I love Gilligan's Bar and Grill. It is fun and casual. The staff there are all friendly and the food is great. Love the live music. They are also kid friendly and have an outdoor area. Would highly recommend Gilligan's to everyone that loves a good time, good food and drinks. read more

Great find off the beaten path! Thankfully a locals spot, away from tourist row. Genuinely warm wait staff and tasty food. Good menu for brunch and a horseradish kissed bloody mary. Delish. Football on at every corner ~ so glad we found it! read more

Gilligans Bar & Grill - Bloody Mary goodness - Bars Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

This place just opened not too long ago. The night I went they had karaoke. You can pick any song to sing and sing it. I did not participate but might be back with some family to try...lol. The also have live music on some of the other nights. I'm glad to see that they are trying to give more options for more night life on Maui. The food was not great. I did have the hummus appetizer and it was a lot of delicious hummus topped with cucumbers and feta. I also tried the this punch drink which was good. For dinner my husband had the pork chops at least he thought he was getting more then one piece. Turned out to be only one piece lol. I had a fish sandwich that was not that great. I would definitely like to come back for drinks and entertainment. read more

The luau was great! I have never been to one and this was a fun first experience. There was a great selection of food and drink! read more

Great luau.wonderful good and lots of choices. the dancers were wonderful and the narrator did a wonderful job.

We had a fun time at the luau, it was much as the reviews said. The food was OK, the drinks were OK, but the entertainment and service was outstanding. I was confused when we were told that we would be seated in the order we checked in, and we checked in almost first but were seated in the last row. Also, as the reviews said, we couldn't see from the neck down of the dancers and entertainers and if you built a raised stage, everyone could see...please do that and this would be a much higher rated review! We loved our server Charles! The view of upcountry and the volcano was beautiful and all in all it was a very fun night...thank you! #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth read more

Most welcoming group of staff and performers! Our first luau was unforgettable. Great food and even better drinks.

Really enjoyed Gillian's Bar & Grill. The event is at the golf course in Kihei, and smaller and more intimate than most Luau's that I've attended. The wait staff was very nice and helpful. The food was plentiful and the entertainment was exemplary. The best dancers I've see in quite a while. Better yet, I was able to walk back to our condo... read more

We suppose to have VIP tables next to the stage but was away. We were suppose to be or told to be on round tables but on the end of a long table. The fish was dry and bland. The chicken was overcooked and stringy. The rice was dry. They ran out of dessert. They ran out of silverware. Drinks were watered down. The show was good. read more

I'd give their luau zero stars, but the guy at the end twirled his flaming batons, so there's that. You're mostly paying for the performers and the drinks, I won't even acknowledge the so-called 'buffet', which is just depressing. We weren't drinking, so a couple of hundred down the drain for an ok show and a low-grade spread is just plain theft. Don't take the bait. read more

Amazing staff and food was delicious! Show was spectacular! #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth

Excellent bar staff. Very polite and attentive. Loved the frickels the batter the pickles were fried in was delicious . #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth read more

Attended puppy bowl yesterday. Had a great time. I love that they allow dogs and have a dog menu. Breakfast was great. #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth read more

We had a great time at Gilligan's new lu'au. What a great experience from the check in to the food to the show everything was top notch. The dancers were fantastic and their Costumes were spectacular. We truly enjoyed everything I would recommend highly hi Lee read more

Great food, wait staff and live band! I love the Cobb salad. Thank you! #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth

Worst Cobb Salad Ever! They basically took old bagged lettuce and threw it in a bowl, mixed it with cheap dressing, added a Few bacon bits, less than an inch of coarsely chopped cucumber and a tomato slice chopped up, a few whole hard boiled eggs and served it up. I paid extra for the chicken, the only edible part. I asked about bacon, the "bacon is in there." Extra dressing? Really cheap awful " blue cheese." Nothing about this was even presentable let alone worthy of their or my time and money. The staff were great, they deserve better. Do Not Order Food! I'd have sent it back but I was with a friend and didn't want to make a scene. read more

Gilligans Bar & Grill - "Cobb Salad". Sheesh!!!! - Bars Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Food for Luau was barely edible, Music was good dancers were good, show was worth the price. Skip dinner. Enjoy the show!

