One of the best meals I had when my family visited Maui. Came right after our flight in and it was amazing!! Everything was so flavorful and the meat was cooked perfectly. We got a couple of dishes and I loved them all. Especially the Hawaiian style beef cheek and poi stew, octopus, and the seafood laulau!! The beef was super tender and paired nicely with the sauce. Octopus was not chewy and the laulau was sooo well balanced. Great service, waiters were very friendly and loved the view of the pool right behind the restaurant.
The hotel is beautiful when arriving. When we approached the restaurant, I didn't expect it to be open air seating. I thought it was enclosed. We were greeted and seated quickly. The spread of the brunch buffet is not as grand as other buffets. They have sections for breakfast items, local food items, raw fish, poke, sushi, dessert, and a carving station. The carving station was roast beef. Of the dishes enjoyed were the roast beef, local dishes, and poke. The roast beef was cooked good but needed salt. The creamy horseradish sauce and ad jus added additional flavor but not the saltiness I needed. The char sui and mochiko chicken were also tasty. The tuna poke and spicy shrimp poke were also good. As it was a nice day, it was enjoyable to be seated outside. It was not hot nor the sun blazing above. Our table overlook the swimming pool area. Our wait staff cleared and replaced our dirty dishes and cutlery. And refreshed our drinks when it was low. It was a enjoyable stop in Maui for us.
Haven't been to Kō since the menu change and was excited to try the new items. Seafood Lau Lau: everything was cooked to perfection and broth was very tasty (ask for a side of white rice!) It came with a side of Lomi Tomatoe and Sweet Potato Mash but it could honestly do without those two. Korean Short Ribs: very tasty and soft. Kim Chee Fried rice and the banchans it came with was good too. Everything went well together. Grandma's Kasumi's Fried Chicken: chicken had a good crust on it! It's a big portion of chicken as well, plus everything it came with is filling. Pinoy Honey Toast: wasn't what we were expecting. The Corn flavored ice cream is interesting, wasn't our cup of tea. The Ube Ice Cream was lacking Ube flavoring. Kulolo Malasadas: it would have been so so good if there was more Kulolo in it and less of the Coconut Cream, or have the Coconut Cream as a dipping sauce. Service is always good, we have never had any issues even in the past visits.
I researched the best restaurants in Wailea before our trip, and dining at Ko turned out to be one of the most special and memorable experiences of our stay. We were seated at an exceptional table overlooking the adults-only pool. As evening fell and the tiki torches were lit, the view over the water was quietly magical. Our server, Connie, was genuinely warm and welcoming. She surprised us with a Happy Anniversary card featuring a painting of the hotel, signed by 30 Ko staff members. Each signature was done with care and personality--one even whimsically shaped like a cat. I loved it so much that I have the card hanging in my home. Connie explained the menu clearly and thoughtfully, including several items we hadn't encountered before. We started with the venison lumpia, an elevated take on a spring roll, and shared the wagyu lettuce wraps. Sharing was the right choice--the dish came with four types of lettuce, yuzu leaves, fern greens, a rectangular pan of rice, and more than enough beautifully prepared wagyu for two. Earlier in the week, a guest I met at a lei-making class mentioned she had ordered the wagyu steak at Ko twice. I understand why. For dessert, the strawberry--shaped like an actual strawberry--was both beautiful and inventive, light rather than heavy, and a perfect ending. Peni, the manager, also stopped by our table to say hello, which added another thoughtful touch to the evening. Thank you to everyone at Ko who made this dinner so memorable. It remains one of my happiest travel memories and truly lives in my heart.
Ko is a great spot for a moderately upscale family dinner! We really liked the fried chicken with Mac and cheese. Additionally the hostess was very nice to accommodate us with a quieter table. We also like the ahi tuna appetizer and the Seafood Lau Lau was presented beautifully. The only thing that maybe was a skip for me were the mocktails as they didn't feel worth the price. The service was very friendly and the service was nice.
The food was fantastic! Ambiance is amazing! Great restaurant! To start we ordered the lavender honey crispy shrimp, Venison lumpia, and Makeke salad to start. They were all delicious, fresh, and well worth getting. We got the house punch and the daiquiri. The punch was a bit strong for our liking, but the daiquiri might have been the best drink we've ever had. We kept ordering them! For entrées we ordered the Seafood Laulau, braised short ribs, and the crispy kona kanpachi. The seafood was fresh, hummus and the kanpachi was a wonderful bite together. The short ribs were super tender and rich. We loved every bit of it. Our waiter Misty was attentive and helpful. She recommended the honey toast and the malasadas for dessert and she was right! They were so good. A huge thank you to Silvia! So friendly and helpful. She really made a difference in our evening. Appreciate the excellent service! The location of the restaurant is great. Open air, sea breeze, and beautiful plants all around.
From the moment we arrived at Kō, we felt the true spirit of aloha. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and filled with the kind of hospitality that reminds you why dining in Wailea is so special. But what truly elevated our evening was the kuleana and heart shown by the entire team. Peni, the Assistant GM, embodied poʻokela (excellence) in every way -- greeting us with genuine warmth and making us feel like part of the ʻohana from the start. Serena provided malama pono-level service, caring for us with attention and thoughtfulness. James was friendly, engaging, and always present at the right moments, bringing such a comfortable vibe to the table. Roland checked in throughout the evening, ensuring everything was maikaʻi loa (very good) and to our liking. And Chef delivered dishes that were absolutely next level -- rooted in local flavors, beautifully prepared, and crafted with real passion for Hawaiʻi's culinary traditions. From the food to the service, every detail at Kō reflected aloha, intention, and excellence. If you're in Wailea, this is truly a must-dine experience -- a place where you are treated like ʻohana and leave with a full heart. Mahalo nui loa to the entire Kō team -- we will definitely be back!
This place was great to stop at for happy hour! The drinks were good. The edamame was so yummy- very bare bones served cold with salt and lemon juice but it was addicting. Hurricane fries are always delightful and I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the tuna roll! Very fresh. No super groundbreaking flavors but who can say no to sushi. Would recommend!
Really a wonderful meal tonight we started off with some sushi, which had Ahi at the center and a tempura outside finish. My parter had Shiso sour and I had the little Koi Lilikoi margarita both were good flavorful, but not overpowering. It's a nice open air restaurant, and we got to see the holiday decorations from our table. My partner had the lobster tempura and I had the mar jon fish mine came with some local mushrooms that were super tasty and I love the texture. Cas our server was attentive and warm. She did a little mini wine tasting for us of what would go best with our fish. She recommended for dessert the ultimate banana bread which is topped with fantastic homemade ice cream and rum sauce. The food runner put a show pouring the rum sauce over the ice cream. It was fun. I liked the ice cream's marshmallow is like flavor marshmallow. The vanilla rum the pecans just made it really creamy texture . This is something I would not miss. It was great pre-holiday dinner out.
Wow!!! Such fantastic views!! Figure out what time sunset will be and get yourself to a table to catch the incredible views! The food was fantastic! We got the lau lau and the Mahi Mahi special. All fantastic but what really took the cake (or the bread) was the dessert. The banana bread is something my partner will still not shut up about and will tell anyone who will listen even now - 3 months after our visit. The service was hit and miss. The manager was phenomenal and checked on us and joked with us. He did a great job of making sure everyone was having a good time. Our server seemed to keep forgetting about us. He was super at attentive to another couple who sat down after us, ordered after us, and got each of their courses before us. It wasn't a kitchen issue, he just kept checking on them more and forgetting about us even though we were just a table over from them. He'd often walk by and forget about our empty plates, empty water glasses and empty cocktail glasses. It didn't feel great to not feel like our business or experience was valued.
We dined here twice during our stay at the Fairmont Kea Lani and had amazing experiences both times. The first time we came for dinner we were served by Z who provided exceptional service. He took his time in explaining the different items on the menu and was very attentive. We got the octopus appetizer to start, which was light and delicious! For entrees I got the mahi mahi in the lemongrass curry which was overall good, the curry was delicious though the mahi mahi was a bit plain. Hubby got the lau lau and enjoyed it. Presentation was beautiful! The second time we came for dinner during a super busy evening but they were able to get us in at the bar (our fault for not making reservations). I didn't get the names of the bartenders but it was a man and a woman and they were both great at checking on us and providing anything we needed. We got the lavender honey shrimp as an appetizer - AMAZING, so crisp and flavorful. I ordered the pancit for my entree which was flavorful, the steak and shrimp were great and the noodles and sauce it came with were delicious! Hubby got the rib eye and said his steak was one of the best steaks he's ever had. We had the banana bread dessert and YUM it was delicious without being overly sweet, the perfect way to end the meal. The food did take a little while to come out but it was super busy. Since we were staying at the Fairmont, our daughter who is under 2 ate here for free. She enjoyed her beef skewer entree (we got this both times)! And they provided coloring pages and crayons which was helpful to help keep her entertained. Overall highly recommend this restaurant for a fancy meal! I enjoyed the food more the second time but overall had positive experiences both times.

