I give LB five stars for the combination of great value and terrific food. Our family of four…read morereally enjoyed our evening here--it was a well needed respite from the overpriced fancy menus of the various resort restaurants down the hill. We started with the spam and unagi musabi, which is cut in half and a bit messy for four to share but perfect for two. It was delicious! We also had the poke nachos which had plenty of fresh ahi piled on. My wife and I split a smash burger deluxe style--one of the best burgers I've had for a while. The boys split fish tacos, which they devoured with enthusiasm. We had two sides of fries for the four of us, which was more than enough. The server was helpful and efficient. We had the tasting flight, and all five beers were excellent. Can't wait to come back!

Quality/Quantity - Another day, another happy hour. My wife…read moregot the HH Salmon Belly Bowl and really, I mean really, like it. I was worried even as light eaters that it would not have been enough food. I got the HH Smash Burger and Fries - $9, well you get what you pay for, lol. It was okay, nothing to write about, pun intended. When a meal is the same price as your one beer, don't expect much, lol. And after 3 beers... Well 4 if you count the one I had at home, lol. Overall a simple menu done well. Beer, of course, was good. I have drank many of these beers, especially when in Hi, Maui. Ambiance - A small brewery, but if you count the indoor/oudoor space, it was of decent size. We chose to sit at the bar as it typically has better service. Got lucky and got the very first space and there was no parking in this first lot. Clean restrooms, two unsex stalls. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm, on weekdays they have HH from 2pm to 5pm. Service - Good, the lady bartender was the best!!! We watched a little of the game together and had some small talk. The male bartender was no nonsense. Price - $48 + tip. I got another beer only because my wife wanted us to hit the $50 mark so we can get $10 off at their upcountry location. Let's see if they will honor this receipt. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success at this location since 2024 and with your other location, which we hope to visit also on this trip.

The service was extremely attentive, and we got to know each of the bartenders and staff. The environment was extremely welcoming and it was not too loud to carry a conversation.

6.22.26 UPDATE We…read moreoriginally had a disappointing experience due to slow service, limited attention from staff, and the lack of air conditioning during our visit. However, the owner took the time to respond and explain that the entire shopping center wing was experiencing cooling issues and that the restaurant was dealing with significant staffing shortages at the time. While that doesn't completely change the experience we had, I appreciate that the owner acknowledged the challenges and responded professionally rather than dismissing the feedback. One observation I would offer is that, as a customer, it was difficult to tell who was serving tables. I noticed several employees in Pint & Cork shirts moving around the restaurant, but only saw a couple of servers actively covering the dining area. It's possible some staff were assigned to bartending or other responsibilities, but from the guest perspective it gave the impression that table service was understaffed while other employees appeared unavailable. I still think there is room for improvement in the flow and logistics on the floor, but I appreciate the owner's willingness to engage with feedback and explain the circumstances. That being said, I would be willing to give the restaurant another chance. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED REVIEW AFTER OWNER'S RESPONSE: 6.21.26 I appreciate the response. It's telling that you addressed the air conditioning, disputed the gender of an employee, and questioned whether I was even there, yet didn't meaningfully respond to the concerns about service, timing, attentiveness, or food quality. If a customer leaves with a poor experience, the question isn't whether they perfectly recalled every detail. The question is why they left with that impression in the first place. I suspect future readers can draw their own conclusions from both the review and the response. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Probably the most disappointing dining experience of our Hawaii trip. We specifically asked to sit indoors because we wanted a break from the Maui heat after spending the day outside. Unfortunately, we quickly realized there was no air conditioning, making the indoor seating barely any cooler than outside. The restaurant also felt severely understaffed. It took around 10 minutes just to get a Diet Coke, and every time I asked for assistance, the woman working at the register seemed to defer the request rather than help or find someone who could. Meanwhile, some employees appeared more interested in chatting than helping customers, while only one or two staff members seemed to be working the floor. I understand restaurants get busy, especially in a tourist area, but the issue wasn't just the wait--it was the feeling that customer service wasn't a priority. As for the food, it was nothing special. I ordered a steak that had a nice smoky flavor, but it arrived well done and overcooked. The rest of the meal was average at best and definitely not memorable enough to make up for the service issues. Between the lack of air conditioning, slow service, inattentive staff, and mediocre food, this was one of the few places in Hawaii where I genuinely regretted spending my money. Considering the location at The Shops at Wailea and the prices being charged, I expected a much higher level of hospitality and execution. There are far too many great dining options in Wailea to come back here.

