend Mama’s to anyone coming to Maui!

Spectacular on all levels. The views, the walk into the restaurant, the decor inside and of course the food and service was top notch. It was a meal of a lifetime and definitely an expensive but well worth it endeavor. Thank you for one of the best meals we have ever had.

I have no idea why this restaurant isn’t rated five stars already. What caught my attention right away was the incredible service—warm, friendly, and attentive to every detail. The staff made us feel welcomed like family. And then the food… absolutely out of this world. The Mahi Mahi curry and the Ahi with Charred pineapple was truly chef’s kiss. Easily the best meal I’ve had in Maui—flavorful, perfectly prepared, and unforgettable. After our meal, they surprised us with refreshing cold towels, which felt amazing, and even offered complimentary valet parking. What more can you ask for? This restaurant truly goes above and beyond.

We dined here on our honeymoon and we loved the experience! The ambiance of the restaurant was really fun and it was cool to see all the various cocktails and things on the menu. We got truffle fries and some type of ravioli to start… loved the fries but would not recommend the ravioli. It was a weird texture and overpoweringly cheesy. The drinks and margaritas pizza were great, too! We came for happy hour and our waiter was great! We did feel a little forgotten about at the end of our meal, but it was starting to pick up a ton by that time as it transitioned to dinner time.

A beautiful restaurant with delicious locally themed dishes and a staff that is efficient, friendly, and attentive. The restaurant is comfortably decorated in a modern tropical theme. Tables and booths are available and are spaced so that you're not on top of other visitors. A large bar offers comfortable counter service. Tables are also available on an outside patio. We have never needed to make reservations. However, during busier times of the year and for large groups it would probably be smart to make arrangements. A free parking lot is available adjacent to the restaurant.

Awesome! The food and drinks were very very good. Sydney was our bartender and she couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The drinks were great and unique, including a house made vanilla cream on the espresso martini. Food was outstanding and the unexpected amazing corn bread. Must try if you are in this area or within striking distance.

My husband and I were in Maui last week for our honeymoon and we came to Monkeypod twice during our stay. The first night I got the famous mai tai and it was delicious. I’m not even really a fan of sour/sweet cocktails, but the foam on this one really made it special and more decadent. We tried several items, but we especially loved the sashimi tacos, beef bulgogi tacos, and the gyoza. All were exceptional! If we are ever back in Maui we will definitely come back again!

Great foodie spot in Maui for anyone wanting a solid, flavor packed meal! I had many fiends recommend trying Monkeypod on top of the local reputation this place carries. I highly encourage everyone to make a reservation as this place gets booked up very quickly, even on a weekday. For those without a reservation, I heard the hostess tell someone it would be over an hour before getting seated. (Just a heads up!) The food was very good, overall! The entrees in particular. I had the bulgogi beef tacos and my partner ordered the gnocchi. Both were exceptional! The tacos were drizzled in a chile aioli, a fresh chile, and some crunchy veg. Truly one of the best tacos I’ve had in a really long time. At first I thought the dish was small for the price, but they’re packed and I left very full. My mouth still waters thinking about this meal! My partner who orders the gnocchi feels the same way. His dish was rich, filling, and balanced by the addition of veg. He said to me “oh, so this is how gnocchi are supposed to taste!” Once you’ve had these light, fluffy pillows you can’t go back to the rubbery version most restaurants serve. My partner also remarked he enjoyed this dish so much he’d be hard pressed to order or try anything else! However, we both felt the same about the tortilla soup - it was underwhelming. It was too spicy and not balanced by anything. It wasn’t super hot when severed and I’d not order it again. Given how great the entrees were this appetizer should be reconsidered or removed from the menu. The atmosphere is laid back, feels casual, and very loud. The evening we dined inside it was packed and I could barely hear my partner talk. If this bothers you then you walk may want to ask about outdoor dining. Also, due to how busy the night was, the staff tried turning tables over very quickly which lead to small missteps in service. For example, the guys busing the tables wiped food onto the seats and left it there for the next diner to clean or possibly sit on. On a brighter note, when I used the restroom I did witness a staff member wash their hands for a full minute and avoid touching the door handle upon exit! 🎉👏 Love seeing good hygiene practices! The service was great the entire evening. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu, described the dishes in great detail, which was very helpful in making our menu selections. Overall, I’d highly recommend making a reservation and making Monkeypod part of your Maui visit! It was easily one of my favorite meals during the whole trip and I’d absolutely go back!

Overall good review. They will tell you to come on in without a reservation but expect a 30 min wait. When you go to buy a drink at the bar while you’re waiting the bartender will abruptly direct you to a line to order a drink which felt strange. I had the fish and chips which was very good. My wife had a pizza which was very limp and wet and wasn’t great but not horrible. Our waiter was outstanding once we got to our table. Their prices are very fair for the food, the drinks are a little pricey. And the Mai Tai is as good as rumored.

Great place! Just the kind of place we were looking for on our honeymoon that wasn’t going to kill us. We went during happy hour and it was so fun. Great service, great drinks and good food! No reservation (on a Monday) and got in after about 5 minute wait.

This was one of my fav restaurant in Maui, love the ocean front view. The breeze, the ocean water. It’s located in Lahaina town. We were there before the fire broke out. Not sure if they rebuild it or not. Food was great. Love the view. Can walk around burn some calories after lunch or dinner. Staffs were wonderful.

We had an excellent meal at Kimo’s . We both had fish dishes, which were delicious. We were there for the sunset, which was amazing. The views from the patio deck are terrific. They had two musicians playing for the sunset hour, which was charming! Our server was attentive and informative. I would highly recommend!

Amazing food. Amazing scenery. This place is an absolute must while on the island! We called ahead and made reservations for 4, and we're able to get right in on time. It is right on the beach, so you get a great view of the ocean! Make sure to bring some sunglasses if you go during sunset because that sun gets brutal as it sets in the evening. Best fish and chips I have ever had (honestly). Also, the hula pie is an absolute must-have for dessert. It most definitely lives up to the hype! Parking is best if you go to the free parking at the shopping center just north 2 block. It's an easy walk, and you can stop at a few gift shops along the way.

Definitely should get the hula pie! I was happy with the cheeseburger and fries. The fish wasn't bad but tasted bland. Enjoyed the beachfront and even looking over the balcony, we found some nails and crabs on the rocks below which the kids loved! The staff was attentive and friendly. They have an interactive packet for the kids to color and then if they play bingo (find things around them) then they got a free Frisbee! It helped to keep them distracted and in their seats.

Sadly, this is one of those restaurants that used to be really good, great food, great service, etc. But now they just hustle you in and hustle you out. It has become so popular because of the amazing ocean and sunset views. I have always enjoyed the prime rib here, but it was so disappointing this time. Very dry and tasteless. The seafood special was good but not outstanding as it should be based on the pricing and the caliber of restaurant they are trying to be. Don't bother showing up without a reservation, the hostess will be rude and make it very clear she will not have room for you. I'm sorry to say, it's not worth a return trip for me.

The fish tacos are exceptional, maybe the best I've had. Paired with a draft craft beer IPA made it even better. The Kimo's Baked fish with rice and macaroni salad was also excellent. And to top it off the Hula Pie was super yummy too. The hostess who seated us and our server were friendly and professional. Truly a 5 star experience.

This restaurant is situated on the popular Front Street, right on the water. Unfortunately, we got there after sunset and weren’t able to take in the views. At the time, the live vocalist was finishing up, around 8pm. He was very talented and showed real affection for the crowd. Not sure if that was just that night or if he’s always like that, but it was quite endearing. Our server was fun and friendly. The food was fresh. Taste wise, it was ok. Not great, just good, hence the 4 stars. The vibe was the most significant part here. With the waves crashing beside us, the beautiful music, the mix of customers, and outgoing staff, it’s a great spot to visit while on vacation. Try to get there while the sun is still up!

We had the pleasure of dining at Merriman’s in Maui during our honeymoon, and it was an unforgettable experience. The food was absolutely amazing — the macadamia nut crusted fish was out of this world, and the freshly baked bread with tomato and oil was such a delicious start to the meal. What really made our experience special, though, was the outstanding service. Our server, Ben, was fantastic — so friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the menu to us. After dinner, we went down to the outdoor area where we met Nolan, the bartender, who was not only great at what he does but also a pleasure to talk with. On our last night in Maui, we returned for late-night drinks and were taken care of by Viola, who was just as wonderful and friendly. Thank you, Merriman’s, for helping make our honeymoon so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything was perfection! We celebrated our wedding anniversary here and so glad we did. The macadamia crusted catch of the day was excellent and so fresh. The dessert and other plates were so good too. Not to mention the ambiance and the amazing service - our server was so nice, attentive and passionate about the food. Highly recommend!

Spot on for fine dining. We had our kids with us and they were accommodating for children which I appreciate. The service was immaculate. There is a happy hour bar that does not accept reservations, but if you want to dine, I’d recommend reservations. The adults ordered: ahi sashimi (10/10) with fresh wasabi (holy moly) Oysters (off menu) (10/10) Caesar salad (8/10) Macadamia nut crusted fresh catch (7/10) Filet mignon (10/10) My kids ordered steak and pasta and everyone was very happy with their meal. We also got icecream and crème brûlée (off menu) which was immaculate.

What an amazing place! We had never been during our previous visits to Maui, now we'll be sure not to miss it! Absolutely stunning views during an outstanding dinner! Andy, our Server, was fantastic and attentive, yet didn't rush us at all. We had a table on the railing, which is as good as it gets! Before the sunset, all shades were raised so the entire restaurant could experience it! Now the food and drinks, perfect. The Mai Tais were delicious. We had the Sashimi Special for an appetizer which was uber fresh, the Ceviche which was delicious, and then dinner consisted of the Scallop and Clam option, along with the Ono and seared Ahi option. Everything was super flavorful and delicious. Dessert was the bread pudding with Macadamia and carmel... unreal. It's a MUST to end your evening with that! All in all a perfect dinner at one of the best restaurants with one amazing view. Thank you, and we can't wait to visit again!

We had a wonderful dinner at Merrimans on our honeymoon! The views were stunning, service was 10/10, and food was phenomenal. It’s a must-try spot for a romantic dinner. We had the crusted mahi mahi, filet, poke, and quesadillas. The bread pudding was incredible well! They also brought out a lovely dessert to congratulate us. We will be back here soon!

Celebrated our honeymoon in Maui about a month ago and had reserved about 3 months in advance at Merriman’s. One of the best decisions we made for this trip. From the moment we entered to the moment we left, the staff made us feel beyond welcome. They offered us small drinks to toast our honeymoon, the food was AMAZING, our waiter Robert was very knowledgeable and friendly, and they showed a lot of carefulness to our food intolerances/preferences and made sure every detail was well thought of. The hostess Sam made sure were happy and comfortable and even offered to take pictures of us with the sunset which we so much appreciated. My husband and I were so happy that we decided it would be one of the places we’d happily go back to every time we visit Maui. Huge thanks to everyone who participated in making our experience so enjoyable!!

We had lovelier evening with the family. The views were amazing, the atmosphere was elegant and warm. The service is 5 star. We didn't feel rushed. Food was excellent.

Tried Paia Fish Market on our way back from Hāna — arrived Sunday around lunchtime and, while the line was long, it moved surprisingly fast. They run a tight operation: after ordering, food was served within 5–6 minutes. We ordered the catch of the day (Mahi Mahi) — Cajun-style and blackened — along with rice, Caesar salad, and fried calamari. The fish was undeniably fresh and seasoned to perfection — flavorful and satisfying. However, considering the portion size and pricing, it felt a bit overpriced. Staff were attentive, but not particularly warm — perhaps due to the rush of tourist traffic. Just a heads up: this isn’t your typical laid-back, no-frills island shack — it’s a fast-moving, high-volume operation. Overall, I’d recommend it for the quality of the fish, just set your expectations accordingly when it comes to vibe and price.

The literal best fish sandwich I've ever had in my entire life. Great menu to choose from. Many options on how you want your fish. Everything was fresh. Homemade tartar sauce. You're gonna wish you could take a bucket of it with you. The staff is SO nice. They will take care of you. Also get the local fruit drink. Get it. It's so good. The place is very comfortable. Great stools that actually fit your butt and very clean. Sit at the window bar and you can people watch. We will be going back, definitely. Update: we went back almost every day of our stay.

Really delicious fresh fish. Gets busy but they serve quickly. Perfect for a quick lunch. They serve each fish a variety of ways and both that we had (blackened and char boiled) were lovely. Big portions too

Considering there aren’t many places where you can get something actually bearable to eat (for a non-American belly), this spot really stands out. Fresh food, real (not frozen) fries, and a surprisingly not-sweet-as-hell iced tea make it absolutely worth a visit in Paia. Especially since Mama’s Fish House is so overhyped it’s impossible to get in. Eat here instead :)

Great place to get fish at very reasonable prices. Went with the mahi-mahi cajun spices and cajun rice. The coleslaw is sooo good, caught me off guard. The fish was super fresh and delicious. There is always a line, but the seating comes up fast. The service is counter and everyone is friendly. Super happy we stopped in here. You should too!

This place was actually recommended by a store guy! Glad we decided to try it. As usual you order at the counter and then find a table to sit. The food was actually bought out fast. Mainly seafood options but they did have chicken dishes. It tasted really good too. Very very generous portions. We had leftovers!! Definitely recommend this place. It does get busy.

Deliciously cooked, great portions, flavorful and so fresh. A must-go in Maui! Perfect spot to stop when coming back from Hana.

Chris and Eric (bartenders) were incredible! They truly made our night with their stories, jokes, and recommendations. We really felt at home. Could not have asked for a better duo at the bar that night. Thanks guys!

This restaurant delivers an unforgettable dining experience, with truly unique dishes that showcase exceptional creativity. Every pairing on the menu, like the brulee with port wine, is thoughtfully curated and absolutely delightful. Trust the chef—there’s no need for modifications, as each dish is crafted to perfection. If you're looking for a place that knows exactly how to balance flavor, artistry, and innovation, this is it.

Nick's Fish Restaurant provided the perfect backdrop for our anniversary celebration. We were so happy with our experience! The atmosphere was lovely, and we were seated at a fantastic table. The service was outstanding; our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel truly special throughout the evening. And the food! Everything we ordered was fresh, expertly prepared, and delicious. The 'Diver Scallop & Shrimp Scampi' and 'Moroccan Spiced Salmon' were a highlight. Not to forget the Crème Brûlée! Overall, we had an awesome anniversary night thanks to the wonderful staff, great food, and beautiful setting. A five-star dining experience we wholeheartedly recommend for any special occasion.

Excellent seafood and even the Filet Mignon was great. The steak had great flavor and was very tender. Staff had no issues substituting side dishes. The atmosphere is great and most seats have a view of the pool area and ocean.

I would say I’m a little disappointed in this place based on how much the bill was. The lamb chops were absolutely phenomenal, however, the filet was a little disappointing. The filet was a bit dry and simply nothing special. Also, the service was a bit too slow for my tastes. It was around 15 mins after we were seated that our server came over to greet us and there was a noticeable wait for food and drinks to arrive at the table. It’s not our servers fault as it seemed that he was running around all night with all of his different tables. But my last impression of this place was their macadamia nut brownie sunday and let me tell you that it made it all worth it!

