World class, beautiful view, wonderful service and phenomenal food. If you're looking for a top notch restaurant that comes with the breathtaking ocean view, here it is. I was surprised when we came in to a mostly restaurant and we were asked if we had reservations. I can understand more now why they might need to go by reservations. Firstly their service is ultra professional, awesome friendliness and hospitality. They had such a great demeanor, I loved that so much. The view is one of the best I'd ever seen and to dine here during sunset was wonderful and so worthwhile. Just wow. And the whole ambience is so free flowing and calm. Now the food. OH MY GOODNESS IT IS GOOD. I had a pasta that felt like a delicate and expertly crafted pasta primavera. We thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. They're also kid friendly and have a kids menu, including crayons to color with and high chairs available. As a parent this is so crucial. Hana Ranch Restaurant really is so good, don't miss eating here while in Hāna.

Finadene Alfredo
Evan B.

Hāna Ranch was delightful! I had the Alfredo and thought it was absolutely perfect. Morgayne got the Tofu Stir Fry which we both loved as well. The restaurant was lovey and has a beautiful view of the ocean from the hilltop that it sits on. Our server was really sweet and helped us call a ride back to our hotel! Would absolutely recommend stopping at Hāna Ranch Restaurant if you're staying at Hana-Maui Resort or passing through Hana.

Smash burger
Saketh A.

Great spot in Hana!! I'd come again for the food and view! Very friendly staff. Parking right outside. Get the burger and beer! I enjoyed it. Sat outside and the view to the ocean is just serene. So peaceful. No noise of the traffic. My date had the pasta and she loved it! It was flavorful and very creamy. I'm not a fan of pasta as much so you'd have to take her word for it lol.

Menu

The only reason I'm not giving it one star is because the food wasn't horrible. Service was bad and there was only 1 other table when we arrived. We had an instance when the waitress checked on 1 of the 3 tables outside and we needed refills. When we did get a water refill, the water wasn't picked up and she tried to pour it and it splashed all over the place, which is whatever, it's just water, but still...? Fish sandwich was dry as hell. I have no clue how my husband ate that. They also brought out the wrong dishes first (again there was only 2 tables including us when we arrived). They had to take the food back and then brought our correct food out. At that time now all 3 tables (outside) had received food at same time. I'm usually one to be optimistic about negative reviews and go anyway. We tried a 3.0 star restaurant in Honolulu that was exceptionally amazing and we were happy to provide that review before even leaving the restaurant. Unfortunately, this restaurant is not it. I'd recommend trying some of the food trucks near by if trying to get something to eat.

Last night in Hāna, April 2026, Mango cheesecake & cup of coconut/macadamia coffee
Evin S.

Everything I tried here was delicious! The Teriyaki Chicken, Finadene Alfredo (yes you heard right, if you want to add protein to your pasta, the only chicken option is Teriyaki, I was hesitant at first, but the server said it was good, so I went with her recommendation, and I'm glad I did!) was scrumptious! The Coconut/Macadamia Nut coffee with a side of Mango Cheesecake for dessert hit the spot!

Not many wines, but some great options
Alex P.

Hana Ranch Restaurant is really the only sit down spot in Hana and the lack of competition is likely the only reason it still exists. While it's certain that people here work very hard to prepare food and serve it, mainly for guests of Hana Maui Resort, there are simply not enough employees here. The result is a constant backlog, waiting incredibly long times to get food and staff running around in a state of frenzy. Thus, while sympathetic to the people who are working here, the current model of the restaurant is not sustainable and Hana Maui resort needs to establish their own dinner restaurant, in which scenario both establishments would benefit. When it comes to the food, it's edible, but that's about it. The local grass fed steak was not cooked properly for being a a grass fed cut, thus resulting in a very tough almost inedible piece of expensive meat. The burger was decent, but not great, meat tasted almost synthetic in it. Some decently priced wines, with a great find of Giant Steps from Australia. Out of respect the hardworking people here and knowing it's a small local business, giving the restaurant less than three stars does not feel right, but things do need to change drastically here. It's not enjoyable for anyone in the current state, neither the guests nor the overworked staff.

Fish of the day
Leslie S.

