    Chicken teriyaki plate, volcano fries, potato/Mac salad.

    Absolutely the best teriyaki we have ever had. I'm from California. We are here on vacation and wanted something to eat. We looked up this place and it looked good! The service was 10/10. The owner kept asking if we needed anything. He was very friendly and attentive. We got the volcano fries with their homemade aioli sauce 10/10. We also got their potato/Mac salad 10/10! Their chicken teriyaki bowls 10/10. Overall this place is great and would visit again!

    Teriyaki chicken and potato Mac salad. So yummy!

    Yum!! Very generous portions and the food is so fresh and tasty. I got the teriyaki chicken with white rice and a side of the potato Mac salad. Huge portions!! They use chicken breast for the teriyaki chicken which is so nice if you like a leaner option! Delicious!

    Cod and Chips

    My family and I enjoyed another delicious lunch at Maui Teriyaki recently. We enjoy both their Teriyaki and Fish & Chips. On this most recent trip, we all opted for Fish & Chips. We placed our order and snagged a table outside to enjoy our lunch. I ordered the Cod & Jus Fries, my wife had the Calamari and Garlic Fries, our oldest son had the Seared Ahi and our youngest son ordered the Cod with Volcano Fries. Portion size is plentiful and they brought the food to us outside. All the dishes were cooked just right and delicious. The staff were friendly and honest. It was nice to sit on the bench outside and in the shade, since it was a fairly warm day.

    I visited Maui Teriyaki for dinner, eager for an authentic Hawaiian "plate lunch," and ordered the chicken teriyaki. It was served in a classic rectangular paper tray lined with checkered paper, adding a nostalgic touch. The chicken was high-quality, tender, and flavorful, but the teriyaki sauce was three times sweeter than I prefer, overpowering the dish. I also got the large coleslaw, which was delightfully fresh and crunchy--a perfect non-fried side, especially after indulging in fried foods during my vacation. I recommend this spot but suggest requesting the teriyaki sauce on the side to control the sweetness. Oh, and here's the updated menu board.

    This is a cool place to go for a tasty casual meal. The poke bowl was excellent. It was flavored expertly. It was even better than the chicken teriayki. It was good. I thought the sauce was a tad too sweet. The service was excellent. I wish there was a 4.5 stars. The prices are fair and the portions are generous. I want to try the fish and chips!

    The inside was very hot, was looking forward to having a glass of wine or champagne with my Lunch but no alcohol was Sold Here. But we decided to eat here anyway, They Bring the food To the outside patio seating. The portions were small but the food was delicious, good portions for a snack or small appetites. An bit on the expensive side $40.00 with tip and 2 waters. The great thing that is close to my heart Is that they are eco friendly The utensils are wooden not plastic!!! Way to go !! Worth the price to safe the ocean !!

    I don't know how this place has such good reviews. I got the chicken teriyaki and it is maybe a thigh's worth of meat on rice with no salad in a tiny dish and very little sauce and very unflavorful. I ordered it to go and tipped very well but wasn't offered a fork or napkins so I ended up in my hotel with neither. Napkins aren't really required since there's so little sauce.

    Maui Teriyaki and Maui Fish N Chips are out of the same location/restaurant. I usually get the fish n' chips & my other half usually goes with the teriyaki. You can find this little restaurant at the Dolphin Plaza food court area right across of Koiso. It's hard to miss really. It's a small place, but they have picnic tables set-up outside for outdoor seating and more tables and chairs inside as well. You walk in and will find their menu posted on a mounted surf board right above their order counter which goes with the semi-beachy theme. We normally get the teriyaki chicken (thigh) plate and the chicken has always been moist, tender, and very flavorful, but not overpowering. Kind of hard to dry out chicken thighs, right? & let's be real, it's one of the best parts. Haha. Their fries are also a welcomed addition to the meal and would highly recommend the furikake fries. Probably some of the best fries on the island in my opinion & we've even done a whole flight of fries when going to small get togethers. The teriyaki menu itself is pretty small; chicken thigh, chicken breast, & mochiko chicken. It's a little pricey considering the servings are also on the smaller end, but it always hits the spot when we've needed something quick and delicious. Check them out!

