    Kalua Pork Sandwich
    Nathan M.

    Lunch prices are really competitive! Love the ocean front view, the decor, the staff...simple love all of it. This was our first visit to Duke's Beach House, but it won't be our last. Each trip we try to find a new place, this one will be a go to for happy hour and lunch going forward...at least once each visit to Maui. We were celebrating my wife's birthday so they gave us a nice big piece of delicious Kimo's Original Hula Pie after our meal...it was so big we all had plenty and were completely stuffed. The kalua pork sandwich was on point as well, the slaw complimented the sweatness of the pork perfectly!

    Great food, great drinks, great service, extraordinary view! Came on our last night and cannot say enough.

    We like the ambiance better than the food, but the food is very solid. Service was attentive and friendly while being quick. The patio was closed because of weather and they put down the shades to protect us, but it did make it very dark inside. We liked the fish sandwich and fries and the fish plate was fine, but not super remarkable. We will keep coming back for the atmosphere and views!

    Amazing! OK, let's start with the food. My husband and I both ordered the barbecue ribs and chicken plate. It was the best meal we had the entire trip. We also had the hula pie which was so good! There was something wrong with my husband's meal and almost immediately Chloe, being the superstar she is, took it back and got him a new one immediately. Then the manager came out and also apologized. This is probably the best service we have had our entire trip and they were so apologetic for something that really wasn't that big of a deal. Before we got to our table, they had a card waiting for us because it's our anniversary and all of the staff members signed it. We will definitely be back. This place was probably our favorite restaurant in all of Maui. Also, our table was beachside and probably one of the prettiest views I have had during a meal.

    We stopped into Duke's Beach House for an 11am brunch on a very rainy Maui morning. The weather kept things pretty quiet, and we were seated right away. Service was good overall--friendly and attentive--but nothing especially memorable. We were staying at the Westin and used the guest discount card, which came with a free appetizer. We went with the calamari, and it was a good start to the meal. For our mains, I had the BBQ chicken salad and my wife ordered the fish tacos. Both dishes were tasty and fresh, exactly what you'd hope for at a casual beachside spot. There was a small blip with my salad, but the staff fixed it quickly and without any hassle, which we appreciated. All in all, a solid brunch with good food and a relaxed atmosphere--even on a rainy day. Not quite a standout experience, but definitely a place we'd return to the next time we're on Maui.

    4.8 stats for Duke's! Incredible vibes and oceanfront views at Duke's! We had breakfast here everyday while staying at Honua Kai and in particular, the Beach Boys Burrito, acai bowl and banana and macadamia nut pancakes were standouts for us!

    First main dinner in Maui and it was a lovely evening out. Loved the pure Hawaiian vibes. The booth was a nice seating area and lovely place to watch sunset. The prime rib was excellent! Perfectly cooked and the horseradish was a great pairing. Worth a visit when in Maui!

    Super atmosphere right by the beach where you can eat a good meal while listening to the ocean. The food was very good. We ordered the Ahi to start but I didn't get a picture because it was so good it didn't have a chance. The prime rib and macadamia nut crusted Mahi was good. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable.

    Welcoming staff, our waitress was great, knowledgeable and friendly but I felt something was missing. Dukes is nestled on the beach in the back of the Westin, overlooking the ocean...but it was stale, the music was blah, the atmosphere was non existent and the food was okay. The breakfast and dinner menu looked promising but unfortunately we decided to go at lunch, middle of the day, so I really want to attribute that to our experience or lack thereof. Underwhelming is what it summed up to be, at least for me.

    Kimo's Original Hula Pie
    Alyssa L.

    One of our first meals in Maui! We made a reservation for 4 on our first full day and we were seated right away. I would highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time as there were quite a few parties that were waiting. The restaurant is tucked behind a resort so we were able to find guest parking in front of the hotel free of charge. It is located by the water with an amazing beachside view. We ordered the POG and mango slush, both of which were fruity and refreshing. One of the best slushies I've had in awhile. We ordered the rib & chicken plate to share. Both the chicken and ribs were juicy and marinated well. Last but not least, the hula pie was SO DELICIOUS. We had received a complimentary coupon for the hula pie from one of the concierges at the resort, even though we did not stay there! the pie was ice cream with a shave ice texture, making it a perfect treat to end the meal. We were very very satisfied with this meal (+ the free pie!) and got to take a stroll on the beach afterwards too. Would highly recommend this place for the ambiance & food!

    I had a great evening at Duke's in Lahaina. We made a reservation since it's really popular, and we were seated early by the live ukulele music--perfect sunset vibe. Service was attentive, and the view of the beach was incredible. I had the macadamia-crusted fish, which was absolutely delicious, and we shared a Hula Pie--big portion, really tasty. Everyone else enjoyed their meals, though the calamari was just a bit different from what we expected--thicker, not as crispy. Overall, a really nice experience, but given the price, I'd say it's a solid four stars.

    We came here for lunch after a whale watching tour and had a delicious lunch! The island ambience and live music were amazing ! We ordered the rib and huli huli chicken lunch plate and the fresh fish mahi mahi lunch plate. Both were delicious! We will definitely be back again to try their breakfast or dinner options.

    Hard to beat the ambiance

    Walk right in from the beach and only a 10 minute wait for a nice table near the guitarist. Very good service and delicious food. We ate here twice during our stay at HGV Ka'anapali Beach.

    What is the dress code!?

    Casual, you can wear shorts & t-shirt

    Do they have vegan options?

    Do you take reservations for group of 5?

    Not only do they they not take reservations, you will wait in line to put your name on a list and get vague answers to time estimates.

