I booked my reservation about eight months in advance and thought I might get an ocean view table on the water. However, a walk in customers without reservations just moments in front of us was offered a ocean front table and our seating was far from a view; seems like there should be a priority for people who make the reservations so far in advance or whats the point.

Absolutely incredible! It’d be worth to fly to Maui just to eat at this restaurant and fly back home. Everything is amazing. Usually restaurants ruin a dish through some crazy sauce, but all their sauces and toppings are delicious.

Overpriced food. Food, service and ambience did not feel truly Hawaiian - it felt more like a TGIF - a lot of fried apps that lacked authentic flavor and a server that was over the top. We had Westin privilege cards which we showed at the start which got us two free calamari, but at check time he said he could only comp one. Wow, thanks for not honoring what you said and for only letting us know right at the very end! Also wanted fish tacos but he said it’s only available at the downstairs area. Two separate kitchens under one roof and how are we supposed to know that? Still we gave a good tip but didn’t think it was deserved. Will not return. There are many much better places in Maui.

Wonderful first dinner on Maui on this our first trip back after the fire. We learned in speaking with Frank, our server, that he had lost his home in the fire. We are motivated during this trip to leave behind some of our bounty for the folks who suffered (and we think still suffering ). Frank was excellent, by the way.

Great table- Mahalo! My server suggested Prine Rib since I have never had that before on the many times we’ve been to Lealonis. It was medium well vs medium rare and the mashed potatoes had to have been sitting in steam table warmer for waaaaaay too long. Very very dry and pasty- yuk. The other 3 fish dishes were fabulous. Server was as always wonderful other than not asking how suggested prime rib was.

Prime rib was ok, carrots were undercooked. Salad, calamari, mai tai's mediocre. Staff not as friendly as other places and atmosphere mediocre except great view at sunset. It's disappointing when charges are so high and ambience and food overall are sub par. The least they can do is have great and friendly service.

Our experience was excellent complete with sharing the Maui Green salad with goat cheese, beets, macadamia nuts and the best white balsamic dressing!! We shared the local catch of the day which was baked to perfection with a basal glaze, served with fresh green beans and baby potatoes. Of course you must start with a Mai Tai and end wit Hula Pie.

The food enter choices were limited. Our meal was just ok. I had the Parmesan crusted mahi and my husband had the garlic shrimp pasta.