    Chicken breast teriyaki
    Bryson G.

    Came here after searching around yelp for something to eat tonight. From the reviews this place seemed great. Took me a minute to find the spot, it's on the backside part of the dolphin shopping center...all the way in the back. Once I found it I looked over the menu and decided to order the chicken breast teriyaki. I took a seat outside (have to enjoy outdoors seating as much as possible!) and my food came in about 5 minutes. The presentation of the food looks great, the chicken stacked up on the rice with a beautiful glaze on it. Once I dug in I was pretty happy with the flavor of it as well. Honestly it's pretty much the same as any teriyaki you'd get anywhere else. Maybe I was expecting some kind of island flavor to it, but I wasn't blown away....not saying it wasn't good, it was. Next time I will try something else and see if I can get my socks blown off.

    Hands down the best food I had on the island…read more The owner greeted us, and was super kind! He helped us pick what to order -- which was phenomenal, and lets us make some substitutions since we didn't eat one part of the special offered. We got the fried cod special which came with slaw, potato/Mac salad, a drink and then we ordered a side of volcano fries. First, the cook on the cod was great. Super flaky and flavorful! The slaw and Mac salad were what I was expecting from Hawaii, truly delicious and we honestly could eat just bowls of those! The volcano fries were also good with the sauce they came with. The patio outside was great for family seating, and even better, they had an array of kids toys in side to keep my toddler busy. Wish we had more time to go back tbh. All other local food that we tried didn't compare.

    Maui Fish'n Chips hit the spot and was definitely worth the visit…read more Maui Fish'n Chips is tucked in the corner of a small plaza in Kihei, as most places seem to be. This place has a decent amount of covered seating outside, but no seating inside. The menu is simple, and you order inside. We ordered the Cod Fish with rice, Coconut shrimp, deep fried zucchini, and a side of potato mac salad. The fish and chips were easily the best thing we ate. The fish had outstanding flavor and were battered and fried perfectly. If we only ordered the fish and chips, this place would get an easy 5 stars, no questions asked. Unfortunately, the rest of the food we ate was meh. The coconut shrimp were large and had good coconut flavor, but were overcooked and a little burnt, which altered the overall flavor. But I am guessing if it wasn't burnt, it would have great. I typically love deep fried zucchini, so I was excited to try it here. If didn't meet expectations though (sad face). The zucchini slices were cut very thin, and when deep-fried, I felt like I tasted more of the fried breading than I did the actual zucchini. My wife is a big macaroni and potato salad person, and she was not impressed. She said it had too much mayo and not enough substance.... I was pleased with the service and staff! Everyone that worked there was really nice and helpful. I also appreciate all the seating outside. I also thought it was cool they had a lot of board games for kids to use while we waited for our food. Very unique and solid addition! This place gets a solid 4 stars. If they made little tweaks to the rest of their side dishes, this place could easily be one of the better places to eat in Maui.

He explained that he made the specials of the day while the regular menu was made inside the food truck. We were too full however tempted, and decided to go watch the sunset. But afterwards we wandered back to share a dish, and settled upon the beef special since we hadn't had any all trip. We had the smoked maminha tri-tip steak, Okinawa purple sweet potato, grilled maui onion and broccolini. Beautifully plated on real plates and silverware. No comparison to the so many common $21 food truck entrees and cost just a little more. The owner also is very sociable and enjoys talking about this food in a variety of languages with passers by and customers. On the far end from main entrance to the Kihei Food Oasis, or right at the other entrance, depending on how you enter. I wish we had found it earlier or we would have eaten there more than once!

The Mac salad was one of the better Mac salads we had on our trip but it was still kind of average in my opinion. There were some little crunchy bits under the shrimp that was so flavorful when mixed with the rice. The chicken musubi was a big miss for me. Too much rice and not enough sauce. The service was fast and efficient. I would recommend coming here and would gladly come back. This place is reasonably priced for what you get.
