“This was the best experience! The food was fantastic, our waiters were fantastic, and they were very attentive to food allergies! 100% worth the money. Ask for Cousin Kyle with the Smile!”
“We made a reservation in advance for the omakase experience. We've tried a couple of omakase dinners before but the one at Takumi felt intimate and personal. For omakase diners only, we were seated inside a room together all facing the chef, save for a table of four on the other wall. We tried their flight of sake that was chosen with chef specialty and had the best service offered by the waitressed who refilled our glasses plenty and attended to all our questions during dinner. It was an experience worthwhile and we celebrated our one year anniversary here! Definitely would recommend to those looking to try something new and wanting to taste unique sushi dishes. Thank you so much for the experience!”

“The food was amazing, the seared ahi tuna melted in your mouth. We dined and listened and watched the waves crashing. It was such an amazing experience”
“Not your average cinnamon roll and pizza joint! Best in the world cinnamon rolls (I’m a 25 yr cop-I know my pastries!!)! Fantastic fresh pizza is a must have. But the Aloha spirit washes over this place and spills out into the streets like the smell of freshly made cinnamon rolls. After the tragic Maui fires, Papi’s c rolls and pizza were given out free…yes free! To visitors and displaced local fire victims alike. For weeks! One should note: the tip jar over floweth in return…as it should be. Aloha is reciprocal and magnified here. It’s not just a great place to eat. It’s a great place to be. The spirit of aloha is not the only spirit in this place. The Holy Spirit is so present you just feel well and good for having been there and participating in the example displayed. Be goodly, be Godly, live a life of aloha with good thoughts, good prayers and good deeds. Take care of your community your community will take care of you. All that, and the best cinnamon rolls ever.”
“The family just had an early dinner there and everything was very delicious 🤙 Burgers, Onion Rings, French Fries and sodas! Highly recommend Teddys for a great meal!”
“We love going to Leilani’s on the Beach. The service is top-notch, and the setting cannot be beat (although admittedly, many Maui b chaise restaurants match it… West Maui is amazing!). Every meal we’ve tried has been delicious. When we first visited in 2008, it inspired us to name our daughter-to-come Leilani. She is now 17 and we are on our way back soon for her grad trip. Can’t wait to see you in April!”

“Really good food (paninis, acai bowls) and drinks (coffee and smoothies). Decent service, took a while to get food. Fairly pricey. Limited restroom availability (one person at a time, need to get a code from the cashier and it’s exterior to the building). No parking. Had to park .3 mi away at a golf course (and had to pay), as all the nearby street parking was taken.”
“The Ulana Terrace is a wonderful way to begin a day. The breakfast buffet looked lovely but I prefer ordering off the menu. Our server Adlai was helpful and attentive. He even brought us an anniversary surprise at the end of our meal!”

“A great place to eat on Kaanapali Beach! This beach front setting provides casual dining with great food, service with a smile and beautiful Maui sunsets. Our Maui vacations always include visits to the Castaway Cafe. Their prime rib and fish tacos do not disappoint! We will be back!”
“I rarely ever leave reviews, but this experience was seriously amazing. Our server was genuinely one of a kind, I’m pretty sure he is name is Sonny. He is incredibly welcoming, charismatic, and has genuinely incredible vibes all around. He gave us great recommendations for food, which were all amazing dishes. He is also very funny, if I could give this spot 100 stars for service I would do it. Although on the pricy side, it is definitely worth dining here 1000%.”
“Probably one of the prettiest indoor/outdoor patios we've experienced. We really enjoyed the variety of local live music on the 3 occasions we stopped in during our stay!
Food & cocktails are pricey - but worth it. Our favourites were the Waygu Smash Burger, Miso Black Cod and Ube Cheesecake.
The only dish we didn't love for the price was the Tuna Crispy Rice.”

“I am a longtime customer at Naplil Coffee Store and I highly recommend them. Their coffee is superb. They make the best lattes on the island and they have wonderful bakery goods. My favorite is the blueberry muffin and the almond Joy cookies. They also have a wonderful quiche, either bacon or veggie and goes along great with your coffee. They get five stars from me every time.”

