    Was concerned about hitting up a favorite tourist spot but I'm so glad we did! We luckily beat the crowd for a Sunday dinner. You simply order first and then find a table. We luckily quickly snagged a table for 8 in front of a separate shaved ice spot located adjacent to the restaurant. Everything we ordered tasted great. Even a simple chicken Caesar salad was done right. See my pictures for food ratings. A koi pond is in the middle of the restaurant and our kids were given fish food with their meal to feed the fish! Definitely recommend this spot.

    Another wonderful location to eat a meal out. Great vibes with live music. Different restaurants to order from and then eat outside with other visitors. Another one of my Favorite means in Maui. I got the frozen pina colado but didn't like that much. Overly sweet and very frozen so got plenty of brain freezes. Very cute to look at but I couldn't drink more than half. My aunt ordered a pork plate of some sort. Very big portion unfortunately I thought this was alright. The pork (at least on this day) was overly salty and no other flavor besides salt. The mango salad was refreshing and we all agreed that was the best pet of the plate. We got the lava lava shrimp appetizers which was so good! Very filling since it's fried. That sauce is chefs kiss. I recommend that. The star of the meal was the lobster rolls we ordered. One of the best lobster rolls I've ever had (and I've only had two great ones!) that's a definitely must get if they still have that on the menu. I dined here in early 12/2022.

    This place gets so much hype. It's dingy in the front but really nice once you go downstairs and enter. The food was mid, very diner-esque but if you get a coupon from any local store then it's worthwhile

    One of the stops on our honeymoon to Maui. Walking in it isn't much but after you seated, it has such a vibrant and bright vibes. Arrived around 11:30am and was seated right away for brunch. We got a pint of mimosa, avocado toast and southern style moco loco. Everything was very tasty! Especially the moco loco!!! The price wasn't too bad for Maui

    Read some great reviews about this place & liked how they were open past 10pm- which is a rarity in Maui I've heard. I think they stay open until midnight or 1am most nights! AMBIENCE We got here on a Tuesday night- and it was POPPIN!!! Live music & sailor trivia event followed- lots of knot-tying involved...have legit island vibes! It's a good time & the whole bar & seating areas are outdoors. There's an adorable moat (haha) that runs through too. So cute. There are also 3 TVs behind the bar so there's something for everyone. FOOD I ordered the local grilled fish tacos & their fish happened to be mahi mahi. I expected it to taste dry & flavorless, since this spot seemed more like a bar but NOOOO- it was amazing! And I usually hate fruit with my tacos, but this combo worked. Salsa tasted really generic like it came from a bottle but the tacos were great. Fish tastes fresh- which was most important! And I was so impressed with the fact that they will prepare fresh fish you catch as well. How legit is that! DRINKS I didn't try any cocktails but I heard the POG foam mai tai & mule island style were pretty well balanced in flavor. Foam part didn't taste flavorful though. I got the mule mocktail & loved the tartness of it. CASUAL Order at the counter & seat yourself. Very laid back but a fun spot to eat, especially for late night when everything seems to close early. It's on a busy street with lots of shopping & dining options too. Water is serve yourself which honestly I think is perfect for bars. If you show your receipt at the shaved ice spot next door, you get 15% off! Nice PARKING It's street parking only fyi, so plan accordingly.

    The Lobster and Crab Stuffed Grilled Cheese is what caught our attention, and it did not disappoint. The bread was fluffy soft, and the sandwich was quite filling. Very good! Also wanted to try the whole fried fish, but it wasn't available on the day of our visit. We also arrived at the very last minute to order breakfast. Mom went with the Southern Fried Chicken and biscuit, which was the perfect size for her. Hubs ordered the Pork Belly Benny - poached egg cooked perfectly and liked the crispiness of the pork belly. Kiddo enjoyed the ahi tacos, and the other kiddo liked his fish and fries. Decent portions for the price, and we enjoyed the atmosphere.

