    Shout out to Charles. What amazing server. After being in the service industry for years I strive to be like him! Absolutely amazing food. My wife and I had our eye set on some entrees but Charles had convinced us to do the fish entree for two and let me tell you. Best decision we had made on the whole trip. We just finished dinner at Merrimans and I would 100% recommend this place over them. Hands down way better experience, better food and outstanding service. The service at Merrimans did not compare to this place. Charles wanted to have a conversion and enjoy his guest where I feel like not many people see it that way anymore. Shout out Charles and shout out to the chef. You guys killed it and I hope to be back!

    Banyan Tree was a phenomenal experience. The restaurant is tucked back by the pool at the Ritz, so if you’re not staying there, valet at the hotel lobby and ask for help finding it. We had a late dinner our first night of vacation and everything was wonderful. The service was friendly and attentive, there was live music and the food was outstanding. Would definitely dine here again especially for a special occasion

    Very expensive for the ambience, service, and food taste. We’ve been to all 5 star resort restaurants in Maui. This place is one of the most expensive with mediocre food taste. Our waiter was nice but he had to manage too many table for this level of restaurant. Would not recommend this place to any tourist. I tried this place because I stayed at Ritz.

    Banyan Tree at the Ritz in Maui was a splendid dining experience. Our server was exceptional, making us feel welcome from start to finish. We started with the Maui onion appetizer—bursting with flavor and one of the most incredible focaccia breads that I’ve ever had. The lobster gnocchi was rich, delicate, and perfect for sharing. To end, the banana cream pie paired with double espressos was divine. Every course was a hit. Elegant setting, top-tier service, and food that truly wowed. A must-visit if you are in Kapalua.

    Absolutely amazing. A little pricey but worth it when you count the amazing service with the food! The short ribs are absolutely ridiculous!! Highly recommend.