“This place is very a very unique and interesting place!! We had breakfast and we’re served by a new server from Cali “ Mati” like us!! And she was not only a sweetheart but fast and one of the only servers doing circles in the whole restaurant and still making sure we we’re doing okay the whole time. The food was great. And definitely will be back??”
“This cantina is a gem! From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere wraps you in warmth and hospitality. Every wall offers something visually captivating—the design is a masterclass in eye-catching details. And the food? Unbelievable. Each dish bursts with flavor, perfectly balancing freshness and a farm-to-table vibe that feels intentional and nourishing. Even their non-alcoholic beverages impressed—refreshing, thoughtfully crafted, and just as memorable as the meal. If you’re in Honokowai, this place is a must-stop❣️”
“We just so happened to stumble upon Slappy Cakes while driving by in Maui! We decided to check it out before heading back home from vacation and Slappy Cakes did NOT disappoint!! The food was incredible, the atmosphere was great, and everyone was very friendly. Coy was our server and we will never forget how awesome he was!! Not only was he an excellent and very prompt server but he stayed after closing time to finish a conversation with us about the island that left a lasting impact on our hearts. Most would have pushed us out, but not a single staff at Slappy Cakes rushed us out at close so we could enjoy our meal and our experience while also making powerful connections! The world needs more people like Coy!! ❤️ 🥞”
“We stayed for 4 nights in the resort for my aloha birthday dream getaway and it was truly amazing stay. The staffs are so friendly and accommodating mostly are Filipinos like me. Our room was upgraded to a partial ocean view which makes us feel so special though breakfast buffet is just fair not much of food selections. Overall the resort is amazing with pool views and the beach!”
“This place is awesome, I fell in love! Too bad it’s a million miles away lol.”
“Best hotel in Maui. They provide unlimited spa access unlike four seasons and Ritz, and location is perfect for snorkeling and paddle boarding . Turtles and seals are often visible from the beach . Not as many restaurants at other properties but the property itself is immaculate and leaves nothing to be desired .”

“My daughters and I went with our friends. It was a group of 9 and we all loved it! We paid for the vip so that we could be front to the show, it was worth it. The food was exquisite. The show itself was excellent even in the rain. I was amazed at the level of love and commitment the dancers had because as the show started the rain did too and it got stronger, but they kept dancing with a smile. Thank you for sharing your culture through dance. I would highly recommend it!”
“Decided to take a chance on this one despite the reviews. It may not be a production of the scale that some of the hotels put together, but this one makes up for that with the people involved. All of the performers were local and related in some way, and we got the feeling that they really care about telling the story of the islands and the surrounding region. Food was good (vegetarian so can’t speak to the meats) and the performances were exciting and engaging. Two drinks included per person and seconds were encouraged. We even learned some hula! Would recommend supporting this up and coming luau production!”
“Hands down best food truck in Lahaina. These people care about the food they make. Always amazing with the freshest fish and the flavor combinations are out of this world. I always come here when I'm on the west side. Thanks guys!!!”

“Man I wish I would have gotten a hot dog when my wife and I stopped here back in August of '22... came back 2 years ago in March with my Mother and Father in law and our 3 boys and I'm a bonehead for never stopping here any of the times we drove thru Olowalu! The kids would all groan everytime I expressed interest in stopping the vehicle ANYWHERE. Just made me realize the next time I'm in Maui, it may very well be kid-free 🤣”
“Love, love, love! Must do in Waikiki.”
“This place was amazing! The name of the restaurant is a little misleading, but they have way more than pizza! They have salads, burgers, Mediterranean bowls, and so much more! I would also recommend the Dole Whip Float, as the pineapple flavor was superb. I highly recommend this place for families as they also have a family friendly bar. Five stars!”
“This ice cream shop is located in Royal Lahaina Resort, ground floor. They serve coffee and breakfast items throughout the day and have the best ice cream flavors available! Not sure if its just Hawaii or this location but we LOVED the mango / matcha / lychee + coconut flavors that we ended going everyday!! Their coffee was okay though and I believe there are better breakfast options in the area, especially with the line out the door.”
“Look at the color all around this beautiful Panda Express Maui in Lahaina. I love creamy color and white. So i give it a four star, the place has a two electricity outlet outside where anyone can charge up their cellphones or gadgets. It has a variety of food to choose from. Check it out! Bring your friends and your family.”
“Well done! Highly recommended, We will definitely return. This getaway will be missed.”
“Had the Lime Coconut drink at happy hour. Delicious!!! Enjoyed the cliff diving ceremony but what really struck me was the guitar playing and the hula dancer. She was so graceful and beautiful. Wish I could see it every day.”

