Excellent food and truly above-and-beyond service!…read more I had the beef short rib with kimchi fried rice, and both were fantastic. The short rib is slow-cooked for 12 hours, and you can absolutely tell--the meat practically fell off the bone without any effort. The portions were very generous, which was exactly what we needed the night before a big paddling race! Everyone in our group really enjoyed their food. What impressed me even more was the service. I accidentally left my retainer on the table wrapped in a napkin and didn't realize it until about 30 minutes after we left. I called the restaurant, and the team was kind enough to actually search through the trash for it--and they found it! Anyone who has a retainer knows how expensive and difficult they can be to replace, so I was incredibly grateful that they were willing to go that far to help me. That level of care says a lot about the people here. Great food, generous portions, and a team that genuinely takes care of their guests. Thank you for an excellent meal and especially for going so far above and beyond for me!

The menu is quite varied, a mix of Filipino and local favorites, and portions are generous. The employees are super friendly and always check to make sure your meal is onolicious.

To find it turn mauka off Kuakini, pass McDonald's, take the first right and it's about 75 yards on the mauka side of the street on the ground floor of a building that's about 3 stories tall.

Our server was so sweet and she took great care of us, offering to put our kid's order in first and all of the little thoughtful touches you want when you are out in a packed restaurant. They have alcohol, but you have to ask (no menu). We got a couple of bottles of Asahi ($7) which was ice cold and went great with our food. For the meats we got the brisket (10/10) and the pork belly (7/10...probably because we weren't entirely sure how to cook it. Crispy/well done or medium still a little juicy? Not sure...it was all really good just not as good as the brisket). There are a lot of TVs (on every wall) and they were all tuned into UFC which was 100% fine for us but our 6 year old daughter had some questions! Thankfully live music started at 6pm and the guy was wonderful! Our kid was pretty interested in the performance AND the ice cream for dessert. $4 for a huge scoop of Tropical Dreams for the win! We will definitely be back to 4K! Pros Very reasonable prices for Hawaii Tons of easy parking Fun to cook your own meat! Full bar Very friendly service Cons No adult drink menu

It's a…read moreshort drive up the mountain from the Waikoloa resorts, and located in the newer commercial development. We came on the third night of business and the place was packed. It seemed like everyone there were friends or family of the owners. We enjoyed a few pupus at the bar while we waited for a table on this business Saturday night. The fried calamari wasn't anything special but the sashimi tasted really fresh. When our table was ready, we were ready to eat! We ordered a few meats, a fish, and the fried rice. The meats were tender and while they provided ponzu sauce and other flavorings, it was delicious with just a bit of salt. If you're looking for a quiet place for a romantic dinner, this is not your place. But if you're looking for a lively, local vibe, check them out!

I started with a glass of Champagne ($30) and ordered a bottle of 2023 Vau de Vey Chablis Premier Cru ($95) to share while we perused the menu. We ordered Crab Cakes ($34) and Kampachi Collars ($17) to start, and Butterfish Misoyaki ($65) and Mac-crusted Mahimahi ($64) for our entrees. The crab cakes were fine, but not special. The Kampachi collar was excellent! The butterfish my tablemate ordered looked great, while my crusted mahimahi was okay. I liked the risotto under the fish; I just wished for a bit more texture from the crust. We topped our meal with Roy's Melting Souffle ($17) and Mac-nut Tart ($17). Service was good, but not as good as at Merriman's two days earlier. What do I like about Roy's? The consistency of the food, regardless of location. Recommended!

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.

We had a very disappointing experience at Star Noodle…read more We arrived early for our reservation and walked around to kill some time. About 30 minutes before our reservation, we returned and attempted to order non-alcoholic drinks for our kids while waiting outside. We were told that this was not allowed--apparently, children cannot even have water or soft drinks in the outdoor area. This was an extremely strange and unnecessarily rigid policy. Even more confusing, we were told the bar area was reserved exclusively for walk-ins. Because we had a reservation, we were not allowed to sit at the bar and have a cocktail while waiting. The whole situation was bizarre and made what should have been a relaxed start to dinner unnecessarily uncomfortable. The food may be good, but the customer experience and inflexible policies left a very poor impression.

New fav restaurant on Maui!…read more Tiana was our lovely waitress. Delicious food starting with the heirloom tomatoes, followed by the garlic Szechuan noodles, Korean fried chicken with Kochujang glaze and house made chocolate miso ice cream! Great service and food was so good! 45 minute drive from Kaanapali but it was so worth it! We enjoyed the food so much we ordered another garlic Szechuan noodles to take back to the hotel with us for tomorrow's lunch and to go with our leftover chicken!

As many do I spent an exorbitant amount of time researching accommodations, excursions, and…read morerestaurants. We were spending 8 days on Maui, and Lineage was to be the capstone meal on the stay. Reservations were made 6 weeks in advance, and were arrived at promptly. The party consisted of my wife, 2 daughters (10 and 12), and I. We were seated, and told whom our waiter would be. At which point our waiter and another member of the staff come from the kitchen. The waiter 'greets us', takes our drink menu, and leaves. He calls back to the other member of the staff, and says "you were right". His demeanor was cold, smug, and condescending. He was PUSHING a $185 8oz Wagyu steak like there was a prize for selling it. The menu is limited, but we made our selections outside of his "recommendations". The only bright spot in the meal was the assistant that helped our waiter throughout the meal. He was warm, engaging, funny, and all around a great human. He took his time, and asked us where we were from etc. The meal was good, but not great. The experience with the waiter aside. We ordered the chicken (2), noodles, and the up country salad. The food was fresh and flavorful, but not earth shattering. I still tipped the waiter over 20%, but I also made a point to find the assistant and tip him separately. He salvaged the meal, and should be a lead waiter!

The order came out fairly quickly and as you can see from the pic, its a large portion - I couldnt finish it in two sittings. The chicken was not as crunchy as I would have liked, but it tasted great and was moist and tender inside. The lack of crunchiness may have been my fault since I added a little extra Sriracha on top of everything. I recommend Da Braddahz Grinds and will be back!
