    Hey, solid tacos after a long day of hitting all the trails on the West side of Maui. Give them a stop and get the fish tacos and the carne asada tacos. Not fast, but hits the spot and nice outdoor seating.

    Hawaiian Hot Dog
    Alora M.

    I would never before have thought about eating a hot dog with pineapple, onions, and sriracha aoli, but I did... and it wasn't too bad. We had just survived driving the "deadliest highway on Maui" Kahekili Highway (IYKYK), and we needed to stop, catch our breath, and grab a little something to eat. We saw the road signs and stopped here. It's a nice little spot just outside a macadamia nut orchard (where you can take a tour btw), and we settled down with a soda and a hot dog to collect ourselves. Service was very friendly, and they answered all our questions. The dog was a bit overcooked, but the fries were fresh and the toppings were interesting. I wish I would have been a little more hungry so we might have tried something else, but the hot dogs hit the spot before continuing on our way to the airport for our flight out. Come sit for a while. Enjoy the outdoors. Enjoy the food.

    Ulu smash burger
    Randee L.

    The food was delicious and was reasonably loves compared to every other restaurant establishment. Plus, its farm to table ingredients and everything was fresh and flavorful. We got the special (teriyaki chicken tacos) and the ulu smash (2 patty burger). The burger was so good and had a Lilokoi Dijon spread that was heavenly. The tacos were also fresh and delicious and the fries were perfectly crispy!

    New menu!!! Ginger chicken salad still my favorite!!

    Ginger chicken salad amazing!! Ulu smash so ono Pork loco moco super tasty!Sunday for dessert!! So full but ready to come back and try all the new items!!

    Coconut Shrimp!

    Best food on the island! Definitely a must try if you're visiting. The owner is super welcoming and hospitable too (:

    The tropical smoothie $11 was very good with strawberry, banana, papaya, pineapple, dragon fruit, blueberry. It was premade and very tasty and fresh and was filling. The mango nectar juice was $5 but it was not fresh squeezed from a mango. They have a dwarf coconut farm. Feral chickens abound who don't bug you. Outdoor seating and bathrooms.

    Very nice service and location with a nice setup right on the farm. The food was very good and healthy options fresh from the farm are lovely as is the location. Service was nice too as they described all the choices before we ordered. I'd definitely recommend if in the area. Aloha

    kahlua pork fried rice mahi tacos chicken katsu
    Nicole L.

    9/10 everything pretty solid, the employees are super sweet and nice! good vibes - loco moco 9.5/10: probably the best loco moco i've had, but i only had it once before lol. it wasn't too salty, came out nice and fresh. good flavor! - mahi tacos 7/10: there was only 1 tortilla so it ripped :( it was good, but nothing super special. - kahlua pork fried rice 9.5/10: fire. kinda greasy from the pork but that's what made it good! the rice was crispy in some areas and had great flavor. egg on it was good too. - chicken katsu 8.5/10: it was good but pretty standard... i thought the chicken lacked a bit of flavor and were smaller slices. wouldn't get again bc i liked the other things better!

    Probably the best burger I've ever had in my life. Everyone was very friendly. The food was fantastic.

    Mac nut crusted mahi mahi salad (gluten free)
    Delilah W.

    Ula Ula is a good stop after the airport! The Mac nut crusted mahi mahi salad was quite good and gluten free! The pesto on the fish is really yummy. My dad got the Ula Ula burger and said it was okay! The piece of pineapple on it was good but meat was a bit overdone. The service was quick and friendly, and it was nice to sit outside after a long plane ride!

    Pricey but worth it for fresh, delicious and nutritious goodness from the working farm. Great place to stop and grab a quick and refreshing snack before or after golf at Waiehu.

    Grilled Cajun Mahi Mahi with mango papaya slaw, greens over rice.
    Bethani E.

    Picked up lunch yesterday on a weekday. I ordered the grilled Cajun Mahi Mahi and my husband ordered the loco moco. The fish plate was cooked to perfection. Flaky and seasoned well and topped with a mango papaya salsa with micro greens and served with green salad and steamed white rice. My husband's loco moco was delicious. Hamburger cooked medium, gravy was on point and eggs were over medium as requested. Good portions and everything was fresh and tasty. Will definitely come back for another visit.

    Zeniebelle G.

    This place is like a hidden. It's a nice area before heading to Waiehu Golf Course or heading to hike waihee ridge trail. The food tastes amazing! It's a small local business owner and there's about 4 workers only. So it will take a while to get your food. But while you're waiting, you can look around the farm and enjoy the views.

    Yum! Poke is a must get in Hawaii and this is conveniently located close to the airport and Costco…read more I highly recommend the shoyu ginger, I am already dreaming of more.

