This was my favorite restaurant on Maui for many years, but recently the quality of the food and service has declined. For new visitors to the island, it's a must-visit for the view alone, but sadly, the days of returning multiple times during the same trip are over. The good news is that there are many other excellent restaurants to try.

My main goal was to try to support local for Lahaina's recovery, and what we found instead was some of the best food and service I've had in years. (Including my recent travels to NYC, Tulum and Italy). The catch of the day was amazing. My husband really enjoyed his seared ahi. And the drinks, woah. This will definitely become a staple stop when we make it to Maui again. And, Lahaina is so Strong.

Our last night on Maui. Excellent restaurant down on Front Street. One of the few restaurants currently available there since the Lahaina fire of 2023. Area is making a comeback tho, and they need our tourist dollars.

Our waiter Rich was excellent. The scallops were exceptional. The wife LOVES fish and chips and the MAHI MAHI version of that here is now her new favorite so I gotta start surpriaing her on Tuesday nights at the house😏 Grwat restaurant to spend...