A Luau is a must in Hawaii!! Everyone was so kind and helpful! The servers were amazing! Make sure you bring cash to put in the tip jars! They deserve it! The food was really good as well and PLENTY of it. We sat in the last row and honestly had a great view. There are so many different luau dances that you get to experience. Drift sky recommend on going and is a more affordable option. read more

Fairly disappointing -- various problems. First, all their menu items are secretly "à la carte", so if you order a burger, you get nothing --zilch-- with it. Fries? add $6.00. Salad? add $6.00. If you order the mysterious fried pickles app -- woe betide those who want more than the miniscule dish of dipping sauce, there is an upcharge to get a refill. Now getting back to the burgers, here is a HIGHLY irritating and stupid thing: the regular burger comes with regular fillings i.e. lettuce tomato etc. However the premium "mushroom swiss" comes completely dry -- no lettuce, no tomato, no sauce, no nothing. Kind of like regressing to your bachelor days cooking in the dorm. Also when well drinks start at $17.00, that is not really something to recommend. Basically they are out to chisel you and nickel-and-dime you with very prosaic basic bar food at huge (hidden) price premiums. Now I guess I wonder why we were the only ones there at lunch recently -- could be an awesome location but not if you are gouging and ripping off the clientele. Staff was sweet but fairly naive about drinks & the vagaries of the bar business, not that that mattered to us -- good attitude goes a long way, lots of smiles and "trying" -- that helps a bit. That notwithstanding Maui has just come out of 3 years of covid so we have to give people credit for staying in business and trying to make it work -- this place is fine if you want bar food and are not particular, want alcohol and are not particular, and are not price-sensitive about any of the above. Not a michelin star but an ok place to get drunk with friends if you're not too fancy. So not really BAD -- but not really good. Maybe with time things will perk up? Great location on the golf course. So bank on about $125 for a light burger lunch for 2, with a few beverages. read more

This was my first time in Hawaii and also my first Luau, so I don't have another experience to compare it to. The performers were entertaining and did a good job! The food was just ok. The drinks were weak... after 3 cocktails in less than two hours, I couldn't feel any alcohol effects (we even Uber'd to/from the venue so that we could drink responsibly, ended up being unnecessary). For $200+ per person, I expected better food and drinks. I would not recommend this Luau to others... either spend more at a resort Luau or just don't go to one at all :( read more

The blackened fish sandwich was amazing! I brought it home for my son and he loved it. I ended up going back and getting a burger! One of the best tasting i've had! I wasn't expecting it to be at a golf course but parking was very easy and the location was very nice. It is set higher so the view of the ocean was beautiful. It would be a great place for happy hour and to watch the sunset. read more

We visited this place while on vacation. I had no idea it was attached to a golf course. The restaurant was okay. My food was tasty. The wings and Mac and cheese were tasty. My only complaint was it was open mic night or something. As we were entering the restaurant a nice lady stopped us and said there is crude humor going on inside!!! We didn't know what that meant until we got inside. So they had 2 1/2 amateur comedians perform. The first person Was not sure what he was talking about at all !!! The second person spent his whole time talking about his private parts. It was quite off putting. He even mentioned that he must not be good because "the lady in the back keeps making faces." I was the lady in the back!!! The third person just got up there because he was drunk. Lol anyway our server was good. But I won't be going back on a Friday! They also had country music outside . There is a $15 cover charge. read more

We had an absolute blast at Gilligan's. The service was excellent, the food was fabulous and the entertainment was amazing. Definitely recommend and will be back to visit again! #gilligansmaui #buzzybooth read more

Food and service was excellent! The luau was very entertaining! We really enjoy the luau! Excellent show. The atmosphere of Gilligan's Bar & Grill was excellent too! read more

We came here before when it was sunset or something along those lines. This time it was just a whim and we wanted something other than the normal. Glad we did. The drink special happy hour daily 1-5pm is great. Lots of options on the mixed drinks as well as beers. We had salad and pork chops. Fried shrimp and mozzarella. Overall not as expensive as I was expecting. We will definitely be back and hopefully catch the sunset next time. read more