I started off with a liliqoa margarita (passionfruit) which was excellent The menu has an Indian & Asian influence. My brother in law had the coconut soup. I had the fresh catch of the day, seabass. They offer it with 3 different preparations. I had the macadamia nut crust, which was excellent. It came with bok choy and Hawaiian sweet potato mash (yum) My sister and mother had the Asian noodles with shrimp and scallops. I tasted it, great spices and flavors. For dessert we had the banana bar with vanilla ice cream. It tasted like a banana cake with chocolate. It was really good My sister had the passion fruit cheesecake. It was perfectly sweet and tart. I did not taste the cheesecake, it reminded me more of a panna cota. read more
Great (albeit pricey) dining experience! Service staff were alert and professional the entire evening. Very romantic in the evening time as well! Items we ordered (as of 9/2021) - Oishi Sushi - $29 - The sushi is great and very fresh. Tempura batter is very light and doesn't distract from the quality of the sushi. Is it worth $29 though? Next time we'd probably give it a pass though it's still delicious. - Specialty fish of the day simmered in a lemon grass coconut broth - MRKT price - The fish (unfortunately the name escapes me) was very tender and delicate. The broth it came with was fantastic with a robust coconut and lemon grass flavor. If you like either ingredients this is a dish to try! - Paniolo Bone-In Ribye - $59 - This was one of the best steaks I've had. Very tender and perfectly good. The sweet potato mash (purple in color!) was a perfect accompaniment to the dish. This is a must have for steak lovers! Overall we had a great evening (the complimentary bread was also great with an assortment of spreads to try). If you're staying at the Fairmont then this place is a no brainer to try! read more

