A great restaurant option if you want to celebrate a special occasion when you're in Maui. I made…read morereservation a month in advance with a special request and got front seating with the best view of the sunset. It was sunny at first so I had to wear shades while eating and it was a really hot since it's outdoor seating but then everything got better once the sun is setting down. The food was really good, and the size was decent. I ordered the Thai curry, the pork chop, the bao bun (by accident since the server misheard what I wanted), the chocolate soufflé and a couple cocktails drink. The foods took some time to make but I'm not complaining since you get to enjoy the beautiful view. The server was pretty nice and friendly. All the foods were on the pricier range but you're there for the experience, the view and the atmosphere. The valet parking was free, which is nice since it is a high end restaurant. I would totally recommend this restaurant if you want to celebrate a special occasion!

Had the poke cones, which were great but didn't finish them all since the entree and side dish portions looked large and filled us up. Had the steamed Hawaiian fish Opakapaka (pink snapper) Hong Kong style and the Thai curry mahi mahi - both were excellent. Added braised pork rib bao buns, which were also delicious and filling. True five-star service and a surprise visit by non other than Wolfgang Puck himself. He is the godfather of celebrity chefs, well before the young turks. Suffice to say, we were impressed. Jokingly told him the answer was "I guess so".

The macadamia nut encrusted mahi-mahi, and the chef special fish were extraordinary. We had the papaya salad and chef's choice flatbread for appetizers and they were super yummy. The ambience was amazing, but what really made our meal special was our outstanding server Nash. She was so welcoming and went out of her way to make sure that everything absolutely perfect. She made great suggestions and even altered a few things on the menu to balance out the perfect meal. She really has been the best server here in Maui.. right down to putting candles on our dessert and happiness blow them out and make an anniversary wish...this will now be our favorite treat when where we're back on the island...aloha..

I got a side salad with the papaya dressing and the maui onion soup en croute at the waitresses recommendation, both were so good and the greens were grown right at the farm. My husband got the Caesar salad with chicken, he liked it. One son got the loco moco and said it was good. We were very happy with the location, the ambiance and the food.

The items displayed on the shelves are for sale. The service here is stellar! We started with Passion Berry Iced Tea and Crab Pizza. The Crab Pizza has a creamy crab topping on a homemade crust. It reminds me of crab dip with pita bread- so yummy! The iced tea is fruity, really refreshing, and includes refills. For dinner we ordered the Prime Rib special and Korean BBQ Braised Short Rib. Both were served with garlic mashed potatoes and veggies. The Prime Rib was 14oz and cooked perfectly. The Short Rib was fork tender and well seasoned. I hope they offer Kamaaina deals more often!

We reserved outdoor seating at sunset and the views of the ocean and sunset colors were absolutely stunning. Thursday happen to be prime rib night. We started with Chef's onion soup, which was rich, savory and topped perfectly with crunchy onions. The prime rib was massive, juicy and tender & served with generously size bowls of creamy mashed potatoes and creamed spinach the portions are so large we easily could've shared one meal. Even though we were full, I couldn't resist the Lillikoi tart. It arrived with a chocolate happy anniversary plaque and to our surprise they also brought out a slice of rainbow cake with another plaque. This extra touch was really appreciated and made our night extra special . The LiliKoi pie was delicious, tart and sweet and the macadamia nut crust was buttery & crunchy. The hostess, servers and everyone who stopped by our table were warm, friendly and very attentive. Plumeria Beach House is just as delicious and top-notch as we remembered. As a bonus valet parking is validated with a $50 spend, making it easy to enjoy a relaxed memorable special evening.

The ambiance is dark, moody, and intimate--exactly what you want for a special occasion--but what really stood out was the live music. It added such a beautiful energy to the space and broke things up in the best way without taking away from the vibe. Every single dish we ordered was impeccable. Not one miss. The drinks were also perfectly balanced--crafted with intention, not just poured--and it definitely showed. Service? Top-tier. Our water glasses were never empty, and the entire staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. Huge shoutout to our server, Tori, who was absolutely amazing. She knew the menu front to back--ingredients, preparation, flavor profiles--and guided us with the best recommendations. You can tell she genuinely cares about the experience. And the finale... the 24-carat gold dessert. Easily the best way to end the night--such a fun, elevated touch that made the whole experience feel even more special. Pro tip: If you're driving, park at International Market Place and make sure to get your parking validated. Overall, an unforgettable experience. Perfect for celebrations or just treating yourself to something exceptional.
