    We had a fantastic meal, our server Cody was very attentive, and when it started to rain, we got moved inside quickly. Great location and excellent food.

    The macadamia nut mahi dish was the best on the island. I tried several similar dishes at other restaurants throughout the week and none compare to Ulu’s. Will definitely return next time in Maui. Great food, great views, great service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Does not have too many choices and the presentation is not impressive. The string beans are overcooked and mashed potatoes under the fillet is bloody. Raviolis are so dry. Not impress
