We made a reservation about a week in advance and I highly recommend doing that because it was packed the night we went. I think they may have bar seating first come, first serve. I really liked the celebration cocktail and my husband enjoyed the Kamuela Fizz. We ordered the pork steam buns, which I loved the most. Pro tip: ask for four if you have a party of two or four. They won't charge you extra and you'll have an even number so no one is fighting for some. We also enjoyed the hot and sour soup and the Look More Funn noodles. Everything we ate was delicious. Our server was stellar. I recommend asking for their spicy chili oil, if you like heat. It paired well with everything we tried. Parking was very difficult right by the restaurant but someone at our hotel mentioned they always park in the Longs Drugs parking lot and we did that- no issue.

We had a very disappointing experience at Star Noodle…read more We arrived early for our reservation and walked around to kill some time. About 30 minutes before our reservation, we returned and attempted to order non-alcoholic drinks for our kids while waiting outside. We were told that this was not allowed--apparently, children cannot even have water or soft drinks in the outdoor area. This was an extremely strange and unnecessarily rigid policy. Even more confusing, we were told the bar area was reserved exclusively for walk-ins. Because we had a reservation, we were not allowed to sit at the bar and have a cocktail while waiting. The whole situation was bizarre and made what should have been a relaxed start to dinner unnecessarily uncomfortable. The food may be good, but the customer experience and inflexible policies left a very poor impression.

I added sriracha, hoisin and jalapeños. I wish I would have tried it before adding them because it was the most flavorful and fresh pho I have ever had.

Noodles and Rice is located in Kihei. There is plenty of parking (free). There is a single-room bathroom for customers. Super clean! The restaurant is impeccably tidy. There was not a speck of dust or a single water stain in sight. Well done! Plenty of seating inside. Very inviting, cozy space. Perfect for late night noodles (and rice)! The staff were extraordinary friendly and kind. The pho was delicious! The Thai chili oil is quite spicy, but tasty too. I wish we were hungrier because their appetizers look good.

RESERVATIONS: Not needed. PARKING: Free & plentiful. MENU: Vietnamese apps, noodle & rice selections, desserts. FOOD: Crispy Tiger Shrimp (4 pcs.) Sizable, peeled shrimp that needed to be cooked more as they visually and texturally tasted a tad rare. The coating was light and crispy but needed more seasoning as they relied on the included dipping sauce for flavor. Lettuce Wrap Romaine innards provided for the perfect vessel for the ground chicken, though the poultry needed a serious flavor oomph. Special Pho The pictures, especially the dark-hued broth, looked so good, I had to try it. This was my first ever beef pho and it was very disappointing. First off, the broth was not hot, a serious flaw for me. Secondly, the flavor was very subtle. I did enjoy the tender slices of meat, especially the meatballs. I wished my carb overload didn't go to waste, but it did. SERVICE: Greeting was immediate and welcoming. Food delivery was quick. Wait staff were friendly but there was no follow up. TIP: There's an automatic gratuity for kitchen staff and a surcharge for using credit cards. OVERALL: Meh.

Although they had hours that where I listed, we missed them the first time because they put up a sign that said back @ 5. The second time we caught them, it was right before they put up the back at 5 sign, and I think that's why the sisig was super tough and chewy - we got the bottom of the pot sisig haha. Anyhow, happy to report the chicken was very tasty. The fry was light, the seasoning on point and the portion was sizable. Both were plated on top of a banana leaf, which I thought was great presentation. Overall I would say it was okay, probably not something we'd hit up again, but glad we tried it!

The menu is surprisingly generous, with a solid lineup of noodles, rice plates, soups, and appetizers. I've stopped by a handful of times now, and everything I've tried--from the Vietnamese crepe to the shrimp rolls--have been pretty tasty for the most part. The banh mi is perfectly balanced with crispy bread, flavorful meat, and just the right blend of fresh herbs. The banh xeo (Vietnamese crepe) is a standout -- crispy, savory, packed with flavor, and comes in a pretty generous serving. Their fried rolls are fresh and satisfying, but my favorite of the two would have to be the shrimp rolls. These golden little bites are crispy and just absolutely addictive! The flat noodles with shrimp were also pretty tasty with a generous serving size. You can taste the care and authenticity in every bite. It's clear the folks behind Aloha Pho Maui care about sharing the flavors of Vietnam with our island. If you're in the area or hankering for some Vietnamese food, definitely swing by. It's worth the stop! Ample covered seating is also available and is shared with other food trucks in the lot.

I do miss some of the more varied menu items of years back (they used to have much larger omekase style platter) but the quality remains at the top. Dining on the terrace at sunset is a must. The views and the weather are otherworldly (I overheard another table describe it as "looks like AI"). I assure you it's real. Our server Misti was wonderful, as was Delfino. The sashimi was immaculate and the rolls all had the right combos. My one complaint (but not one worth a star deduction) is that that Hokkaido Old Fashioned came with normal ice... at this kind of establishment and for the price, a single large rock should be standard.