By far my favorite restaurant I have eaten at in Maui. The views were impeccable, the food delicious and the service on point. Drinks were great as well. Highly recommend!!

My husband and I came to Nick's twice on our Trip to Maui. Everything we ordered was great - Mahi Mahi, waygu beef, crab cakes, potstickers. The first night, our server forgot us a few times, but the second time we went, our server was amazing. She took the time to chat with us and recommended some great spots on the Island (I think her name was Kiara). Would recommend!

What a pleasant surprise to find a spot with a separate Vegan menu! Not only having a vegan menu, but also being flexible and accommodating to make some adjustments to existing menu items. We found out that the GM is Vegan, so there was a lot of thought put into this menu and it showed all the way through from appetizers to dessert. We started with the Tostada, blackened tofu for entree, my kids did pasta and then the dark chocolate cake with coconut sorbet. It was awesome. The service from our server, Peter, was fantastic. He was very friendly, asked the kitchen questions based on our Vegan diet and knew the entire menu. I would recommend anyone looking for a fancy night out to dine here.

The staff was wonderful! They seated us at a table with a beautiful view of the sunset. The food was absolutely delicious! They even brought out a special dessert with Happy Anniversary written in chocolate syrup on the plate as a surprise. Couldn’t have picked a better restaurant to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary!

Tonight we enjoyed the launch of the Friday night cocktail food pairing for our anniversary. It was perfection. The service was impeccable, the food was excellent as per usual but the evening felt personal and special. Our 2 hosts (not just bartenders) created such a beautiful journey, sharing their stories and how they love food and creating cocktails. It was the added touch that most tasting menus just skip right over. They shared with us the expatiation of the food but we very much enjoyed how they created these cocktail choices and the road that led them here. Kudos Spago for a wonderful and memorable experience. What a beautiful way to celebrate our 20th! Until next time... thank you!

Perfect place for sunset dinner! Service was good, the food was excellent. Ahi cones had really good texture and the flavors complimented each other. The smoked salmon pizza had a dill crème mixture that went really well with the salmon, the crust was light and crispy

Absolutely loved it. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was incredible. The servers we had were phenomenal (we had a team of two- Peter and Anthony). I really did come into the experience like “is this the 20th century? Spago? 🤨?” I was a bit hasty in my judgment. Great job 👏. We will be back

The ambience was palatial and views stunning, the service was professional and knowledgeable, and the cocktails (alcoholic and NA) were delicious and creative (the wine list was impressive too with some good value as well as rarities). The food, on the other hand, was hit and miss. The gazpacho and tomato soups were truly amazing, and the chicken main was very homey and deeply satisfying (a la grandma’s cooking). The scallops and pork shank mains not so much. The pork shank was curiously tough and not particularly flavorful. The accompanying polenta and corn didn’t really do much for the dish. The “Hong Kong” scallops were ok, but nothing special. The vegetables they came with were a little overcooked and the whole dish looked and tasted soggy and the sauce watered down. For this class of establishment and price point we expected better - flawless execution start to finish. I would recommend this restaurant, but advise you choose your mains carefully. Bonus points for a sizable and reasonably priced kids menu. However, it did take them 30 minutes to seat us despite us having a reservation and checking in just before our reservation time.

An absolutely beautiful location with fantastic food. Is it expensive? Absolutely, but that has to be expected and known in advance before choosing to eat here. The staff is top notch, and the food is all excellent. Everything we ordered was delicious and thoroughly enjoyed. The meal moves at the perfect pace with enough time between courses to prepare for your next plate, and you certainly do not feel rushed. Views from the restaurant are beautiful and overlook the Four Seasons Resort and ocean. Highly recommend having dinner here, especially if celebrating a special occasion.

We enjoyed their appetizers more than entrees. Ribs, carpaccio, and gyoza were all delicious. For main, we ordered spicy hotate roll, duck fried rice, and kushiyaki set. Kushiyaki set was a miss for us - didn’t like that super sweet sauce was smothered on every single one of the skewers and vegetables. Because of that everything just tasted sweet with no other flavors. The black pan that was used for serving those skewers was for presentation only, it didn’t keep the food warm at all. Ended the night with ube cheesecake, enjoyed that too. Given the reviews and the brand, I expected more.

Great ambiance. The staff was kind and friendly [0] Unfortunately, food quality was very disappointing. So their sticky bbq was great. However, 1. their sushi tasted a bit stale. Their Sake ( salmon ) and Sabe ( makarel ) in parituclar tasted like they were left in the sun for too long and just turned a bit bad. 2. Their cocktail, moritale(?), tasted like they forgot to add ingredients. It tasted straight up vodka with a hint of sake. This was our babymoon dinner, and didnt want to ruin it, so I didnt make any complaints. But sushi was too disappointing. [0] There was a small mishap for my order of 20 nigiri x 2 maki set. They mistakenly thought I ordered 10 nigiri set. When they brought it out, I told them about their original order and they brought another 10 nigiri set.

Appetizers were not bad but rather ordinary - we had the poke tacos, fish carpaccio, and rock shrimp tempura. The 14 oz wagyu steak was way too salty that we could not even finish. Maybe we ordered the wrong dishes but everything was pretty underwhelming. Also, I was surprised that the appetizer plates were not switched out with dinner plates before the main dish, given that it was an upscale restaurant. The sunset views were nice.

We were a bit late and they were very accommodating. Greeted by very kind staff and seated on the patio to enjoy the ocean breeze. Mike was our waiter. Described everything and was so professional. Very low key vibe. Started with sticky ribs and cocktails. There was a minor issue with one of our orders and it was quickly and smoothly resolved. When we return to Maui we will certainly eat here again!

Food is generally wonderful like all other Morimoto locations we've been to. Ribs are always a fan favorite. Steak was delicious. The duck rice and shishito peppers were bland in flavor. Desert was great. Drinks were pricey and lacked punch, which should never be the case for such a classy place. Especially after dropping over $180 per person.

This is my favorite sushi restaurant! The view of the ocean is amazing, especially at sunset. And the food is beyond praise! We tried the chef's choice and everything was delicious and exquisite.

Holy Smokes! What an amazing meal/night! Everything was spot on. From the drinks to the main course to dessert. This place hit all the right notes and left us wanting more. Definitely get the shrimp tempura - the biggest reason I wanted to come back when we visited Maui again. But the short rib appitizer was spectacular and a MUST. I’m telling you! The Yellowtail is heaven, the Surf and Turf was second to none (the lobster was easily my most favorite I’ve ever had). The Cheesecake was to die for! And the malasadas and cream sauce were like clouds of magic. And AARON was our fantastic server. He was like a friendly next door neighbor. What a friendly, informative, and attentive waiter. What a great experience!

We tried Coconuts based on a recommendation from a server at another restaurant. Went here because Paia Fish Market was too packed. Coconuts was full, too, but we got in much faster. Super friendly people, but good lord it was so hot in there. The AC they had was either off or. It working well. Once the sun went down, it cooled down a bit. Food was great. I had the pork tacos and my fish had the fish tacos. Both were delicious, and honestly, a little hard to eat as they were piled so high. Atmosphere was good. TVs were easily visible around the restaurant.

Neat place for a quick lunch. Great food. Laid back atmosphere. Had mini crab cakes and tuna poke bowl. Both were delicious. Few beers on tap have hubby and me adequate choice for beverages. Good prices and friendly, fast service.

This is a gem! Amazing fresh seafood! Good restaurants are soooo hard to find on Maui, not a lot of good food. But this place is amazing. The lobster roll and macadamia Mahi were too good! One of my new Hawaiian favs in Maui

Coconuts is one of my favorite spots for dinner in Maui. The mahi sandwich and fish tacos are seriously delicious. The staff is always super friendly and the vibe is super chill. Great place to grab a tasty meal and relax.

Cool spot on the 2nd floor. Food was fairly good, but its cafe style (order at a counter then go sit down) so don’t expect anything fancy Overall cool spot and would go back for something simple and reliable

A Hidden Culinary Gem Don't let the unassuming location fool you—this spot is a must-try. Recommended by a restaurateur friend of my wife's, it completely won me over, despite my usual aversion to counter-service on vacation. From the moment we walked in, Peter, the owner/manager, greeted us with such warmth and hospitality that it set the tone for an amazing meal. I initially thought it was solely a fish taco joint, but I couldn't have been more wrong. While their fish tacos are indeed spectacular, they offer so much more. The coconut shrimp is some of the best we've ever had, especially when paired with the Thai-chili pineapple sauce. Seriously, ask for two sides of that sauce—it's incredible! My wife's fish tacos were a revelation. Each order comes with two tacos, but here's the genius part: each taco has an extra white corn tortilla. This means you can either keep all that delicious filling in one super-stuffed taco or easily split it into two separate ones. Her tacos were loaded with perfectly grilled fish, cheese, tomato salsa, and coconut milk, all finished with a vibrant mango salsa. She opted to tackle hers as a single, epic taco, and every bite was pure bliss. The fish was perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. Her only minor critique was that the slaw could have been a bit finer and slightly less abundant, but even as someone not usually keen on slaw, she was thrilled we made the trip. I went for the Mahi Mahi Fish & Chips, and it was equally impressive. The Mahi Mahi was cooked to perfection, with a light, crispy crust that wasn't greasy at all. It came with a delicious tartar sauce, a generous portion of fries, and a side of coconut milk coleslaw. This place is definitely getting a strong recommendation to all our friends visiting the area, and we're already hoping to squeeze in another visit before heading back to Texas.

Interesting restaurant. Order when you first walk in and then select a table where you will sit. Shrimp was dynamite and fish. Tacos were pretty dang good as well.

Great atmosphere. Definitely loud, but the tiki torch lighting is lovely and restful, and the service (our waiter was Michael) is excellent. Food was pretty good. My husband loved his seafood risotto (plenty of scallops, a small lobster tail, and one big shrimp). My macadamia crusted fish was a bit dry, but the rice, veg, and butter caper sauce were tasty. The portion was on the smaller side for mine, although the risotto was plentiful. Delicious hula pie and coffee. Glad we ate here!

Beautiful ocean view and some pretty good grub. Started with Calamari and Macadamia Humas. Calamari was thick sticks, with an excellent aioli. Humas included carrots zucchini and pita bread, excellent. Bacon cheese burger with avocado was chared nicely with some crunchy beer battered fries. Little woman had Maui Caesar salad with sunflower seeds, kale,mixed greens and a light dressing (a little underwhelming on the dressing flavor). Our dining guest had the fish tacos (2 in soft tortilla) & said they were excellent. Make a reservation as they are busy during peak eating times.

Good food and nice service. Its a resort style beach bar/restaurant. There was live music too so that was nice. You don't have to own or stay at the resort to park or eat here and the parking is free. The live music was pretty chill and fit the lunch beach vibe.

Nice little restaurant right off the boardwalk. The staff is super nice. We only had to wait a few minutes for our seats. The poke tacos and ahi sashimi were outstanding! They also offer a lot of nice drinks! Prices were pretty good as well. Overall, I would recommend stopping if you are walking down the boardwalk.

My fiancé and I have enjoyed Duke’s Beach House for about a week since our arrival to Maui. We booked an all inclusive package which allotted breakfast vouchers for each day we’re here. We’ve had the pleasure of enjoying their delicious, hearty breakfast and sundown scenic dinner. The service is incredible! Shout out to Troy, Sid and Emily.

Duke’s is a must if you’re in the Lahaina area. The location is as spectacular as the service. Brian was attentive, very friendly, and quick to bring our order! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, from salads to burgers. I loved the fish and chips and also tried the Caesar salad. Leave room for the world-famous Hula Pie and spend some time at the beach afterward.

Delicious, fresh seafood at the cost you would expect for a seafood restaurant on a Maui resort. Service was very efficient and nice. Bar area has 5 tables and bar seating all first come first serve otherwise reservations are needed for the rest of the seating. Live music on a Sunday at 3P. Split an appetizer (nachos) and the fish plate. They kindly split the fish plate and presented it on two separate plates and half portions without extra charge. Fantastic service. Drinks were amazing.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of Fleetwood’s! Our server was fantastic and really helped us pick out the best items on the menu based on our preferences. If you catch some of the live music, it’s really great too. The food was decent, I enjoyed the seafood linguine but I do think it is an expensive place to dine. This is a great spot for a fun and memorable night in Maui, and I would recommend it if you want to treat yourself or your loved ones.

Went for happy hour. Multiple sequential host stand checkin steps, but was seated without in due delay. Happy hour drink pricing was excellent. We sat outside but under shade. Food came out quickly. We would go back. Be sure to make reservation in advance.

Killer spot. Excellent venue, incredible food. We didn’t have a reservation and waited 1 hour. Lots of bars within walking distance so no big deal. I ordered the roast chicken which was so moist! My partner ordered some fish dish which he enjoyed.

We had a phenomenal date night here. We came on Valentine’s Day, and had a reservation on the rooftop. Because of poor weather, there was no live music outside. Our waitress, Monica, was so amazing and found us a table inside so we could have our dessert with the music inside. I would absolutely come back!

Oh my gosh! Some of the best food I've ever tasted came from this restaurant. We made a reservation for happy hour and sat on the rooftop bar. Such a beautiful view and limited happy hour selection was perfect! The Fleetwood Mac n Cheese is to die for. The shrimp and oysters were delicious!! So glad we were able to get reservations!

Where to start? Had a wonderful experience celebrating our wedding anniversary dinner! Alissa our server was so nice, sweet and very efficient. Made an online reservation 1 month in advance for rooftop dining through opentable. Got in around 5:45 pm for the nighttime ceremony. They gave us complimentary glasses of champagne and a Happy Anniversary card. We had the chefs special for the night, which is shared by 2 people. It was a surf and turf special beef wellington wrapped in prosciutto, lobster, scallop, prawns with mashed potato and brussels sprouts. We also had a crab cake appetizers and drinks. Everything was on point from the ambiance, food and great customer service. I definitely recommend this place. They make you feel special.

Just had the most amazing dinner. Our server Travis and manager Brandy were great when they found out the original server had not come to our table for 15 minutes after being seated. Their customer service was outstanding! The food was very well prepared. Travis recommended the monchong and it was so tasty. My wife had the prawns and she adored them. One surprise-there is a bagpiper that plays for 20 minutes starting around 6pm. Very entertaining and he was the icing on top. Great experience and will cherish the memory of our meal!

Very nice experience. The food was incredibly flavorful, the ambiance was classy. We enjoyed the excellent wagyu ravioli with the warm fresh bread. The French onion soup and seafood chowder were great. We split the daily special Opakapaka with amazing risotto. They notified us of the extra charge to split and we were happy with did it when we saw how beautifully it was plated. Every dish was super rich and delicious. A very nice touch when they brought my husband a birthday card, dessert and took our photo. I read reviews of how incredible service was, so I think I was expecting a lot. While our server was friendly, we didn’t find it very attentive. It was busy, so I understand he had his hands full. It was a lovely fine dining experience!