Aloha and thank you for your fantastic review, Bob. I'm still smiling…
Phenomenal location with an amazing view and great food. However that isn't the best part. The staff here from Chef Tylun Pang to the hostess to the waitstaff and servers were top class. They shine and demonstrate aloha in a genuine way ...not the "we pretend because we have to since this is Hawaii". They were more than willing to work with us to make sure my husband's, delayed a year due to COVID, 60th birthday was special. Again, the location and food were spectacular but its the staff who made the night memorable and special. I dont really have other words than that. It would diminish how great this crew is. P.S. my husband says I cant leave a review without making sure that I talk about the KOBE Beef, Kim Chee and fragrant rice appetizer. Yes it was amazing, as was pretty much everything else BUT it was his favorite and it is in a class of its own. read more

PHENOMENAL. I came here on a solo self date and had the most pleasurable dining experience. Everything was top notch from the service, to the drinks, to the food! I ordered the coconut curry soup to start, the tofu lau lau wrapped in ti leaves, and two drinks, didn't even have room for dessert, which I'm certain would've been delicious! Everything was so flavorful and quality. I loved how attentive and personable all of the staff were and the restaurant itself is in a beautiful location. 10/10 would recommend! read more

We came to Kō for drinks only. Offering no vegetarian options on their menu except maybe for an edamame appetizer, we knew this would not be a place to have a meal Drinks on the other hand were fruity & fun. We tried "the long paddle in" because you offer anything with lilikoi, we are going to be fans. This also had raspberry & some rum & it was sweet & tart & refreshing on a hot poolside day Also tried their lilikoi margarita & it was repeat-worthy Happy Hour serves food only on their specials menu but you can definitely enjoy a cocktail alongside or get it to go, as we did read more

Phenomenal meal with a beautiful view. The ahi seared on a rock was a great way to start, and the fish was excellent quality. The lumpia was also tasty with a side of some pickled vegetables with raisins. The mains we got were both seafood mixes - one in a tomato saffron broth, and the other was a version of Lau Lau with coconut milk. Both were fantastic. read more

