Gorgeous restaurant, very friendly and efficient service (highly recommend making a reservation during popular mealtimes), very well made and clean locally sourced ingredients for their menu items. They are one of the few places open a bit later and with all day service that is not in a hotel. Plenty of parking and an elevator for ease of access. They also offer live music and happy hour. They made my favorite salad of my trip... it was a very simple green salad made with local sweet onions and greens that was a must order with every meal. The deviled eggs with lobster was another favorite. The fish and chips, tuna melt, burger, and mahi sandwich were all good. I would pass on the happy hour pizza and fried dumplings - both were more dough than topping or filling.

A nice wine tasting place in Upcountry Maui …read more.. Had a whole day on Maui, so why not have a wine flight or two, along with a bit of munchies... So after making the Komoda Bakery and Pukalani Superette stops along the way, I continued to the end of Highway 37, and then some, to this place! Takes about an hour from Kahului, or 25-30 minutes from Makawao, so plan accordingly... But a nice drive into the countryside, and a laid back place to have a taste of some locally produced wines. Also roam around the nicely landscaped grounds and see some rooms that can be rented for private parties and such. This place will continue to be on my list to stop by if I have time in Upcountry Maui and feel a need for a bit of fuzzy goodness....

We decided to take home 5 bottles. We were able to have them packed to be checked onto the plane. There was also an option to have it shipped home. They also have options to join their wine club - we considered, but maybe we will join next time. We came in as a walk in and brought our two kiddos. I took off one star because we seemed to get mixed service from the hostess and server. I'm not sure if it was because we were a walk in, a larger group or had kids. I would definitely add this to your itinerary if you love wine, want to have a picturesque relaxing afternoon, and want to get away from the resort

6.22.26 UPDATE We…read moreoriginally had a disappointing experience due to slow service, limited attention from staff, and the lack of air conditioning during our visit. However, the owner took the time to respond and explain that the entire shopping center wing was experiencing cooling issues and that the restaurant was dealing with significant staffing shortages at the time. While that doesn't completely change the experience we had, I appreciate that the owner acknowledged the challenges and responded professionally rather than dismissing the feedback. One observation I would offer is that, as a customer, it was difficult to tell who was serving tables. I noticed several employees in Pint & Cork shirts moving around the restaurant, but only saw a couple of servers actively covering the dining area. It's possible some staff were assigned to bartending or other responsibilities, but from the guest perspective it gave the impression that table service was understaffed while other employees appeared unavailable. I still think there is room for improvement in the flow and logistics on the floor, but I appreciate the owner's willingness to engage with feedback and explain the circumstances. That being said, I would be willing to give the restaurant another chance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED REVIEW AFTER OWNER'S RESPONSE: 6.21.26 I appreciate the response. It's telling that you addressed the air conditioning, disputed the gender of an employee, and questioned whether I was even there, yet didn't meaningfully respond to the concerns about service, timing, attentiveness, or food quality. If a customer leaves with a poor experience, the question isn't whether they perfectly recalled every detail. The question is why they left with that impression in the first place. I suspect future readers can draw their own conclusions from both the review and the response. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Probably the most disappointing dining experience of our Hawaii trip. We specifically asked to sit indoors because we wanted a break from the Maui heat after spending the day outside. Unfortunately, we quickly realized there was no air conditioning, making the indoor seating barely any cooler than outside. The restaurant also felt severely understaffed. It took around 10 minutes just to get a Diet Coke, and every time I asked for assistance, the woman working at the register seemed to defer the request rather than help or find someone who could. Meanwhile, some employees appeared more interested in chatting than helping customers, while only one or two staff members seemed to be working the floor. I understand restaurants get busy, especially in a tourist area, but the issue wasn't just the wait--it was the feeling that customer service wasn't a priority. As for the food, it was nothing special. I ordered a steak that had a nice smoky flavor, but it arrived well done and overcooked. The rest of the meal was average at best and definitely not memorable enough to make up for the service issues. Between the lack of air conditioning, slow service, inattentive staff, and mediocre food, this was one of the few places in Hawaii where I genuinely regretted spending my money. Considering the location at The Shops at Wailea and the prices being charged, I expected a much higher level of hospitality and execution. There are far too many great dining options in Wailea to come back here.

