    Stopped by for lunch on a Thursday at about 1:00 pm. It is BYOB so we went to the liquor store next to it and got some sake! Wait time was about 20 minutes because this place is TINY. I counted 30 seats total. Good menu with all the typical rolls. They also had a roll on special that was specifically made with local fresh fish caught that day. It was excellent. I'd avoid this place during peak hours of lunch and dinner because of the wait times.

    Simple and delicious really simple ms up Miso Phat. The menu is an easy read, especially if you sit at the sushi bar you can take a peak at the fresh rolls as they are being made. We took suggestions from our server, the TNA roll and spicy salmon were incredible. The fish was so fresh it melted in your mouth. We also opted for a side of poke which was dressed perfectly. I was very impressed with the young girl making all the rolls, her knife skills were on point. Oh and the fish was so fresh, they kept it on ice in a cooler at the hostess stand. They are BYOB so stop at the liquor store next door and grab a six pak or a bottle of wine.

    Came to Miso Phat Sushi twice during our stay in Maui - that's how good it was. Service was quick both times, with food hitting the table within 10-15 minutes. We ordered the TNT Roll, which had large, fresh chunks of ahi paired with crispy shrimp tempura. The texture contrast was perfect, buttery and fresh with that satisfying crunch. The TNA Roll was another standout. The salmon melted in your mouth and the scallops were super fresh. Such an amazing cooked roll option if you want something indulgent but not fully raw. The Miso Butterfish was everyone's absolute favorite. Rich, buttery, and so tender it practically dissolved with each bite. High-quality sushi, quick service, and so consistent that we came back multiple times. Definitely adding this to one of our go-to spots in Maui.

    Smaller sized place in Ka'anapali. Parking is limited. BYOB. There is a liquor store in the same strip mall. The sashimi is outstanding. Warm, hospitable service. Expect to wait for a table if you don't come at opening. Worth the wait. Mahalo Miso Phat. Chef's kiss.

    Our waitress recommended the TNA roll which was a baked roll... amazing! The food is very fresh, extremely well prepared, and service staff are friendly and helpful. A very small restaurant, so get here as early as you can.

    We had a great experience at the Miso Phat Sushi on December 3rd around 8:15 PM. The staff was super friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in, which made the whole experience even better. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and has a great vibe for dining in. We tried a few of their Chef Specials, along with the Hamachi Nigiri, the Hamachi Kama, and the TNT Roll. Everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The Hamachi Kama was cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside and tender inside--while the Hamachi Nigiri had that melt-in-your-mouth quality you hope for. The TNT Roll had generous portions and amazing flavor, and the Miso Soup was the perfect warm start to the meal. For Maui, the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. No wonder this spot is famous the food, service, and atmosphere all come together beautifully. We left full, happy, and definitely planning to return.

    In Hawaii, Miso Phat Lahaina is my go-to sushi spot. It's another one of my favorite sushi restaurants in the country (I only have two favs). I really suggest getting a reservation for this place, it's not that big and it's always busy at any time of day. The staff from the sushi chefs to management are so friendly and wonderful. The selections available are plenty and the plates are just wow! I really love their Chirashi Bowls (sorry no photo) but anything you chose here is always an A+. Can I just remind you that their service is fantastic? The setting is very lively here. The staff but on a show by just doing their job. It's fun to watch the chefs make your food when you're sitting at the sushi bar. We also came out with some Miso Phat shirts and they gave us bumper stickers. I love that I can wear the logo of one of my favorite sushi restaurants all around Chicago! If you're in Lahaina, Miso Phat is a MUST!

    First off, everything was incredibly fresh and the service was extremely kind. The reason why I'm giving it a 3 is because the size of the roll pieces were huge and difficult to eat so they were falling apart. This is a hole in the wall type of place with a solid menu.

    We've been going to Miso Phat for years and the food never disappoints. We got the TNT Roll, Poke Bowl, rainbow roll, and joy rolls... the Miso the bomb was the bomb! We took the food to go so can't speak to the service/ambiance in house.. the only con was we were put on hold for 11 minutes. And then they didn't call us back, so we had to go and order the food in person and wait in a parking lot nearby. But don't let that comment discourage you. Just call earlier in advance and don't procrastinate like we did and call around peak times.

    Fish!

    First evening in Maui. Long day of traveling. Lucked out and this place is steps from where we are staying. Sushi was excellent. Also want to note this is a place featured on Diners, Drive ins and Dives. It's a small shopping center. Cool place. Excellent service. Try the Poke and TnT Roll. It's also BYOB too. There is a convenient store next to it. Try it!