Made the trek down to Wailea this morning despite hurricane Hone. It was worth it. Fantastic service by Leanne, great to see Moki on the floor, Chef Aris behind the omelettes. So much Ono food, ate a dozen tempura shrimp and many sashimi bowls. the breakfast martini is a must have. live music, mellow vibe. Appreciate the kamaaina love. See you folks again soon. read more

Unlike some of the reviewers, my friend and I had a great time. Staff was really nice, sunset view was great, and the water service never stopped. We arrived at 5:30pm with reservations and it wasn't too crowded. Also wasn't noisy and the outdoor patio was shaded so it wasn't too hot or too cold. The complimentary bread was super interesting with a fluffy sweet potato center, crispy crackers and three different dips: a lavender honey butter, a kbbq sauce, and a refreshing green sauce. I ordered the zarzuela which was a Portuguese tomato soup in a black kettle with 2 lemon slices, 2 sourdough slices, one lobster tail, about three shrimp, a couple of scallops, some chopped up chorizo, 2 muscles, about 4 clams and red pepper bits. Maybe some onion. Very savory and would go well with the bowl of Jasmine rice. Shrimp and scallops were cooked perfectly but the lobster was okay. I think it would've been better grilled. They provide a separate bowl for shells which was convenient. Also ordered the lilikoi cheesecake which was very soft but tangy and sweet. Would've been better with more granola but no complaints. The best dessert was definitely the pineapple creme brulee though. Tangier than normal creme brulee and the presentation was cute. Overall, fantastic experience and our server, Zebedee, was sweet and talked about the history of Ko and the food very well. He checked on us often too. Definitely recommend him when you visit. read more

Pass: - Miso-stoop soup: $16 for generic miso soup plus a few pieces of spinach Okay: - Lobster tempura: decent lobster quality but bland in both meat and tempura batter, comes with some sauces so you can blame yourself if you dip in the wrong one Good: - Fresh catch in lemongrass coconut broth: probably the best dish I had in Maui, the broth was so good with both the fish and garlic rice Meh ambiance for finer-dining environment, meh service and didn't even have utensils for half the time I sat there.

Hubby and I are Gluten free and dairy free and they had lots of options for us. The staff here are amazing, the lady who was serving us (Nannette) was very attentive to our food allergies also. We ordered the seared ahi on the rock (highly recommend), the Zarzuela (highly recommend), the hamachi, and the pork chop(highly recommend). Seared ahi: cooking it on the stone was a fun little experience an the fish was very fresh and the sauce you dip in was amazing. Hamachi: the ponzu sauce and hamachi was good but not great, the daikon that comes with it overpowers the flavor of the hamachi a bit. Zarzuela: the broth is light but packs a punch in flavor and they do not skimp on the seafood inside this dish. Worth every penny and delicious. (Forgot to take a picture) Pork chop: the pork chop was Smokey and had a slight sweet glaze and oh so juicy and not over cooked. read more

Instead of a traditional dinner (appetizer + entree), we decided to go with small plates only which turned out to be an excellent choice. We ordered the Kona Kanpachi Hawaiian Poke, Oishi Sushi, Ahi on the Rock, Kobe & Kimchee, and Chicken & Mushroom Lumpia (the last three stood out for me). They also gave us a complimentary Coconut Gelato Malasada for our upcoming 9th wedding anniversary. My wife ordered the E Komo Mai Tai and I ordered the Makalapua. Delicious! read more

5 stars for service and the grilled octopus. The seafood lau lau was bland and underwhelming. I wasn't too fond of the mashed ube texture with the seafood. Over priced filipino influenced Hawaiian food catered to tourists staying on the resort. Drinks were also on the pricey side, but good. Overall, not bad, but there are better options on the island if you venture out. read more

Our server Lucie was good. We usually tip 20% but did 25% because it's Thanksgiving today. Curry soup was very tasty. My wife's monchong fish was very good as well was the risotto. I got the ribeye steak, market price, which was $89. The steak looked really good, but unfortunately was not very good. I ordered medium, it was at least medium well verging on well done. It was not tender at all, clearly not a prime steak but likely choice. I could barely cut it with my steak knife. My wife agreed with my assessment. It was like eating a steak I got at Safeway. When I go out, and especially when I spend $89, it better be very good. I chose what I thought are some of the best places to eat while visiting Maui, and this was probably the most disappointing. (Loved Mamas and Banyan Tree. Dukes and Roy's was pretty good). We really did like the ambience though. My son loved his beef skewers on the kids menu. They have a really nice kids menu. read more