    I feel like Like Poke was one of the original food trucks on Maui -- long before food trucks…read morestarted popping up everywhere. They've been part of the island's food scene for over 12 years now, and I still remember their off-the-beaten-path spot on Hobron Avenue in Kahului. You would have never guessed there was delicious food being served up there, but those who knew, knew. These days, you can find them in Kahului parked at Da Tambayan Corner on Lono Avenue, or sometimes popping up out at Ho'okipa. Now, full disclosure -- I don't eat raw fish, so I can't personally vouch for their poke bowls, but that's what they're known for and I've had a number of friends and family enjoy it. What I can vouch for, though, is their fried poke -- perfectly seasoned ahi cubes, floured and fried, served over rice and lettuce, and drizzled with a creamy mayo aioli. Get it hurricane style for extra sauce and furikake seasoning -- it's delicious and gives it an extra boost as once in a while it's on the drier side. Another favorite is the poke bake, which is just as satisfying and generously portioned. Started getting this recently and it hits the spot. Highly recommend either dish, especially if you're like me and prefer your fish cooked. And whatever you do, don't skip the furikake fries -- curly fries topped with aioli and furikake. SO good. Beyond the great food, my team has worked with Like Poke for company events, and they're always a hit. Friendly service and consistent quality eats that keep people coming back -- they're a favorite among locals for a reason.

I like the new location definitely easier for people to get to as the last location was upstairs with no elevator. One thing that has not changed is the food is still just as good if not even better than before. On this trip we had the Lunch Special which was the Waygu loco moco that came with white rice and Mac salad and two eggs over easy. The Wagyu burgers were perfect not over seasoned and the eggs were perfectly cooked. Still runny on the inside. I had the mis fish which was an ahi today. I liked the fact that the Miso was not overwhelming they got them mix perfect and the broccoli was perfectly cooked and it came with a scoop of white rice. Everything was perfectly done and just the right amount of food. The price is still reasonable for the quality of the food you are getting and the service was great even though there was only one waitress and she was doing double duty as hostess. She was very pleasant and the service is some of the best I have had on Maui. I like how the new place has a nice local feel while having that new but welcoming aura. I will definitely be going back because I like to support local and these guys are making some great food for reasonable prices. I definitely recommend these guys and I will definitely be going back. So much more menu items to try.

    On my first trip to Maui, I was excited to try as many local food spots as possible, and Da Soriano…read moreGrindz ended up being one of the highlights of the entire trip. I was immediately intrigued by the calamansi pork -- an item I had never seen it on a menu before. One bite and I was hooked. The pork was tender and flavorful, and the bright, citrusy calamansi added a unique tang that made the dish completely unforgettable. It was so good that I'm still thinking about it after coming home. We also tried the pancit noodles, pork sisig, and mochiko chicken, and every dish was excellent. The pancit was packed with flavor, the sisig was gelatinous (fir those who are into it), and the mochiko chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and impossible to stop eating. For my first visit to Maui and my first time trying Da Soriano Grindz, this food truck set the bar incredibly high. If you're visiting Maui and want amazing Filipino food that's a little different from what you'll find elsewhere, don't skip this spot. The calamansi pork alone is worth the trip.

Ambiance was low key and fun.

    BEST FILIPINO FOOD ON THE ISLAND!…read more During my 1 week stay at Maui I probably came here about 5 times. I went here right after getting off the airport to get some quick comfort food before checking in to my stay in Kīhei and Tagpuan happened to be on the way. I ordered the chicken Inasal and pork lumpia and from those two simple dishes I could tell that this place was legit. IMO that inasal's definitely better than Mang Inasal back in PI and much better than the Inasal I've had in the Bay Area so hopefully that hypes it up enough. Kept coming back almost every single day till I left to go back to the mainland. In that time I also had the grilled liempo (pork belly), crispy pork belly, and longanisa sliders - all excellent dishes. Really love the sauce selections they use for their dishes too - pretty good balance of acid to cut the fat making the dishes feel not too heavy. The food truck is currently nestled in what seems to be an auto shop lot. There's a nice clean bathroom access via the auto shop near the food truck itself. Lots of parking, a few benches to eat at, and of course, really good food. The couple that run Tagpuan are incredibly kind and hard working people. Would highly recommend - not only to support a local business owner (who's from Lāhainā) but because they serve genuinely good and authentic Filipino food.

    We drive by everyday to drop off our kid to school and was always curious about this spot. We…read morefinally got to try it today and we absolutely MUST go back and try the other food items. This food truck is inside a small lot with gravel around a couple benches and chairs. It's across from car wash so you'll hear their loud air drying machines but after awhile it's just background noise and doesn't bother us. Plus they play some nice music on a small speaker at the truck. We ordered the Ahi Poke Nachos and this dethroned our previous favorite from another spot down the road. It is a bit spicy so just be aware. So worth it. Lots of flavor and plenty poke to chip ratio. We also ordered the chicken Inasal since our kid would eat it. She's picky but ate plenty chicken. It has a very nice charred smoky flavor and still super tender and moist. We need to try the other items for sure so we will 100% be back. We got to meet the owners Rocky and Maine? They were super nice and took the time to explain that their name Tagpuan means "meeting place" for those who are not Filipino. (Me) When the food is ono we already happy but service was cherreh on top. They were warm and very inviting. There's one port a potty and sink just fyi. Highly recommend! Come check it out!
