Though I don't get to go as often as I like, I was able to dine recently and noticed the menu changes. The new mushroom pasta dish was a winner! Bread and dips appetizer was tasty, but we had way more dip than bread. Growing up in Indiana, we were taught to appreciate a good portion of bread. It was okay though because we saved the dips to dip our pizza crust in. I was SO sad that the old braised pork pizza is gone. I lived for that spicy red sauce and lilikoi butter combo! My family and I were all looking forward to it and were a little underwhelmed by the new, more basic pork pizza option. I completely understand that menus change, and I actually enjoy trying new things. BUT... please bring it back. And the potato!! The new chicken dish was a satisfactory replacement for the duck that my husband loved, and I don't want to be that person, however... I think it would be so much better with a small salad like the duck used to have, and like the other fish entrée includes. Maybe it's my new fit girl perspective, but I do love a little something green on the plate. It needs that freshness to balance out all that salt, and the basic presentation is almost too simple for a chicken plate over $40. Lastly, PLEASE find a way to serve espresso at dinner?! The sign outside the building explicitly lists "pizza, gelato, espresso." It's a bummer to me and many others who are hoping to enjoy an espresso at the end of a lovely Italian-style meal, only to be let down with very little explanation as to why this is not an offering. But, as always, we loved our overall experience. The staff is genuine and seems to truly care about the food and beverages they serve. Just please bring back the pork pizza how it used to be, and let me have an espresso shot with my olive oil gelato... please :-)

The sandwiches were great, eggs not overcooked, cheese melted, bacon cooked well, not soggy. Can't wait to go back!

Tell me you don't want me to be here without actually saying, "I don't want you here."…read more We've been coming to Grandmas for over 10 years, and it's always been one of those comfy, cozy places that just feels good. This visit felt really different. Today we brought family visiting from off-island after a walk on Thompson Road. We decided to stay and dine in instead of taking it to go. Looking back... maybe takeout would've been the better option. Ugh. I honestly hate writing this. The only reason I am is because I'm hoping someone from the Grandmas team reads this and actually cares enough to make some changes. If you don't know, you can't grow. Today our experience looked like this: * Watching several people get served after us even though we ordered first. Waiting for almost 30 minutes. * Our order getting mixed up and handed to the wrong person * Confusion about what muffins were available... okay fine, I'll take a blueberry muffin. Then halfway through eating it, I found a hair baked into it * Ordering potatoes without onions because of an allergy, having it made wrong twice, and needing it redone * Noticing the restaurant itself looked like it could use a deep cleaning, including ceiling fans with layers of dust And maybe this was just an off day, but the staff vibe felt... off too. Disconnected. Kind of cliquey. Like everyone seemed more interested in talking amongst themselves than serving guests. The warm, welcoming feeling Grandmas always had just didn't feel like it was there today. As a customer, I honestly felt like I was intruding or inconveniencing the staff just by being there, and that's a really strange feeling in a place we've loved for so long. That's honestly the part that made me the most disappointed. We've loved Grandmas for years, which is why this was tough. After reading several other reviews, it seems others may have had similar experiences too. I really hope things improve and staff morale lifts, because as customers, we feel it. Mahalo for reading. I truly hope this helps and leads to positive changes.

Lunch menu: We came to spoon and key for several sandwiches during our stay in the Wailea area…read more We had Gino's dakine and the surfalotta for two days. The sandwiches are top notch! Perfect construction of bread, spreads, and meats. It beat the heck out of eating food at our hotel. This is the Perfect spot to get a sandwich on the go and hang by the beach. The sandwiches were filling enough for me and the spouse to share. Dinner: We also came for dinner in person. I had high hopes for the smash burger based on their sandwiches ... unfortunately it fell flat. It wasn't the best burger I've ever had. The pickle was over powering. We also ordered the appetizer octopus, kampachi, and grilled shrimp which all were really good. Check this place out because I hope they stick around the next time I'm visiting Maui.

We went June 28 when they opened at 8 am. We ordered hash breakfast and Bloody Marys. The food was…read morefresh and tasty, ample portion at breakfast. But only one egg. I had the hash with ham. My husband had the same hash with grilled ahi (very salty) . They tell you the egg on the hash is a runny sous vide- I think she said. I thought it would be ok, like ramen, ....Runny was right, the white of the egg was more translucent than opaque. Specify more cooked egg if this raw thing is not for you. Service was with a smile, but we were half finished with our breakfast before the Bloody Marys showed up. Patio is nice and airy with some view across the blue course and toward Molokini. In the treetops. So why a rate of 3? It's the details- the server commented on delayed drinks very dismissively, and their outdoor speaker was on too loud to the point it reverberated with some static, definitely blown out. I asked to please turn it down or off as it was not adding to the experience. Got a very strange look and maybe it was turned down a fraction about 10 minutes later. Traffic noise was significant but we were sitting outside next to the road. Expected. But to compete with the music and traffic was not our cup of tea. This breakfast as described was $95. You decide.

It was a perfect meal, as always. We love the curry chicken salad, so the next day we ordered one of those to go for our evening meal at the condo. Great food, great location, friendly staff. We'll be back for sure.

Unsure , I didn't try the other homemade one towards Lahaina . Definitely visit if you are around.

It wasn't great but adequate and we were grateful that they had the option. The garden salad was fresh and sizable but the tropical-style vinaigrette didn't quite match with the red-sauce pasta and a more traditional, savory, Italian dressing would have been better. The baked goods in the front glass case looked delicious and high-quality. They even had cannoli which was very hard to pass up. We'll definitely plan a return visit the next time we're in town.
