We stayed at the Wailea beach resort and came here for lunch. The view is superb and having lunch with the ocean view is fantastic. The server was greeted us warmly and took us to the table with the view. The menu has a great variety of choices. The special of the day/catch of the day is mahi mahi. I ordered the mahi mahi taco with chips and salsa. My boyfriend ordered the mahi filet sandwich with a side salad. For dessert, we had the chocolate Haupia pie. It was a very satisfying lunch after we landed.
We're staying at the resort and came by for dinner. The waitress was very friendly. We sat by the fire pit which was super cozy. The garlic furikake bread kimchi was a great starter. The Molokai banana curry was very color and a lot of food! My husband got the huli chicken and enjoyed it.
Valentine's Day was truly an enchanting experience at Kapa Bar and Grill! Nestled within the stunning Wailea Beach Resort, this hidden gem offered us breathtaking ocean views that created the perfect romantic setting for our evening together. The atmosphere was electric, and every moment felt like a delightful escape with my love. We treated ourselves to an unforgettable culinary adventure, savoring every delicious bite of: - Miso Cacio e Pepe Lobster & Scallop Pasta - Kona Lobster - Brown Butter Lobster Steamed Buns - Wailea Old Fashioned - Strawberries and Cream Baked Alaska Oh my goodness, the Kona lobster was an absolute showstopper! The rich black bean sauce took its flavors to another level, and we couldn't help but wish we had ordered two! And let's not forget the incredible garlic and lap cheong fried rice--an epic addition to our feast! Each dish was a delightful revelation. The Miso Cacio e Pepe Lobster & Scallop Pasta and the Brown Butter Lobster Steamed Buns beautifully complemented the Kona lobster. Both were bursting with flavor and pure deliciousness! We left wanting more and can't wait to indulge in these dishes again on our next visit! Delicious food and a very romantic dinner.. I'm a fan and plan to dine here soon on my next visit to Maui
Solid lunch spot on the Wailea strip. We always go a few times. The Poke plate is really good as is the Turkey Club. The staff is always nice and attentive. The location is really nice too. It's right behind the pool so people watching is fun. There is usually a DJ at lunch time but it's not too loud or energetic which is cool.
Always a nice treat to eat at KAPA! I love the view sitting right next to the ocean. Great chef. Outstanding wait staff and even live music which always adds so much to the whole experience!
3.5 stars rounded up: You generally can't expect much from any resort restaurant. It's there for convenience (poolside is extra convenient) and the resort coupons for two complimentary drinks will draw you in. The service was very accommodating and open space concept with views towards the pool was great. Resort prices for food are expected. Personally I prefer food off resort as the menu isn't too special with any unique offerings, but I'll say the burger didn't disappoint with the char grilled flavor. Note they close a bit too early IMO at 8:00PM.
Great views. Good service. But the food is overly priced and most likely just pre-prepared foods that are heated, fried, or easy to cook. This is the bar closest to one of the pools so you can drink at the bar and watch the sunset. We made reservations for dinner but you really don't need it unless it's super busy tourist season. Otherwise, you can order online and eat at the pool. The menu is the same. We ordered: Poke Bowl - Beautifully plated and that's about it. The poke is subpar. Nothing Hawaiian about it except for the ingredients. Kapa Burger - The burger is probably the best thing you can get for your money. Huge however it had a funky blue cheese taste. Fish of the Day - The fish was Mahi Mahi today. It had a funky taste to it. It was prepared with a sauce that was overly salty and had a packaged taste to it. It didn't come with the veggies listed on the menu and I had to ask about it. (They cooked and brought it out separately. The mushrooms with slimy and tasted sour.) Service: I do like that our server was attentive to my shellfish allergy and asking me about cross contamination.
Such a beautiful view of the ocean from this restaurant! It is amazing that it was as empty as it was. If you come here, they will validate your valet parking... Definitely I think that more people should be here. The food was great, the service was exceptional, Highly recommend!
The location of this restaurant was so close to our room, the pool, and views of the ocean/sunset. Our server, Brenda, was so sweet. Very attentive and personable. Our food was out quickly. Food was great; my chicken was tender and juicy. The vegetables and rice were good too! However, a little overpriced (this is to be expected at any resort restaurant you will be dining at in Maui). All in all, a good experience.
We were looking for a place to eat with a view, and this did not disappoint. Rene, our server, was very nice, seated us promptly, took our orders, and we had our food on the table within 20 minutes of arriving. I had the root salad because I love beets and I'm always looking for a great one and it was very good. My husband had a burger and really enjoyed it. I loved their signature Mai Tai, which was not too sweet and had a really balanced taste. So darn good. Since we're here celebrating our 5 year anniversary and my birthday, we ended the meal with a nice slice of chocolate cake and ice cream on the house, of course. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. You'll be so glad you did.
This place is so nice! The aesthetics are modern, super nice, but still casual! Easy to make reservations on the website. And the service! Cynthia is so phenomenal! She answered every silly to serious question I had! She made sure the food came out perfect! I requested a dish that was veg friendly but silly me is allergic to peanuts and she made sure they could accommodate me and everything! My uncle had a plain burger with cheese, and he said it was the best burger on the island!!! 10/10 I recommend for a very chill, casual, but still 5 star service and food kind of night! Thank you so much for a great welcome and amazing food!
Good food beautiful view and servers full of aloha! Love going here and you will too! Happy eating!
I did not eat in the main restaurant but ordered food at the pool several times during my stay. One afternoon, I had a pina colada. A bit pricey but tasty. I got a burger and fries another day for lunch. Very tasty burger. Good toppings. Crisp fries. Another day, I had an afternoon snack. I ordered the shrimp tacos. These were very flavorful. Loved the pineapple salsa on top. A bit messy to eat but very tasty overall. Waitress as attentive as she could be covering several pools. read more
Can't say enough positiveness about the poolside grub KAPA Bar & Grill served me in my ocean cabana @ Marriott over my holiday. I'd start my morning with the slice fresh fruit platter and FYI the papaya was fresh & delicious. Also I enjoyed coconut prawns which were flavorful and was accompanied by 2 tasty sauces. However the cheeseburger & fries were simply a winner. Fresh Maui beef slaughtered & grill to my enjoyment. OMG the bun wasn't one of those Costco buns it was a Brioche bun and yes it enhanced the flavors beyond what a burger should taste like. It's a FRANK B THUMBS Up award for outstanding burgers. Let's face it a burger & view of Pacific Ocean would make anyone happy but I loved it. Thanks KAPA Bar & Grill for the enhancement of my vacation. read more

