    This was a perfect snack and share meal.

Delicious fresh pickle on top with tender meat We ate on the patio, which was a lovely spot to sit and relax after shopping

    6.22.26 UPDATE We…read moreoriginally had a disappointing experience due to slow service, limited attention from staff, and the lack of air conditioning during our visit. However, the owner took the time to respond and explain that the entire shopping center wing was experiencing cooling issues and that the restaurant was dealing with significant staffing shortages at the time. While that doesn't completely change the experience we had, I appreciate that the owner acknowledged the challenges and responded professionally rather than dismissing the feedback. One observation I would offer is that, as a customer, it was difficult to tell who was serving tables. I noticed several employees in Pint & Cork shirts moving around the restaurant, but only saw a couple of servers actively covering the dining area. It's possible some staff were assigned to bartending or other responsibilities, but from the guest perspective it gave the impression that table service was understaffed while other employees appeared unavailable. I still think there is room for improvement in the flow and logistics on the floor, but I appreciate the owner's willingness to engage with feedback and explain the circumstances. That being said, I would be willing to give the restaurant another chance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED REVIEW AFTER OWNER'S RESPONSE: 6.21.26 I appreciate the response. It's telling that you addressed the air conditioning, disputed the gender of an employee, and questioned whether I was even there, yet didn't meaningfully respond to the concerns about service, timing, attentiveness, or food quality. If a customer leaves with a poor experience, the question isn't whether they perfectly recalled every detail. The question is why they left with that impression in the first place. I suspect future readers can draw their own conclusions from both the review and the response. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Probably the most disappointing dining experience of our Hawaii trip. We specifically asked to sit indoors because we wanted a break from the Maui heat after spending the day outside. Unfortunately, we quickly realized there was no air conditioning, making the indoor seating barely any cooler than outside. The restaurant also felt severely understaffed. It took around 10 minutes just to get a Diet Coke, and every time I asked for assistance, the woman working at the register seemed to defer the request rather than help or find someone who could. Meanwhile, some employees appeared more interested in chatting than helping customers, while only one or two staff members seemed to be working the floor. I understand restaurants get busy, especially in a tourist area, but the issue wasn't just the wait--it was the feeling that customer service wasn't a priority. As for the food, it was nothing special. I ordered a steak that had a nice smoky flavor, but it arrived well done and overcooked. The rest of the meal was average at best and definitely not memorable enough to make up for the service issues. Between the lack of air conditioning, slow service, inattentive staff, and mediocre food, this was one of the few places in Hawaii where I genuinely regretted spending my money. Considering the location at The Shops at Wailea and the prices being charged, I expected a much higher level of hospitality and execution. There are far too many great dining options in Wailea to come back here.

YELP can I give 10 stars to a place that deserves it??? I've been a few times so you all know my feelings of the sensational Smash Burger so just note" BUY IT " cause it's awesome. Well, it's a double patty dripping with love with jalapeno jam and layer of melted cheese with along with sliced onion & pickle. YES, the bar pretzel is an excellent table share and super tasty. Fried chicken is another order large enough for a sharing item. Make sure you wash it all down with a MAI TAI ( MY FAV ) or one of the many craft beers brewed on site. Defiantly an island vibe place with live local hula music blasting through speakers. Seats are in outdoor seating with roof over most of it. You can feel the breeze off the ocean but feel safe from the UV RAYS that aren't crisping your skin.... I'm always greeted with a smile by the host and the staff always address's every question me or my guest has with a smile. Your not gonna regret coming to the Lāhainā Brewing Co....

    Honestly, I don't usually leave bad reviews, but this place was rough…read more The birria tacos were so greasy they were basically swimming in oil and were completely inedible. The Caesar salad was worse than a bagged salad from Safeway, and the chicken on the kale salad had the texture of rubber. The drinks were somehow even worse. Every single one we tried was disappointing. Service was pretty nonexistent. Our waitress came by once for drinks and once to drop off food, and that was about it. We would have ordered more drinks if anyone had checked on us. And the bathrooms? Absolutely disgusting. Dirty, poorly maintained, and honestly made me question the cleanliness of the rest of the place. Between the terrible food, awful drinks, lack of service, and gross bathrooms, this was one of the worst brewery experiences I've had. I left wishing we had just gone to McDonald's instead.

    The Birdcage! At first I thought that's an interesting name and when I went to the place it all…read moremakes sense!!!! Omg the love birds in the roof and surrounding trees are a must see! So many of them!! It's fun to watch them and talk to them (they do talk back!!). The vibe of this place is amazing! The birds are loud and about from 5-6ish. After 7pm it was pretty quiet but beware they will poop randomly so much sure you don't get any on you! The drinks omg we were addicted to the Bird of Prey! Over a week we had over 30 of those . Definitely recommend that drink if you like something fruity and chill! The food was amazing! Like everything was soooooo good! My favorite was the Japanese A5 Wagyu! Definitely get that if you don't mind splurging a bit! One of the best steaks I've had in my life! The prawns skewer were huge (beware it has all its body parts if that grosses you out) and they were cooked to perfection and the flavor was great! The salmon hand rolls were another level of salmon! Yummmm is all I gotta say! P.S. the hotel wailea burger is really good as well and that patty is thick! It has an interesting flavor cause it's dry aged so if you are not a fan of that then don't get that as it's a flavor! But def worth it and filling! The staff were great and helpful in suggesting items and they are quick! Do order the drinks in advance if the place is packed and everyone goes ham on those drinks! Will definitely be back next time we visit!

    Very nice server " Sage" and view at Hotel Wailea Birdcage grill…read more However I ordered the Wagu Burger ( $45) and it was not only tasteless, but downright dangerous with the amout of salt in the meat! The server was helpful and offered another option which was better but did not make up for the first offering. Bill was $175.00 which was $150.00 too much! if your going out for dinner and want n upscale experince on Maui go to Mama's or the Four Seasons where you hvea really good chance of finding some good food!