“Very few food spots on Maui have the array of food, reasonable price, quality, and taste as Nikki’s Pizza – and the staff are nice persons. We’ve been visiting there for 20 years, Additionally, how many other places have the owner working there to ensure the qualities mentioned? 6 of 5 stars!”

“The service is about to get allot better. They are bringing in a ringer. This dude can handle a floor by himself. He's like a duck in water. Mind you if the whole place is full you must be patient. I guarantee there won't be any sloppy moves. Remember there were only a few servers. It starts at the hostess/ host stand on giving the guests an accurate wait time. Just because you get sat doesn't mean the server is ready for you. But there is no excuse for some of the comments I read. This is about to be fixed. This guy is going to train the rest of the staff that need help. I can't wait to see the improvement. It's about having fun and being on top of your game. Every move must be 3 steps in advance. You should never be looking around for a coffee refill of wanting a check. If there is an issue with your food the 3 minute check back is when you get to voice your opinion. If a server asks "how is everything? " be honest. We want you to enjoy it. Don't feel bad letting us know how we can improve your meal. That's what we get paid to do. We wanna know! If you haven't figured it out yet... I'm the ringer. Come see me and the rest of the new improved crew. We look forward to making your day start out right. Then get on out and enjoy Maui!”

“Roy’s is set on the Ka’anapali golf course. The inside of the restaurant leaves a little to be desired. It’s very basic. Some of the other reviews state it being bright and louder, which I would say is accurate. Feels like a slightly upscale clubhouse restaurant.
That being said, everyone that helped us that evening were very nice and accommodating. They made you feel like you were in a fancy restaurant. Our server, Christina, was fantastic.
The food, including the appetizers and main course, were delicious. Our table enjoyed the calamari, bao buns and beet salad to start. Then we had the butterfish, macadamia crusted catch, which was Mahi, tiger shrimp, ribeye and fish/shrimp duo. We all enjoyed our meals.
As with any of the other “elevated” restaurants on the island, you will want to make a reservation.”

“Best shave ice ever! We walk out of our way to make sure we go here repeatedly. The owner makes the berry flavors from real fruit and the mint leaves are from her own garden (touch of something extra special). Whenever we walk away with one of these creations, we have a crowd of people asking us where to get it. Now you all know: HulaScoops for the win! PS I'm partial to the marionberry, but the Boss prefers the Cocolada.”
“Delicious crepes! Savory or sweet, you got it. The crepe itself had some bite to it and had a good subtle egg flavor. The owner was very nice. I went on the weekend and there was a hula performance inside the food court that this food truck was parked at. I would come back again for more yummy crepes!”
“Gorgeous restaurant with extensive varied menu. Portions and options are on the light side, and veggie centric. The home grown blistered cherry tomatoes are exceptional. Breakfast is five star although look at the ingredients closely to see if the typical ingredients are vegan. The bagel with salmon didn’t have cream cheese, it may have been vegan.”
“Because you are at the resort expect to pay quite a bit for a drink and food. It’s very convenient as it is right by the pool, so you don’t need to go far for lunch as you are lounging. Ended up getting a pina colda which was not the best. It hurt paying so much for a not very tasty drink. Plenty of other options that were likely better.”
“My friends and I went here to sing almost every night when we visited Maui. Such a fun place to drink, sing, and dance. We met Chong who treated us like family. So grateful for his hospitality and finding those awesome spot.
Chong, if you’re reading this and you ever find yourself in Cleveland, OH please hit up Patrick so we can take you out to our “Pineapple Robot”.”
“I recently stayed at the Royal Lahaina and I frequented the Lahaina Noon during my stay with my wife. The views are incredible! The staff are friendly and outgoing. The food was great, as well as the adult beverages! The birds are very entertaining to say the least! 🤣 Can't wait for our next trip!”
