    As an introvert, walking into a high-energy spot like Coco Deck Lahaina completely solo was definitely out of my comfort zone--I had that classic "what do I do with my hands?" feeling at first. But it was their 2nd Anniversary celebration, and my desire to try something new and show love to a local spot won out. I'm so glad I pushed myself to go! The bar team was super welcoming, the DJ set such a fun vibe, and treating myself turned out to be the best call. Everything I ordered was fantastic: Escape Shot: Fun, topped with a cloud of whipped cream, smooth, and dangerously easy to sip. Ube Lemonade: Gorgeous purple color and even better taste--tart, refreshing, and perfectly balanced with subtle ube sweetness. Beef Birria Queso Taco: Rich, savory, and packed with crispy griddled cheese goodness. Holy Coconuts! Dessert: Their anniversary collaboration with West Maui Chocolatier was the absolute showstopper. A decadent chocolate shell filled with light coconut mousse, crunchy kiawe crumble, and bright tropical fruit to balance the richness. While the bustling atmosphere is definitely built for a crew, it was worth stepping outside my bubble to celebrate with them. Happy 2nd Anniversary, Coco Deck--proud of myself for stopping in, and next time I'll bring backup to tackle more of the menu! Until next time! XOXO, ChelsieFletcher

    Coco Crusted Mahi

    We decided to try to grab dinner here after a sunset cruise. The restaurant was super busy for a week night. We had a group of 6 and ended up waiting about 25-30 minutes. The restaurant was pretty loud, but had a fun vibe. All staff were friendly and our waiter gave great suggestions. We started with the poke donut which was awesome. I would highly suggest getting one or more for the table. It was SO yummy! The wings were great too, really great flavor. We also got salsa, guacamole and chips which was good, but would probably skip. Entree got the coco crusted mahi which I really liked as well. We didn't have the kids with us, but I appreciated that they had a Keiki zone. This area had games and a play place for the kids.

    Fish tacos

    Sandra our server was the best! 5 outta 5 for her attendance and personality. The dishes and variety were amazing and I have fallen in love with the coconut lemonade!!! Where has this been my whole life????? Right next to the beach so the ambiance is on point. Everyone has that chill laid back energy and we will be back cuz I plan on catching fish later tonight.

    Crispy shrimp. Delicious sauce.

    We had an appetizer. Our server was attentive and friendly. We came to watch a football game and the atmosphere was fun. They have a happy hour. Parking is a limited.

    Yummy happy hour taco for $4.50

    Awesome happy hour... Across the street from Mala. Today I realized they are a sister restaurant to Mala. What a nice corner to have! Happy hour is amazing with 50% off selected apps and salads... And a classic margarita for just $5.50. Bonus to happiness indeed!

    Fish and chips
    Juls B.

    Cute and cozy. Great view of the sunset! Ordered Fish and chips! Mahi Mahi such a good fish for this. Nice and meaty with crunchy batter. Fish Tacos again super yummy and fresh. Others had the secret menu was the Mahi fish sandwich. Basically fish and chips with cheddar cheese. Delish! Service was busy but good. Food came out at lightning speed! In and out fast. Had reservations so not sure how long the wait would be. Parking is challenging so go early.

    Fantastic location with a view of the beach. This Mexican fusion spot has indoor and outdoor seating, I recommend making reservations so you get a good table with a view. My daughter and I sat outside on the patio right around sunset time so we had beautiful lighting, the ambiance couldn't be better. Daughter ordered the fish tacos - three smallish fish tacos on soft tortillas came out with a side of chips and salsa. Unfortunately it wasn't very filling and for $26.75 you wouldn't think you would be hungry afterwards but unfortunately that was the case. I wasn't terribly hungry and got the ceviche stack for $19.75. Definitely more of an appetizer, but it hit the spot - very fresh ingredients. Our hipster server had somewhat of a cocky attitude. I asked if one of their fish dishes was fresh or frozen, and he responded like "duh of course it's fresh." Coco Deck also has a secret menu, when I asked him what that a was about, his response was "well it's a secret menu." Gee thanks! That is so helpful, dude, I don't need your condescending attitude. I also felt like we were rushed out of there. No spirit of aloha. Needless to say, I won't be going back anytime soon!