    Lava shrimp
    Anna F.

    Had the fresh catch of the day grilled. Forgot to ask what the fish was and didn't take a picture. It came with white rice, broccoli and carrots. My parents ordered the fish and chips and lava shrimp which I did take a picture below. The shrimp is fresh. It's open air dining with a cool pond with goldfish.

    Down the Hatch restaurant is a seafood restaurant located in Lahaina and boy is it good! Reasonable prices for lunch with super fresh seafood that is full of flavor! We spent the day in Lahaina and we're looking for a good place to eat for lunch. Excited about the good reviews on Yelp, we decided to try Down the Hatch. We ordered the lava lava shrimp appetizer, grilled lava lava shrimp tacos, seared ahi tacos, and the fresh Ahi fish sandwich, and everything was excellent. Especially the seared Ahi tacos, was very generous on the ahi which was surprising. Everything tasted very fresh, and full of flavor. The tacos were accompanied by housemaid chips and salsa, and the Ahi fish sandwich was accompanied by fries. Simple flavors, but definitely a big hit!! My daughter just gobble down her all he fish sandwich, my husband couldn't stop talking about how good the food was! They also offer a kamaaina discount of 15%. We will definitely come back next time we are on Maui.

    POG MAI TAI FOR THE WIN This place is one of few that i would say are worth the wait. The food was yummy, the drinks were good and strong, and the outdoor/indoor seating is so nice in the Lahaina weather.

    Another recommendation from a friend. She went here last summer and really liked it so told me about it. Upon research I found out that it was on a DDD episode! (Diners, Drive-ins and Dives) So it must be good. ;-) After a long day of traveling, tired and hungry we ended up here on our first night in town. The line to order moved fairly fast and our food came out even faster! We all liked what we got and would visit again.

    Mahima D.

    Highly recommend coming here if you're in Maui! there was a 15 min wait when we came but it didn't take too long, we ordered and found a table + food came out fast + we got the shrimp po boy, lava shrimp and crispy fish tacos and everything was delicious! Big fan of the shrimp!! The po boy had soft buttered bread and came with shoe string fries yum + the mango salsa on the tacos was divine. Also the fish tacos (came with 2) were HUGE! Biggest tacos I've ever seen + nice ambiance with ponds and koi fish + outdoor seating (can get a bit hot but they have large fans and shaded seating) My second favorite meal after Tin roof!

    Outside dining
    Tiffany C.

    We were in the area shopping and I had this place bookmarked. So incredibly glad that we stopped by! We got the fish and chips and it was absolutely fabulous. It must've been the most fresh fish and chips that I ever had and one of the best I've ever had as well. The outside was battered and fried to perfection. It was a nicer thicker batter (if you like that) that was crispy on the outside, and totally moist and juicy on the inside. The pieces of fish were huge! The shoestring fries were quite good as well. I must add that the staff were extremely helpful, accommodating, and fabulous! I had a walker, but there was no way to get down the stairs, and immediately a staff member grabbed the walker and brought it down for us. They have outside dining and it's quite packed. But we ordered online and the food was ready promptly.

    Cheeseburger, tasted great

    Ask the Community - Down the Hatch Maui

    I know this location burned down due to the recent fire. Just wanted to check in with the owner if they are doing ok? I pray for their safety and well being. my thoughts are still with them all :(. sending you my hugs

    Do they take reservations?

    I'm not sure, but it seemed like a more casual place that would be Walk up...

    What do you recommend?

    For me it's breakfast. Uncles omelet or burrito. And the Bloody Mary carafe.

    Can you order Lobster and Crab grilled cheese for breakfast?

    Yes you can.

    Is the country gravy vegetarian? If not, what meat product does it contain?

    A simple phone call to the restaurant might answer this question don't ya think?

    Is this a good place for a "no-host group of 30 people (handful of kids)?

