Gannon'sSeared Ahi perfection!!!Originally planned on Haliimaile General Store, but decided against it after considering the ambience and acoustics (better acoustics/ambience - amazing view and sunset). Started with the Crab Fonduta and raw bar Sushi/Sashimi Sampler. Fonduta is always a must. Sampler plate was just "meh". Dinner entrees selected: Scallops (nice sear, risotto cooked perfectly), King Salmon (hearts of palm a nice touch, Mr. asked for a side of Forbidden Rice, which he first became a fan of at Haliimaile), and the Fennel Crusted Ahi (no exaggeration-absolutely the best seared (rare) ahi that I've had ANYWHERE. The fennel is a tasty change from the typical sesame crust that is offered everywhere else. Love the sea salt in the butter served with the bread.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMSpectacular view with fabulous foodThere is a a slogan that says "Go, there's nothing stopping you!" which applies here. The food is top notch and the menu is varied. We had breakfast here one day without reservations and were wowed by the breathtaking views from our table. The food was wonderful. Hubby had steak and eggs and I had banana macadamia nut pancakes. Both were outstanding. We returned for dinner later in week, with reservations, and had almost the same table. Sun was already setting which provided yet another gorgeous scenic view while we dined. I had the seared diver scallops with risotto, while hubby had lobster and steak. Both were divine. Also had the crab tower appetizer and butterscotch pudding dessert. Don't miss this!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMGannon's was recommended toGannon's was recommended to me by a friend, so I was expecting it to be good.

There was essentially no time between courses...which made the meal feel very rushed.4/9/2013 12:00:00 AMToo expensive, may not returnToo expensive, may not return for dinner, possibly for lunch.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMWe met with 4 others, andWe met with 4 others, and had a very nice time.

We thought her restaurant is fantastic!3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have always found Gannon'sWe have always found Gannon's to be a great restaurant, the food, staff and location were all fabulous!3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMEven though we got a breezyEven though we got a breezy evening which required sweaters at the outdoor table, the view was still drop dead beautiful. Garden near at hand, ocean in the distance with Molokini nearby and Kaholwae in the distance. One thing the cloudy evening gave us was a long twilight, which is unusual for over there.
We did drinks, appetizers, salads, and deserts, and were stuffed. Even took some of the salad home. Cocktails were an excellent recipie, gin and lavendar. They had excellent Washington State oysters. I hate getting East Coast seafood in Hawaii. Salads were tasty and good sized. Dessert menu was a little uninspired.
Great time.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMA must place to go on MauiThe food was exceptional. I had the tuna tartar for an appie and the opa special for the main course. Both were fantastic. I can't say enough about the great service. Our waiter was friendly, professional and very efficient. One thing I find all too rare these days is a place with a red wine refrigeration system. It was so nice to have a glass of red wine that was at the proper temperature. The view is wonderful so get there in time to see the sunset. It is well worth the early dinner time. Relax with a cocktail and have dinner at a leisurely pace. Can't recommend this place enough.11/30/2012 12:00:00 AMHad heard whispers that Gannon'sHad heard whispers that Gannon's had gone downhill in the last few years. NOT SO! It's still up in the higher echelon for Maui restaurants, churning out great, carefully and inventively prepared seafood. If you can sit outside, do so (that goes without saying in Hawaii, right?) as the view is fantastic. Some of the best service I've received in Hawaii, thanks to our attentive waiter Timothy. Just a great experience overall.11/26/2012 12:00:00 AM