    Nachos
    London C.

    As far as food on our trip, this honestly might be one of my favorite spots we've been to yet. Walked in with no reservation on a Saturday evening and the two ladies working the front were super lovely and got us seated quickly. The nachos and chips and dip are stellar, incredible queso and guac and the seasoning on the chips brought it up a notch. My only critique would be that for the price of the chips and dip you would think it would be a larger portion! Or at least the chips would be refillable. But alas no. I ordered the southwestern salad with birria for my main. I thought the flavor combo was excellent. Perfect even amount of everything and the meat was flavorful and juicy. Only critiques I have is that it was a bit too salty and again for the price the portion could have been larger. Someone I dined with ordered the spicy chicken sandwich and was a bite disappointed. I tried a bit and found it to be dissatisfyingly unspicy and a the chicken wasn't the greatest. Our service was pretty splendid. Friendly, attentive, and helpful. As far as atmosphere goes, it's decent. I personally don't love going out to eat with a bunch of TVs blaring in my face so maybe take that into consideration. Has an area with free games for the kids or anyone who wants to play, which is fun! Perfect view for sunset so maybe sitting on the outside patio would be a better option!

    Poke donut
    Jed W.

    It was our first time trying Coco Deck. It was very good. I was wavering between a four and a five. The appetizer we had was the poke Donut. We also had the Brussels sprout Caesar salad and the big bowl with Mahi. The kids had the chicken fingers and burger. I would say it was all very good but didn't quite make it to the amazing level. They have homemade hot sauces that they bring to the table, which are mild, medium, and hot, but be careful, even the mild is quite spicy. We had a Mai Tai cocktail, which was good but very heavy on the pineapple flavor. All in all, it was a very good meal, and I would come back and try more of their menu.

    Cocktails with Lihing on the rim

    Went here to watch the World Cup with US team vs Paraguay during their Happy hour.We sat in front of the bar and service from PJ was great. We started with cocktails and shots of Mai Tais and moved on with Appetizers of Fish Tacos,Birria and Loaded Nachos, all were delicious and portions were satisfying. Cubby and Sid took over the service when PJ was ending his time, We ordered few more cocktails and Coronas and ordered Loaded fries also delicious, overall everything was great, we'll be back here again when we visit Maui ,

    Birria Queso  Taco and relish
    Elizabeth H.

    Worth coming here for happy hour! The tacos were excellent and inexpensive. Tasty and very good. The Fish Taco was grilled Mahi with cabbage, pineapple relish, salsa. The Sweet Potato Taco with cabbages was delicious too. As well as the Birria Queso Taco, tender and not dry. For the cocktail, Mule On Da Beach was a choice for a good wash down. Service was attentive, making sure that everything was fine. The outdoor space is a much better place to be than the indoor dining.

    Went into this establishment hungry and came out looking like a snowman. Few things beforehand the happy hour is a true happy hour it's not your 2$ of a 20$ Mai Tai like the local 4 Diamond Drains nearby. A.) It's $5.50 margaritas for happy hour which alone commands a visit. B.) The food unlike some places on the island actually tastes like something you would eat in Hawaii vs going bankrupt for your $27.00 chicken finger plate from the local 4 Diamond Drain. C.) The service was on the spot, I could blink once and my food was on the table. D.) The place has one of the best views Maui right of Front Street, there is nothing better then staring at the ocean like 11 year old while eating fish tacos. AKA The ambiance was Great. Great vibe great experience and good service, a restaurant worth the visit and the money.

    Big deck bowl with carnitas
    Bobbie W.