An absolute must-visit fine dining restaurant. If you are in Maui, you must dine here. The atmosphere is inviting and intimate. The staff is knowledgeable of the entire menu and very polite. Their wine list is second to none. They have their own sommelier who procures vino from around the world, so you have a tremendous amount of bottled options ranging from $60 per bottle to over $10K. They have many gluten-free options or can make some options gluten-free with a chefs tweak here or there. The bowl of fish chowder was to die for and is a must-try. Lastly, the owner will stop by and introduce himself and chat with you. He provides the highest level of concierge service, which, besides the amazing food and atmosphere, is why this place consistently ranks among the very, very best in the world and deserves the reputation it has most assuredly earned.

Honestly, best service we have had in a very long time. Thank you Lisa and Eric for being so attentive. The little special touches go a long way in our book. The food matched the service and was spectacular. We were celebrating our anniversary and they took a picture of us, gave us a card, and a desert. My husband is Gluten Free and they paid very special attention to his dietary restrictions. They made sure he could still try the seafood special of the day and dessert. Even the doggy bag hanger was a nice touch.

Excellent dinner. The food was amazing. Everything sounded great so it was hard to decide what to get. The drinks we got were delicious too. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We definitely will be coming back next time we’re in Maui. This was the best meal we had on the island. Everything we got was phenomenal. The owner of the restaurant even came around and thanked us for dining there. Great experience all around.

Had a wonderful experience. Food was excellent. Service was exceptional! Only thing I didn’t really care for was the fish chowder. We really enjoyed the bufala tomato salad. Although it’s a bit pricey for what you get but it’s worth a try. The Osso Buco tasted amazing and they leave the bone marrow intact. Seared Ahi Tuna was cooked perfectly. The flavor is well balanced.

Absolutely phenomenal food and was one of the highlights of our trip. I went with my fiance for an anniversary dinner and had incredible service and complimentary dessert. Highly recommend the rack of lamb and the steak. The soups were fantastic as well. Make sure to reserve in advance because it's all worth it!

We went there to celebrate both of my parents’ 60th birthday. It was a phenomenal place! From the tequila shrimp to the slow braised boneless short ribs to the mushroom ravioli to the salmon filet, all of it was incredibly delicious and flavorful! They even surprised us with birthday cards and a beautiful dessert. Our server Mike was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! Overall, we all had a great experience!

This is a great place for a bite to eat or some good drinks. I had the garlic friend lo mein and added some grilled chicken to it. That meal was amazing and just the right amount. My wife had the hurricane fries which were also very good and spicy. Our server was super attentive. It was a little pricey but everything is on Maui. But the food was worth every penny. None of us had any complaints. Highly recommend this place.

We had seen this place on an episode of Diners, Drive Ins & Dives and when we were looking for a lunch spot today we thought we would drive to Kihei and try it! It absolutely did NOT disappoint!! It was very easy for us to get a lovely shaded table on the patio. Our waiter Daniel was fantastic! We decided to go with three of the shared plates…Bacon fried Brussel Sprouts, garlic fried noodles, and crispy pork belly. The pork belly was so good and gone so fast that we ordered another one so that we could take a picture of it! It was definitely the first place winner…the chili gastrique and the papaya salad completely balanced off the richness of the pork belly! The garlic noodles were epic…these are the kind of noodles that you could just eat every day and never get tired of! The brussel sprouts were scrumptious! Even if you don’t like Brussel Sprouts, you will love these!! Great dishes and a total flavour bomb of yumminess!! Definitely going back again before we leave for Canada again!

Overall food was ok, however food trucks next door offer way better quantity and taste. Fish tacos were extremely spicy with no flavor. Hawaiian fish dish had awesome sauce, but fish was overcooked .

We had a great experience at Three’s Bar & Grill in Kihei! The food was delicious, and the mimosas were absolutely refreshing. It’s a very kid-friendly spot, which made our family brunch so easy and enjoyable. We loved the volcano photos on the walls—they add such a fun local vibe to the place. We actually found out about it through the PacWhale Foundation, which offers a 20% discount—so glad we decided to stop by! A special shoutout to the staff, who were so kind and generous. I accidentally left my bag behind, and when I returned later, they had kept it safely for me. Truly thoughtful people who made our visit even better. Highly recommend for families or anyone looking for great food, friendly service, and a relaxed Maui atmosphere. 🌺🍹

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Three’s Bar & Grill, and the experience was nothing short of wonderful. From the moment we walked in, the warm, inviting ambiance set the tone for a special evening. We decided to splurge a little and try the lobster — and let me tell you, it exceeded all expectations. The lobster was cooked to perfection: tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The presentation was elegant, and it was clear that real care was taken in its preparation. But a great dish is only half the story — the service made the night truly memorable. Maria was our server, and she was absolutely outstanding. She was attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely seemed to enjoy ensuring our experience was top-notch. Her friendly demeanor and professional touch elevated the evening. The menu at Three’s is impressively diverse, with something to appeal to many tastes. From fresh seafood to hearty mains, and a wide selection of beverages (including cocktails, wines, and artisanal drinks), you’re spoiled for choice. We spent quite a while just browsing the menu — which is always a good sign. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, striking a nice balance between casual and relaxed. Soft lighting, tasteful decor, and a pleasant level of background music all contributed to an environment where you can enjoy both conversation and your meal without distractions. All told, we left feeling delighted and looking forward to returning. Three’s Bar & Grill offers outstanding food, top-tier service (thanks again, Maria!), and a warm, inviting vibe. Highly recommended for a romantic dinner, special occasion, or just a night out to treat yourself.

Our last night of a two-week trip was spent here. The kids were left at the condo so we could have a date night. Our only regret was that we couldn't go back. Honestly, we would have gone every other night for apps. I was a professional chef for 10 years, we ate all over Maui, and this place was by far the best. And the prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back next time on the first day of our trip!

From the reviews ,we decided to try this restaurant . We ordered some of the food on the menu that were mentionned ( *Guy Fieri from the Food network show DDD) : crispy pork belly ( tasty) , Ginger crusted hawaïan Fish ( it was blue marlin that night and was delicious) and Chimichurri grilled salmon ( husband said it was ok ) .Over all , service was good and I guess it depend on what you choose on the menu . We had a coupon for 20% from Snorkle Store 👍🏻

Unbelievable! This was the best overall dining experience in Maui. Chris was our waiter and knew every dish and had phenomenal recommendations. We spent half as much as Mama’s fish house and got twice the food and quality

Came here last night as recommended by a friend’s friend & it did not disappoint! We made a reservation a couple hours beforehand but I’m not sure if it was really needed. Our server, Sonny, was the best! For small plates ordered the panko crusted ahi as recommended by Sonny, & also the lobster crab ravioli which were both delicious. For rolls we did the Hawaiian, scallop & cucumber, spicy hamachi, takah, & unagi rolls which were all tasty. The prices seemed reasonable & weren’t significantly more than what I would pay for sushi at home. I would definitely come again & recommend to friends & family. (For pictures, I didn’t take one of the lobster crab ravioli or I think the unagi roll)

Sansei is more than just a sushi spot—it’s a Hawaiian culinary experience that masterfully fuses Japanese tradition with bold Pacific Rim creativity. Whether you're dining in Honolulu, Waikoloa, Kapalua, or Kihei, expect a lively atmosphere, exceptional service, and a menu that surprises and delights. The food? Fresh, flavorful, and adventurous. The Asian Rock Shrimp Cake is a must-try appetizer: crispy on the outside, tender inside, and rich in umami. The Mango Crab Salad Hand Roll is a tropical dream—sweet, creamy, and perfectly balanced. And the Panko-Crusted Ahi? A standout dish with a golden crunch that gives way to silky, seared tuna. The vibe is upbeat yet casual, perfect for everything from romantic dates to group dinners. The staff are warm and attentive, adding a touch of aloha to every interaction. Sansei manages to be both a local favorite and a tourist treasure. It’s the kind of place you remember long after the vacation ends—and the kind of food you wish you could bring home with you. Rating: 9/10 – A flavor-packed must-visit

Our only regret is we discovered this place the 2nd to last night of our trip but we did make it two nights in a row! If you’re staying at the Ritz, do yourself a favor and make the 7 minute walk here for dinner. Having come back from my first trip to Japan 2 months ago, my standards for sushi were high. However, the melt in your mouth butterfish nigiri along with a tuna crunch roll, was the perfect marriage of US style rolls and Japanese fresh fish. Service was phenomenal both times we were there. We hope to come back soon!

I’m doing another sushi review—with the disclaimer that I usually stick to sushi rolls—but this place is an absolute must-visit. It’s like a culinary theme park for sushi lovers. The rolls and dishes coming out of the kitchen are visually stunning, packed with flavor, and made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The staff is outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Even during the off-season, the restaurant drew a steady crowd, which says a lot about its reputation. I can only imagine how packed it gets during peak season. If you plan to visit, I highly recommend making a reservation to secure a seat or at least reduce your wait time. —- 4 days later. Unfortunately, our second visit was a letdown. While the menu still features some great options, it was clear a different chef was behind the counter this time. The sushi rolls were underwhelming—more like small samples than full rolls. To be fair, I’m not a huge sushi fan and usually stick to a familiar category, but even by those standards, these just didn’t measure up.

We stopped here for a dinner date night while staying at the near by hotel. Craving some sushi, it’s nice to have this restaurant close by to the hotel. The food we ordered was tasty and the fish fresh.

Wow!! You absolutely must try the butterfish. It is hands down one of the best fish dishes I have ever had. The sauce was perfection and it just melts in your mouth. All of the food was excellent, we ordered so much! Nothing disappointed. Us and we had a great time. We went on Monday and showed up around 4:45 to a big line of people waiting for the happy hour. It was a perfect dinner for our last night in Maui!

KO in the Fairmont hotel is a very upscale restaurant with a positive upbeat vibe. We’ve been to this hotel before and ate at the fish market restaurant which was very good but a little stuffy compared to KO. The staff was very accommodating. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and explained all of the dishes very well and his recommendation for me was spectacular. The presentation was spectacular and something you would see on TV. Oliver food was great. We had fish and steak and a side of noodles would definitely stop back in here and have a great meal if you’re on the fence of looking for something stop by here and you won’t be disappointed.

Food was delicious and well-presented. Our top items were the honey lavender shrimp, short ribs (delicious in every iteration across the Kea Lani hotel offerings), and the fresh catch. Octopus appetizer was good, but not great. Tempura lobster was good, but very one-dimensional. Fresh catch, short ribs, and octopus represented in attached photos. I will note that the fresh catch rivaled Mama’s Fish House in terms of quality of the fish, preparation, and overall experience.

Chef Matt De La Cruz (no relation🫣) hit a home run with new menu that's very delicious and is connective with Hawaii and its fruits and bounty. Delicious steamed fish, wagyu steak and an unbelievably delicate strawberry ice dessert to end the meal. Their Mai Tai was different and strong, and was served in a tall glass. The table setting upon arrival has a lovely wooden table setting that focuses on the Valley Isle. I have a total yearn to return to Ko!

Kō delivers an amazing mix of service, setting, and menu focus. The open-air layout offers a comfortable upscale vibe. Staff ( Bryan and Peni ) were friendly, attentive, and perfect for the evening - would highly recommend! The menu reflects local ingredients, with thoughtful updates from Chef Matt. We got to try a lot of the menu and I was stuffed. Good accessibility, suitable for small and large groups. Expect $50–100 per person. Great for locals hosting guests or celebrating special occasions. They offer Kamaʻāina which is rare to find at such a high end restaurant!

IMO, Ko's menu got a whole lot better under their new chef. ATMOSPHERE: Located poolside in the Fairmont Kea Lani. The open air restaurant features trendy decor, spacious booths, high tops, regular tables, and odd bar seating that's split in half; one half of the circular bar is traditional seating while the other half sits on the floor below about 4 steps down, giving diners privacy but no view of anything besides the wall holding up the bar counter. BEVERAGE: Afternoon Ti Vodka-based mojito-like cocktail. FOOD: Their old menu was overpriced, underwhelming Filipino cuisine. Not anymore! Ahi on the Rock Cook it yourself fresh tuna pieces on a blazing hot rock. Very good. Ahi Tataki on Shrimp Toast Flavorful with nice textures. Chilled Bang Bang Chicken & Somen Noodles. Tasty & refreshing. Lavender Honey Crispy Shrimp Traditional dish. Crispy and not overly sweet. Paniolo Bone-In Ribeye Great flavor! SERVICE: Consistently good. TIP: They're currently closed for renovations as of this review.

Best meal I’ve ever had at a resort. Service phenomenal as well. Very impressive. Roland and Kristina took great care of us! 5 stars.

Restaurant just re-opened this week with a new menu and it is incredible! All of our food was delicious, the drinks were great and our server, Drew, was phenomenal!

This was an unforgettable dinner experience, from service to food- everything was of superior quality. Our special occasion, honeymoon, was acknowledged by all staff members which I thought was so sweet. While very expensive, dinner here is a lovely experience. Our server, I believe his name was Shane, was top notch. The food was so good, our steaks were cooked perfectly, and the drinks were absolutely phenomenal. We will always remember our dinner here! Thank you!

My wife and I stayed at the Four Seasons on our honeymoon and were fortunate enough to have a few fantastic restaurants on property, including Duo. We came in later in the night without any reservations and they were very accommodating seating us very quickly. Our server Beau was awesome he was giving us the low down on the menu, what’s popular for food and drink selections. My wife and I got the King Crab legs, Curry, crab cake, oysters, filet with the peppercorn cause (must try), and the catch of the day. He coursed it out perfectly for us to enjoy an unforgettable dining experience. Sitting outside under the patio with the fountains from the pool and the tiki torches setting an unforgettable atmosphere. To top everything off the gave us a chocolate desert to celebrate our special occasion. Thank you Beau and the rest of the staff at Duo, truly at 5 star experience I’d highly recommend stopping in, we will be back next time we’re in Maui!

DUO Steakhouse at the Four Seasons hands down the best restaurant I visited during my trip to Maui. From the food to the views and service, everything was a 10/10 so good I had to come back a second time. To start, I highly recommend the DUO wedge salad great flavor and a perfect appetizer. The crispy Brussels sprouts and roasted mushrooms were also solid sides to share. On my first visit, I had the dry-aged bone-in ribeye (rare). Personally not my type of cut , it was mostly fat and pretty chewy, so not my favorite cut. The wagyu truffle burger was ok. But on my second visit… I had the Australian Wagyu and the Snake River Farms American Wagyu Flat Iron, and both were incredible tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Definitely recommend those if you’re going for steak. Also the Roasted Shallot Jus is a must sauce for the steak. For sides, the garlic truffle fries provably my favorite thing crispy, rich, and great with the steaks. As for dessert, the soufflé cheesecake was my favorite light, fluffy, and just sweet enough. I also tried the Chocolate Macadamia Torte, which was good too, though a bit too chocolatey (if you’re not into rich chocolate, maybe go for something lighter). Overall, DUO is a must-visit if you’re staying in Wailea or nearby. Great food and amazing Four Seasons service. I’ll definitely be back on my next trip.

