    Our server Eddie was outstanding! His service was superior as was our entire meal. The crab cakes and sauce were delectable. Next the very fresh salad with local greens and homemade Caesar salad dressing - Yum! My husband. & I both selected fish dishes which were cooked to perfection! Then we shared our favorite dessert on Maui - Hula Pie❣️ So delicious! The beautiful view & live music just made for a perfect last dinner on this trip to Maui! Mahalo 🌺

    We had the best dinner here! The hostesses were so sweet despite, being overwhelmed by people … our waitress was adorable and was constantly bringing our kids refills and the adults new cocktails. Our view was amazing … there was a surprise fireworks show over the water!! The food was the best we’ve had in Maui, especially the filet! This is one of the best spots in Maui for sure.

    Food was below average, our favourite dishes were the coconut shrimp and the hula pie which were fine but nothing special. The ceviche seemed to be fully cooked and had almost no flavour at all, just tomato fish and avocado with a few cold corn chips - not like any ceviche we have ever had before. The lava flow cocktail was wayyy too sweet even with the dark rum float added and we could barely taste any alcohol - we’ve had 3/4 of these while in Hawaii and this was the worst. We waited an additional 20mins to be seated as the table before us hadn’t finished yet and there were 8-10 other tables of people also waiting for their reservation, there was no sign of our waitress for at least another 10 mins once seated.

    Our food was delicious! We arrived at 4:30 pm and the live music was so loud we could not even talk and the waiter had to yell! The live music stopped at 5:00 so it was better. I suggest arriving after the live music if possible.

    We had Craig as our waiter and he was very solicitous and accommodating. The view was amazing. We had two of the specials and they were both perfection. We also had the filet mignon and prime rib and they were delicious as well. Capped off the meal with the hula pie - you can’t go wrong. It was a lovely meal and Craig took excellent care of us!

    Let’s start with fact that they didn’t even say Happy Anniversary even though wrote on reservation that our 27th. My husband loved his encrusted mahi mahi special. His mash potatoes were amazing. I ordered chicken & ribs. The chicken was dry & over cooked with very sweet sauce. Ribs were just okay. Thin without much on them. Came with bad fries that tasted like from a frozen bag. I pretty much just ate 1/2 my husband’s mashed potatoes as my meal. Never brought the second beer my husband ordered. Never asked me if I wanted another beverage when I finished mine. The Hula pie was a highlight. Overall, just felt rushed in & out. Service just eh. Not at all the special occasion we wanted. Was jealous of table next to us that had an amazing server that was engaged and going the extra mile.

    After appetizers our silverware was taken. We received our hot plates of entrees and no silverware. We asked our servers helper for silverware and he replied “ give me a minute “ and never returned. We asked two more people, waited, then our server. 5 minutes later we got three sets at the same time. No communication between staff and never serve hot food without silverware! Your basically paying for the view, IF, you get a beachside table. Average at best

    After dining here, it’s clear as to why they have such a high rating with so many reviews. Food tasted great and came quickly. We had the parmesan crusted Mahi and herb roasted Monchong and we would highly recommend both of them. The only part I don’t love is the parking situation, but there isn’t really anything to do about that. Overall, this is definitely a spot to check out if you’re on the island!

    Views of the beach from the restaurant were lovely. They had good covers to protect from the worst of the sunlight in the afternoon. Was a bit loud with the music going on from the bar area, I could barely understand my group conversation or the waiter’s information when he came to the table. Food was overall quite good, though one of our dishes had an interesting flavor mix I’m not sure I was a huge fan of. The preparations were nice, and we enjoyed our overall experience there.

    We had Holly as our waitress! Bad service, she was awful! Food was not bad, but not great either. My sons filet mignon was over cooked. We all agreed that this waitress had no personality, we would say something, no response. She seemed only interested if we were ordering more cocktails, I think if you ask once, maybe twice, it’s plenty. Do they commission on cocktail orders? Zero for service.

    Food was good but wait time with reservation was over 30 minutes. I know restaurants can get behind but we arrived exactly on time for our reservation which I had made 10 days earlier and waited over 30 minutes for a table When we checked back steer 15 minutes the receptionist was snippy. This must be a common experience at this restraint because there were lots of people waiting outside with no place to sit. Not worth it