    Do they have a Happy Hoir?

    From what I can see Dukes discontinued happy hour due to the Covid pandemic.

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

    No cause it mostly out door dining

    Do you take walk ins or only reservation in the evening?

    Both. They told us they are limiting the reservations so that people can do walk in meals. They're purposely keeping walk in space open. It's nice especially since it's so difficult to get a table sometimes other places.

    Can I make reservation for 12/24-12/26 dinner for 5 persons? How to make reservation?

    You can make reservations on their website. https://www.dukesmaui.com/

    Are you offering take out right now?

    Yes. You can order on their website.

    Was there a Covid breakout here triggering the closure?

    Is it ok to come in swimwear?

    Definitely. Might want to consider more appropriate night time attire but they won't kick you out. It's the best place if you are staying in Kaanapali.

We did make a dinner reservation and so glad we did, quite a few people waiting and walk ins as well when we arrived.

Madison was our server and she did an incredible job, she was on it especially covering quite a few tables nothing lacked her attention and charm. I had yet to try a Loco Moco since we arrived in Maui, I have had this dish on the other islands and it's been good. Tonight I tried Aloha Mixed Plate Loco Moco, they offer it with a choice of steamed rice or fried rice so I wanted to try the fried rice. What a difference in flavor combos. The fried rice gave the dish a much richer taste than the steamed rice. The hamburger patty was incredible, I could taste the char noting it was not fried on a flat top. Excellent dish. My wife did the sirloin steak special prepared with mushrooms and onions and cooked to perfection. Juicy and flavorful and plenty of it. Cocktails were outstanding, we tried something different from our first visit. Loved the evening feel of the room, the night vibe with the exterior torches and landscape really brought the tropical feel. Then came an amazing sunset which you could experience from any table in the house. Couldn't leave without trying the Aloha Pie, so decadent and light. Glad we came a 2nd time, have to say we have not experienced the Hawaiian flavors like we have tasted at Aloha. Do try it for lunch or dinner but make the reservation because it would be sad to get there and not get to try it. Bravissimo Aloha! Ciao

Plates come with rice and mac salad which is a must have combo when in Maui! Customer service was good too, the server checked on us regularly and food came out fast.

While I adore and often cook a lot of Asian food I'm not such a fan of Filipino food yet around it more than any other food with family. Bad choice. After driving there from Lahaina for lunch, this dish was unavailable?? Even yelpers rave about it! So we ordered the pork belly and wanted chow fun but they only have the chicken variety? So there is a reason why the Asian restaurants we usually dine at make beef chow fun. The chicken version was bland and wanting for something else to complete it! But surely edible and nicely cooked noodles. The pork belly was ok but not slap your momma I'll go back for that good. The Mac salad was awful compared to much more affordable plate lunch places. It was flavorless, overcooked pasta, and a gritty texture! Weirdly the chairs there at the tables are low and you feel like you are at the children's table at Thanksgiving. So much so that us and two other groups including the ones that moved after ordering to our vacated table moved from the regular tables to the ones at the window with a bench on one side. We had fun joking with our replacements about that! So for the most part here it appears to be tourist clientele and not many Filipinos but my wife. I think that these exceptionally high prices for basic dishes and burgers (she asked why would people go to a Filipino restaurant and order a burger) are why not many locals eat here. And frankly most aunties make better Filipino food better at home. Glad we tried but not again. Checked off of our try try list. They didn't even have a signature dish available that we went particularly to get.

The setting alone is stunning--overlooking the Kapalua golf course with gorgeous ocean views--but the food absolutely lived up to the scenery. We started with a fresh house salad, which was simple but perfectly dressed and a great way to kick things off. For entrées: * My husband ordered the short rib, which was incredibly tender and rich with flavor. The sauce paired perfectly with the creamy mashed potatoes and roasted carrots. * My oldest son had the prime rib, and it was cooked beautifully with a great sear and topped with asparagus and a flavorful butter. * I chose the shrimp scampi, which was buttery, garlicky, and packed with shrimp. The pasta was coated in the most delicious creamy sauce and even came with toasted bread to soak up every bit of it. * My younger two ordered from the kids menu--the kids short rib and butter-and-cheese fettuccini--and both plates were generous and surprisingly elevated for kids' meals. Everything we ordered came out looking beautiful and tasting just as good. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the whole experience felt relaxed but still upscale. If you're visiting Maui and want a spot that delivers great food, amazing views, and works well for families, The Plantation House is absolutely worth the reservation.

My experience in the food/hospitality industry is that the reservation parties are always seated before a "walk in" and that didn't happen with us. Nevertheless let's talk about Leilani's, it's a bi level set up with patio dining at ground level with beach level views, live entertainment and a different dining menu. We were seated on the 2nd level with ocean view and open breezy al fresco ambience. Our server was Hannah, pleasant and ready to offer a truly fabulous dining experience. Hannah did check on us multiple times through dinner, thank you Hannah for that. We started with the chilled beets and whipped burrata, a creatively crafted use of Burrata cheese that really made this chilled beet salad delicious. The Parmesan crusted Mahi Mahi in a flavorful lemon caper sauce was so good, fish was very fresh and flaky. Coconut shrimp was cooked perfectly, packed with coconut and cooked to perfection. Not dry at all, the sauce that comes with it didn't really pair with the coconut shrimp only because my wife is not a big Curry fan. Hannah effortlessly switched sauce to a horseradish Yuzu sauce that paired nicely and definitely a better flavor combo. Kimos Hula Pie was "Ono" simply delizioso and a huge piece enough for two and we still couldn't finish it.