We ordered the tomahawk which was delicious and cooked to perfection/ seasoned well. The only dissappointment is frozen lobster being used.service is fine dining. Servers attentive. King crab leg was a teaser but yummy and fresh. Spent over 200$ but everything was flavorful woth no issues with meal we ordered.

Duo for our anniversary was an incredible place to dine. The experience starts from the entrance to your exit. Everyone will genuinely greet you. Our waitress was amazing and took excellent care of us without interrupting my wife and my conversations. We had looked at the menu before arriving and had a general idea of what we wanted, but their whisky list was chocked full of unicorns. This gave me a chance to try the Parker series limited release. The bartender and our waitress kindly allowed me to photo the bottle for my tasting list. The food was seasoned well and exquisitely prepared. Beet Carpaccio was flavorful with burrata cheese and candied walnuts. The King crab legs were huge and we could have them warm or cold (we chose cold, but with warm butter), the ribeye and tuna were well seasoned giving them some amazing depth of flavor worthy of any high end restaurant (our compliments to the chef), and desert was special. With most restaurants being of equal billing in the resorts of Wailea, Duo stands out for the highest quality, greatest of service, and worth the expense! We will definitely be back on our next visit

I took breakfast everyday here, DELICIOUS Caramelized Banana French Toast, with eggs and bacon on the side. And you had dinner one night, the food was super good.

I cant say anything bad about this place. I came here to celebrate my honeymoon and the food was amazing and the service was on point, i cant remember my servers name but he was really nice he really made my honeymoon feel very special and if your reading this thanks alot man! My steak was delicious, the dessert everything. Great experience great food and loved the vibe!

Great customer service, enjoyed the stuffed mushroom and calamari for happy hour. ribeye steak cooked to perfection. Gumbo was interesting, definitely not authentic but edible and seasoned like soup.

A high end steakhouse, slightly more casual than other Ruth's Chris on the mainland. Intimate atmosphere. The professional and friendly staff are excellent. The steaks are delicious. Various cuts are prepared to order on extremely hot plates. Aged appropriately and meticulously prepared, they're the best. Side dishes are a large carte. Each are the perfect accompaniment to the entrees. If you're not sure what you'd like, ask your server for suggestions. A full bar area is available. There is plenty of free parking adjacent to the restaurant.

A birthday dinner brought me and my gang to Maui's second Ruth's Chris, located in the Shops at Wailea. BRIEF HISTORY: The original Chris Steak House was founded in 1927 in New Orleans by entrepreneur Chris Matulich. The business was sold to single mother Ruth Fertel in 1965, who had no experience in the steakhouse biz. She was self-taught on the fundamentals of butchery and utilized her brother's restaurant space and family recipes to start up her new venture. After a fire destroyed the original building in 1976, she moved to another location but the sales agreement prevented her from utilizing the same name at a different address, so hence the new name of Ruth's Chris was born. ATMOSPHERE: I'm pretty sure the restaurant had a nice ocean view years ago before an empty parcel that backs up to the restaurant developed a hotel/condo that rudely took away their entire view. The inside is simple yet elegantly decorated. Seating is a mix of low tops and huge booths. The vibe was a bit dreary as the place wasn't that crowded, but we did dine at 8:30pm which could be the reason why. Americans eat so early compared to the rest of the world. MENU: Seafood-based apps, salads, soups, steak, fish, lamb, chicken, shrimp, desserts. FOOD: Escargot Five pieces came to a dish. Not many places on Maui serve this, so when available, I have to order it! Ruth's version was surprisingly good. The shelled snails were moist, buttery, cheesy and served hot. Louisiana Seafood Gumbo Thank you to those who posted pics of this as you're the reason why I ordered it! I absolutely love gumbo and had many-a-bowl in the motherland just last year. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought I was back in Naw'lins. Seriously that good. Savory, flavorful and I didn't share one spoonful! Highly recommended. Petite Filet & Lobster Tail (special) The steak was very good, the lobster tail not so much. It was moist but mushy for the most part. Was it under or over cooked? Old? Should've stuck with shrimp. Baked Potato I'm glad our server informed us that the sides are big enough for two to share. The menu description listed this spud as a whole pound, so my friend and I thankfully split it as it was huge! The potato was done nice and firm, moist and topped generously with cheese, sour cream and bacon (I nixed the chives). Roasted Brussels Sprouts This was a great veggie dish to split between the four of us. The flavors and texture were spot-on. Cremini Mushrooms I'm a mushroom freak and probably could've eaten the whole thing by myself. Whole mushrooms were done in a savory, buttery sauce and went well with everything! SERVICE: Host greeting was immediate and friendly. Jared (2019) took exceptional care of us. He has a great personality and sense of humor that made our evening that much more enjoyable. Thanks! OVERALL: Very good food, sans for my lobster tail. The prices are high but well worth it.

My experience is good because they have a really good service!!! My server was Brian and he is a really good server, no complaints!!!! Fish was good but the steak wasn’t cooked right! Good experience just maybe bad luck with the steak!!!!

This place is expensive, but definitely worth it! It's the best place I've gone to for steak here on Maui. Until my dad and I ate here tonight, I thought I knew a good steak. Thank you for making me realize I've been eating steak wrong for 40+ years. 😂😂😂 The service is excellent, the atmosphere is calm and quiet. It's a dining experience definitely worth the cost! Oh, and a word of advice; when they tell you a side dish/dessert is big, take their word for it. I barely finished my apple pie a la mode! Anyway, go check them out at the Shops At Wailea!

Came here to celebrate my honeymoon and im going to be completely honest. The service was in point, my server was very nice and professional,however the food wasn’t.. i didnt like my steak at all, it literally tasted like the steak from Chilis. I was gonna go to Spago’s at the Four seasons but i didn’t feel like catching an uber out there so ended up here.. they really need to make their food better because they claim to be prime meat but i dont think so. The day before i went to DUO and their steak was excellent. I asked for my steak to be medium rare but they didn’t really know how to cook it. I spent $250 dls and left feeling disappointed because I didn’t think the food was going to be that bad.

At first, this restaurant seemed like a top-tier steakhouse, but it didn’t live up to expectations. Our server, Blaine, was friendly and did his best, but he was clearly overworked, resulting in long wait times and inconsistent service. The appetizers and sides, especially the lamb chops, were excellent. However, the main courses were disappointing. We ordered three medium-well New York strip steaks—all arrived undercooked. Even after sending them back, two were still not right. We ended up cooking them ourselves on the 500-degree plates, but by then, we were already full. To top it off, it took a long time to receive the check. This was our first time leaving a premium steakhouse feeling frustrated and like we overpaid.

Nuka in Haiku offers a cozy, stylish setting with a menu that leans into Japanese classics. While the sushi and rolls were just okay — fresh but not particularly memorable — the meat skewers really stood out. Perfectly grilled and full of flavor, they were a great surprise and easily one of the best parts of the meal. The real highlight, though, was the miso cod - buttery, tender, and deeply satisfying. It alone is worth coming for. Service was solid and the space has a nice ambiance, making it a good choice if you’re in the area and looking for a relaxed dinner with some standout bites.

Delicious sushi spot upcountry. My first time dining at Nuka was outstanding. The highly quality of the fish was noticeable. Everything was fresh and absolutely delicious. We sat at the sushi bar and the sushi chefs were very warm and friendly. The service from our waitress was okay- she wasn’t the friendliest. Our food came out quickly after placing our order which was awesome because we were hungry! We didn’t have a reservation upon arrival and waited about 15 minutes for a party of two. Its indoor dining only and the space is on the smaller side. There is sushi bar seating as well (about 10 spots). We enjoyed the ceviche and mocktails from their evening specials menu, along with the dragonfly roll, maguro nigiri and ahi salad from their regular menu. We’ll definitely be back.

Dined here many many times. The food was always amazing, some of my favorite cocktails, and there has almost always been high quality fish. The waitlist operation is inconvenient, but if you’re willing to get through that then bear in mind you will be treated unkindly by the servers. On multiple occasions I have had horrible service. It’s hard to say how many times i’ve actually enjoyed any service i’ve received here aside from the people that ran the food. Servers are miserable, rude, stuck up, and they do not have any sense of recovery after being rude. It’s unfortunate that I don’t have it in me to leave a bad tip so i’ll always leave 20%, but after my last negative interaction, I will never be returning. It’s unfortunate as the food and drinks are great, sushi chefs are talented, the food runners are nice and friendly, but your server staff is consistently rude and ruins the entire experience. Don’t come here if you want decent service.

Before Nuka, this place used to be a Napa store and before that a mini market store. ATMOSPHERE: They're located in a free-standing building on Haiku Road just across the street from the Haiku Cannery mall with lots of free parking. The Asian decor fits the restaurant perfect. It's a small open-air room that fits maybe 50 people max, with regular tables and sushi bar seating. RESERVATIONS: They don't take reservations so be prepared to wait during peak dinner hours especially on the weekend. FAVE FOODS: Karaage Chicken Very small portion but very really good. The chicken was very tender and the light karaage batter was delish. Chicken Katsu Donburi I am a fan of this place after eating this dish! The rice is laced with a sweet/salty soy flavor, topped with a over-hard fried egg cooked in the same sauce, topped with deep fried & super tender chicken katsu strips and finished off with thinly sliced nori. DEELISH! Tempura Shrimp Udon I simply love noodles, so this was an easy decision for my second time here. The broth is a bit sweet but very good (I am NOT a fan of sweet broths but this was an exception). Accompanied by a generous amount of shrimp, green bean, onion and mushroom tempura. Ahi Katsu Donburi Delicious rice dish flavored with a sweet-soy seasoning which is topped with an over-hard fried egg, and chunks of breaded and seared ahi. I personally would've liked to have the ahi cooked all the way through which would make the dish more visually pleasing, though it's still very good overall. Portion size is perfect. SERVICE: Everyone has been great all these years. OVERALL: Maui's best Japanese restaurant.

Food is always delicious, definitely my favorite restaurant on Maui… Our service last night went above and beyond, had a great time and enjoyed every bit of it.

I've been to Nuka twice. Once a few years ago (it was excellent), and this past weekend (it was not). Service: We showed up a few minutes after they opened and scored one of the few open tables. We sat for 10-15 minutes waiting to place a drink order. What we later learned was our server was busy with a table seated after us. I had to ask a different employee for our server. She eventually arrived and didn't apologize for the delay. The service from this point was ok...clumsy, not horrible, but def. not gracious. Cocktails were delivered with no napkin to absorb the sweat off the glass. I've worked the front of the house in fine dining and It felt like the staff receive minimal training, and are delivering food as they would bowls of cereal to their children. Lots of staff only carrying 1-2 items at a time - ie a lack of efficiency. Food: This was better. We tried the miso butterfish, a tempura appetizer on the specials menu, and a variety of sashimi and sushi. These were well prepared, and made up for feeling like they didn't care if we were there or not. Salmon sashimi was not fresh, and remained on the platter after it was sampled. The remainder was fresh and tasty. Summary: Due to it's location and status as the only sushi restaurant for miles, I think management has decided they are busy and customer service doesn't need to be prioritized. That's true until it isn't, and competition appears. Our bill for two came to nearly $250. Did we feel like we got our money's worth and look forward to returning? No.

I literally flew a few thousand miles to eat here again! Bradley.. great to see you again and you always blow it out of the water! Food & service at the sushi bar were outstanding.. if you have ever been here before you know that this is an experience in itself.

Stopped by Hula Grill Kāʻanapali to catch the sunset and enjoy a drink and a bite. The vibe here is great — a big, lively restaurant that’s clearly very popular on the west shore of Maui. I ordered the ceviche and the fish & chips. The ceviche was fresh and tasty, but it’s a small portion, really just enough for one person. The fish & chips were okay, nothing particularly memorable. Overall, it’s a fun spot to grab a drink and some food while watching the sunset, but don’t come expecting an outstanding dining experience — the atmosphere is the main highlight here.

Service was quick and friendly. Our server was nice and we talked about our tattoos. No wait to get in. We had the kapulu joe which was a sweet pulled pork sandwhich and ahi poke bowl. Both were delicious. Prices were pretty reasonable. It is located at whaler's village so the area is pretty happening during the day. It was pretty relaxed vibe with live music playing cover songs on the ukulele. It is definately a good spot to stop and grab lunch if you are shopping in the village or coming g back from a fishing or snorkeling outing.

This is my fourth visit to Maui and each time I've made a trip to the Hula Grill for great meals either by myself or without others. This time I'm visiting while attending a women's conference close to the Hula Grill. We arrived in Maui on late Friday morning and headed over to the restaurant from the airport. I had a reservation for five, we had a wonderful lunch and lucky us, we were comped a wonderful Alaskan style dessert, delicious. This evening our group had grown to 10 and I booked the 5p time slot before realizing we would need an additional :30 - :45 minutes. So on our lunch break I drove over and spoke to the hostess re a later arrival and she said yes, we might have a short wait but ok. Around 5:15 p I received a text, then a call to confirm and I let them know we were on our way. A group of 5 in each car, our first group arrived about 5:30p and the others in our party were following. Our waiter Matty, appeared and took our order for drinks, then expressed concern about the other 5 in our group. His attitude became more edgy as the minutes went by, after :15 minutes 4 more arrived and Matty appeared relieved. Our remaining member arrived and full on service finally was underway. However the waiter attitude situation never really improved, such a disappointment. He needs to be consistent in his behavior as a server. Our final bill was over $1000 including tax and tip. The food was great, the atmosphere was excellent especially since most were first time diners @Hula Grill they were very happy. Maybe Matty was having an off-night because as we were taking photos he offered to take our group shots.

Great atmosphere! A little loud , but there is a lot going on! Service was good , order a filet mignon which was good , the mashed potatoes were just okay , shrimp was perfect ! Overall we had a great experience! Probably would have order the fish next time !

I tried everything on the table so here’s my extensive opinion 😂 Drinks: go for the mango mezcal cocktail, it’s the best. The lychee martini was very sweet so if you don’t like sweet go for something else! Very solid Caesar salad 👌 like a remarkably good Caesar salad. Seafood potstickers were better than the pork ones, both good but if you’re deciding between them go with the seafood ones. Pork was shredded just fyi! The salmon sashimi was melt in your mouth. Ahi steak was fantastic, as was the pork shank. Didn’t love the macadamia nut mahi mahi. Great atmosphere and always a good time!

