Growing up in San Francisco, Honolulu and Sacramento, what was once a monthly celebration of Chinese food shared with family and friends on early weekends, diminished to coffee and croissants after moving to rural Maui. Finally, from recent Yelp posts, I realized that Lemongrass is offering Dim Sum on Maui! It's not a huge dumpling menu, but it has favorites that are worth seeking out. As virtually the only ones at 10:30am Sat we selected a few dim sum dishes and ordered roast duck. Food was delivered quickly and we savored the fresh dumplings. Shrimp, Pork, Chicken Feet, Sticky Rice were expertly seasoned and prepared. Even the extra large Jin Dui Sesame Balls filled with sweet bean paste were fried and served piping hot. A few we hope they'll consider offering are Fried Turnip Cake (Lo Bak Go), Taro Pastry (Wu Gok), Shanghai Soup Dumplings (Xiao Long Bao) and perhaps other baked goods like Char Siu Bao or Curry Turnovers. The restaurant quickly filled up and we'll be back more frequently. Hopefully Maui folks and Visitors will discover Lemongrass to enjoy and support their efforts because preparing these little treasures are a labor of love. read more

Service was quick and attentive, the food I selected was Chinese based flavors and cuisine- they have a nice variety. Dim sum and hot and sour soup. Both great. And missed. Very little Chinese food on Maui. Dining was clean and calm room. Plenty of space. read more

The foods we ordered wa perfect! We got the sizzling beef, whole roast duck, and fried rice. The portion was big and our server was so nice to us! The place was quiet and had a lot of space. Although this place is expensive. Everything is expensive now. read more

They have had dim sum on the lunch menu daily for almost a month now. IYKYK About the only thing you can't get is baked manapua. All the steamed items like shrimp dumplings, pork hash (siu mai), chicken feet, jasmine sticky rice (joong), steamed manapua, etc. are all on the menu. read more

I've had Mongolian beef at many Asian restaurants as it's one of my go to meals, but the Mongolian beef at Maui Lemongrass is so so so good. Similar favor but so much brighter and complex. We kept stopping during the meal to say this is so good. Staff very friendly and the owner keeping quality perfect and restaurant clean read more

Was in Maui for a business trip and we came here for a quick informal lunch. Our server was very friendly and nice and the place was kept very clean. I ordered a beef and tofu. It was a little bit sweet for my taste, but I still ate every last bit. I chose it with the lo mein which is a nice option to have for the plate. The portions were large too! This is a great local place if you're craving some chinese food. read more

Our party of 8 eat a lot in LA Chinatowns & San Gabriel Valley. Lemongrass is our go to place when in Maui. They are Toisan

Great food, good customer service, nice restaurant. My favorite was the Basil Chicken. The first time i ate it, my entire family loved it and vowed to return. Came back twice and both times the basil chicken was bland, not the same as the first time i ate it. I will try one more time to see if they get it right, if not, i will have to find another menu item cause overall still a great place to eat. Now they do dim sum. Tried some today and it was good. Maui needs a good dim sum place and I hope they add rice cake. Highly recommend. read more

Food was terrible, had a bad stomach ache after eating there. It took a long time before we received our foo. It has a funky smell and the shh mai had a strange taste and texture. I normally do not add hot mustard and shoyu but I had to. Our first visit was similar, until we had gone again with a friend and it was great. Di Chinese new year we thought lunch there. Bad choice. Never return. High prices and bad food. read more

Foods taste so delicious and the staff so friendly and cares.It's nice place to come and really clean,highly recommend everyone to come

"I absolutely recommend this place! It's perfect for families or anyone looking for super friendly staff and absolutely amazing food. The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is fantastic, and every bite is incredible!" read more

Good food, friendly staff, and a great ambiance that makes the experience enjoyable!!!

