Our island is full of stories, none more inviting than the one told by the dish in front of you. Known for its modern take on Hawaiian comfort fare, Alaia embraces the community through its support of nearby Mauka Farms, telling their story through every plate, bite, and sip. Using unique, native produce such as apple bananas, Moloka'i sweet potatoes and tomatoes from Pele, a third generation farmer, our culinary team works in tune with the seasons. At Alaia we reap the bounty from the mauka to the makai, working with hand-selected fruits and vegetables from our farm to your table. We let the quality and simplicity of the ingredients speak for themselves. And we love what they have to say.

Wait time was terrible, we sat down at 6:00pm with a prefixed menu and didn’t leave until 8:45pm. Service and help was outstanding but getting the food from the kitchen to the table took 1 1/2 for the main course which was a rolled turkey slice with dressing. By the time the dessert was supposed to be served they were out of the menu selection. It seemed as though the kitchen was understaffed and disorganized for this Thanksgiving event.

Service not organized; forgot to serve the salad prior to the dinner selection. Only option was to serve the salad late rather than reserving the dinner selection. Not a five star restaurant but stay at the hotel has limited options.

Unfortunately we did not eat as we were told the kitchen was “overwhelmed” after waiting an hour from placing our order. Our server was very nice but after waiting another twenty minutes without dinner we informed them we were leaving.

Great farm to table experience with beautiful ocean view. we saw the kitchen staff walking over fresh veggies from their farm that day on the trails. Daily special miso mahi caught fresh with potatoes and fish eggs was delicious.

Food is decent and location certainly nice. Service excellent. Dessert is a must. Quality is lesser for the mains. Best dish by a mile was the pasta. The price is a bit preposterous. 8 dollars for a side of white rice.

I was expecting better. The food was pretty good, I expected more for the price. The desserts were just ok. The service was a bit disruptive. Would not go back.

I left a longer review on another app, so I’m leaving this one short and sweet. Our server Conor as the absolute best. It cannot be stated enough how he made our dinner phenomenal the two times we ate here. He is incredibly caring and attentive and informative as he helps walk you through the menu. I’m always skeptical of a servers’ recommendations, but he suggested the Mile High Turtle Bay pie and it was so good we got it on 3 separate occasions. Thank you Conor, you deserve significant acknowledgment as you are an excellent server and helped make our time here at the Alaia exceptional. Thank you!!