As you see from one of my pictures there’s half cheeseburger, our waitress know what we was planning we picked one entree and one appetizer to share, I personally can’t eat much so I don’t like the feeling of overeating. So she asked us if we wanted the burger to be cuts in half and of course I said yes if that’s possible. I told our waitress that I don’t want cheese on the burger but it’s served with cheese but luckily I can scraped out pretty good from my burger, I’m not allergic to it I just don’t like the taste of the cheese. The Hula burger was really tasty.. we both really liked it, it was perfect! Coconut calamari was so so, not really a fan of it. Then we tried the Hula Pie, the Hula Pie was amazing! Our waitress was Amber F, at first impression she seems cold and a bit unfriendly but at the halfway through the end on our late lunch I found her she’s a sweetheart! Turns out I really happy and like her personality 🤙🏼

Overall: 2.5 Subpar, overpriced food. Solid service and atmosphere. Went twice since it was very close to where we were staying and that was plenty. Won't be back on our visit; too many other better places. Food: 2 stars. During our first visit, we had the lobster tails and broccolini, then had the hula pie. Lobster was good. Not a fan of the Hawaiian-style rice but was pretty standard. Broccolini had too much lemon flavor. Hula pie was 3.5 stars but not big on sweets, just had to try. In the 2nd visit, we tried the Thai chicken flatbread. It was very sweet and the chicken tasted like canned chicken with some fish flavor. Maybe fish was cooked along with canned chicken... not sure, but we sent back. Had cheeseburger with Caesar salad. Salad was actually very good. The crunchy stuff on top and their Caesar dressing was unique and very tasty. Burger tasted like spam and was very subpar. Drinks: 2 stars. Weak cocktails. Below average flavor. OK beer selection- lavaman was solid; one of Maui Brewing's best beers. Service: 4 stars. Waitress was on top of things. Didn't wait too long for anything. She was likeable and respectful. When we returned pizza in 2nd visit, they were very nice and understanding. Atmosphere: 4 stars. Live music was great first night: soothing classic songs, good voice and vibe; had a hula dancer. Music in 2nd visit was ok. Sunset over beach was very nice. They lit tiki torches around sunset also. Great vibe. Had bar and barefoot sand area. Didn't sit in main dining area. Not a lot of TVs to watch sports outside but not sure about in main dining area. Price: 2 stars. Overpriced even a bit for Hawaii.

Wow, this place has so many reviews, thanks mainly to the tourist folk. ATMOSPHERE: The always-packed eatery is located in the Azeka Shopping Center next to Peggy Sue's. All indoor & outdoor seating on cool surfboard-shaped tables are communal with posted signs encouraging the sharing of personal bubble space. Thankfully we did takeout as I love my space, especially when eating lol. MENU: Seafood apps, salads, chowder, tacos, sandwiches, rice plates, fish/shrimp & chips, pasta. FOOD: Shrimp & Chips My request of doing half shrimp and half fish with chips was denied. The seven pieces of breaded shrimp were on the smallish side, possibly even frozen, but deep fried perfectly and not oily, with a generous portion of shoestring fries, a cup of coleslaw, and cocktail sauce & ketchup for dipping. Very mainstream but good. SERVICE: Friendly and helpful gal was taking orders. Our takeout order took about 20 minutes as they were pumping even at 2 in the afternoon. A friendly guy brought our package out to us, double checked the order, and thanked us. Very good service! OVERALL: The words "coconut" and "fish" definitely riles up the tourist folk, LOL.

Wanted to try the « Famous Fish tacos » : it was the best I ever ate ! We ate at the restaurant but people seems to order and pick up more then sit in even though there are many tables :you pay first and you get your cutlery and wait for your order .The employee who takes the order is very friendly . We tried also their Poké ahi and salmon ( choice of shoyu, spicy or teriyaki ) and there were good .

I stopped by Coconuts Fish Café at the Azeka location and tried the Ono grilled with salad—wow, so good! The fish was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and grilled just right. The salad was crisp and refreshing, which balanced the meal nicely. Great casual spot with a local vibe. Definitely a must-try if you love fresh seafood!

Cute place, good customer service! Good food! Beware of wasabi in the coconut milk coleslaw on the tacos. Wish they would list that, waste of $24 for my dinner :(

Great location, friendly staff, the happy hour menu was great and the food was delicious. Coconut shrimp was crispy and tasty, the poke was amazing, and the fish tacos were fresh and amazing.

The best fish tacos. If you are in Kihei, you have to try this place. We ordered fish tacos and shrimp tacos. Both of them are delicious, but the shrimp tacos are perfect.

I wasn’t planning on leaving a review until I noticed another review mentioning wasabi in the coleslaw. Our server assured us multiple times that no wasabi was used in anything we ordered — but there definitely was! It was very obvious once we tasted it. I feel a bit better now after reading Ruth’s review confirming the same thing. Not bad food or service overall, but it seems like there’s a lack of awareness about some of the ingredients being used, which could be a concern for anyone with allergies or sensitivities.

Cafe O’Lei in Kihei is such a gem! We stopped in for lunch and left completely satisfied. I ordered the steak tip sandwich, and let me tell you — the fries were absolute perfection. Crispy, golden, and somehow stayed crunchy until the very last bite (seriously, how do they do that?). The sandwich itself was solid — juicy steak tips, melty cheese, and a horseradish aioli that added just the right amount of zing. I only wish it had a little more heat, but that’s just the spice-lover in me talking. The bread had a slightly bitter aftertaste, but it was still hearty enough to hold everything together without falling apart — points for that. My partner went for the fish of the day, which was fresh, perfectly cooked, and had that just-caught Hawaiian flavor you can’t fake. The sides were just as thoughtfully prepared, and everything on the plate felt fresh and well-balanced. On top of that, the service was genuinely amazing — warm, friendly, and attentive without hovering. The place is spotless, too, which always makes me feel like the kitchen is running just as smoothly as the dining room. If you’re in Kihei and looking for a spot with great food, super clean vibes, and service that makes you feel taken care of, this is a must-try. Pro tip: get the steak tip sandwich and a side of fries, and don’t be afraid to ask for extra aioli — you’ll thank me later.

Make a reservation! This is a highly popular restaurant any night of the week and it’s worth it to plan ahead. Everyone comes here for the Maui Onion Soup En Croute and they are right to do so. Cooked in a wood fire oven and delivered fresh and hot to your table. Delicious drinks made expertly, friendly and professional staff, chill and beautiful atmosphere. We ended up staying for a full meal instead of our original plan for soup and a cocktail. Everything was delectable. Make sure to make time to catch the sunset on Kihei beach before dinner.

This restaurant is located in the center Kihei and is an excellent restaurant for local dishes and flavors. It has a casual atmosphere with comfortable tables. The staff is friendly and very efficient. The food is excellent, on par with popular fine dining restaurants. It's known for its mahi mahi. Anything you order will be delicious. Large windows surround the Hawaiian themed dining room. A full bar and counter anchor the center of the dining room.

It is a truly extraordinary experience where you get to know your food: especially as a newbie on Maui! Funny and knowledgeable waiter - a true slam poet! Mahi Mahi fish blackened or as fish and chips are tasty with perfect batter and crunchy French fries. But when it is on the menu, you have to have the Ono fish with Cocos curry on rice. And try Hale Kapena and Maui wowie! And when you still have place in your happy belly try the deserts! We will be back!! Slam poetry of the day: „the ocean is our cooler, the mountains are our ice house“.

It was our last day in Maui and we decided to have dinner in here. After couple of the bad experiences with the food and mostly customer service we didn’t expect anything miraculous, but everything starting with the wonderful hostess, bartender and ending with the marvellous food and cocktails - was gorgeous!!!Thank you for a wonderful last day on Maui. We really enjoyed each bite and sip!

Fantastic!!! We wandered off the resorts to try something local and this place was in the top favorites! The outside first appears to be less than top quality but once you make it upstairs and into the restaurant ans try the food and drinks, you'll want to go back. Our sever was on top of his game and we can't find one thing to complain about. We'll make this a must go to spot everytime we visit maui.

We made reservations for a party of four and naively requested a table with an ocean view. There’s a thin sliver of an ocean view behind the high rise resorts located across the street. The service was rushed. If they had not tried to rush us…. we would have been able to enjoy ourselves. Overall we had less than an hour for dinner. The cocktails were alright. Our appetizers were delicious. If the food had been hot (not room temperature) it would have been good. Overall we were disappointed.

We went for Happy Hour and as always the food was spectacular! Happy Hour is our favorite time to go because we get to try a larger variety of things, and still respect our budget. Our service was really not great, the waiter kept taking everyone's plates with food still on it without asking if anyone was finished. I had to get my son's meal replaced because he took half his lunch. We didn't have a long wait but it was also because we had reservations for our group.

Had a wonderful experience with Ethan, as my waiter. He was attentive but didn't hover. The Spaghetti squash entree with shrimp, was fresh, delicious and so unique from most menus. And then I spotted my favorite dessert when I visit Maui, but hadn't located so far this visit. The pineapple creme brulee was beautiful to look at and absolutely delicious. So thankful for my spontaneous lunch at Tommy Bahamas. Thanks Ethan for the friendly, personal service that made my lunch even nicer.

Our first time at a Tommy Bahama during our stay in Wailea. Located within the Shops at Wailea, in walking distance from major resorts. Plenty of parking in the free parking lot. Fully handicap accessible via ramps and/or elevator. Friendly and attentive front desk staff and ushers. We were seated immediately, had a reservation but the restaurant wasn't very busy at dinner time. Observation: unable to book through Open Table, but no issue to get a reservation when calling in. The lady looked up my profile from my cell#. Strange business practice... Nice table indoors, next to open tall doors to the terrace/patio. Good music in the background, noise level was rather low, easy to talk. The waitress gave us time to choose our orders. Excellent cocktails, shared a good starter followed by steaks. Almost perfectly cooked, slight too much for my taste (my filet was more medium than medium rare). Good quality and flavors. Great maybe not excellent though. Service speed seemed rushed and not well timed between starter and mains. Steaks were consequently warm but not hot anymore. I certainly get the american approach of a typical fast dinner, nevertheless this is a major vacation destination and the place wasn't too busy. Minus two stars for the service overall. Recommended with limits, open to sample another Tommy Bahama location.

Adam our server was absolutely a delight to get to know and help us with recommendations. We loved every bite of food. We got to know each other a little bit and mentioned it was our last day on the island, we were here for an anniversary. As kind and generous and welcoming as possible, our server Adam treated us with a yummy dessert to celebrate us! What wonderful hospitality and Experience! We couldn’t be more happy with our dinner at Tommy’s.

The food was delicious! The prices, even during happy hour, were a little ridiculous. The location wasn’t great. Not much of a view and squished in the corner of a high end shopping mall with terrible parking. Saying the service was Sub Par doesn’t quite cover it. My kids waited over an hour to get their food. Tons of other food was brought to the table and we had to ask specifically for the them to bring out our kids food because they were starving. Then while other food was being brought out, half of both of my kids meals was bussed from the table without asking if we wanted to take the very expensive food home with us. My kids weren’t even done eating. We complained about the food being taken, and it happened again to other appetizers that people were still eating, but again didn’t realize we’re being taken until they were gone. The drinks were ok, but again way too expensive, even during happy hour. Our waiter was not very friendly and would not have gotten a tip if it were not included due to the size of our group.

This was a nice little place. A tad difficult to find. Service was excellent. Food was okay. I had the crab cakes which were a little too fishy for my taste. I had the pineapple brûlée and it was delicious!

Wonderfully curated menu and great cocktails. The atmosphere was high end casual as per normal Tommy Bahama style. Deserts were great. My only issue was that they seemed understaffed on wait staff and overstaffed on buss people.

As Google says this place is a laid-back serving GREAT fish, i mean really great. Location is good cuz it's right on Front Street so after dinner you can walk down and get some ice cream or shaved ice for dessert but back to the restaurant. Amazing fresh fish. We started with the fried calamari which was super delicious. Tinder nicely battered and a great start to a great dinner I had the blackened Ono. Mind blowing experience. Spiced nicely and Ono was full of flavor. Fish tacos were very delicious, they did not short you on the amount of fish that was in there.

Had heard such good things we had to try it out and we were not disappointed. Ahi Tuna prepared Cajun style with potatoes and rice was a winner! Huge portion of Tuna..was expecting a portion about half as big. Potatoes were seasoned and tasty treats. The salmon was also very good when paired with the rice. Kids quesadilla was decent but they have no sour cream and the salsa was lacking. It's a small place with limited seating, some liquor and beer is available. Coke products are featured. It is not fancy but is very good.

Super reasonably priced with excellent service. Was very busy and got food quickly. Food was a big under seasoned but for the cost and how busy great time. The secret sauce was sweet and slightly spicy. Fun times.

The fish and chips were very well seasoned and fried super well. Had a ton of flavor and crisp. The chicken pasta was in a sea of butter, but can you ask for more out of an Alfredo dish?! The ahi burger was great and not overcooked at all. The downside of the meal were the fish tacos which felt like a big salad and lacked some flavor. This was a top meal for us at Maui but the Hana ranch was still the best yet.

So fresh, their magic sauce is amazing, the staff is super friendly and basically as soon as you take a sit the dishes are served. What is more, the prices are very reasonable for Hawaii. We've been here twice during our 3-days stay in Lahaina, that should be enough of a recommendation.

Delicious food. My husband had the chicken teriyaki with fries and I had the red snapper Cajun style with red potatoes. We also ordered calamari and a salad. The mai tais were good too.

We found this little quaint place by accident after paying to park nearby. Front Street has limited parking so pay lots are really the only way to go. We stopped in for lunch after seeing a large crowd here. Wow. We were not disappointed at all! I had the fish and chips which were lightly coated with a firm batter. My wife had the seafood pasta that was amazing. It was full of various seafood items such as fish, shrimp, and scallops. The sauce was rich and tasty. We also got a bowl of the New England Clam Chowder which contained a lot of clams and potato chunks. It was really good and with the $5 bowl price. We also tried the onion rings which are homemade. The fries are frozen but we’re good. This is a great little spot if you have a craving for seafood. They also have tacos and fajitas on the menu.

We had such a phenomenal experience at Plantation House for our honeymoon. The food, atmosphere and service were top tier. Lauren was such an attentive and pleasant server. She had great recommendations and made sure our night was special. The chef that curated this menu has a gift. Thank you for such an amazing night, one of the best meals we have had. Highly recommend the Lavender Whale (i substituted vodka for the gin it was amazing), scallops with added the lobster tail, my husband had the two fish special, then we both had dessert, creme brulee and cheesecake. Everything was spectacular! Not to mention the beautiful views! If you got to only one restaurant during your stay, go here.

We had a wonderful first experience tonight at The Plantation House. We were seated promptly at our reserved time. The decor is so clean and airy and comfortable. There really isn't a bad seat in the restaurant. Our server was very warm and helpful, and she checked on us often. Everyone enjoyed their dishes. The seafood was all fresh, and the lamb chops were decadently tender and juicy. Parking was valet only.

All of the food that we had was great! All of the servers were very nice and respectful. We had our reservations around 4:30pm and not many people were there when we first arrived but it got very busy as the night went on. This restaurant os a perfect place to watch the sunset and have a dinner. The price of the food is on the higher side but all of the food was fantastic. We would recommend going if you are in the area!

Plantation House has one of the greatest sunset views! It is so hard to beat and the food is phenomenal! Get a view looking out towards the sunset, and pro tip: you can walk downstairs and get an unobstructed view on the golf course. All the food was top notch. Don’t forget to the dessert.

Such a wonderful restaurant to eat and watch the sunset. We had salads, calamari, and several fish dishes. All of them were delicious. The service was great and the views were stunning. It’s a great place to sit and enjoy an evening.

