7 Best Japanese Restaurants in Lahaina

“Food is excellent and serving sizes are huge! Counter service not too friendly, but she may have been tired from a long day close to being shutdown between lunch and dinner hrs. Cooks were back there working it hard for the last minute rush! Well definitely be back!“

“A nice variety of food on the menu plus it was excellent! Our waitress Yukako (Taco) was upbeat, knowledgeable and made our visit even more fun!“

“We were in Maui for our 10 year wedding Anniversary and I wanted to surprise my husband with a special dinner, as he's a huge sushi fan. he was definitely surprised and excited when we walked in. It feels very exclusive with the minimal seating (make sure to reserve in advance). Not only was every course exceptional, the sake pairings were really good too. And after the main 14 courses, we were offered a “secret menu” with three more options we could add on we of course did and they didn't disappoint. And then the final course was Mango sorbet which was so good. Even if you make a reservation, make sure to get there early to guarantee a spot at the bar and not the table. That way you can clearly see the chefs artistry and clearly hear the description for each course.“

“Our food and service was great! I found it strange that we payed with a gift card and charged a service charge that was described as a credit card fee. That didn't sit right with me. Aside from that it was great. Our server was helpful guiding us.“

“Really good food for reasonable prices. Restaurants with vegetrian options are hard to come by in Maui. So, this place was really nice for us. Several great options for vegetaraians, The curry tofu and singapore noodles were my favorite! A few outdoor tables if you don't want to do take away.“

“Fresh & exelent service we are visitors from palm Sprigs 😋🍣🥢🌈 love it“

“The chef was AMAZING! The food was EXCELLENT! THE service was GREAT! Our water glasses and needs were met continuously throughout the evening. The dinner salad was delicious but such a tiny amount was in the bowl (all bowls at the table had very little), it was almost laughable, I was very disappointed. The quantity of bacon fried rice was very pleasing to his foodie! -as well as the amount of protein given. Veggies were delicious as well. THE MAIN ISSUES: The smoke and hot burning oil smell was so heavy it was not healthy to breathe. It never went away. My hair, skin and clothing wreaked of it after we left as well. My nostrils were bathed in it. I did not feel well. The ventilation needs to be improved heavily in there. Also the temperature was too warm, our entire table of 10 was uncomfortable and sweating the entire time. IF these two main issues were improved my star rating would be a FIVE.“
