Waterfront RestaurantWe had such a wonderful dinnerWe had such a wonderful dinner at the Waterfront last week. It was the most wonderful way to spend our last night in Maui. The food, service, and setting were superb. We will be back on our next trip!5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMIt's always a wonderful experience;It's always a wonderful experience; table-side Caesar salad is the best anywhere.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything Old is New AgainBeen going to Waterfront for years. Last year it was closed because of the move to a new building(about a half mile away). The new restaurant is very nice, high ceilings open and airy. But the food has remained as good as ever. worth the trip for the tableside Cesar Salad, a lost art. So very good. The fish prep options (there are six I think) are still there. We both had the Opakapaka, Bastille style, wow! Just a great dependable friend. The new look with a larger bar area is great. But ensuring the food remains the same is more important. We will go again before our vacation is over!5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWaterfront LunchWe enjoyed a pleasant lunch with our party of 6. Service and food, preparation and ambience all very good. Lunch menu is mostly informal but the dishes were presented with great visual appeal, and tasted even better.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMFirst night on MauiPro's:
Friendly hostess
Love the glass-enclosed presentation kitchen
Great patio table with a view of the harbor
Knowledgeable server
Cocktails were well-made
Sun-dried tomato, kalamata & parmesan bread was tasty
Pork spring rolls were delicious
Both of our steaks were cooked to perfection!
Coconut cream pie was light and very good (some places overdo the coconut)
Con's:
A bit hard to find
Potatoes Dauphinoise were overcooked, especially on the bottom
Limited number of fish selections that night - was hoping to try a species I'd never had before5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMHidden GemAlthough we read several reviews giving the Waterfront restaurant excellent reviews, several people are unaware of this Gem at the Harbor. The food was awesome, service excellent with views of the ocean. Very reasonably priced for the type of food you will receive.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat FishKnown for their fresh fish selection and varied preparations to choose from.

Its new location makes it even better. I would recommend to everyone.4/3/2013 12:00:00 AMA Dinning Gem on MauiThis was our second time at the Waterfront and we had an another outstanding experience. Our waiter, Jeff(who we requested) made our dining experience memorable. Our table had a beautiful view of the harbor and Mt. Haleakala as the sun set. Our meal was excellent (again). We would recommend the restaurant to anyone wanting an exceptional dinning experience.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat fish per my husband.Great fish per my husband. However we went at around 8 and they weren't able to accommodate any vegetarian appetizers as I am vegetarian however my entree was delicious so I was fine! Must visit once while in Maui! If you have special requests call them the day before so they can expect to have something ready!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and excellent service.Great food and excellent service. A real class act.3/28/2013 12:00:00 AMDon't miss the WaterfrontOne of our "must haves" when we visit Maui. Their Caesar salad (prepared table side) is the best I've had anywhere and that is just the beginning. The fish selection is terrific and when you factor in the five different ways each fish dish can be prepared, you have quite a choice. Save room for deserts---they are all prepared in house and will bring you back.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMFrom a Local Girl's Point of ViewBeautiful restaurant...the scenery, the decor the ”glass” kitchen. Waithelp a little slow even though there were only a handful of tables. This is really a sweet spot for lunch - good meeting place between West side and South or Central side. ”Healthy Salad” was great and the crab cake sliders - what a treat! Can't wait to try dinner in the ”new” place. Congratulations on your move & improved location!3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMAll in All a very good spot to eatFish was fresh and well prepared. Vegetables were well done but unfortunately the rice Pilaf was just not good. Wine list was great desert was very good. Service was outstanding and well paced.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful dinner on the wayWonderful dinner on the way to the airport to return home after two weeks in Hawaii! The fish dinners were awesome, created with a variety of combinations. Ample portions presented well.3/12/2013 12:00:00 AMFish was Delish!Everyone loved their fish dishes. Neat how you can pick the fish and then the preparation. Nice being able to sort of 'customize'. Only constructive criticism would be that it took a long time to get seated even though we had a reservation and it wasn't that busy yet because we purposely booked early because we had a kid with us. Other than that, food and everything else was awesome.3/12/2013 12:00:00 AMThe first night we had dinnerThe first night we had dinner at the Waterfront Restaurant, everything was excellent. The food, atmosphere, and fantastic waiter, Gerald, left us wanting to come back again. Our experience the next visit wasn't as pleasant. The food and atmosphere were great, but the waitress was not as professional, friendly or informative.. She never explained the specials, took a long time to come back and see if we'd like anything else, and served coffee in a cup that you could clearly see had spelled coffee all over the outside of it. Very sloppy.
We go to Maui twice a year and will come again hoping that was just an 'off' night.3/11/2013 12:00:00 AM