Whilst staying locally the wife and I drove up to watch the sunset with cocktail in hand. We didn't have dinner reservations, but there is a bar area with a restricted view. The actual golf course was closed (water problems), but the restaurant was quite full and the food looked good. The front of house was friendly and helpful, but the barman was a little surly. We would probably dine there if we went back to Maui, but I think the restaurant closes at 8pm so book early and hit the circa 6pm sunset!

What a great place for a very nice dinner. Escargot was rich and yummy. Poke with the avocado wasabi was delicious. I had the duo fish plate with butter fish and a sea bass. That was a nice combo. Fiance had the filet mignon, pretty good cut of beef. Creme Brulee was excellent. Great golf course and ocean views. Hope to play next time.

Seriously not worth the hype & wait!! This restaurant came well recommended in many social media platforms and reviews and SO….we went & were very excited but was very disappointed. Restaurant is mostly open air & most shaded areas were full that day. Despite telling my host that we would like a more shaded seating area away from the sun, he left us at a seat sun tanning under the sun when there were still some sheltered seats inside the building. We had to move ourselves to find a better shaded seat. We tried the Lobster & Crab Stuffed Grilled Cheese that everybody was raving about & I don’t understand why it has such good reviews. The bread was good, creamy sauce was okay but where is the lobster & crab? I can barely see or taste it! Fish & Chips was fresh but the batter was so poorly made, they were thick and soft. Chips were okay but we were not there for the chips. Lastly, we had the Crispy Coconut Shrimp which was nothing to shout about. Shrimp was fresh but small & it doesn't have the fragrant coconut crispy batter that I have tasted in other places & it was over-powered by the sweet Thai chili & mango salsa. Overall, Down the Hatch didn’t deliver & I will gladly bring my money elsewhere with better service & food anytime. Don't waste your time!

Our group had lunch at Down the Hatch - Maui one afternoon after doing a submarine tour in the area. We saw an order of the Lobster & Crab Stuffed Grilled Cheese going to anther table and knew we had to try it.. and we're so glad we did! It was so very tasty! We also ordered the shrimp tacos, calamari, loaded fries and bacon brussel sprouts.. everything was delicious! Even though it was a hot afternoon, we found a table in the shade overlooking the koi fish pond.. and had the best time!

Times Visited: 1 I came for the fish tacos and they did not disappoint! Crispy, with some really excellent 'melt in your mouth' fish, topped with a bunch of awesome ingredients made for really delightful fish tacos. Probably the best I've ever had! Though there is a part of me that thinks the ingredient ratio is a bit off... Tacos kept leaking ingredients when I would take a bite. But overall, excellent. I am mildly disappointed with the chips and salsa... Chips aren't much to write home about, they're quite hard and while they might be made fresh, they definitely weren't hot when they came to me so that magic is kind of lost. The salsa is also not much to write home about, and desperately needs a change to make the flavor a bit more BOLD. It's such a weak flavor it's hard to notice what it's even made of. But I'm glad it's included with the meal, and would rather have free weak chips and salsa rather than no free side. The Coconut Crystal Shrimp appetizer though? Heavenly PERFECTION. They could not have made a more perfect dish. Sweet, sour, fresh, fruity, tangy, crunchy... Excellent. No notes on that! The staff were helpful, and I liked how hands off the experience was, just ordering from the front (and thank goodness, you can get your own unlimited soda refills), and while the atmosphere was maybe a notch or two too loud, I like how it was a local musician and I'm overall happy with the experience.

I went there fully expecting a tourist trap. NOT! Phenomenal food, very friendly servers, helpful order taker, great vibes, pleasant live music, prompt service. Prices were right and did I say the food was awesome! A “must do” in Maui. Lava lava shrimp with rice and veggies is fantastic! Tacos were fresh and delicious and so was the sampler. I would encourage them to umph-up their drinks though. Cocktails were weak and left a lot to be desired. Stick to beer and standard stuff and your experience will be perfect!

The line of people waiting says it all 😋 The food was great great. We asked direction to the guy at the information booth and gave us a free lava lava shrimp cocktail ticket 🎟 and that lava shrimp was onolicious. The foods are all so delicious. Price is just right. Service is great as they put us in a lower table because we have a small kid with us. Our server was 👌 awesome.

Arrived at 10:20am. Before the lunch menu switch and I didn’t want to wait so we ordered breakfast. You have to order at the counter and then find a table. We all found suitable items. The women ordered a mimosa flight and enjoyed it to the end. The food came out quick and hot. Everyone finished their plate no problem. Happy hour here starts from 2-5 with entertainment. Definitely work the visit.

A great place for a meal! The food was great. We had the pork and grilled cheese and crab sandwiches. Definitely try the grilled cheese! Plenty of shops to explore after your meal. Update: came back a second time for breakfast. Food is still super delicious! Definitely go for breakfast as well!

Last night we enjoyed another outstanding dinner at Matteo’s in Wailea! This place never disappoints. The service from Suki was excellent. He was warm and attentive. I began with my favorite blood orange Italian soda and Suki recommended to add fresh mint, which was a delightful touch. We always start with our favorite meatball appetizer, it’s the perfect way to begin the meal. The Cesar salad was fresh and full of flavor. Chicken parm is our go-to entrée, and we love that you can swap out the pasta to suit your taste (a small detail that makes a big difference!). We also ordered our other favorite dish, the baked lasagna. Warning, this dish comes out piping hot and packed with rich, comforting flavors, it’s definitely a dish to enjoy at a mindful pace. Consistently delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere make Matteo’s a favorite we return to again and again!

Came to make a visit to Matteo Osterio after seeing a clip of Guy Fieri eating here. Ordered Fettuccine frutti di mare squid ink pasta with crab, clams, shrimp, with tomato, garlic, white wine, lobster veloute sauce. Ordered Bolognese which is made with tagliatelle pasta with maui co beef and Italian sausage with tomato and Parmigiano-Reggiano. The fettucine frutti di mare and the bolognese were probably some of the best I have ever had. I know they are known for the Bolognese and lasagna but I highly recommend trying the fettucine frutti di mare if you make a visit here. Also ordered the tiramisu for dessert. The mascarpone cream was a little too sweet for my liking but overall it was a great and to a phenomenal dinner. Reservations are highly recommended. Parking is free and adequate spots located in plaza parking lot.

Brought the whole family out for disappointing, bland pasta. We tried the squid ink pasta, bolognese, and the chicken parm, but the best tasting entree was butter noodles… This was overpriced and a major misstep during our Maui vacation. The chicken was overcooked. The seafood was under-seasoned. The appetizers were fine, but not exceptional. The wait staff and venue are lovely. We just didn’t enjoy any of the food.

This place is a gem! The food was wonderful and if you’re gluten free they offer pasta options. We went on a girls trip and were all impressed! The eggplant appetizer was to die for but everything was soooo good. I am a foodie and I highly recommend!

We had the chance to visit Matteo’s while visiting Maui and it was by far our favorite restaurant of our trip! They have authentic Italian cuisine with a great variety of dishes ranging from pastas to seafood to chicken entrees. They are very celiac aware and offer great gluten free options including gluten free bread and most of their dishes can be made gluten free. Service was great and food came out very fast and was delicious. They have a wonderful wine selection as well! Beautiful atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor dining areas. Definitely recommended this place!

Wonderful Italian...my favorite restaurant on Maui. Expresso Short Ribs melt in your mouth! Service top notch. Worth the cost. Butternut Sage Butter Ravioli my sister's favorite.

Oh, how the years keep piling on. My gang took me out for my birthday dinner here. It was the first time for all of us and definitely won't be our last. LOCATION: They're within the Wailea Town Center, a small strip mall located behind the new Residence Inn Marriott. Parking at night was plentiful due to the other businesses being closed. ATMOSPHERE: They've done a great job with transforming the space into a very warm, inviting and chic eatery. Seating is a mix of in and out, with a small bar, all-glass wine "cellar" and open-view kitchen. MENU: Italian fare including apps, salads, pastas, pizzas, fish, steak, kids menu, happy hour. BEVERAGE: Sicilian Rose This Ketel One martini included prosecco which gave it a nice fizz and sweetened with a white peach nectar. Absolutely delish. So much so, I had four of them!? Or was it five? I wasn't driving so I didn't care, lol! FOOD: House Bread My dislike for focaccia is slowly fading as I loved this. Instead of butter, it came with a healthier hummus spread. Caesar Salad The chunky-cut Romaine leaves were fresh and well-coated in a creamy-tangy caesar dressing and sprinkled with shaved parmesan. Very good version. Bruschetta Al Tonno Because we were a party of four, we added an additional bruschetta so we could each have one. The raw ahi was utmost fresh and teamed with a mix of fresh tomatoes, salty capers, garlic and basil. Crunchy, savory, sweet; the best of three worlds. Bruschetta slices were a bit small but the wonderful flavors made up for their petiteness. Filetto I was torn between the bolognese pasta and this dish but after seeing pics of this, I was sold due to its mouth-watering dark brown sauce. The tenderloin was amazingly tender. I asked for medium rare but it came out more medium; no biggie. Flavor and moisture were strengths of this dish as it was doused in a savory, dark brown demi mushroom sauce. Total heaven. Stewed cherry tomatoes added a nice acidic balance. I failed to comprehend that the lumpy (a positive to me) mashed potatoes were infused with chunks of gorgonzola cheese, a variety I'm not fond of due to its boldness, and was the only downfall. DESSERT: I was treated to a decadent tiramisu in a cup, topped with a sole birthday candle. So sweet of them! One of my friends opted for the affogato which looked divine and must've been as it was devoured in a snap! SERVICE: Absolutely professional, friendly and took great care of us the entire night. Thank you! OVERALL: I'm being more austere with my five star ratings but Matteo's truly deserves it.

Gather on Maui is the perfect spot for a destination wedding! We had our wedding here on August 1st with the ceremony at the wedding knoll and reception on the lower lawn. Bella was extremely helpful during the planning process and helped us select food/beverage options. The food was amazing and the service was phenomenal. Our guests said it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had. We loved the upside down pineapple cake especially! The setting was so beautiful and the sunset was stunning from the restaurant. It was also conveniently located a few minutes from the beach, where my husband and I were able to capture beautiful sunset photos. The locker rooms were also renovated and pristine with air conditioning. My bridesmaids and I were kept cool before the ceremony. We have already talked about coming back for an anniversary trip next summer! Thank you for hosting us on our special day! 🤍🤍🤍

Great happy hour spot! It’s such a beautiful location and an easy drive from the nearby beaches. Cara was our server and was always checking in. We had a great spot on the patio, there’s lots of umbrellas as well to keep you shaded and the views of the ocean and the golf course are lovely. We ordered the classic margarita and beers, then I had fish and chips and my husband had the smash burger. My fish and chips ($20 at happy hour) came with three pieces of marlin and were very tasty and chips were crispy (in a good way, a few other places on island have served limp sad fries), my husband really enjoyed his burger and was able to upgrade to hurricane fries (our new obsession). I also got a side harvest salad and it was just ok (raw onions on a salad and needed some feta or goat cheese!). Thank you for posting the happy hour menu online, we were very pleased with our decision to come here!

Amazing food! Absolutely the best food we had on the island! We were here for a wedding and the food was preselected. We had steak, chicken, fish, mash, veggies.. all of it was incredible! The view was great and the grounds were well taken care of.

Went for Happy Hour! We were seated outside at a table for three in the full sun when there was definitely better options. It wasn’t busy so I don’t think they had to worry about the tables for 4 being booked up. Server was fairly neutral in his demeanour, not overly friendly but did his job. The drinks at happy hour are fantastic! We had the margarita and a pina colada type cocktail and both were very good. We both ordered the wagu beef burger! My husband thought it wasn’t any better than MacDonald’s . I enjoyed mine more but for the price of $19 it wasn’t worth price. Fries were fine but none of the meal was that hit! Probably should have sent the fries back! The view and decor is stunning! I don’t think you will find a better setting! We moved to the bar for another drink and to watch the baseball game! Jessie and the other bartender were great! We would definitely return for the happy hour drinks but we didn’t think the food was up to par ! There is better value out there for food !

Really nice place with beautiful views! I enjoyed my time here. Expect to spend $100+, it’s on the expensive side. The service was just short of 5 stars. I recommend the Mai tai drink it was really nice!

Gather is the best after we disappointed with others 3 popular restaurant in the area. Delicious Food, Great Service and Spectacular View. We were there for the first time and try the HH. Don't miss delicious Ahi tuna nacho!! Jay was very nice and great service. Richard the manager and the food runner also impressed us. We Will be Back again and RECOMMEND to Everyone!!!!

Amazing food and views. Had the three fish plates in the menu, all delicious. When you compare prices on the island, this is not a lot for the quality of food, service and ambiance you are getting. Would definitely go back.

Every time I visit Paia, I make a point to stop by Mana Foods. They have the best selection of holistic foods. I can always trust the products they carry are natural. The pricing is fair considering what other health foods stores charge these days. The coffee bar at the front to has great drinks.

The store has a cozy, welcoming vibe that sets it apart from larger chains, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable for Maui. Their bakery and deli section is a real treat, offering fresh, delicious options. However, parking can be challenging, so plan accordingly. Despite this, Mana Foods has quickly become a favorite for its snacks, drinks and dedication to quality, making it a must-visit for both locals and visitors seeking healthy, flavorful groceries.

For fresh vegetables and eggs mana foods is the best. I never miss a visit there for those items,bread is fine too but for my primary supplements I can’t find better. It’s also so good to get a coffee to go there which is quite affordable.

Top notch, they had everything we were looking for to make a coconut based upside down pineapple cake. Plus stellar hot foods, and good fruits and vegetables. Small store that packs a punch, no punch intended.

My husband and I spent a week in Paia and ate many of our meals from Mana- their hot bar had a wide variety of entrees and salads- all prepared fresh daily with organic foods. It was certainly nice to be able to eat healthy while still enjoying the beauty of the island of Maui.

A full grocery store with just about everything you need. Kind and helpful staff.

An alternative to whole foods in Maui that's what I would call it. Fresh food and salads to go in boxes, huge selection of organic selections like jams and chocolates. The fruits and vegetables are sourced locally and have distinct taste of Hawaii. I took my breakfast in boxes which was healthy and delicious. Also the leeches and mangoes were truly delicious.

View and setting was amazing. Service was spotty. Asked for water a few times before getting it. Food was good. Tempura snapper was incredible. I would not get the baked Hawaiian next time. Unlike baked Alaska, the different components of the dessert don't really go well together.

Honestly, we were very surprised by how reasonable this restaurant was for breakfast. We tried to get into another local business but couldn't find parking. Cane and Canoe was right down the road and had plenty of room, complimentary valet parking, and a gorgeous view. It is tricky to find because it's inside the Montage Kapalua Bay resort on their lower level. You'll see signs for "reservations required" but that only applies to dinner service. We were seated right away without delay when we visited for breakfast and only a few tables were occupied when we arrived. It did slowly fill up though as we enjoyed our stay. The food was delicious. You won't be disappointed. Our server was nice enough but at one point all of the staff disappeared for quite a while and it was noticeable. It felt strange for a few moment but when they returned everything was back to normal. Overall a wonderful experience.