First spot we came to when we arrived in Maui. Really good food. Small portions, loved their shrimp fried rice

I'll take Affordable Asian food for $XX dollars, Alex. If you're looking for a sit down Asian spot with full service in Kahului that won't break the bank this place will do it. It's Chinese/Southeast Asian and then some... so it's hard to box into any one category but I appreciate the value this place offers plus the food comes out quick. In the old Dennys spot, parking is easy, nothing fancy, but it's nice to have a casual restaurant like this in town. read more

Absolutely delicious! The Tom yum gung soup as excellent! It wasn't the normal Tom yum that you experience from traditional Thai restaurants. It had some extra spices in there that gave it a wonderful kick. I also ordered the volcano shrimp. Beware... it's a LOT of food so either come hungry or be ready to share or take some home. To drink had water and Vietnamese iced coffee... also exquisite. The service was friendly and the food came out within reasonable time. read more

Gather 'round the table and let me show you how to Yelp. Like a secret shopper, Lemongrass seemed to pop out of nowhere, unannounced and ready to work. A friend texted that something opened or was about to open in Kele Center. After a quick search on social media, there they were. I texted another friend who's also "in-the-know", and she reported hearing an ad on the radio. Ask anyone in the central valley what we lack aside from restaurants in general, are Chinese restaurants. All of the beloved, legit places closed years ago (Golden Jade, Ming Yuen, Canton Chef, Wing Sing, Golden Palace, Dragon Dragon). ATMOSPHERE: They've taken over the former Poi By The Pound (and Denny's before that) spot. The layout is the same as before, just cleaned up. Indoor seating only, simple decor, with big windows for an airy feel. Free parking is plentiful. MENU: A handful of Thai selections but mostly Chinese soups, noodles, seafood, poultry, meats and rice dishes. Kid's menu. No alcohol. FOOD: Hot & Sour Soup - $5.00 (bowl-sized) The only downfall of this was a lack of salt. Everything else was textbook - the veggies, thicker gravy texture, heat and tanginess. Egg Drop Soup - $4.00 (bowl-sized) Similar to the hot & sour soup, the dish simply lacked salt. Pan Fried Dumpling - $12.00 (6 pcs.) Deep-fried and stuffed with pork, they were mainstream. The included garlicky soy-based dipping sauce was definitely required. Chicken Lettuce - $14.00 AKA lettuce wraps. Half a head of iceberg, sweet-savory drizzle sauce and minced chicken mixture made for a delish dish. Black Bean Chicken - $18.00 Kudos that the ratio of chicken outnumbered the zucchini, onions and red & green peppers! Spot-on black bean and savory flavors. Beef Broccoli - $24.00 Dark brown gravy, perfectly-cooked broccoli and tender strips of beef made for the best BB on the rock! The only negative was the high price and average portion size. Shrimp Fried Rice - $19.00 The dish looked so promising with plump shrimp, scrambled egg, peas and carrots but it fell flat in terms of flavor, or lack thereof. On one hand, it's a great side dish to their flavorful entrees. On the other hand, if it's your main dish, you'll need to doctor it up with salt or better yet, shoyu, oyster sauce and dashi, but that'll mean cooking it again which defeats the purpose of takeout. SERVICE: I phoned in my order to a friendly guy and was quoted a 25-minute wait. I arrived to an empty eatery at 4:45pm on a Saturday afternoon. One of my dishes was still being prepared, so I had a short not even 5-minute wait but that gave me time to look around, snap a few pics and made small talk with the guy who took my order. Turns out the owners are local and had a restaurant in Florida. TIP: Two servings of steamed white rice came with the order. OVERALL: It's not Chinatown-level but I appreciate the baby steps. What started out as a 3-star review morphed into a 4 as their effort of bringing Chinese cuisine back to Kahului needs to be recognized. read more

Popped in by myself for a quick bite to eat while Christmas shopping on a Friday night. I wanted a treat and to try out a new restaurant and saw the green sign glowing in the dark as I drove by enticing me in. The restaurant was quite empty when I arrived just after 6pm'ish which surprised me, and they seemed a little disconcerted that I was eating alone initially. However once I put my order in and started to eat they seemed to be more accepting and I had 4 different staff check in on me as they walked by, making sure I had everything I needed. So, great customer service, and I noticed the serving staff knew quite a few of their customers which is always a good sign of repeat diners. A few more customers arrived during my visit and they seemed to be larger family groups sharing plates. The restaurant is large and set up for groups and feels airy and open with large windows and booths lining the sides. I chose the Basil Shrimp, less heat that I expected as it had a chilli pepper sign beside it on the menu and the basil wasn't strong, however it was delicious with plenty of tail on shrimp and veggies, and a good dark gravy. Only white rice was available and it was fluffy and hot. I wanted to try their Tom Yum but it only came in a larger 2 person size and I couldn't order it for a single serve which is a great pity. They serve alcohol, at least I know they serve beers as a table of folks were drinking them. Unfortunately they don't offer Kamaaina rates which means I won't be returning often. My meal of rice and Basil Shrimp came to a total of $33 which is pricey. I think this restaurant deserves more customers than it had on a Friday night, but it might be because I was there at 6pm instead of 7pm. read more