    Sushi Combo A (asked for no tuna nigiri) with spicy tuna roll
    Lucy M.

    On vacation, fan of fish and sushi, so went for the Sushi Combo A $60 in hopes of indulging in a nice variety. The combo came with a choice of ca or spicy tuna roll and going with spicy tuna was a delicious decision. For the 12 piece nigiri, I asked for no tuna nigiri and no cooked shrimp. However, the cooked shrimp still showed up. Did not ask to swap because 1. they already put food on the table and per health regulation ur not supposed to take it back, i.e. don't wanna make it difficult for service and 2. it seems like they put repeat cuts of fish as replacements anyways. Moving on to the actual food, the fish was incredibly fresh and I did enjoy the thick cuts, even if it's not cut with typical sushi finesse, the taste weights more for me. Especially the mahi mahi (next to the shrimp in pic) was super soft and melts in your mouth, and it's also a rarer find in sushi broadly speaking. However, the cooked shrimp, as expected, was not worth. Also, at this price point, the cuts of fish could be introduced when serving. I can guestimate the hamachi and kanpachi but there seems to be different cuts of the same fish that I wish it was pointed out. Another issue for me is that there way too much rice on the nigiri. Don't get me wrong, I love bigger portions, but there's no need for that much rich for that much fish. Taking a straight bite at the nigiri just ends up with tasting just rice and I ended up wasting rice since I ended re-rationing the rice. Rice ratio for rolls are just fine. I think if I eat here again, I'd go for the rolls, mahi mahi, and sashimi instead.

    Yellowfin Tuna just caught the day before
    Fontey M.

    We went in for a quick lunch after driving around. The staff was really great and friendly and the service was amazing. The sushi was so fresh we saw the catch from the day before. It's not a huge restaurant but competes with the best fresh sushi I've had. Definitely recommend trying this place and there's cool souvenirs in the front.

We stopped by on a Monday night around 7:30 pm after doing the road to Hana. They had some Whitney Houston and Shakira bumpin, some cute garden lights, and three outdoor picnic tables for diners. We ordered and had to fill up on gas, so we picked up some drinks from the nearby gas station and got back to wait for the food. The server said it would take about 15 minutes, and I think that was pretty accurate. We ended up ordering the following: Salmon Nigiri - 3/5 this was a little bit more salty than I normally expect of my nigiri. Spicy California Roll - 5/5 tasted like a fresh California roll with some spicy mayo on it. It wasn't very spicy though? Mild enough for the non-spice lovers. Tempura Roll - 5/5 this was probably my favorite roll. It was simple yet delicious. You can't ever go wrong with unagi sauce. Smash Roll - 4/5 the smash roll was really good. It had a good, well-rounded taste with the tuna and salmon. This was my husband's favorite roll. If you're feeling like you need some good Asian-American sushi, check out Smash Maui! It's going to hit!

While the prices are definitely on the higher side, that's expected at a five-star resort in Maui. Service was excellent, the atmosphere was stunning, and the food was delicious all around.

There was a line of people trying to make reservations also so book before or earlier. We arrived a few minutes early for the reservation and our table was ready. The restaurant is much bigger than I thought. Large covered dining area plus the dining on the newly renovated and extra large deck over looking the pool. Evening time was dark inside but the table lights were bright enough at the table and added the nice ambiance. Our server was so friendly and patient and I saw that she was on top of every request and order from all the tables in her section. Amazing skills! We ordered the white lotus mocktail, a OJ, kids Mac and cheese, curry dusted calamari, Korean seafood pancakes, pork belly bao, Rainbow and Shrimp Tempura rolls, and the blackened tuna roll. The dishes and sushi rolls are generous portions and we didn't understand or were starving. We ordered too much for the table. Even the kids Mac and cheese came in this huge bowl enough for two kids. All the sushi rolls were fresh and delicious. They were topped with this wasabi tobiko. I've never had anything like that, and I wished I had more to top other dishes. The Korea seafood pancakes were really crispy on the outside and light and doughy on the inside with the seafood. The sauce on top was great. If they had called this seafood hush puppies, I would have been happy with the order. Each piece was ginormous but didn't have much green onions. I was expecting the pancakes to have a lot more green onions. The pork belly bao buns had a nice pickled salad on top. The buns were not very fluffy but serviceable. The dish was ok. The curry dusted calamari was also just ok. Calamari was fried well and crispy. The curry dust was just not the flavor we liked. And it came with these grape halves around which didn't really go well with the calamari or flavor in my opinion. I think if we ever come back, we'll stick with the sushi menu.
