    This was our best dinner so far! The atmosphere was amazing! We watched the sun set and they also do a ritual at sunset. There was also live music. It was perfect!

    We were charged a 20% service fee for having 6 people in our group. We are a family of 6 not a group of adults with all separate tickets. Nowhere did it state that when making the reservation and I definitely would not have eaten here if I knew that was going to be charged. They took our order, brought out food, and refilled waters so not sure why that warrants an extra fee when the same thing is done for every table.

    We enjoyed an evening meal on the patio. We got to watch the sun set. It was a memorable experience. I had the fresh catch seafood dynamite with rice. My food was excellent. My wife had the lobster roll. It was very good as well. Our server was excellent. He was both attentive and helpful. For diners that drive here,take advantage of the valet parking as the restaurant validates for 3 hours.

    A delightful evening was ours at this beautiful restaurant. We dined at a perfect spot with a fantastic view of the ocean. When we arrived it was too much sun so the wonderful manager guided us to the bar for a few minutes and the told us the table was held and to take our time. After the sunset we ordered delicious entrees for the two of us. I appreciated the half- order option and it was perfectly sized. I had the fantastic Mahi Mahi while my husband had a terrific burger. We were treated to a delicious dessert for my birthday! We can’t wait to return to Maui and repeat the experience!

    Beautiful place for lunch alongside the beach. Food was very good, but pricey for the proportion size. Service started out fine, but once lunch was served, no check on the meal quality and no ask for second round of beers. Glasses sat empty for 20+ minutes.