    This place was so good! The food was different and delicious. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were so friendly and helpful with the menu. They totally steered us in the right directions. And...the bartenders were unknowingly neighbors! Def get the coco crusted mahi. I haven't had a cooked fish dish this good in I can't even remember how long. It was so comforting and tasty. I also loved the carnitas big deck bowl. Lots of different components but they were all good separately and all were good together. For apps, the chicken nachos hit the spot. So glad we ordered this. The chicken wings were great too. We left super stuff and happy to have a found a place with really good food. Will definitely be back!

    Big Deck Bowl with coconut rice, sweet potatoes, house slaw, chimichurri, and added pulled pork -- colorful, balanced, and flavorful.

    Do they open early AM on sundays for morning football?

    They did last year so I would assume they will again. My husband used to go down and watch the early games so they opened between 0700 and 0800.

    Do you need reservation for lunch?

    Aloha Richard, You do not need reservations for lunch, but we take them through Open Table if you desire.

The service was friendly and welcoming as well. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite match the setting for us. Several dishes were overly salty, and the value for the portion sizes was disappointing. For example, five small prawns were $45, and the whole fried fish was $99. The calamari starter was also disappointing. It wasn't fresh calamari, but rather fried calamari strips that seemed like the type that come frozen in a bag. The bruschetta wasn't really bruschetta either. It was more like an open-faced sandwich. At these prices, I expected better quality, preparation, and portion sizes. It's definitely a place where you're paying a premium for the oceanfront view and atmosphere. Beautiful location and friendly service, but the food and overall value fell short for us.

I had the evening special--kampachi served with an incredibly creamy risotto and red wine butter sauce, and it was absolutely delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked, tender and buttery, and the risotto was so good that I'm already trying to figure out how to recreate it at home. My husband had the Ali'i mushroom pizza with artisan cheese, white truffle oil and lavender. Such an unusual combination, but it worked beautifully. I also really appreciated having wonderful gluten-free options. It's not always easy to find a meal that feels truly special when you need to eat gluten-free, and this absolutely did. We also tried the bruschetta with ahi tuna! So unique and tasty! Add the beautiful oceanside setting and this was one of those Maui dinners we'll still be talking about after we get home. We would absolutely return to Honu Oceanside on our next trip. Highly recommend!

    First off, I want to say shoutout to Astrid who was our phenomenal server! She treated us very well…read moreand made our night feel special. She knew the menu well and was great at describing the dishes. Loved the overall service here plus you get to pick sparkling or still water. Drinks were both really good! Got the lilikoi and coconut one. Grilled octopus appetizer - Omg, this was the best grilled octopus I have ever had! It was soooo tender, did not even need a knife to cut through it, and it was like butter. Cooked to perfection! Would come here again just for this. The sauces and spread also complimented the dish well. Ahi Bruschetta - this one was a bit messy to eat . The flavors were ok, I felt like there was something missing. But the ahi tasted great! Diver Scallop entree - The scallops on here were huge, but were a bit undercooked. Golden brown on both sides but the middle was more on the raw side. Still tasted amazing! I loved the garlic mashed potatoes. The sauce of the mushrooms tasted a bit too much like vinegar for my liking. Cioppino - There was a generous portion of seafood in this. The broth taste is on the lighter side. The seafood was a bit overcooked. The fish was dry and shrimp was a bit tough. Still overall decent dish, if it wasn't overcooked it would have been so good! The views are amazing especially during the sunset! Would come here again to try their other dishes and drinks.

    I learned about this spot after watching YouTube videos of Maui recs. I am so glad I listened to…read morethis one. This spot is delicious! They literally have a sign along the highway. We made a reservation about a week in advance and I highly recommend doing that because it was packed the night we went. I think they may have bar seating first come, first serve. I really liked the celebration cocktail and my husband enjoyed the Kamuela Fizz. We ordered the pork steam buns, which I loved the most. Pro tip: ask for four if you have a party of two or four. They won't charge you extra and you'll have an even number so no one is fighting for some. We also enjoyed the hot and sour soup and the Look More Funn noodles. Everything we ate was delicious. Our server was stellar. I recommend asking for their spicy chili oil, if you like heat. It paired well with everything we tried.