Great upscale restaurant in the Montage. Amazing dinner seat views of the ocean and back of the resort. Worth visiting for dinner if you are not staying on site. Great coastline walk from the Kapalua resorts

Gorgeous resteraunt that has indoor and outdoor at the same time. Fantastic service. The scallop on marscapone corn puree was pure bliss. The sweet corn lobster agnoletti was delectable. The filet mignon might have been the best I've had. The crust was amazing and cooked perfect. 48 hour wagyu short rib was packed with flavor and tender. Cocktails on point and the nice birthday dessert was rich and decadent. Worth the trip. Going back for sure.

Had an amazing breakfast here. We have eaten all over the world and this was hands down the best egg free waffle I’ve ever eaten. It was flaky crispy and tasty, not the dense dry waffle normally get when vegan. Literally the best ever. Chef Men is amazing. Our avacado toast was equally amazing, modified for our special diet. Thanks Chef and staff for a great breakfast. Btw, the fruit plate is amazing.

This restaurant turned out to be the culinary highlight of our anniversary trip to Maui. The service, food, and atmosphere were all at the highest level of fine-dining excellence. We were greeted warmly at the reception and, once seated, received outstanding service. The welcome taro bread bites with olive oil, butter, and honey set a perfect tone. Our starters — Ahi poke and octopus — were cooked to perfection, tender and bursting with flavor. For the mains, we had the chicken and the catch of the day — snapper. Both dishes impressed us with their complex textures and beautifully layered flavors, exceeding our expectations. Dessert was a delightful finish: coconut and pineapple creations that were simply amazing. It was pricey, but absolutely worth every dollar.

Simply wow! 1. Our waiter was amazing and genuinely engaged in conversation. His recommendations were spot on. 2. The Cesar Salad was in the top 3 best my wife & I have ever had. 3. Our main course meals were devine; fresh fish of the day and wagu short ribs.

You’re never a stranger once! Stumbled upon this awesome place on accident after a disappointing visit to another reservation and we were hooked the first night! Dominic is awesome! As fellow bartenders who have quite a bit of experience in this industry, we were very impressed! He really made the experience for us (enough to go back every night for the remainder of his shifts) and also made some delicious drinks! We also loved the sesame crusted tuna, all of their food was delicious. Mahalo for the amazing hospitality!!

ATMOSPHERE: P&C is located in the Shops At Wailea in a former sushi restaurant. The look is city eatery; a long dining room with high ceilings, big bar, regular tables & high tops, a second level loft with additional seating or for private parties, and a few outdoor seats in the back of the restaurant but with no view. PARKING: Free. MENU: Craft cocktails, Maui Brewing Company beer, salads, American apps, burgers, sliders, sandwiches, chicken/pork/meat/seafood entrees. FOOD: Garlic Parmesan Fries The hand-cut fries were thin like potato sticks, piled high and dusted with finely shaved parmesan, lots of minced garlic and parsley. It was big enough for the four of us to share. Great flavor. Deviled Eggs The presentation looked a little messy on the plate but tasted really good as they did a twist to the traditional recipe with the addition of a bearnaise sauce poured over the four halves. A little parmesan cheese and bacon bits finished the dish with fresh spinach to the side. Fried Chicken Wings I'll never understand why chicken wings are so pricey. Here, you get 7 wingettes and drummettes for a whopping $22. Was it worth the price? Yes, only because of the amazing flavor! Despite the description stating vinegar, my part Filipino friends insisted they could taste patis (fish sauce). Turns out they were right as we chatted with the chef towards the end of the night. It was a bit spicy, about a 3 on a 5 heat scale, but so delish. Highly recommended for the wing fan. SERVICE: It's a seat yourself kind of place, so I don't think reservations are taken. We were greeted by several staff members as we walked in, and scored a high top table at 7pm on a Friday night. We were given menus within 5 minutes, with our server appearing soon after. She was pretty much on top of everything, knowledgeable, and did a good job checking on us. OVERALL: Small but nice menu, great flavors, nice ambiance. A definite return.

Near the end of our little getaway I was feeling an itch for a pint of Guinness. Didn’t think a brilliant pint was going to be found in Maui but I did a little search anyway and found The Pint & Cork on a Guinness forum. So happy I came in for a visit. The pint was truly wonderful, really well poured for American standard. Really smooth, not overly cold, near 0 bitter factor. Yum yum. Aside from the pints the people here really make this place shine. Our bartender was Dominic, he was absolutely lovely to talk to, wish I had more time, would’ve been awesome to have an even longer chat. He introduced us to Preston whom grew up near where we currently live and that was a true mind blowing moment. This world is much smaller than we anticipate hahaha. My wife has never liked the idea of sitting at the bar but Dominic helped changer her perspective on that with such great service and chat. We shared a burger as well, very tasty but was an after thought compared to the service and pints. Planning to make a few more visits during our next visit. Cheers!

Great dinner spot and worth a visit after an evening of shopping in the mall or a beach day in Wailea. Had the tuna-curry and fish and chips and they don't disappoint! Lots of flavors. Good atmosphere. Would prefer inside. Special thanks to Aaron for the customer service.

Came in for a late afternoon dessert and drinks. Desserts were delicious. Drinks as well. Did have deviled eggs and those were interesting, in a very good way. Caught a photo of the last one ;-)

Having tried all the Mai Tais in the neighbourhood, this place has the best (who would expect that of an Irish theme pub?). If you like Mai Tais made in the Trader Vic style, you'll like their take on it. The people complaining here about the Mai Tais are probably the people who put pineapple juice and Malibu Rum in theirs like at the nearby hotels (make it how you like it, thats fine, there are no laws on this). But these are more true to the Trader Vic style, and they are a great take on it.

This place was great! It was super simple and the food was really good! We went for happy hour and the happy hour menu was perfect! We had the cheeseburger sliders, the Mac and cheese, garlic parm fries, and deviled eggs. I would order everything again! Our waitress was so nice, the drinks hit the spot, and the atmosphere was very lowkey! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area!

Had the fresh catch of the day fish sandwich, it was absolutely incredible! Also, the purple rain adult beverage was delicious and came in a really cute tiki cup! Sitting outside right by the water it was Soo good! Definitely will go there again when I'm back on Maui!

Was recommended after our helicopter tours. Stop at the Maui Ocean Center. It is attached to the aquarium. Ordered rhe Canada's (Cathch of the day) which was Onaga (snapper) with shrimp and taro potatoes. It was amazing. We also ordered the tempura lobster tail. Different but still excellent. All the food was cooked to perfection! I'm not a shrimp fan but these were cooked perfectly! Our server Caysha was extremely nice and helpful. Food came out quick. It is outdoor seating so you have to deal with flies and birds and an occasional chicken but it did not take away from the experience. Decently priced for the quality of the food. We really enjoyed everything about this place! Highly recommended for service, taste, and view!

Food service and atmosphere was excellent, was a bit on the warm side since the restaurant is outdoors. The fish and chips were excellent and highly recommend.

The view was incredible and the menu offers a wide variety of plates. I ordered the poke bowl on the waitress’s recommendation. The bowl arrived and was a beautiful thing to behold. I picked up a fork and poked it into a square piece of tender fish covered in a spicy sauce. Then I made the mistake and put the bite in my mouth...now and forever more I will be seeking to repeat that experience. The bite was so beautiful, so subtle, so sublime, if it was my last meal; that would have been better….the taste was such perfection that I literally cried. I have never yet in all my sixty years experienced such an emotional reaction to a bite of food, but before that bite I had never known food could be such an orgasmic experience. The curried peas and the six minute egg….the beautiful and perfectly dressed salad…the sticky rice…all of it….a food-gasm I had never imagined possible. The bowl was $30…who could pontificate that such an experience would cost so little. It stopped all conversation and each person at the table focused on the bowl or plate of pleasure before them. They had different things. None of us shared bites of dinner as we devoured in a blessed ritual the wonder before us. Run, don’t walk. You don’t want to live another day without experiencing this food. Bowing down to the chef and the magic hands that put this together for us.

I had the Friday special with pork and Auahi so good my wife had the plantation burger.

The food was good, and the view was great. The staff was friendly. What surprised me the most, and why I can't give it five stars, is the lack of services for kids. They have a high chair, but that's about all. There are no special water cups with lids and straws for children, and nothing to keep them occupied while we wait for food. I would expect more from a restaurant in an aquarium where the target audience is families with kids.

What a disappointment. Someone at our hotel highly recommended it. My husband liked his fish and chips. I ordered the fish taco special, which the waitress said was mahi mahi. Took one bite and the fish was raw inside. Finally flagged down the waitress, who apologized and brought it to the kitchen. Then she returned and said the kitchen ran out of mahi so they gave me ahi instead. Hmm, not feeling very trusting now so I ordered the veg burger instead. It’s listed on the menu as being “served with coconut luau taro sauce. This secret, signature sauce combines the sweetness of coconut & the flavor of rich taro.” I get the burger after my husband has finished and it’s just the burger with lettuce, tomato and avocado. Dry bun. No sauce. I asked the waitress and she said it doesn’t come with sauce. Whatever. I ate and we left. Should have gone to the pizza place in the little shopping strip next door.

The very very slow service was all forgiven by the most delicious food. Chicken with garlic confit and mushroom sauce and the veggie crepe entrees were super delicious and well executed. The chicken was served in shreds and was succulent, moist and tasty. The crepe looked like a dark flour was used, and was hot and a tiny bit crispy. However, the most epic thing I ate there was the chocolate mousse. Hands down, one of the best, if not the best, mousess I've ever had! All in all, it was a most delicious meal! I have a definite yearn to return to La Provence in Kula.

Pastries were good but the cashier was not friendly at all. It’s all bad energy. You can tell she doesn’t want to be there. I spent $53 for 8 pastries so I asked her to put it in the box, she did but she charged me $5 for the box. After spending $53 for the pastries I didn’t feel like paying $5 for the box. I guess it’s okay if they tell you or at least “BE NICE, BE FRIENDLY, BE CONSIDERATE to the customers or at least smile and say thank you. Last thing, I regret TIPPING her.

On my first visit to this little bakery I wanted to try everything!! My bf and I thoroughly enjoyed a gorgeously crafted croissant and a perfectly baked mango scone. This place is a gem and they sell out early! Sweet and savory pastries as well as bread. Chill vibe, lovely folks, and of course a beautiful location. Keep them in business!!

we planned to have breakfast here on saturday morning but we reached too early. they start serving breakfast at 10 am so we have the pastries. the cheese pie is amazing. it is soft and the cheese melt in the mouth. the sweet bakery is good but too sweet for my indonesian tongue. their guava juice is must try.

We are locals that decided to stop in at la Provence for breakfast /early lunch. My peach almond pastry was hard to cut even using a knife. Maybe old? Idk, but the coffee was good. The woman at the counter was rather demonstrative of what the French call Ennui / Boredom or perhaps tired & in need of her own Java Jolt. Overall I’d say missable. Oh but the outdoor seating was nice:)

Cute little bakery upcountry, so chill. Pastry and crepes are amazing

Genuine French food prepared by a perfectionist genuine French chef. Sunday Breakfast outside overlooking South Central Maui with a view of the Pacific Ocean and Mauna Kahalawai (West Maui mountains.) The best eggs Benedict I have had. The savory crepes were also excellent. Family run, small restaurant. I would highly recommend.

Yum! We definitely enjoyed our dinner without breaking the breaking the break as much as we could at other places and not sacrificing quality to go somewhere cheaper. Highly recommend the spicy garlic edamame, hamachi jalapeño, big eye with kizami wasabi, umi roll, crunchy tiger roll, Komi Mai roll, and if they have the special with the oysters that start with si- definitely get those. Don’t bother with the oyster shooters or handrolls because we wanted something tiny after everything else and they weren’t as impressive.

Been coming here since back in the day when Andy owned it… back when it was more local secret than local Kihei hot spot. Fast forward to now… still my go-to for sushi and Korean BBQ on Maui. Nothing else comes close. Every plate… dialed. Every bite… worth the drive, even if you’re staying on the complete other side of the island. The fish? Fresh in a way that makes you forget every “fresh” claim you’ve ever heard… The Korean BBQ? Layers of flavor that feel like they’ve been passed down for generations. And the execution… flawless. From the service to the timing to the way each dish lands on the table like it’s meant to be there. You don’t just eat here… you get reminded what great actually tastes like. Isana isn’t trying to please everyone… they’re here to set the standard. And for me, they’ve done it every single time.

We decided to try this restaurant following the reviews.Did not reserve but we were seated quickly by the window where we could see the mountains and end of the sunset . Service was good , we had big eye tuna sashimi , nigiri combo & spider , hamachi rolls . Everything was good but we tought it was pricey for what we ordered and had as good sushi& sashimi in other restaurant in Maui.

We went for my birthday and had a wonderful time. Dinner was great, we shared a soft shell crab roll, fried rice and pork ramen. We had a reservation so that’s why we didn’t have to wait.

An Unforgettable Dinner That Started with Forgotten Photos! We were so engrossed in the incredibly delicious food that we completely forgot to photograph anything... until dessert arrived! And what a dessert it was! Everything was superb, but the crème brûlée was, without exaggeration, the best I've ever tasted.

They have really great food! While staying in Maui ate here twice, their Ube Creme Brulee is excellent!! See attached pic of some of the food.

Would return for delicious fresh sashimi in casual atmosphere! Our server Ben was very friendly and helpful. We had the fresh bluefin sashimi special (not pictured) which was 10/10. Drinks were creative and tasty. Ube crème brûlée is a must! Fairly priced. Thanks!

What a perfect stop on our way back from the Haleakala Summit. This restaurant has amazing service, friendly and attentive! Our coffee was never empty, and our meal came out hot. The was tasty but, the atmosphere of this restaurant is absolutely the best.

Enjoyed brunch and coffee here at a quiet Maui town, Makawao. Wait staff, mainly cashier there was friendly even my party took bit of long time to decide and order food. All menu items are on a wall, difficult to explore and decide at first. Like all other Hawaiian restaurants, the price tag does not always justify the quality and content of foods. But here at Freahies, most of omelets and drinks my family ordered were decent and nicely presented. Outside courtyard area next to big trees was perfect for enjoying Hawaiian breeze.

The food was great and came out quickly.. And that’s what we came for.. so all worth it! Service.. meh.. wouldn’t say anyone was hospitable.. The only thing we heard was.. are you ready to order? (Restaurant Tip) I would always start with a welcome in at least.. It’s just too easy to not greet people on vacation. They do ask for a tip when you pay, but you will not get any service beyond the counter.. No coffee or tea refills. Atmosphere.. The greeting set the tone, tables were dirty, ppl were just standing around waiting to order while others held tables..

This place is a must for breakfast if visiting the cute little paniolo town of Makawao. My husband is a huge breakfast burrito guy and loved the one here with the vegan chorizo.

Phenomenal food. Had to keep going back multiple times and it was all delicious. Food comes out quicker than expected and great atmosphere to dine in.

