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!

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!

Cod and Chips
Lon H.

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 !!

Chicken Teriyaki

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.

Nalu's South Shore Grill is a must-visit breakfast spot in Maui! If you love a good Loco Moco,…read moretrust me when I say their Classic Loco Moco was the BEST I've ever had. It's a simple Hawaiian comfort-food classic, but the quality of the ingredients really takes it to another level. The dish features a natural, grass-fed, certified Black Angus beef patty over organic jasmine brown rice, topped with two free-range eggs cooked your way and rich mushroom-onion gravy, served with Nalu's mac salad. Everything comes together beautifully, from the juicy beef patty to the savory gravy and perfectly cooked eggs. It's hearty, satisfying, and packed with flavor. I especially appreciate the focus on quality ingredients. My husband wasn't particularly hungry, so he went with the Maui Fruit Bowl, and it was such a refreshing alternative! Seasonal fresh fruit, granola, toasted coconut, Greek yogurt, and honey, served with gluten-free banana bread. The fruit was incredibly fresh, and the bowl felt light and refreshing -- a lovely balance to my hearty Loco Moco. It's a great option if you're in the mood for something lighter for breakfast. The ordering process is casual and easy: place your order at the hostess stand, find a table, put your table number marker out, and the food is brought directly to you. It's a relaxed setup that makes breakfast convenient without sacrificing the dining experience. Overall, Nalu's really impressed me with its quality ingredients, delicious Hawaiian breakfast classics, and fresh, lighter options. Whether you're craving an indulgent Loco Moco or a refreshing fruit bowl, there's something for everyone. Come for the Loco Moco -- you won't regret it!

The tortillas are packed with fish; you can easily make two tacos out of one. Absolutely a must‑try. Poke Nachos The Poke Nachos were great. We ordered the spicy poke with a mayo base. The chips were solid, though the dish could use some jalapeño or serrano to kick up the heat. Tiger Sauce Their homemade tiger sauce is sweet, spicy, and slightly vinegary--really tasty. Drinks They serve Kona Brewing Co. on tap. The Lemongrass Luau is excellent.

We got one of each ($22 each) and I preferred the traditional as it was saltier and had more flavor. I'm used to seeing more than just two flavors but it's fine. What I didn't like was that the rice in my bowl was hard like it had been out for a while. The other bowl was fine so I'm not sure what happened there. $46 total for two bowls seems like a higher price than normal for sushi, and the spicy one was just okay. Note that there is a 3% charge for using card.

I've been to the Monkeypod kitchen in Ko'Olina, Oahu, and I have nothing but positives to say about that location. When my father wanted to take the family to this particular location on Maui I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately, we were severely let down. When we sat down, main server asked me probably 3-4 times if I wanted anything other than water, and finally I caved and got a maI tai. After I finished it, he asked me another 3-4 times if I wanted another one, despite me telling him I was good after the first one. I appreciate attentive service, but the guy was incessant and trying to upsell us. As far as dinner goes, Food started to trickle out slowly over the next 5-10 minutes, and it was clear that the kitchen wasn't organized. I ordered the bulgogi tacos, one of my favorites at the other location. Unfortunately, they were lukewarm. The worst part was, they completely forgot about my father, who only ordered fries, and when he received them, they were lukewarm, limp and soggy. After my father asked for the tab, he noticed there wasn't a mandatory tip included for the wait staff, but there was actually a separate 4% tip for the kitchen. Since when is this a thing? How about you pay your kitchen a livable wage and quit putting it on the customers? So my father refused the pre-selected 20% tip and tried to put in a "custom" tip of 16% of the bill, which when added to the 4% would have been a total of 20% - in my opinion pretty generous, considering the lackluster service. Here's where it got bad. The server was practically breathing down his neck while he entered his tip, and when he was handed the payment gizmo because it wouldn't take the tip amount, loudly exclaimed "That's not enough!" and then threw it down on the table and stormed off. How demeaning and embarrassing! Is this how you treat customers here? I helped my mortified father figure out how to make the machine accept his tip (despite my suggestion that we drop the amount down to a penny) and we left without another word. Monkeypod, shame on you for: - embarrassing my father, who is a very generous man, - employing wait staff that openly demeans their customers, - serving us mediocre, lukewarm food, - and demanding an extra 4% for the kitchen that didn't take any pride in what they made. What a shame.
