Davina G.

so this is a very hard review to do because in general I've came here a couple times when I come to the island and the bartenders are always extremely attentive and kind. I only sit at the bar so this was probably my third night in a row, I have had the jalapeño poppers which are amazing. I was there on Saturday night. Had a couple rounds. All of a sudden a wedding party comes in and the managers kicking everybody out extremely rude no explanations just telling people "get the fuck out". I found it to be so distasteful and abrupt to the environment. I was not returning. I Did want to return on Sunday to see if there would be any apologies, however after experiencing what we're experiencing really left a sour taste in our mouth the manager I hadn't seen there in the last couple days. I was there. She was a lil short with long wavy hair. let me tell you I would've hopped that she was not the owner. The vulgarity that was coming out of her mouth was crazy.

We came here for lunch the other day. It was the perfect choice. We got to sit outside the weather was perfect. Our server was great! She was very friendly and attentive. My daughter and I split the chicken sliders and the Carne Asada fries. My man ordered the fish tacos. We all enjoyed our food. My daughter had a lava flow here for a drink. She thought it was super good. Great lunch spot!!

A gem next to the Kaanapali resort area. Best food in town, of the entire week we were there. Everyone enjoyed their choice. Great service, casual dining inside and outside table - but high end ingredients. Mixed bourbon drink was too sweet, but the bartender gave me an extra shot of bourbon to make it more palatable.

We were traveling with three teenage boys who not only have big appetites, but also get bored pretty easily. We found Happy fish on Yelp and went to dinner and wound up staying for bingo on Wednesday! Three adults and three teenagers all had a great time. The food was great. The drinks were wonderful, especially the POG foam covered Mai Tai & Lilikoi Mule.

First time visiting Happy Fish while on vacay in Maui and WOW, this place is awesome -- especially for a late night bite!! We unfortunately left it to 8:30pm to find a dinner place (had a full day) and many places were closing soon. I came upon Happy Fish during my research and looked at the menu, everything sounded good. Upon arrival it was ~9pm and they close at 11pm, so still have a few hours. It was actually kinda busy for 9pm. Folks at the bar and a few tables. It was seat yourself though so we grabbed a spot and our waiter came within a couple minutes to greet us and bring waters. I already knew what I wanted: TROPICAL MAHI RICE BOWL: mahi filet over a bed of rice with slaw, mango salsa, poblano sauce, sour cream, cilantro & lime. The mahi was grilled and delicious!! I asked for a side of hot sauce and that completed the dish. Absolute !! The service was really great, I enjoyed Michael and his conversation. He was so interesting and definitely made the experience 5 for us. The other thing I really appreciated about Happy Fish is that they didn't bust your wallet. The prices were competitive and because of that, I'll definitely be back. I saw they have a happy hour menu too 9-11pm, I'm going to try that before I leave along with black light bingo Wednesday nights!! More fun to come and I'll def be telling all my friends and family who come to Maui to hit up Happy Fish. Amazing service, bomb food, great prices, and awesome vibe. Can't ask for anything more!!

Fake bartender who hates his life

WISH WE NEVER GAVE THIS PLACE A CHANCE AND TOOK THE REVIEWS ON TERRIBLE SERVICE MORE SERIOUSLY! The little blonde head curmudgeon has the be the most miserable person on Maui. His face says it all... he hates his life... well go work under a rock buddy...you're in the wrong business! The drinks he made were horrible...taste like syrup and espresso Martini from a machine??? The waitress was super nice though. Absolutely would NOT recommend this place to anyone!!!

The food was delicious, but the service was appalling. We waited for 10 minutes without any acknowledgment from the waitstaff who were walking around aimlessly. The service was ridiculous, and the ambiance was even more confusing.

The name of this place sounded like a poke spot to me but it's really not and fish is actually featured in less than half of the menu. Lots of nice versions of bar favorites. Come during one of their two happy hours (I think it was 9-12 and 5-11pm) It's a nice spot with a breezy and private covered outdoor patio adjacent to a dining area and bar that opens to outside. It's in a strip mall but this spot is really nice. It feels neighborhoody, other groups were clearly a broad range of local residents. This would be a nice place to hang and chill after work, plus they're open til midnight. Non happy hour drinks were fairly priced. Food was good. My fish tacos with mahi were excellent, served with a great pickly slaw. Fish and chips were crisp and piping hot with a decent tartar. The fries were excellent! Come here for a good mix of residents and tourists eating fairly priced dependable meals. Check out my photos for more info. Good spot!

