While we were walking the Kaanapali Beach walkway we noticed a great dining area offering an…read moreawesome vibe and said we will have to come back here. So today we walked over to check out the Ulu Kitchen located in the Westin Maui. Short walk from the Marriott Maui Ocean Club down the pathway. Sat on the deck overlooking the beach and took in the ocean breezes. Staff were very attentive and quick to get us settled in to our table. Our server Brandon happily took our drink order bringing back some amazingly cocktails. The Mai Tai had a decadent foam on top unlike your normal Mai Tai that truly made the cocktail unique. Brandon took our order and we took in the beautiful Kaanapali coast and people watched, our food came and we started with a Tako (octopus) prepared in an escargot style served with house made focaccia bread. Great way to start and the sauce full of garlic and butter. The salad was great with the option of chicken or local fish and I took the fish. The smash burger was da bomb! Great quality beef on A soft brioche bun, the French fries had a unique flavor twist prepared with a little rosemary, very good. Loved the feel of the room (if you call it that-solid roof flowing onto lattice and then palapa style umbrellas and completely open on 3 sides. Great music in the background with the ocean views ocean breezes superb cocktails and delizioso food. This was our "Linner" late lunch and early dinner. Bravissimo Ulu Kitchen not only will we be coming back and staying at the Westin we will be coming back to your cucina to dine again. Mahalo Nui Loa. Ciao

Very popular, cute spot with incredible views right on the Kaanapali boardwalk. The restaurant is…read moreaccessible through the pedestrian path or through the Westin. If you make reservations but are not staying at the hotel, you can have the restaurant validate your valet parking ($40). Our server, Brian, was very friendly and offered his recommendations. Overall the food was good, but there were definitely some oversalting issues. It seemed like the different components of the dish were seasoned but not tasted as a whole - leading to salt being slightly overpowering. Pricing is expected for the location. They have live music right next door and there's plenty of walking/shopping opportunities for post meal.

Conveniently located inside Whalers Village, this is a must-visit whenever you're in Maui. I've…read morebeen here multiple times, and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. If you're looking for a refreshing breakfast or snack after the beach, their açaí bowls are some of the best on the island. We tried two different bowls, and both were beautifully presented and loaded with fresh fruit. The açaí was perfectly blended and topped with sweet papaya, raspberries, toasted coconut, and a creamy scoop of frozen yogurt. The other bowl was topped with fresh bananas, strawberries, and blueberries, little bit of honey to add some sweetness, making it light and refreshing. Everything was made fresh, the portions were generous, and the presentation was appreciated--even decorated with fresh orchid flowers. One of the best parts is that you can customize your bowl exactly how you like it. They also offer flavorful coffee drinks that pair perfectly with breakfast. It's a walk-up counter where you order first, and there's plenty of indoor seating to relax and enjoy your meal. The staff was friendly, and the service was quick. We look forward to coming back every time we visit Maui!

The coffee also came out very quickly but I will say if you are in a rush I would recommend ordering an açaí bowl, as those came out much faster than the cooked food. For coffee, I ordered an iced vanilla latte and it was just okay. However, my sister ordered the iced island latte and it was very good just was more dessert like to me! For food I had the pesto chicken sandwich and it was super good and was a very nice portion. Overall I would come back again but I am not sure if it was completely worth the hype/wait.

Very casual service. We ordered: Mahi Mahi Lemon Caper Sautée: 1/10 The fish just tasted extremely bland not fresh tough and the lemon sauce just made it wet but added in no flavor as well. Rice was mushy tasted overcooked Mac salad was decent but not the traditional Mac salad flavor. Kung Pao Chicken: 2/10 Small pieces of chicken mostly fried so very little chicken this dish had a good amount of flavor because it was sweet. Chicken and shrimp fried rice: 1/10 Rice was so mushy quality and freshness is just not there. Overall this was not our best meal in Maui I had seen the mixed reviews and wanted to give it a try unfortunately I would no eat here again just because it was not just one dish that lacked quality freshness and flavor it was everything I ordered.

I got the short rib loco moco. Presentation wasn't the best, it looked dumped on the plate, but everything was pretty good flavor wise except the rice, it was hard as a rock and hubby agreed. I let the server know and she took my plate away. I wish she would've left it and just brought me a side of new rice. It took a while though for me to get my new plate so I sat there w/o food for a while. By the time I got my food, hubby was done w/his. Also our server hardly checked on us and I had to ask other servers if they could go get our server. water refills were scarce, hard to come by, again, the server. I think also b/c where were sat, it wasn't in a good spot. Don't see myself coming back here though as there's plenty other breakfast places in Maui.
