Back after 4 years to our happy place (Hawaii and here!). The hits still hit and I am happy to add…read morea few more! Okonomayki is still delish! Musubi - didn't have spam but pork rolled over the rice with a teriyaki glaze. One of the best variations I've had!! The kids couldn't get enough of it. Kamameshi - slow cooked rice casserole (like Chinese clay pot rice). Infused the rice with an amazing smoky flavor. I had octopus for protein which I enjoyed but my kids weren't able to appreciate it (they like it grilled). Miso butter fish - classic black cod dish. Did not disappoint! Scallop sashimi - very fresh and tasted like butter

They also didn't have another item we wanted most likely because it was a couple hours before closing, so it another disappointment but the food we did end up getting was still amazing. The service was great anyways, and I highly recommend the beef sukiyaki!! Peach and grape chu-his were also really yummy and pretty dangerous as they were on the sweeter side so it's easy to drink! We also got the miso butter cod fish and kimchi cucumber which were both great

Incredible sushi…read more Me and my wife had the pleasure of dining here on a trip to Maui one night. Definitely pleasantly surprised. Flavors were intense, fish was fresh. Every roll hit the mark. Service was top-notch and the cozy vibe was perfect. We'll be back!

I don't need pretentious high priced dinners when I'm in Maui, I'm there to chill. That is why I…read morelove Miso Phat, you bring your own beer or wine (Conveniently there is a convenience store with lots of those options just a few doors down.) My wife doesn't enjoy sushi, but her baked fish was amazing and she was more than happy! Not pictured was a fresh, off menu roll I also enjoyed that was a daily special. But the TNT roll was amazing as well!

We ordered drinks and gyoza (sorry - dug I so quickly I forgot to snap a pic). Before we knew it, here came our generous bowls of piping hot ramen. And once we 3 started in, it was nothing but slurping "mmmMMMmmms" for a good while. Super satisfied, full bellies for sure. This spot has a good amount of seating but fills up quickly. There are a few booths and bench/chair seating, along with tables in the middle. There is a bar to sit at as well. Super cool anime vibe here as well!

Servers were kind however yes there is a delay in service and check in check out which is not that big of a deal just don't eat here if you are in a rush. We ordered: Fried rice 2/10 The fried rice had no flavor very bland Karaage 4/10 Karaage was decent but not great Tajima Red Ramen 7/10 Ramen noodles were delicious the broth was also so flavorful and robust however the protein in this soup is one small piece of pork that's mostly just fat. I would not order this specific ramen here again. Carnitas ramen 10/10 This was probably the best thing we ordered!

Amazing mom and pop sushi spot in Maui!…read more I first came to this place years ago when my sister brought me here. Had to come back and I was not disappointed. I kept forgetting to make reservations a month in advance and called them on a Wednesday to see if there was any openings for two. Luckily, there was a 7:30pm spot for Friday . Pro tip: the nigiri comes in two. We completely forgot about that and double ordered everything. Luckily, we finished everything. Sushi was fresh and on point. The chef and staff were very friendly. We loved the entire experience. The nigiri were huge in fish cuts, and small in rice so it was perfect since we over ordered. Highly recommend this spot if you are in Maui. Please call ahead to make reservations as they do not allow walk ins. The place only hold 16 seats.

The $65 12 piece omakase was delicious and one of the best we had ever had. I knocked off one star for price, the miso soup was not included and service was friendly but not the most attentive. Would go back and do recommend while staying in Maui!

A wonderful five-star experience at Nobu at the Grand Wailea. We sat at the sushi bar, which made…read morethe evening even more special. Our server, Kelly, was extremely knowledgeable and helped guide us through the menu and sake options. Our sushi chef, Hong, was exceptional. She was warm and engaging, explained the fish when we had questions, and let us know which sauces best complemented her creations, which made the experience feel very personal. The sake selection was also excellent. We even tried the "musical" sake, which had Bach playing while it aged and during its shipment from Japan to the mainland--such a fun and memorable detail. I do agree with the other reviewer that the menu could have more detail in order to know the specifics of the rolls. All in all, it was a lovely five-star experience. Highly recommend.

Each roll was beautifully prepared--fresh, simple, and full of flavor. The space is small and intimate, with limited table and bar seating, making it best suited for couples or small groups rather than larger parties. An understated, hidden gem that delivers excellent sushi in a relaxed, casual setting.

We also enjoyed the rainbow roll, unagi role, shrimp tempura roll, baked California roll, beef curry, unagu donburi, tako sunomono, and tako poke. It was plenty for the four of us and we took some of our sushi home. They have some new hot items since our last visit. Chicken cutlet with gravy and hurricane chicken. You can bring your own booze(market just a few doors down). They offer hot tea and soda. Loved our lunch. Highly recommend!

Pilina is def a hidden gem that's needs to have their moment!…read more Located in the fairmont hotel, Pilina is a bar/cocktail style restaurant but with surprisingly amazing seafood and sushi!! Ambiance: when arriving, we are welcomed with live music & seating is of first come, first serve basis but we were lucky enough to find a comfortable booth area that overlooks the view! Service: the servers were quick & so friendly. They were helpful & had warm conversations that never felt forced! Food: TOP TIER!! I cannot recommend enough!! We ordered tons of food (see pics) and everything was so fresh and delicious. Ended the night with the chocolate bars ($12) but I would really just focus on the sushi/sashimi/seafood!! If you are looking for a higher end sushi restaurant, I would choose Pilina over Nobu or any of those basic sushi places any day

Each experience was equally tasty! Would definitely recommend this place! Go early and just make reservations. It goes quicker. Seems to be a local Kihea favorite!
