    Everything was great. However the chicken wings were undercooked. The server said it was because a vein. But I had to return it. I know an undercooked piece of chicken when I see it. Everything else was very good.

    Always a good time. Jayson was great as our waiter. He was efficient, friendly and very funny. Everything from the drinks, pizza, fresh fish, fresh fish tacos was excellent. We all saved room for dessert and had the chocolate cream pie, coconut cream pie and the strawberry cheesecake. You can't go wrong with any one of these. I do wish they had more gluten free dessert options. The place is very loud and it was difficult to enjoy the live music. Otherwise another great evening at the Monkeypod.

    Stars cant really do Monkeypod justice. There is something about it that just calls you back, over and over again. Virtually every time we are in Hawaii, we go at least twice. Its a serious habit. The burgers are relentlessly good, to the point it can be difficult forcing yourself to try other things. Nevertheless, the pizza is great, the wings are great...there are lots of good choices. But the burger... Go, and try something. And become part of the cult that are the Monkeypod faithful.

    Party for two. Wailea location. Our server was outstanding describing the fish special and when we told him we would be enjoying water with our meal, he kept the glasses full the entire meal. We enjoyed starter salads, mine was mixed greens with beets, his was the broccoli salad. My main course was the catch of the day, his was the seared ahi. Salads and main course were exceptional. We sat at an outdoor table at 6:00 pm and the weather was lovely. I made the reservation two days ahead of time. When we checked in early we were seated within 5 minutes and before our reservation time.

    Love monkey pod. Been coming here for years. But today was given the bill with options to pay a 40% tip?? Wtf? 3 drinks and wings and you want $30 tip. Remove that immediately. I was going to give 20 but then got that and gave 10%. Sorry but with the increased prices of food and drinks and on top you recommend 40% tip. Not today. Sorry

    If it wasn’t for being seated at the bar where we got to admire the expert bartender mix drink after drink w/ machine-like precision, I’d be rating this place lower. Yes the house mai tais were awesome, but the layers of noise (even the mellow musician didn’t help it) meant we couldn’t hear each other. Felt more like Cheesecake Factory. Food was good, but overpriced.

    The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The music was a little loud but the live music was great. Reservations not easy to come by at the last minute but definitely recommended.

    Happy hour food was okay. Missed the pumpkin ravioli - replacement is weak! Wood grilled pizza was good. Drinks excellent.