    I think it will depend on the time of day you go - peak times will be hard to get seating for that many people all at the same time.

    Do they have bottomless mimosas?

    We do not. We offer our $12 carafes between 8am-11am

    Do you have a kids' menu?

    Yes they do! For both breakfast and lunch/dinner menu. It's $8.95.

    What does the Lava Lava sauce taste like?

    It has a hint of spiciness - not like a spicy mayo

    Do you require proof of vaccination? For non vaccinated guests, is outdoor dinning an option?

    Nope! It's considered an outdoor restaurant so masks weren't required nor proof of vaccination

    What are their happy hour times?

    Our Happy Hour is 2pm-5pm Everyday!

    Hello, do you require vax cards?

    No they don't since it's "open air". I was just there 3 weeks ago FYI

    Will the restaurant be open Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

    sorry we are not in maui Call

    Hi with the capacity rules, will I need a reservation? Thanks ahead?

    There is no capacity rules it was pretty busy when I went and no reservations you can just go right up order and take a seat and wait for your food.

    How many TV's are there?

    3 or 4 at the bar. BUT SKIP THIS PLACE! There are much better places to eat.

    Anything for vegetarians? We have a vegetarian in our party.

    Salads... or a peanut better and jelly sandwich

    Is there a new shot menu / cocktail menu?

    What time do they close the kitchen?

    Hello, Do you offer any gluten free options? If so, is there shared kitchen space or dedicated fryer, etc?…

    yes all tacos can be made with hand made corn tortillas, sandwiches in gluten free buns, and salads without bread. No we have a tiny kitchen, anything fried has gluten. Mahalo

    Is this a sports bar to view early soccer games?

    This is a restaurant that has a couple TV's at the bar. It is in the middle of a small shopping and dining complex and is open air.

The appetizers were fresh and so good as well! We've eaten at multiple fancy restaurants while being here on vacation, and none of the food came close to this!

The service was friendly and welcoming as well. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite match the setting for us. Several dishes were overly salty, and the value for the portion sizes was disappointing. For example, five small prawns were $45, and the whole fried fish was $99. The calamari starter was also disappointing. It wasn't fresh calamari, but rather fried calamari strips that seemed like the type that come frozen in a bag. The bruschetta wasn't really bruschetta either. It was more like an open-faced sandwich. At these prices, I expected better quality, preparation, and portion sizes. It's definitely a place where you're paying a premium for the oceanfront view and atmosphere. Beautiful location and friendly service, but the food and overall value fell short for us.

    One of the best meals we had in Maui! I love the servers recommendations for dishes to try! She…read morewas incredible! I had the evening special--kampachi served with an incredibly creamy risotto and red wine butter sauce, and it was absolutely delicious. The fish was perfectly cooked, tender and buttery, and the risotto was so good that I'm already trying to figure out how to recreate it at home. My husband had the Ali'i mushroom pizza with artisan cheese, white truffle oil and lavender. Such an unusual combination, but it worked beautifully. I also really appreciated having wonderful gluten-free options. It's not always easy to find a meal that feels truly special when you need to eat gluten-free, and this absolutely did. We also tried the bruschetta with ahi tuna! So unique and tasty! Add the beautiful oceanside setting and this was one of those Maui dinners we'll still be talking about after we get home. We would absolutely return to Honu Oceanside on our next trip. Highly recommend!