We just had apps but it was FABULOUS. We had the coconut shrimp and it was the best i've ever had. Hand battered and the sauce is to die for. The Hawaiian sweet rolls had this super unique kimchee aioli that we loved. We sat outside and watched the sunset so our atmosphere was PERFECT. Our server was fabulous. No complaints!! read more

First day on Maui I went to the pool. I ordered the Ahu Poke Bowl and looked like a modern art masterpiece. Fresh fish marinated in shoyu over rice, with pickled vegetables. After taking my first bite I almost jumped out of my chair with my head about to explode from flavor overload, This was very fresh and a perfect size for me. It was a bit pricey but I believe it was worth the price to have at least one time while on vacation. read more

We had the most incredible sunset dinner at Kapa. Friends in town and looking for a place that offered spectacular views and accommodations for keiki as well as adults. Kapa did not disappoint. Our server, Rachelle, was so friendly and attentive. The live music added to the whole experience. I highly recommend the Resort Mai Tai and the ceviche! We will DEFINITELY be back again! Thank you! read more
I was visiting with family and we were looking for a nice beach spot to get cocktails and we found KAPA. As soon as we sat down Erik was there to greet us. He was super nice and helped us make our drink decisions. The view was great and service was good but for a single cocktail it was $22. Ouch. It was all just a little pricy but the view and good company was worth it :) read more