We had colorful drinks which were highly recommended that I do not remember and I did not capture pics. We ate several items off the menu, did not capture all of them, the stand outs for me were the tacos and the salmon. We were surprised with a lovely glass of champagne by our lovely server.

The environment is very laid-back and casual with an open-air setup that lets you see the ocean while you eat. We loved that we could just walk right in without a wait, and the service was very friendly. They also have a convenient spot on the side where they sell pizza by the slice if you're in a hurry.

Of course everything will be overpriced for a fine dining inside the Fairmount resort. Services is good and friendly.

When they arrived, the oyster meat was extremely thin, watery, and lacked any plumpness or rich flavor. They seemed to be post-spawn or poorly harvested.

We also had the poke nachos which had plenty of fresh ahi piled on. My wife and I split a smash burger deluxe style--one of the best burgers I've had for a while. The boys split fish tacos, which they devoured with enthusiasm. We had two sides of fries for the four of us, which was more than enough. The server was helpful and efficient.

Skip the food, enjoy the beer…read more Ok tourists, you gotta know that anything in Wailea = wallet piracy. This place is no different. Way overpriced and rather uninspired food. Suggested tip is 25%, that's a huge red flag! Lahaina Brewing purchased Kohola brewing about one year ago. How I wish I had visited before that, because looking at historical Yelp reviews, the previous food offerings look SO much more interesting and were made with local and traditional products. Now what you get is $11 spam musubi, a pretzel that has both fish roe and sugary syrup on it (gross!) for $21, pseudo-Niçoise salad for $28 (WTF!), and imported shrimp cocktail for $5 a shrimp. Piss off! Even the server said it was a total rip-off. The menu is massively disappointing for those who actually have a frame of reference. Good thing we only came for beer. Tried the Kohola beer in Makawao and was very impressed. The Tall Story Pale Ale is really excellent, gold standard for pale ale, but you don't have to come here to enjoy it. Happy Hour is 2-5 p.m., $2 off Kohola draft and $4 off a glass of wine. Regular price beer is $8.50, fairly standard price. Unlike others, we had a good service experience. The ambience is comfortable, but I still would not return.

I stopped by first as part of my Mai Tai crawl. The $23 "1944 Mai Tai" was excellent and nicely balanced. The rums had enough backbone to stand up to the rest of the ingredients. It wasn't too sweet and the mint bunch was just the right size. Definitely recommend. I went back the next night for dinner and another drink. For dinner I had the poke bowl which was great though a bit on the small side, even by Maui standards. I paired this with the Fortaleza Still Strength Chartreuse Swizzle ($40): Green Chartreuse, Fortaleza Still Strength tequila, Maul Gold pineapple, Maul falernum, lime, served with custom pineapple cocktail pick. The cocktail pick was fun as you get to "choose your own weapon" and select a custom pick. Dominic was running the bar both nights and he was great. Friendly, knowledgeable, and he poured a mean Chartreuse swizzle. While he was making the Swizzle he served me a shot of their "Rum Cannonball" which I enjoyed much more than I thought I would. I definitely recommend Tikeahau!

The staff was extremely friendly, our food and drinks came out quickly, and always with a smile. Everything we tried was high‑quality and clearly made with care. Their happy hour menu is surprisingly robust. Drinks The Tropical Mai Tai was a standout. The flavor really popped without being overly strong, just a genuinely great drink. The Rum Cannonball was delicious as well, with a bright pineapple flavor that's perfect for a hot day on the patio. They do have a nice selection of local beers on tap. Food The Kalua Pork Sliders were the highlight. The pork paired beautifully with the curry slaw, so many layers of flavor, and the toasted roll was a perfect finishing touch. The Mini Poke Bowl was fresh and vibrant. Adding avocado really elevated it, and the sesame brought a nice depth of flavor. The Onion Dip was a fun surprise. Loved hearing the story behind it, they once over‑ordered onions and created this dip, which has since become a best seller. It's easy to see why. Finally, the Ahi Slider was excellent. The ahi was high‑quality and seared perfectly, and again, the toasted bun made a big difference. The sesame oil added a great finishing note.
