Don't judge a book by its cover!!!!…read more Very unassuming place. The menu has no pictures nor descriptions. Almost no decorations inside. But the food is DA BOMB!!!! Saimin, chicken katsu, beef stew, and wings were all spectacular. Also, you will notice that there are barely any tourists there. We ate among locals so that's the green signal that this place is legit.

We grabbed a table and some menus as none were brought over after a few minutes of sitting. Our unsmiling server came over to ask if we wanted water but didn't ask if we wanted anything else to drink before taking off. She returned with the glasses and took our orders, still not very friendly. I ordered the chow fun with vegetables and realized after it came I should gave just gotten the chow fun because there were hardly any noodles to be found. I gave our visit 4 stars only because of the local vibes.

The ingredients are fresh, the food is consistently delicious, and you can taste the care in every dish. The service is always on point. Family run, friendly and efficient without ever feeling rushed. There's a reason we track them down no matter where they pop up on the island. If you're on Maui or visiting, go find them and support, you won't regret it.

So, We picked up food to take out for a picnic ahead of our drive to Hāna. The line was very long and was disrupting traffic flow in the parking lot. The food was very good. The chicken noodle platters were hearty and delicious. Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. This place is a must try if you are in Maui. Just plan and order ahead. This place is by the airport in a shopping center, not near the beach area!

I really wanted to love this place because I loved Sheldon on Top Chef…read more but...unfortunately...everything I tried was terrible. I tried teh Kau Kau Tin with pork belly and garlic noodles, the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, and a small mac salad. Generally, the Kau Kau Tin and the mac salad were utterly bland. The mac salad tasted of nothing. The garlic noodles in the Kau Kau tin also lacked flavor. The garlic noodle had the slightest of garlic taste. The pork belly was perfectly cooked and was the best part of the Kau Kau tin and I made sure to make each every piece of that. The Spicy Chicken sandwich was the most disappointing item I tried. The chicken patty was just a VERY FATTY piece of fried chicken. It was terrible. The texture shock alone from biting through crispy crust to gelatinous fat was shocking. But then, the chicken was not seasoned. It was a textural monstrosity that had no flavor. All in all, I'm glad I tried it. I will definitely try it again when back on the island in hopes that this was just a bad day.

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.

You be the judge if you want to eat here... the following is a cut and paste from his private messaged comments to myself and my husband: Spouse: You're response proves my point. I'm not a jerk, you said bring the pizza back and you hanged up, didn't wait to hear that I half ate one slice and my wife another and you don't know were we live or our circumstances. Being valentines day is not an excuse to respond so rude and pause to listen and by the way, since you were so busy to listen, the pizza was terrible soggy.

Zippy's is such a reliable local spot. Hubby got the Zip Pac Deluxe, and I got the Chicken Trio,…read morewhich is perfect for when you can't decide between Korean chicken or chicken katsu. Why choose? Get both, plus a piece of their classic fried chicken. The last few times I've gotten the chicken katsu at Zippy's, I've been pleasantly surprised. The chicken was tender and the breading was crispy. Sometimes you go to a plate lunch place and the katsu is all skin and no meat, but not here. Everything came with the usual rice and mac salad, and it hit the spot. One note: normally we eat on the restaurant side, but this time the host seemed to be in a mood and wasn't very friendly. So we opted for the takeout side instead, where the service was much warmer, and the food was just as ono. Every place has an off day, and it won't stop us from coming back.

This review is for a dinner time visit on June 25th (probably 6pm-ish)…read more I've been to Zippy's before, but it was my first time at this location. Searched on Yelp to see if there was a Zippy's on Maui, and was surprised to see it only had 3.5 stars. I was like, "But why? Zippy's is so good!" When we got there, someone in our party greeted the hostess and told her our group size. She scoffed, "Well, I don't see a name!!" I thought to myself, "Ohhhh, that's why." Apparently you have to type in your name or else the hostess will let her pettiness out. Go get a massage or eat a Snickers or something. Jeebus. Rude hostess aside, our waitress was great. Sorry I didn't catch any names. Food was also great. Just like the Zippy's I'm used to. People saying this is Hawaii's version of Denny's or IHOP are doing Zippy's a bit of a disservice. It's a diner, yes, but the food quality is much better. Plenty of seating on a Thursday night. Parking lot had lots of spaces available too. I'm sure it's busier on the weekends.