    First off, I want to say shoutout to Astrid who was our phenomenal server! She treated us very well…read moreand made our night feel special. She knew the menu well and was great at describing the dishes. Loved the overall service here plus you get to pick sparkling or still water. Drinks were both really good! Got the lilikoi and coconut one. Grilled octopus appetizer - Omg, this was the best grilled octopus I have ever had! It was soooo tender, did not even need a knife to cut through it, and it was like butter. Cooked to perfection! Would come here again just for this. The sauces and spread also complimented the dish well. Ahi Bruschetta - this one was a bit messy to eat . The flavors were ok, I felt like there was something missing. But the ahi tasted great! Diver Scallop entree - The scallops on here were huge, but were a bit undercooked. Golden brown on both sides but the middle was more on the raw side. Still tasted amazing! I loved the garlic mashed potatoes. The sauce of the mushrooms tasted a bit too much like vinegar for my liking. Cioppino - There was a generous portion of seafood in this. The broth taste is on the lighter side. The seafood was a bit overcooked. The fish was dry and shrimp was a bit tough. Still overall decent dish, if it wasn't overcooked it would have been so good! The views are amazing especially during the sunset! Would come here again to try their other dishes and drinks.

    I learned about this spot after watching YouTube videos of Maui recs. I am so glad I listened to…read morethis one. This spot is delicious! They literally have a sign along the highway. We made a reservation about a week in advance and I highly recommend doing that because it was packed the night we went. I think they may have bar seating first come, first serve. I really liked the celebration cocktail and my husband enjoyed the Kamuela Fizz. We ordered the pork steam buns, which I loved the most. Pro tip: ask for four if you have a party of two or four. They won't charge you extra and you'll have an even number so no one is fighting for some. We also enjoyed the hot and sour soup and the Look More Funn noodles. Everything we ate was delicious. Our server was stellar. I recommend asking for their spicy chili oil, if you like heat. It paired well with everything we tried. Parking was very difficult right by the restaurant but someone at our hotel mentioned they always park in the Longs Drugs parking lot and we did that- no issue.

I initially hesitated to make a reservation because I don't love being tied to a specific time, but we ultimately decided to do a walk in. I also didn't realize the was a different menu compared to dinner. We ordered most of the dim sum items, which came with three pieces per order. The cheong fun was much larger than I expected since it was wrapped around shrimp tempura. I just wish the shrimp tails had been completely removed--the shells made it difficult to eat. The short ribs were also overcooked, which was disappointing. The standouts for me were the pork shumai, shrimp shumai, and crispy shrimp. Those were easily my favorite dishes and the best-tasting items we ordered. Service was a little mixed. Our waiter was nice, but I honestly felt like the busser took care of us more throughout the meal. He consistently checked on our table and made sure we had everything we needed. At one point, condensation from our water glasses was getting all over the table, and he noticed and brought us coasters without us even having to ask. I really appreciated how attentive he was. The best part of the experience, though, was the ocean view. It was beautiful and definitely added to the overall atmosphere of the meal. Overall, I'm glad we gave Star Noodle a try, but with the prices and the hype surrounding it, I expected more from the food. There were a few dishes we really enjoyed, but the overall experience didn't quite live up to the expectations I had going in.

    We loved Hula Grill so much that we came back for a second dinner during our Maui vacation, and it…read morewas every bit as wonderful the second time! I had the grilled Ono, and it was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It was one of those meals you're still thinking about afterward. My husband had the Chef's Tasting Menu and loved everything. He started with the seafood potstickers and Caesar salad, followed by the macadamia nut-crusted mahi mahi. The mahi mahi was gorgeous and cooked perfectly, and the macadamia crust made it something special. What we really appreciate about Hula Grill is that it delivers the whole Maui experience: wonderful fresh seafood, beautiful presentation, a relaxed atmosphere, and food that is genuinely memorable. Coming back a second time on the same vacation says a lot when there are so many restaurants to choose from on Maui. Hula Grill has definitely earned a place on our "must return" list. An absolutely fantastic meal and a wonderful way to spend one of our last evenings in Maui. Highly recommend, especially the fresh fish!

My mom got the Mai tai and I got the Yuzu Lemonade which were both heavy pours and delicious! My mom and I both got the grilled mahi mahi tacos which were delicious and my dad got the Hawaiian fruit salad which he really enjoyed. The service was impeccable and the waitress was so friendly and kind. Definitely a great place to get lunch or dinner with a gorgeous view.