Food was great service was amazing. I reserved the table for me and my wife and they gave me two seat seats on the balcony facing the sunset for a beautiful date. read more
Staying at the Wailea beach resort and didn't feel like driving out again to eat last night. Just decided to eat on site and found this place. Didn't have high expectations since our goal was to also redeem our free mai thai from the hotel. Ordered the grass fed burger , onion rings and ahi tuna rolls. To my surprise the food was actually pretty good ! Burger was cooked nicely. Onion ring nice and fresh and crunchy. Sushi roll was also quite flavorful. Thought the combination of the ahi tuna along with the masago was a refreshing touch. Definitely recommend this place If you are nearby. The my thai was actually pretty good. Service above standard. read more
Located near the pool at the Wailea Beach Resort overlooking the ocean that has great views all around. While staying at the resort we dined here as soon as we checked in cause we didn't want to look for another place to eat and a few days later we had a late lunch after a day-trip. The food is pretty good but it has a small menu, small portions and high prices. I really enjoyed the poke bowl that I ordered. It was fresh and very flavorful. The Korean chicken wings were very delicious and we finished it all within minutes but again 6 wings for around $20 ... The sushi rolls were amazing, and so was the burger. I'm glad we tried this place out but I can't imagine eating here every day for seven days. It's pricey. They have delicious cocktails again for $20 and local draft beer which my husband really enjoyed. go and try it out, you won't be disappointed. The views alone is worth the trip. read more
Don't worry about people who aren't happy for you. They probably are not happy for themselves either. The staff at KAPA certainly want to make you happy. This is probably the best venue to dine at the resort. It overlooks the pool and offers some of the best dishes to devour. I believe the in room service is out of this kitchen. Love that every where we go Maui Brewing is the go to beer on tap. After a long flight, we ended up ordering the ahi poke that came with taro chips, the coconut shrimp are colossal, and the ahi tacos were pretty yum. Service is pretty quick and fast. Apparently there's TV to catch games if you're inclined to ignore the ocean views. Personally you should do things that make you forget to check your phone or watch TV. Get outside. It's your play station. read more
COVID EDITION I love that Kapa has an indoor outdoor feel. They were so sweet to accommodate our VERY large group with less than 24 hours notice, even when we continued to add to the group. They had us sit at a few large tables in the back away from the other patrons- which I loved and I'm sure other appreciated since we were pretty loud. They took such great care of us and were willing to split the checks by table. The food and drinks were amazing. And they even surprised the bride and groom we were celebrating with with dessert. Such a great experience read more
With how popping Maui is right now, it was very difficult to get a reservation anywhere. Our usual spots were booked weeks out & my parents were looking for a place for their anniversary. We booked this one as we were game to try someplace new. Located in the Wailea Marrriott, this is a more casual spot out by the pool . They don't do paper menus, as you are given a QR code to scan. That was totally fine, however there were like 7 pages & you could only order off around 4 of them. They also have a food truck & that menu was also on there, which makes things a bit confusing. There is also a menu online, but that isn't updated, so things we wanted on there were no longer available. I was struggling to find something I wanted to eat on the menu. I ended up going with the tomato bisque with sour dough grilled cheese, & my parents got the wagyu burger, grilled chicken & bacon sandwich & we shred the spicy chicken wings. Everything was good, but nothing special. Honestly for those prices though, I expected better. However, our server Zach probably made the night. We loved his quirky personality & enthusiasm. Not sure if we'd go back, but glad we gave it a shot. read more

On a staycation from Oahu to wailea beach resort Maui. and It's actually been a while since I went to a restaurant and I thought everything tasted good ! I got the signature kapa burger which I thought would be very basic nothing special and was blown away I stick to medium rare and it was cooked to perfection the fresh butter lettuce ,Maui onions and the perfectly melted cheese. I got mine with a salad because the burgers are massive ! The salad came with a dressing and I am kicking myself for not asking what it was because I wanted a whole salad after trying it ! The mock-tails (hala Alua) were yummy and the Korean fried chicken was outstanding , small point to make ( the fresh pickles it came with were my favorite ) my kids ate ALL their food burgers and grilled cheese and fries which they said were fresh . Perfect for kids and not too pricey ! The views and service were great and our reservation was right on time . So amazing to be able to go in and out with a large party! Absolutely amazing we will be back ! read more

Kapa Grill is the outstanding restaurant bar located at one of the gorgeous pools at the Wailea Beach Resort - A must visit while you are staying at the resort (or even if you're not.. it's worth the trip). Who doesn't love a good pool bar?! But an awesome pool bar with a stunning pool and ocean view - Score! If you are not staying at the resort, there is a large parking garage as you enter the facilities with pay by hour parking - And if you'd like, the resort also offers valet parking. The customer service at Kapa is on point and the team should be celebrated - Top notch, A+ service! We ate and had drinks at Kapa several times throughout our visit and from the hostesses, the waitstaff as well as the bartenders.. they were so warm, welcoming, beyond friendly and truly made us enjoy our visit that much more. What else are you going to do at the pool but swim, sunbathe and enjoy some cocktails - And I love that the team here remembered our names, room number and our drink of choice {especially given how busy this place gets and how many people they see each day) - Kudos! When you're lounging by the pool, you can't go wrong with Mai Tai's, Frozen Pina Colada's or a Crisp, Cool Beer - And boy, did we have plenty of these! Beyond the delightful and tasty drinks, the food is amazingly delicious! The Hubs and I like to share plates - This way you get to try more - So that's exactly what we did! The Spicy Edamame is a great way to start - Perfectly charred Edamame sautéed with Garlic and Fresno Chili's - What a great Combo! We also decided to spilt the Herb Chicken & Bacon Sandwich - Perfectly cooked Herbed Chicken topped with Bacon, Provolone Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado and Garlic Aioli all on a Brioche Bun. I'm not sure what it is about this Sammie but this is the Best Darn Chicken Sandwich I've ever had - From the moment we were done, I was immediately craving it again and knew I had to have it again before we left the resort. You can customize any way you'd like and add Fries or a Side Salad with your dish - We opted for the Side Salad - And the Dressing served with the Salad is Heavenly - I would buy a big batch if this stuff was bottled up. Kapa Grill - Ahh.. Can't wait to return to Maui and relax by the pool with some amazing cocktails and phenomenal food! When ya opening a spot in San Diego.. I need a good staycation?! read more
