   Live music, FANTASTIC food. They offer no drinks except water (but give you the option to buy your own in a nearby market) and unfortunately our server (17), who was a great kid, was highly inexperienced. Overall, I’ll go back to enjoy a nice dinner without hesitation…

   Keoni was our server and was fantastic. Very genuine kid and loves to start conversations. He was a real gem. Food was great and all members of the staff were friendly. Food was reasonably priced for being a quality meal. This is a family run business who puts their heart and soul in their food and service.

   Weirdest, most awkward dining experience Any of our party has ever had. First off, we had had a change of plans and needed to cancel this reservation, but restaurant is closed Sunday and Monday, so we were unable to cancel our reservation with the required 24 hour notice unless being charged $10 per person. Family of 7. So we rearranged our week to avoid losing $70. We were seated outside. Area was a bit sketchy. Our waiter came to our table and immediately told us “this place is byob” even though there were drinks listed ON the menu. We were never for a drink order so we were forced to sit with only water. He walked away to give us a minute to look over the menu. Minutes later, he came back to tell us that the kitchen was way backed up and our food would be delayed, even though we had not yet ordered. We decided to ask about possibly cancelling this reservation since the kitchen was backed up. The manager was shocked that we had been told this, and reassured us the kitchen was in fact NOT backed up. She sent the waiter to our table to take our order. He explained the special as being “ribeye with shrimp.” Two of these meals were purchased, at $42 each. This was attempted to be ordered as medium, however we were told that the kitchen only makes the meat one way and there’s no other options. No sides could be switched or replaced, the meals came only as listed. Some meals came out rather quickly. When the “ribeye” was brought to the table, instantly we knew there was a problem. Two small chunks of oddly colored meat were on top of a small pile of vegetables. The waiter was asked for steak sauce, but he did not know what that was and stated no, they did not have that. He was asked at that point if that was really ribeye. “Yes, it’s just cut up.” During checkout we were told it was in fact FILET, which our table does NOT like. We left the table hungry, paid $165 for our bad meal with terrible service and went to Jack-in-the-box.

   Hungry CoyoteResponded 5 days agoSorry to hear your experience was not to your liking. The menu states, please let us know so we can fix it. Your concerns were not shared, other than the mix up from Filet Mignon and rib eye. We are happy to correct any issues. With Aloha. Thank you for visiting Maui.

   We've been in Hawaii for 10 days and this was by far our most memorable experience. Food was amazing, the front patio was adorable, they complimented our BYOB'd bottle of tequila into beautiful drinks and Debora's live music was truly unforgettable. They even rewarded the kids for good eating with a treasure chest of toys/ treats.

    First time there, but won’t be the last, for sure. Nice hole in the wall kind of place with great food. Enjoyed a very talented musician who was playing guitar and singing. I had the chile verde pork, which was served a little differently than I am used to. They fold the pork into three of their homemade blue corn tortillas, lay them on top of the beans and rice, add their chile verde sauce and some cojita cheese and you have a pretty spectacular dish! My wife had the fish and shrimp special and it was just as good if not better. Add a really nice server and host, it was a winner for sure.

We had brunch and ordered the Chilaquilles and the Tacos Delgados. We met the owners and their Son, who were very friendly and welcoming. We will be going back regularly.

    Amazing food and service. Hungry Coyote deserves recognition as one of Maui’s best restaurants. From the outside driving by it’s tucked in the back of an older strip mall and doesn’t catch your attention, don’t let that fool you, it’s a gem! The food is original, authentic and amazing. The birria taco appetizer is great as well as the guacamole and salsa. The chile verde pork enchiladas with black bean purée and rice were to die for! I’ll be back at least one more time before we leave the island.

    Hungry CoyoteResponded on June 8, 2022You are so kind and we truly appreciate your uplifting comments. Our little family-owned business works so hard to make our guests happy. Your words make it all worthwhile. With Aloha~

    Tasteless burritos containing peas and carrots (looked like from a frozen veg bag). Possibly they are new at the restaurant biz? Not much menu choice.

    Hungry CoyoteResponded on June 8, 2022Spanish rice and Paella recipes call for peas and carrots. Our meats are slow roasted and our sauces made from scratch with island flavor. Chef has been cooking for over 20 years and last week Chef Brian Ingram from the Food Network came in and gave Rave reviews.... so sorry you did not enjoy your burrito. Perhaps enchiladas, taco plates or local fish and Upcountry Kula veggie selection would be more to your liking. Our menu says "if you do not let us know, we cannot fix it" We would have!

Our waiter was hysterical! Just loved him. And the food was delicious! I had the Beef Birria Enchiladas and my husband had the Beef Birria Burrito (which was huge). Both were wonderful! This will be a regular stop for us on future Maui trips!

    Great food in an unlikely strip mall location. The service was good but a bit slow on the night we ate. This restaurant has no liquor license so bring your own beer or wine. Luckily we had a bottle of wine in the car and were provided with a cooler and ice. Overall a good meal.

    Hungry CoyoteResponded on May 11, 2022Thank you! We appreciate serving you. We are a new, small family owned business. We are working on perfecting our service, food and liquor licensing. Until then feel free to bring tequila, as we make fresh tropical mixers to blend. The location is under repair, since Covid shut down operations. Until then we will provide fresh, homemade food, live music, free parking close to Front St ans ALOHA.

Very flavorful. My husband had the ceviche, which can be tricky sometimes. He raves about it! We felt lucky to get a seat at this place with the Aloha spirit so evidently alive and thriving.

    The whole dinner experience was awkward. The place was empty when we got there. The waiter who sat us and took our orders was trying to be funny but wasn’t. He was training a waitress who was very nice, but she came over every time we sipped our waters to fill it back up. The waiter took about 30 minutes to put the order in and apologized for having messed up. The jalapeño cornbread was way overpriced for 4 little bites. It tasted like cornbread with a little hint of spice. I ordered the fish tacos which were 3 little blue tacos with rice and bean mush. The rice was dry and tasted blah. The beans were disgusting and gray. The tacos were ok, but I ended up with a puddle of taco runoff on my plate that made everything soggy. Despite that the fish was dry. We went on Wednesday for free dessert which was a joke. The dessert was a chocolate cake that tasted worse than Betty Crocker with a scoop of mocha ice cream. We couldn’t even finish the free dessert. I don’t know how there are so many good reviews but I would not come back.

    Hungry CoyoteResponded on May 11, 2022The menu says, "If we don't know about it, we cannot fix it." Please let new establishments know at the time of dinning so they can fix any problems. You were asked several times if everything was ok. Everyone, including our teens in training, know to report and immediate fix any issues, but we were not given that opportunity. Our food is made from scratch, so nothing artificial or coloring. Tacos now in holders, because a guest recommended it. Our servers do their best to interact w Aloha!