Newest Asian cuisine restaurant on Maui! Located near the airport at the old Poi By The Pound. Ample parking upfront. Walked in on a Friday night with my family (4 adults, 1 baby) at about 6:15p and we're seated right away. Employees were welcoming and and friendly. Our server "auntie" was great! Very attentive. Gave us time to look over the menu. Checked in on us and refilled our waters frequently. Lots of tables available for family style dining. Restaurant was a little warm. Lots of food options! We ordered the Peking spareribs - tasty, wouldn't order again Sweet and sour pork - very tasty! Crispy pork, light sauce Lemongrass chicken - wish there was more lemongrass Chicken crispy noodles - noodles are thin style - but crispy. do not expect cake noodle Shrimp egg foo young - my favorite dish! 10/10 Side order of fries - crispy and hot Bill came out to about $115 for all our dishes and fed our family of 4 well, with a plate of leftovers! Will be back again. read more

Fantastic staff and gave us great recommendations like their Mongolian Beef. We also had to order our go-to Bbq pork friend rice. We had both with medium spice and they were incredibly flavorful- the best Chinese I've had in many years. We will return when next in Maui! So good and convenient before heading to the airport. read more

Been coming here since it open. It's difficult to find a good Chinese restaurant especially living in San Francisco & going to Chinatown & clement st ( the 2nd Chinatown in SF). Go where it is authentic like steam fish, potstickers, delicious duck & steam pork buns. Service is very good & attentive to your needs making sure your water glass is filled. The owner Amy welcomes you with a smile & inquires how was the food. Good customer service. Always take my family & friends here when they are visiting Maui. Blessings & Aloha Maui Lemongrass read more

I have been here for dinner service a few times. This trip however I went for lunch I was in Kahului running some errands and wanted a nice sit down lunch. Then I remembered that Lemongrass has lunch. So I figure hey I'm gonna try it out. When I got there they had people at a few tables but not as busy as the times I have gone for dinner. I must say I really enjoyed my lunch. I had the lo mein, fried rice and general chicken. The portions were very good and the food tasted great. In fact I haven't had one bad dish from them. The dinner menu is good if you have several people because it is family style or if you're really hungry. I like how they have the restaurant decorated. Simple yet nice. My family and I have enjoyed several meals here and I enjoyed my lunch. So I would definetly recommend and it's nice to have a Chinese restaurant. Maui could definetly use a few. read more

It's the perfect place to satisfy your Chinese food cravings. read more

Four of us dined on Friday 1/2/26. They forgot part of our order, but charged us for it and did not tell us there was an additional charge for using a credit card. The food was average. The service was good. I would not return. read more

Support local! We finally came to check this place out recently and loved it. The prices are higher than we expected, but we understand that cost of running a restaurant in Maui has to be managed accordingly. The portions were plentiful and we all got to order a variety of dishes that we all enjoyed. It's located next to the Acura dealership in town, so there's plenty of parking out front. We will be back to try more food out soon! read more

Was a bit confused and disappointed by their food offering. Their "Thai" dishes are definitely not Thai. We ordered the Chef special Basil chicken and Chef special Thai Curry (vegetarian) and neither came out tasting like Thai...more like Chinese with a heavy Hosin sauce base. read more

Excellent food, large portions, friendly staff, welcoming hostess. Quick with takeout orders.

I was charged $500 for the use of a small room for 3 hrs. I was originally told the $500 was a deposit to reserve the room and that it would be reversed on the night of the party as long as I spent $1000 or more On the night of the party Mae said the $500 was a charge for the room. With 40 guests in attendance, I did not want to make a scene, so I paid what she said I owed. That night, going forward, I vowed never to go there again! read more
