Best way to find a local gem! No one greeted us as we arrived at 2pm, offered menus, anything. We sat ourselves, ordered beers at the bar. Great beer selection. Found out after looking online that they had food and happy hour from 3-5pm. No problem, just don't expect a tip. Menu changes regularly based on old photos. We tried the roasted eggplant for $15, and waited until HH to get $2 off the smashburger. While the latter was quite good, the eggplant dish was standout unique and tasty. The sauce in which it was served harkened to African spicy peanut marinade, excellent match with the perfectly roasted eggplant. Wonderful salubrious surprise that will be recreated at home. I asked a fellow clearing plates the inspiration for this dish, he said he'd ask the chef but never got back to us. With all of 3 tables to concern himself with... Great food, nice chill vibe, distant DIY service. Worth a return visit.

I'm glad we listened. We sat at the bar for quick service. The service was fast and super friendly. I ordered the Smash Burger with bacon and an order of garlic fries. Everything is a la carte so if you want fries, just know they do not come with the burger. Everything was delicious. The Smash Burger was perfectly cooked, seasoned wonderfully, and so juicy! The burger also had some spice to it! It had some pickled jalapenos on it and they added the perfect heat. I loved it. The garlic fries were perfectly fried and crispy and had a great garlic flavor and kick. I will definitely come back here on my next visit to island.

(Hard not to overeat here.) Wait staff was very friendly and helpful. This place is a Must Try in the area!

My husband got the smash burger, my mom had the fish and chips, my son got the kids burger -- which was actually a really generous size -- and I had the ahi nachos and a salad. Everything tasted amazing. What really stood out to us was the service. Our server was so friendly and relaxed, and she made sure our toddler had crayons and felt included. She wasn't bothered at all by normal toddler behavior, made him smile, and had such an easygoing attitude that it helped us relax too -- which any parent with a rambunctious little boy can appreciate. The harbor view was also such a fun part of the experience. Being able to look out at all the boats at the dock made the whole meal feel even more enjoyable. Great food, great service, very family-friendly, and a really cool waterfront setting. We would definitely come back next time we're in Maui.

After reading all the wonderful reviews, we decided to try this place for my husband's birthday…read morelunch. It was empty when we got there, with many tables to choose from, so we sat in one of the small booths near the back door. Service was pretty quick and he was very friendly and professional. Okay, the food that sounded so yummy on the menu ended up being disappointing. We ordered the reuben panini and the mahi with tropical salsa. The sandwich came without the promised sauerkraut, though the French fries were good. And, while the mahi mahi was good and the accompanying mac salad extremely tasty, the tropical salsa left much to be desired. It was bitter and was overwhelmed by the taste of the cilantro and onions and was in desperate need of an additional fresh fruit to join the Papaya. Overall, I recommend the service, but not the food.

When it opened it drew lots of friendly attention as the only place to get a drink once the open beer garden closed down on Wailuku First Fridays. At the beginning it was 4 bartenders, soft live jazz, elegance, bouncers, and pro craft cocktails. Fri-Sun and holidays made up the rest of the week's day drinkers. As we say in hospitality-Everything changes to make ends meet. Enter DJs, Karaoke nights, and Mokes. You'll need to shout in my hearing aid to find out if there's enough seating, where the head is or whether your drink is ready. In the back, there was once an overflow area, that is now a perfect place to sit with others to have a conversation away from the 150 decibel speakers and the other two attractive bars are full.

Fortunately, Esters Fair Project was open for business and we had a good time there. C'mon guys, update the hours on your website. We'll come to visit and give you more stars.

The setting is absolutely…read morebeautiful, with lush tropical surroundings, mountain views, and a relaxed island atmosphere that makes you want to linger. It's the perfect blend of casual and upscale. The food was outstanding. We ordered the mahi mahi and the swordfish, and both were cooked perfectly--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The cocktails were equally impressive and some of the best we've had on the island. Be sure to save room for dessert because the malasadas were incredible, especially with the three different dipping sauces. What really sets this place apart for families is everything beyond the food. There were ducks, geese, koi, and other animals roaming the plantation grounds, which kept the kids entertained before and after dinner. Combined with the friendly, attentive service, Cafe O'Lei delivered a memorable dining experience that we'd recommend to anyone visiting Maui. We can't wait to come back!