This is a great place off the beaten path for drinks and game watching. Tip order at the bar for the best service. There's more TVs than servers so you'll always be able to watch football!

We came here after spending the day in Napili beach. Location is great, ambiance is pleasant,…read moreservice is fantastic. As we walked in, we were greeted immediately and asked if we preferred high tables in the bar area or dining and were seated right away. We ended up choosing to sit by the bar and were greeted by our server/bartender timely. We ordered chips and salsa, chips were warm and crisp to perfection salsa was super good! We ended up ordering the burrito, enchiladas and garlic shrimp. Everything was really good BUT the garlic shrimp was to die for! Definitely worth the $40! The sauce, the serving, the size of the shrimp...just amazing. And our server made our visit such a pleasant experience. I'd also like to add, well kept restrooms for customers say so much about an establishment. Highly recommend this place!

Got there right at 12 when they open. I ordered to go -…read moreSergio's grade burrito with shredded beef , it was loaded with beef nothing else , very little bit rice or beans or cheese , average taste Kids tacos - forgot to give the tortillas with the order , had to go back and then they only gave two when the lady specifically mentioned it comes with 3 tortillas Maiz con queso - this was pretty good it come with chips but the lady said for to go orders we give complementary chips and salsa . There was no extra chips only whatever came with the dip. And the salsa wasn't very good either . Overall below average , may be other dishes are better but based on what we ordered it was average.

IT WAS BEAUTIFUL outside with plentiful seating and a perfect view of the sunset on the beach. I ordered the fish and chips, my husband ordered the hot booty ruben, our friends ordered the ribs and chicken wings. For an appetizer, we got the nachos and man, did it hit the spot! You know how sometimes when you order nachos and they come out soggy? This didn't, it was nice and crunchy and after a beach day, it was just right with the beans, pico, jalapenos, and sour cream. The fish and chips were delicious- the fish was nicely battered with a THICK chunk of fish, not skimpy at all and the ribs were nice and juicy and fell off the bones!! Our favorite was the hot booty ruben sandwich- full of flavor, juicy meat along with the tartness of the sauerkraut! Our least favorite were the chicken wings, it wasn't as juicy as we hoped it was going to be but it was a chunky and at least got us the protein we needed. All in all, we are going to come back again. We all agreed that this was a winner. PS, try their house made Maui mules!! All of us tried it and it was so refreshing, especially with the candied ginger on top! Not only did we come here once, we came back again another night to try other foods!

With a $75 credit burning a hole in my wallet I approached Leilani's, first at their second floor…read morerestaurant (Leilani's On The Beach) before heading down to the ground floor (Leilani's Beach Bar). I had a hunch which I'd prefer and followed my intuition. The more casual Beach Bar was the vibe I was feeling and its menu set the right tone. If you've wandered over after a day at the beach and want to keep things simple choose Leilani's Beach Bar. Arrive before sunset and get a seat close to where the live music will be played. As I left I was surprised to note how far other diners were from the music. Some folks prefer this but I wanted to be wrapped up in it; a seat right in front of the 3-piece band was perfect. Also perfect? The sunset view. Yes, it's probably more lovely from their upstairs counterpart, but not so different that I regretted the trade-off. Keeping things simple is a good idea here. To accompany the beer and wine at my table an order of onion rings (excellent) was shared. I enjoyed their version of a Cobb Salad and their hyped Fish Tacos ("Voted Maui's Best" supposedly) were said to be good as well. Drinks, appetizer, salad, tacos, music, sunset... That's the way I'd recommend you do Leilani's Beach Bar. There's plenty of similar places nearby (possibly from the same ownership group) and I've been to Hawaii often enough to have garnered the feeling that they're all a bit similar. In this regard, I say keep it simple and casual. Leilani's Beach Bar (no reservations accepted) does just that. I left happy that I'd chosen right.

Ambiance - outdoor restaurant with overhead coverage, live music, great for small to large parties,…read morerecommend making a reservation Service - exceptional, our server was super nice & food came out quickly Food - filet mignon was slightly more cooked than our request, taro chips was extra crispy with the poke, don't skip on the hula pie (definitely meant to be shared)