We were in Hana for two days. Got to our resort in time for dinner and came here. Katz was our server and she was fantastic and pretty. I had the fish of the day, which was pasta with fish, shrimp and calamari in a tomato based sauce. Two pieces of garlic toast. 10/10. Plenty of sauce, penne, perfectly cooked fish. Loved it. Husband had the ribs and onion rings. He loved it! Tender and delicious sauce. Ambience was nice, casual. Prices fair. Highly recommend!

Outdoor seating with ocean view
Samantha L.

Lovely outdoor with a nice view of crashing waves. The food was great, I would highly recommend the wings! Service staff was friendly and kind. Great spot if you have little ones that need to stretch their legs after the road to Hana!

Let's just say I enjoyed THREE in 15 minutes! We also ordered the fish and chips and fish tacos, and both were delicious! Great food, excellent service, and a fantastic spot to enjoy lunch in Maui. Definitely lived up to the hype! Highly recommend!

I've been to the Monkeypod kitchen in Ko'Olina, Oahu, and I have nothing but positives to say about that location. When my father wanted to take the family to this particular location on Maui I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately, we were severely let down. When we sat down, main server asked me probably 3-4 times if I wanted anything other than water, and finally I caved and got a maI tai. After I finished it, he asked me another 3-4 times if I wanted another one, despite me telling him I was good after the first one. I appreciate attentive service, but the guy was incessant and trying to upsell us. As far as dinner goes, Food started to trickle out slowly over the next 5-10 minutes, and it was clear that the kitchen wasn't organized. I ordered the bulgogi tacos, one of my favorites at the other location. Unfortunately, they were lukewarm. The worst part was, they completely forgot about my father, who only ordered fries, and when he received them, they were lukewarm, limp and soggy. After my father asked for the tab, he noticed there wasn't a mandatory tip included for the wait staff, but there was actually a separate 4% tip for the kitchen. Since when is this a thing? How about you pay your kitchen a livable wage and quit putting it on the customers? So my father refused the pre-selected 20% tip and tried to put in a "custom" tip of 16% of the bill, which when added to the 4% would have been a total of 20% - in my opinion pretty generous, considering the lackluster service. Here's where it got bad. The server was practically breathing down his neck while he entered his tip, and when he was handed the payment gizmo because it wouldn't take the tip amount, loudly exclaimed "That's not enough!" and then threw it down on the table and stormed off. How demeaning and embarrassing! Is this how you treat customers here? I helped my mortified father figure out how to make the machine accept his tip (despite my suggestion that we drop the amount down to a penny) and we left without another word. Monkeypod, shame on you for: - embarrassing my father, who is a very generous man, - employing wait staff that openly demeans their customers, - serving us mediocre, lukewarm food, - and demanding an extra 4% for the kitchen that didn't take any pride in what they made. What a shame.

The mochiko chicken was nice and crispy on the outside, and I really liked the crunchy bits sprinkled on top, which added some extra texture. However, the chicken itself was extremely bland and barely had any flavor. I was expecting something spicy and well seasoned, and it really could have used a LOT more sauce to give it some flavor. The garlic shrimp was probably the better of the two dishes. The shrimp had a nice garlicky flavor, but I really didn't like that they were fried with the shells on. It made them pretty difficult and messy to eat because you have to peel off the shell while trying not to lose all the garlic, seasoning, and crispy breading stuck to it. The mac salad was decent but nothing special. It was a little bland for my taste, and I wish there had been more potato mixed in since the potato was the element with the most flavor. Another downside is that there was absolutely no seating, so you'll need to plan on taking your food elsewhere to eat. This was pretty inconvenient, especially if you're not staying nearby and want to enjoy them while they're fresh. The cashier also wasn't particularly friendly, which didn't help the overall experience. Overall, I think this place is a bit overhyped. The food wasn't terrible, but the mochiko chicken really missed the mark in terms of flavor, and between the lack of seating and service, I didn't think the experience was worth the hype.

We started with the spam and unagi musabi, which is cut in half and a bit messy for four to share but perfect for two. It was delicious! 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. We had the tasting flight, and all five beers were excellent. Can't wait to come back!

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.