About 30 minutes before our reservation, we returned and attempted to order non-alcoholic drinks for our kids while waiting outside. We were told that this was not allowed--apparently, children cannot even have water or soft drinks in the outdoor area. This was an extremely strange and unnecessarily rigid policy. Even more confusing, we were told the bar area was reserved exclusively for walk-ins. Because we had a reservation, we were not allowed to sit at the bar and have a cocktail while waiting. The whole situation was bizarre and made what should have been a relaxed start to dinner unnecessarily uncomfortable. The food may be good, but the customer experience and inflexible policies left a very poor impression.

I had the grilled Ono, and it was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It was one of those meals you're still thinking about afterward.

    Want the luau food experience without paying for the actual luau show? This is a great option!…read more It's an outdoor restaurant, so definitely dress accordingly. If it's drizzling outside, you can bet you'll probably be drizzled on while eating your meal too! But the setting is beautiful, especially if you get a table around sunset--you can watch the sunset right from your seat. There are plenty of food options to choose from, along with lots of drink options. The restaurant sits right next to Old Lahaina Luau, so if you make a dinner reservation around luau time, you can even hear the luau going on next door. They had traditional Hawaiian food such as poi, lau lau, kalua, etc. Service was good as well. Overall, a fun way to enjoy some of the food and atmosphere without paying for the full luau experience!

    The remodeled Aloha Mixed Plate looks much better than the old location, but unfortunately the…read moreexperience did not live up to the hype--or the prices. We left disappointed by the unfriendly service, very small portions, and a bill that felt wildly out of proportion to what we received. Our experience The setting is attractive and the renovation is a real improvement. However, the service lacked the warm, welcoming aloha spirit we hoped for, especially at a restaurant that markets itself as a Maui favorite. The pricing was the biggest issue: - $17.50 for an appetizer of only five wings. - $35.50 for a kalbi plate that amounted to roughly 2 1/2 ribs, chopped into seven or eight small pieces. - $19 for a small serving of mochiko chicken bites. - The kids' sliders were just two tiny burgers on Hawaiian sweet rolls. For two entrées, one appetizer, and two non-alcoholic drinks, our total came to more than $110. That is difficult to justify when both the portion sizes and overall service fell short. Bottom line We understand that Maui is expensive and that restaurants face high operating costs. Still, charging premium prices should come with generous portions, consistently good food, and genuinely hospitable service. Aloha Mixed Plate may have a beautiful new space, but at these prices, it feels overhyped and not like a good value. We hope they reconsider the portion sizes and customer experience, because the lack of aloha and the high prices could easily turn visitors away rather than make them want to return.

We spent every breakfast during the week at Ulu Kitchen since it was on property, wait times weren't too long (or bad at all), food was great, and they had good service. We were always seated outside and the ambiance was perfect! They had a great variety of breakfast items on their menu and I never re-ordered the same meal during our trip! I was a BIG fan of the Monkeypod Mai Tai Flapjacks (with the lilikoi foam!), the Organic Blueberry and Lilikoi Flapjacks, and the Greek Yogurt Bowl (super fresh fruit with great variety)! I would like to shout out our waiter Maz for his amazing hospitality and service! Not only was he very kind, he gave great recommendations to our table and each one was a hit. Mahalo, Maz!

We booked our stay through Costco, which included a $60 daily breakfast credit, and Ulu Kitchen quickly became one of our favorite parts of the trip. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with incredible ocean views that make breakfast feel extra special. The food was excellent, and everything we ordered was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Our favorite was the blueberry and lilikoi flapjacks and the classic breakfast. The staff were also incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The combination of the gorgeous setting, delicious food, and wonderful service made Ulu Kitchen a highlight of our stay. We would absolutely recommend it and will definitely be back the next time we're in Maui!
