    Turned the waffle cutter potato's into chili cheese fries
    Robert C.

    What's not to love about a place named Gilligans? Located on a golf course with views overlooking the ocean and greens, this is a great place to catch a snack or Buick bite. I ordered their HOG WILD SMOKY BBQ PULLED PORK (Pulled Kalua Pork with BBQ sauce & house-made coleslaw on a brioche bun served with waffle cut potatoes) with added chili, cheese sauce and jalapeños. My server/barkeep was working her tail off single-handedly taking care of business. She did a great job. The pulled pork sandwich was melt in your mouth tender with a taste of smoky good flavor. The restaurant was very clean.

    View from the 18th hole.

    Great day on the course! Sav is always helpful and friendly! Best cart girl. Hope she had a great day since she makes our day more fun!

    Luau Dinner Buffet

    We were welcomed with smiles and ti leaf leis. The check-in and seating process was pretty seamless. The view was very nice, especially at sunset. We were surprised to sit in the back since we purchased our tickets four months ago. The drink servers came by quickly to take our order, but it was hard to flag them down during the luau for more drinks because each server had to attend to several tables. The buffet line moved quickly as you could serve yourself from both sides of the tables. The food was just ok, best thing I had was the pineapple. The performances were not on the elevated stage, so sitting in the back made it difficult to see. We enjoyed learning about the culture. The music and dancers were entertaining, especially the fire dancer! There was some interactive fun towards the end. All in all we enjoyed the evening, we're just not sure if it was worth the price of admission.

    Over on Maui for a bachelor party. The boys and myself out on the golf course having a great time. Didn't think it could get better until we met the course cart bartender Savannah. She told us about all the local hotspots, including Gilligan's for a luau. This is our second time on Maui and second time on Gilligans and it just keeps getting better with the performers at the luau the food at the restaurant and the bartenders are awesome. It's one of the best ways to wind down on Maui. Cheers all.

    Delicious buffet style food and very nice small luau. Attentive waiter keeping drinking coming and the dancers were very entertaining. Recommend.

    Crammed seating on patio

    Not a great luau in my opinion. There are way better ones on the island. Food was bland and not much of it. They ran out as well. Show was ok. Crammed seating on a patio and is basically best seating for the people Who pay premium price. See pictures.

    Arrival went to bar and the bartender was crabby and rude.; tried our best to get him to be friendly but it was an impossible task. Someone's went to order a drink he bit her head off. Drinks were terrible watered down. No working bathrooms. Ambiance was a dive bar hot as can be no air conditioning. Best thing about this place was the luau and luau food.

    This would have definitely been a beyond 5 star review. The food , service atmosphere and the absolutely beautiful luau were top notch. Everyone was so kind and helpful. We were a party of 25 and like I said I would have given this a 5 star, but there was no inside bathroom. They only had portable toilets outside which made it very difficult for the children and our elderly mom. Please get that taken care of so next time we visit we could give you that 5 stars you deserve

    Great views from the lanai.

    Good to see that Gilligans Bar & Grill is expanding. They've added the Gilligans Island Luau. We've seen many different luaus in Hawaii and this show has all of the bases covered. The show is a little on the small side. There are 5 dancers, but they are very talented and so nice to look at. They have a really good band, too. There are only a few picnic tables for seating, so nobody needs binoculars to see the dancers because it's very intimate. Good variety of dance numbers with quick costume changes and even a fire dance at the end. The buffet has all of the choices that you expect to find at a luau and the food tastes good, too. They have an open bar with a limited choice of cocktails or wine or beer to choose from. Our server did a great job of bringing us drinks and clearing the used plates and glasses from the table. It's easy to book your reservations from Gilligans website. Since this is a new show and word hasn't really gotten around, you can easily reserve seats for shows next week.

    Talented beautiful ladies and these outstanding young men put on such a strong and beautiful show and conveyed the most beautiful message!

    Such an exhilarating and spiritual experience I had! Loved the entire performance! #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth

We ordered three large pizzas: regular cheese, margherita, and sweet kalua ($75). While we waited, we sat outside on the patio, where there was a live musician who was really good and entertaining. The staff was friendly and checked on us to see if we needed anything while we waited. It also seemed like a chill bar where people could grab drinks and hang out on the patio. We took the pizzas home, and they were delicious. Our favorite was the sweet kalua. It was not overly barbecuey or sweet, but actually pretty savory. The margherita pizza was good too. In general, their pizza stands out because there is not too much crust. It was not crispy, but instead airy and on the doughy side. The reason I am giving 3 stars instead of 5 is because one of our group members found a blonde hair baked into his pizza slice, not just sitting on top. That was disappointing, especially since the pizza itself was actually very good.

This bar has multiple types of kava premixed that you can sip on at the bar, and they also have mixed kavas to make it a little more tasty. Service is kind and patient.

This clean, well-lit, friendly and inviting Kava bar practically pulled us in by the ambience. We were greeted by a very attentive bar tender who helped us immediately. The juice blends are well worth it if you're new to Kava - you definitely can taste it but it's palatable and highly enjoyable with the juice mix. We ended up going back 3x during our trip! We've tried the Kihei Sunset, Calamansi, Strawberry Passionfruit, and Pink Drink. All were equally delicious - my husband's favorite was the Kihei Sunset and mine the Strawberry Passionfruit. Kava is a great way to relax throughout the day, take the edge off at the end of the day or relax and prepare for bed. Wish something like this existed in Utah! To the owner, you could really make it if you came to Salt Lake City. Thanks again! We'll miss this spot.