Just as the name suggests, the place serves things fresh! The combination of flavors in the coconut curry I got was like going through a gastronomy journey, could taste it all! Definitely would recommend. Staff is nice and friendly and definitely seems like a spot where locals like to hang out.

Yum! We got the veggie burger, makawao melt and veggie chili. My boys 17 & 11 both lived everything too. Great find 💖

We booked the 5 th night free mostly because we were looking for a certain flight home that wasn’t available after 4 nights. The suite arrangement is very well appointed. The staff all were so very friendly and the grounds gorgeous. Somehow this hotel has presented luxury without being stuffy. It welcomed families and couples alike and provided specific spots for both to enjoy the amenities. The food variety and hours were accommodating for a variety of tastes.( It was much better than a resort on Kauai that was 3x the price.) On top of that, the location allowed for visiting restaurants at other resorts or the malls easily accessible by using the free shuttle service. They’ve thought of everything! Two complaints- and these are picky- I don’t like the in-room coffee pot and those darn roosters crow 18 hrs a day!

If you’re looking for the ultimate relaxing getaway in Maui, look no further than the Fairmont Kea Lani. This resort truly delivers the best of both worlds, family-friendly comfort with a sophisticated, adult-minded design that makes everyone feel at ease. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the attention to detail — the lush grounds, koi ponds, multiple pools, and soothing water features create a peaceful, tropical atmosphere. The resort has four or five excellent restaurants on-site, each offering something unique, and the sunsets are absolutely breathtaking from anywhere on the property. Every suite faces the ocean, so you’re guaranteed a beautiful beach view no matter where you stay. The rooms are spacious, luxurious, and thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and convenience. There’s even a cultural center, hot tubs, and a wonderful staff who go out of their way to make your stay unforgettable. One of my favorite touches is the complimentary shuttle service — it takes you to nearby hotels, tours, and local attractions, so exploring the island is effortless. If you rent a car, there’s plenty of parking too. And here’s a fun Maui twist — you can skip the watch! Four friendly pet roosters roam the property, crowing on schedule to let you know it’s time to grab another Mai Tai or catch that perfect sunset. Bottom line: Fairmont Kea Lani is paradise perfected — peaceful, elegant, and packed with thoughtful touches that make it one of the best resorts on the island. 🌺

After (3) years of not coming visiting Maui because of the sadness of the Lahaina Fires, we returned to the Amazing Beautiful Fairmont Kea Lani Maui this September We were greeted with Aloha by the valet staff and the Best Front End Staff in the hotel business!!! We were warmly hugged by Front End associates: Ronnie, Luz, Cole and Tammi and many others who remembered us by name. And we meet the relatively new front end manager Nicola who was amazing!! We loved the fully remolded Lobby / atrium with its beautiful arcs and views of the pacific ocean We got great advice from the concierge desk about new restaurants and driving tips from Luke and Jennifer and others. We were so overwhelmed by the beauty of newly remodeled rooms and the Ocean Front View that we were assigned to. There is no other pool staff any better than the Kea Lani's lead by its manager Alan and his staff . I cant say enough about Alan for the way he makes everyone feel like family. I had another great pool side massage by Joyce, who I have seen many times in prior visits, The morning breakfasts were always specially served with an aloha smile by Amime and supervised by Barry and Ian. My Birthday Dinner at Nicks was delicious with great service and incredible ocean views of the sunset . Most of the time on the resort we spent at the adult pool meeting folks from all over the country and the world. They all felt the same way we did about this great vacation spot in Maui! We even meet friends who purchased us a couple of pineapple filled drinks which we drank at the pool. We did spend some time on the walking path and in the blue ocean waters as well. I had to call out some of these special folks by name, because they all made our vacation special but the entire staff also give you the feeling that you are ohana Warmest Aloha Ron and Jill Kalbrosky

All the workers there made us feel real special, like we were truly family and it didnt feel like superficial customer service at any time. Ronnie from Guest Service from the beginning was warm and gave us so much information and a walk through the suite. He was like an older brother. In Room Dining Ronely and Bethany celebrated our honeymoon with some local snacks with our order. We bonded with Mark in Makana Market + Cafe, who always had a genuine smile when we walked in. Uncle Saul and Ralph who took us out on the Outrigger we bonded as we talked about Paddling in Kona and brought us back to our roots. Missy in concierge was super accommodating, suggesting amazing things to do on our honeymoon, and booked our Outrigger with the uncles. Brodie with the beach rentals would have been accommodating with his drone if we actually showed up Saturday Morning. Please tell him sorry and thank you for the offer, we slept in. Jasper, who was extremely busy, still gave some good recommendations even though he was meeting with clients. Venus in the Kea Lani breakfast buffet sincerely made us feel special, even getting us mimosa for our first meal. When I showed up alone the second time, Trudy felt like a favorite aunty I haven't seen in a while, checking in on me. Wonderful time, our honeymoon felt exceptional thanks to everyone listed above, and everyone else who we’ve come across while on property. Will love to return in the future.

We had the pleasure of spending the weekend at the Kealani resort with many of our family. It was a reunion of sorts and we had an absolutely wonderful time. The staff are some of the most friendly and helpful and genuinely carry the aloha spirit. I specially remember Mayleen at the cafe and Kailee at the pool along will many many others (shout out to the valet guys as well as Ronnie from the front desk!) - this is our favorite resort on Maui and unlike many of the mega resorts, this one has maintained a sense of relaxed luxury that is family friendly while also peaceful. It’s not so big that you feel lost on the property and the beach in front of the hotel is amazing. 10/10 and hope to do it again!

Everything about our stay was incredible. From the friendly check in process with Cole, our beautiful upgraded room with a garden area, our restaurant experience at Pilina, soaking in the hot tub and pool, the buffet breakfast at Kea Lani restaurant, and the late check out accommodations by Erica. The late check out really helped us enjoy our last day in Maui. My boyfriend and I were just amazed every step of the way. We have both stayed at a lot of hotel properties and the Fairmont Kea Lani has to be the best! Every person we interacted with was friendly and personable. We also loved the texting feature for requests. It made communicating with the different departments easy and convenient. We didn’t want to leave because we loved every aspect of the hotel.

My husband and I have stayed in Maui over 10 times and the Fairmont has the best location in all of Wailea! We stayed at many other Fairmonts all over the world, and this one lives up to the Fairmont name. The rooms are top-tier; each room is a suite and has plenty of space. Everything has been remodeled/updated, and you feel like you are in a brand new resort. They fill the bathrooms with the Fairmont signature Rose scent from Le Labo, which makes the stay feel that much more lux. The amenities were very nice. More importantly, we had no issues finding a beach/pool chair in the middle of the day, unlike other nearby resorts, where you have to get up early to save a chair for the day. Having the option to get a chair and umbrella on the beach was amazing. The reusable Soma water bottles were also a great touch, and we continue to reuse them after returning home. Overall, the resort was quiet and relaxing. The architecture made us feel like we were in a White Lotus set. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Fairmont Kea Lani.

First there were 2, then 3 more and finally 2 unexpected people at our table and the service staff was excellent, taking care of our orders expeditiously and precisely! Great food, we were there for happy hour and to listen to a local musician playing in the center of the shops. Ceviche, crab cake, chicken pizza, eggplant parmigiana and fish and chips along with wine and gin, perfect from beginning to end. The only problem was the parking, very full and long wait to leave after the concert, we should have been there at 4:30 instead of 5pm! If we didn’t get a validation from Longhi’s, the parking would have cost a pricey $12.

We came here for dinner located at the Shops of Wailea. The service a really good. The server did an excellent job. unfortunately the food was not equal. The portions were really small. The crab cake and salad were tiny (Look at the pictures). The salad barely had anything in it. It was a pretty sad salad. The ribs were very under seasoned and bland. They were well cooked just had no flavour at all. The lobster cannelloni was probably the best dish out of everything. We had a party of 4 adults and 4 kids. The kids did enjoy their meals from the kids menu. They had the mac and cheese. Which is always a hit with my kids no matter what. Overall based off the price, portions, and taste we would not come back here. I would not recommend eating here. There are better restaurants in the area.

We had the best time there tonight. Our server was name was Sparkle, and she took really good care of us. We tried a few apps and had 2 different desserts. We love the artichoke, fish and chips, and the Mac nut pie. So very good. Excellent service.

bright lively spot. 5 star bar & bartender. Great homemade bread. Unbelievable desserts. Had shrimp & linguine. Shrimp was huge, fresh, and tasty. Pasta tasted homemade. Sauce was kinda okay. Better sauce and we go up a star.

Our waiter was excellent. We ate dinner here but apparently their breakfasts are excellent. We walked over from the Wailea Beach Resorts so we didn't have to pay for parking. The calamari appetizer was nothing to write home about. The rigatoni Bolognese was great. Chicken Mediterranean was just okay. Skipped dessert and went to the ice cream place in the mall a few doors down

The food was good, I loved my Papaya plate. My eggs woth fish were ok, my wife had some pancakes with macadamia nuts and they were amazing. My friends had some poached eggs and they were really good as well. The service was good but our waiter wasn't that nice, we asked for double capuchinos and they tasted like they had a single shot (more like milk with a splash of coffee), when we mentioned that to the waiter she didn't offer an extra shot or to change the coffee, she just mentioned we got what we asked for. In general the place is good.

Great brunch. I had the blueberry and ricotta stuffed buttermilk pancakes with side of bacon and my husband had the build your own omelet. The pancakes were delicious. Lovely zing of lemon zest in the ricotta was a nice surprise as it wasn’t mentioned in the menu description. Bacon was thick sliced, just crispy enough and full of smokey flavor. My husband thought the omelet was okay— he wasn’t a fan of the sausage they used. The service was VERY friendly but overwhelmed and under staffed. Being the day after Thanksgiving you’d think they would have been better staffed for a busy day. We waited about 20 minutes to give our order, another 20 to receive the food and, after our plates were clearly done and nearly clean, yet another 10 minutes to receive our check. I did think it odd that the fire alarm went off while we were dining, yet no one moved and no management gave instruction as to what we should do. I finally asked a gentleman clearing tables if we needed to leave and he simply said it’s “all good— don’t worry about it.” Overall, the atmosphere is excellent, food was tasty, and staff friendly. This is certainly a place I would come back to again— I think they may have just been having an “off” morning. Our food cost for two was $50 with tip. We did not order any beverages.

Kihei Fish House by Maui Grill: Fresh Flavors, Worth the Wait! Kihei Fish House by Maui Grill is a highly recommended spot! Their coconut shrimp are delicious, and the grilled mahi-mahi with special sauce is so yummy. Every plate comes with tasty rice, sweet potato salad, and green salad. All the meals are consistently good! While the waiting time can be a bit long, the shaded outdoor seating with 6 long tables makes it comfortable. Definitely check this place out for fantastic seafood.

Best food we had on the island. Fresh seafood. The sauce they make for tacos was amazing. Wish we found it sooner on our trip so we could have had it more than just the last day.

Fantastic food!!! Would come here every day, but discovered on last day of our trip. We took garlic butter shrimps, tuna tacos ant grilled tuna plate. FANTASTIC!!!!

The portions on the plates are worth every penny! Never had purple potato salad but it was delicious and the green salad seems to have a mango base dressing which was key to it. The scallops made to perfection! Not chewy!

Let me tell you.. Absolutely amazing Mahi Mahi plate.. outside, evening.. the wait was worth it. Wife got the Butter Garlic Shrimp.. Amazing!! Also the Lilikoi Drink was so refreshing… MUST VISIT in Kihei, Maui!!

Next time I’m in Maui I will come back here just for the grilled mahi tacos 10/10. Fried coconut shrimp were good too 7.5/10.

Fantastic calamari and fish! The calamari came with yummy purple yam and salad. The purple yam is grown in Hawaii, the salad had a great mango sauce. Both dishes were amazing! Great customer service too today. I definitely recommend this food truck, they have their own little picnic tables you can eat at as well. Additionally, it’s across from Kalama park, if you want to eat right by the ocean.

Perfect place to enjoy Thanksgiving. E was a little bummed that they had a special menu because she was looking forward to having Escargot, but she kinda got over it with her meal. We started with the chilled cucumber soup with goat cheese and frozen tomato puree which was something we enjoyed but probably wouldn't think to order. It definitely cooled us down. E got the duck with cannellini beans with ham which she ate to the bone, grandpa had the pink snapper, which he said was a bland fish, however he liked how the capers added such beautiful flavor with the spinach and the rest of his dish, and I had the beef filet which was more medium then medium rare, but was good because of how it was sauced and the sweet potato mash was a winner, so much so that E ate half of it and then asked is this sweet potato? Normally she avoids sweet potatoes at home. And dessert... Creme Caramel and Gateau Chocolate (sp?) were perfect. I loved that the chocolate cake had macadamia nuts in it with the coconut ice cream and raspberry puree. E loved the meringue shavings on her creme Caramel. Patio was nice too...

Can't stop thinking about all the great food we had. It was one of our favorites from our week long stay in Maui. The Escargot, Catch of the Day, and the Dusty Road Dessert was some of the best food we ever had. Have to make a reservation and is very limited so reserve in advance!

Amazing food here. They're booked out for months but we were able to grab a table due to a last minute cancellation. Can't believe how lucky we were!

Set in the romantic Plantation Inn in Lahaina that gives a classic colonial atmosphere to your evening meal. The balcony is a perfect place to watch the sun set with that special person in your life. Gerard’s offers up an exquisite selection of fresh seafood dishes such as classic like escargot. You’ll be tempted to dip the fresh bread in all the rich sauces. All of the dishes are easy to wash down with a beautiful rose wine from Provence. No French meal is complete without trying their amazing desserts such as the profiteroles!

Fantastic, authentic French food right on the shore in Lahaina. About a block off of Front Street. The cuisine is very good, service was impeccable and the setting beautiful. One of the highlights of my meal was the French Onion Soup.

Incredibly delicious. I appreciated everything about this restaurant. We wanted to eat quality food vs scenery. Still, this was a romantic setting with the most exquisite food. We had the mushroom pastry, French onion soup, fresh catch, and chicken cordon bleu, dessert and wine. We will be going back even though we are on a short trip, yes it was that good!

food was delicious, well after the weird cheese ball .... it was loud like a pig sty at feeding time.....waiter forgot about kids drinks and dessert....after pouring the first glass of wine for the 4 adults, we didnt see him again and was left pouring and waiting our own table.....this would be ok at low priced places....but when your coughing up 125 bucks per person (with limited menu) you expect service of which there was none. because we where 6 they auto added 20% tip, i think 10% is more appropriate for the service received , the waiter did less than minimal, and instead of feeling like a nice relaxed dinner, where you can talk to each other, we where left yelling across the table cause they couldnt keep the noise levels down from the two drunk tables behind us.....food was good, the tartar and ahi tasted great, and the beef was ultra tender but taste less....total bill for 6 ppl was $750 before tips....would have gladly payed if the service matched and it was an exceptional experience....but no. this felt like a 400-500 would be more appropriate....ohh i forgot about the kids menu....its not kids friendly at all