Love this hidden gem so much! Had a wonderful lunch here after golfing and the service and food were both great. My server, Joan, was amazing!!! So attentive and sweet and made sure our meal was perfect. There are few restaurants on Maui with good service so I was so happy to find this one! read more

Best place EVER.. in fact the only things could make it even more awesome would be a shark tank, a 40 foot water slide, and pole dancers.. this is the newest, best, go to, hang out hide out spot on island.. burgers so good you'll smack your momma in the mouff for not makin em like that.. ice cold drafts and bottles galore.. they ain't even finished all the renovations and add on and the place is poppin.. Live music and comedy even.. I cant say enough about this place, its amazing.. why anyone would pass this place to hit that tourist trap up the hill is beyond me.. but that just leaves us more room to dance.. #cantstopwontstop read more

nothing good about the luau here, charged over $150 per person, food was horrible, entertainment sucks, have the radio on not even Hawaii music. Don't buy this luau, I was very disappointed. read more

Great place to come and have a an easy afternoon. Also(!) , they have live music played by local favorites every other weekend while the other ones they have live magic!! I can't think of a better place to unwind and the view is amazing at sunset! Also Leah is great! Stop on and say hello!! read more

We had a group of 10. Great entertainment, service and food! The setting is on a golf course.

Great upgrade from what this restaurant used to be. Really enjoyed the obviously not frozen made with care food. Great burgers! And my husband is a burger nut. The amazing views and Terry our server took such great care of us. Swift refills on drinks and food came out in an appropriate amount of time. We live in Kihei and will be back! read more

First off I will start by saying WAFFLE FRIES!! This place has waffle fries and they are delicious and I'm stoked! We shared the hummus appetizer. The hummus is Made in house and they cut up fresh cucumber tomato and onions for it. It also has olives, feta, and pita so it is quite filling. You can leave off the feta to make it VEGAN. I ordered the fish-and-chips entree and it was bomb. THe fish was handbreaded and it was light and crispy and fluffy all at the same time! I think it was mahi mahi and I would definitely order it again. Plenty to share. My friend ordered the pulled pork sandwich and really enjoyed it. He got a side of the deviled Mac salad and I sampled it, quite tasty. They have several beers on draft and an extensive cocktail menu as well as several SELTZERS, for my fellow basics :) I was rubbernecking and watching all the food leave the kitchen and I will say the portion sizes are BIG, definitely worth the money, which is always nice on this island. Lastly, the views are incredible!! This is the sunset location and I'm so glad this place is open. We'll be back, probably for happy hour, and will stay through sunset again cause it is not to be missed read more

Stopped in here after family played some golf and we were really pleased. The service was great and the food was great too. They have nice seating and it was very relaxing after watching the family play golf. The BBQ pulled pork sandwich was fantastic and of course we had to get the fried pickles. Finding fried pickles is kind of hard back at home. We will be back when we visit again. read more

Was there recently and what a huge disappointment. Poor service and mediocre food. Maybe it's new but their problems are real.

Fantastic luau. Food was fantastic. Did the VIP seating but not a bad seat in the house. Staff very accommodating. Great place to take in a beautiful sunset. read more

Where do I begin? Seating at picnic tables, no coasters for our drinks, messed up an order, waitress disappeared and didn't check on us, bathroom was deplorable. Food was average. Kula pulled pork was just regular pulled pork with big chunks of fat. Doubtful I'll be back during my stay. read more

My wife and I stopped by last night for dinner and drinks. Upon arriving we noticed a table with a bucket on top catching water from the overhead air conditioner. Inside looks old and dated but decided to stay. The drinks were way to sweet but the the food was good. The service was beyond terrible. During our meal had to wave my arms to flag down our server to order another drink. After our meal the manager cleared our plates server not around. Then waited for the check. And waited and waited. Finally got the attention of the manager And explained we've been waiting forour check since he cleared the plates. Finally got the bill paid. Won't be going back. We live here on the island and go to dinner regularly. read more