Not much in food unless we're talking maraschino cherries or lime wedges…read more If Mid day drinking is the plan, here's the place. Plenty of parking to escape your troubles or hide your whereabouts. Adjacent lot just in case you need wide turns. Friendly little bartenders who know how to pour a beer and make highballs or Hawaiian ice tea. Pretty tidy and clean, lots of light to ward off vampires and an outside bench for smokers. Clean restrooms are the biggest surprise. Denizens include a bunch of regular seniors who love to talk and shoot the shit while sipping a beer. Pool table for local sharks or bored barflies. Gone is the sign for oysters on the half shell. Take the side streets home slowly if you're over the limit.

We were with locals who actually live here, so there was no excuse for the attitude. The vibe? Absolutely dead. Zero friendliness, zero aloha spirit. If this place thinks this is "hospitality," then the owner clearly doesn't care. Honestly, the bartender needs anger management classes or maybe just a different career altogether, because customer service clearly isn't for her. Do yourself a favor: don't waste your money or your time here. There are plenty of better places where you won't be treated like garbage the second you walk in.

Service: 1/5 Food: 3/5…read more To start off we were celebrating my friend's birthday. The hostesses fake smile upon entering could be better, we mistakenly gave her the wrong amount in our party and apologized, she sat us at a 4 top at first, until I asked her to be moved to a bigger table with at least one more seat for a child, I apologized again. Her tone and demeanor were trash. Mind you we got to the restaurant at 4, there were 5 tables dining outside. Our waitress I think Alyssa? was her name hadn't introduced herself yet just kept reminding us she'd be right with us so cool, fine. She seemed to be taking care of more tables than she could handle alone. By the time she came to us to take our drink orders it was 4:40, she reminded us about happy hour which ended at 5 so twenty minutes for us to get a margarita or two in before it ended. Although drinks took longer than usual. We had to bother her at 4:59 to put in our last happy hour drinks. The margaritas were inconsistent bc the second round for me was stronger than the first the opposite for my friends who ordered a different flavor. The coconut heaven wasn't very good for an $18 cocktail. Food wise, their crostinis for the appetizers were stale and the braised short ribs my friend ordered was dried out on the outside and a bit gamey, which was unfortunate. Our steaks, the salmon and the risotto were a hit. Just to get to the dessert portion of our meal and to get another drink we waited 20 minutes for our server to come back, I had to step outside, sure enough our server is at the hostess stand leaning on it on a phone scrolling probably talking stories with the rude hostess. Server brought out the birthday dessert we sang hbd, she left and didn't take our dessert order until after almost 10 minutes. Birthday girl and I ordered a tres leches cake.. barely any leches it was dry just by looking at it, her and I agreed it tasted like pancakes with syrup. We were both disappointed, my friends ordered the brownie which the birthday girl tried and enjoyed most. Please don't get me wrong Alyssa was kind and friendly. The attentiveness to her guests is the issue. We spent most of our time waiting for her to return and check in on us. Also an FYI, for those thinking of visiting Fuegos. They charge a service fee. In your tab there is three different total amounts at the bottom. Your actual meal total then a cash payment amount vs a non-cash payment amount which is more. Unaware of what percentage the service fee is, they could be adding any amount they'd like for all we knew. No breakdown what-so-ever. If they intend to charge a service fee I believe it should be company policy that they notify guests as well as on their menus/website and by mouth from servers about this service fee. I understand it's common amongst businesses, but a simple notice would suffice. I asked the server about them and she said "it's not the tip, but a service fee we have, I'm sorry". It wouldn't have made us wonder why our bill could've been less instead of paying more. We know now IF we ever choose to come back.