The little tasting room is still there, but the real attraction is the main bar and dining room. The place is huge. Excellent bar area with a large bar and plenty of tall tables.

We once again did not have any food, I guess that means we'll need a return trip to Maui. Maui Brewing Kihei is a really great place to enjoy a beverage and/or meal.

There's also +20ft ceilings and a wall of clear garage doors making the area bright and airy. The patio has many tables with the stage being the focal point.

If that's not enough, there's also a huge biergarten with a lot of picnic tables, hightop tables, and corn hole. Most important, or server was great, the beer/ cocktails/ seltzers were great, the music was upbeat and fun, and the food was pretty good.

Our server seemed pleasant at first, but was snappy and kind of rude at other points and ultimately was not very prompt. Long wait for food. Bathrooms weren't very cleanly.

The prime rib sandwich with aus Ju was dry, but we got the horseradish aioli taken off. I would probably go back for the happy hour deals, but was not very impressed.

The seafood was phenomenal, and the wagyu ragù rigatoni was absolutely unforgettable. Koast is a must-visit if you're in Wailea. Easily one of the highlights of our trip to Maui, and a restaurant I'd come back to in a heartbeat. Five stars without hesitation!

Drinks were great and came out quickly. Service from start to finish was perfect as they were constantly checking on us and assisting with recommendations throughout the meal. Dessert was great and particularly liked their beignets and their key lime pie twist. Can't wait to go back and try more food

We left the island for a few months and were disappointed they replaced the cauliflower burger with an eggplant burger. Tonight we gave it a chance. When it came to our table I cut it in half to find a grey patty, not appealing to the eye. The texture was not pleasant either. We have a large family ready and willing to try vegan options at any restaurants on Maui. The things that will bring us back is Happy Hour, drinks, the Brussel Sprouts that are the best I've ever tasted and they brought back a salad we can enjoy, as well. I do wish they'd offer a plant based burger without black beans. There are many options available to restaurants now that you could throw into the freezer to offer to us non meat eaters and keep us coming back. We're ready to support this great place. We're in hopes they will support us too!

I stopped by first as part of my Mai Tai crawl. The $23 "1944 Mai Tai" was excellent and nicely balanced. The rums had enough backbone to stand up to the rest of the ingredients. It wasn't too sweet and the mint bunch was just the right size. Definitely recommend. I went back the next night for dinner and another drink. For dinner I had the poke bowl which was great though a bit on the small side, even by Maui standards. I paired this with the Fortaleza Still Strength Chartreuse Swizzle ($40): Green Chartreuse, Fortaleza Still Strength tequila, Maul Gold pineapple, Maul falernum, lime, served with custom pineapple cocktail pick. The cocktail pick was fun as you get to "choose your own weapon" and select a custom pick. Dominic was running the bar both nights and he was great. Friendly, knowledgeable, and he poured a mean Chartreuse swizzle. While he was making the Swizzle he served me a shot of their "Rum Cannonball" which I enjoyed much more than I thought I would. I definitely recommend Tikeahau!

The staff was extremely friendly, our food and drinks came out quickly, and always with a smile. Everything we tried was high‑quality and clearly made with care. Their happy hour menu is surprisingly robust. Drinks The Tropical Mai Tai was a standout. The flavor really popped without being overly strong, just a genuinely great drink. The Rum Cannonball was delicious as well, with a bright pineapple flavor that's perfect for a hot day on the patio. They do have a nice selection of local beers on tap. Food The Kalua Pork Sliders were the highlight. The pork paired beautifully with the curry slaw, so many layers of flavor, and the toasted roll was a perfect finishing touch. The Mini Poke Bowl was fresh and vibrant. Adding avocado really elevated it, and the sesame brought a nice depth of flavor. The Onion Dip was a fun surprise. Loved hearing the story behind it, they once over‑ordered onions and created this dip, which has since become a best seller. It's easy to see why. Finally, the Ahi Slider was excellent. The ahi was high‑quality and seared perfectly, and again, the toasted bun made a big difference. The sesame oil added a great finishing note. If you're in Wailea, this place is absolutely worth a stop!