We were looking for a food place to have dinner and picked Ko which we reserved using OpenTable. They offer complementary valet parking but due to the current pandemic situation we decided to self parking at a lot a little further away and walked to the lobby of the resort. When we arrived at the restaurant we had our temperature taken before the receptionist led us to our table. I could see all staff there were properly wearing a face mask that covered both their mouth and nose. After we seated at our table we were also provided with 2 small plates to put our mask on. That was a very nice and considerate move and one that I have not seen elsewhere. We ordered Ahi on the Rock as our appetizer. It is a dish with 3 decent sized ahi meat and a very hot stone. You have to grill the ahi on the rock yourself. This was fun and tasty. For the main course we ordered daily special and seafood laulau. Seafood laulau, as you can imagine, was fish, shrimp, scallops wrapped in taro leaves. It was delicious and we loved it. What truly stood out was the daily special. It was grilled fish, shrimp, scallops on kimchi fried rice. It was so delicious we almost wanted to order another one. The kimchi fried rich was especially tasty. Ko also offers a more quiet and cozy ambient compare to Ka'ana Kitchen. They each have their pros and cons but I personally fine Ko to be a better place for conversation and spend the night talking. Overall I think this is a good place and I definitely recommend anyone visiting Maui to make a reservation and dine here for a night. read more
This was an absolutely amazing meal. Definitely come for sunset and request a table overlooking the pool and palm trees. The ambiance is the best part, but the food and drinks lived up as well!! Definitely get the ahi on the rock- it was as fun as it was delicious. The kampachi crudo was also delicious. The zarzuela was my favorite part of the meal. The fresh catch in coconut lemongrass broth was also good, but not as great as the other dishes. The lime pie was a great way to end the meal. For a drink- I recommend the banana bread old fashioned. read more

Appetizers were amazing. Loved the ahi tuna and pork belly. Drinks were just ok. I'm a big Old Fashioned drinker and can't stand when bars serve ice cubes instead of the single large cube. Main course was good but the highlight of the meal was the pineapple crème brûlée. Quite possibly the best dessert I've ever had. It was creamy and not too sweet. It was perfect. Too bad I didn't get a pic of it. read more

My husband and I celebrated our ten year anniversary with dinner last night at Kō Restaurant - located at the fairmount resort in Wailea Maui. We had a phenomenal experience from start to finish. The food was cooked to perfection. We had the mahi mahi & lavender coconut shrimp. Both were so flavorful & melted in your mouth. The staff treated us with such kindness from the moment we walked in, and even gave us a thoughtful card at the end of dinner. I highly recommend Kō for a special occasion! read more

I'm gonna start off by saying they serve their crème brûlée in a pineapple. Guys, I saw this delight pass my table shortly after we were seated and I almost started my meal off with my fave dessert.

Crashed my mom's company dinner and I'm glad I did. Haven't been to Ko in years and honestly, it's just as good as I remembered! We were a very large party and the service was superb! The servers and staff (sorry, I forgot their names) really went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care off and drinks were always topped off. Started off with the lavender honey shrimp and lumpia (which was a bit over fried but still good) and ordered the seafood laulau for my entree. Mom ordered the fresh catch, which I believe was mahi-mahi that night. Loved the presentation of the laulau-- mahi-mahi, scallops, and shrimp enveloped in a decadent creamy coconut sauce with some steamed bak choy and lomi tomato. Also came with a side of sweet potato mash! I devoured each and every bite because it was sooo good! Decided to share some dessert and got the cute little egg tarts to top it all off. The perfect small bites to end a perfect meal. Can't wait to crash the next party! read more

We live on Maui and came to celebrate our cousin's last day of her visit with us. We have for the most part, been underwhelmed with our dining experiences thus far on the island with 3 exceptions. I'm pleased to count Ko as one of those exceptions. The service and ambience were exceptional and the food did not disappoint. It was expertly prepared with fresh ingredients and presented beautifully. We enjoyed lilikoi margaritas, the pork belly bao buns, chicken and mushroom lumpia, seafood Lau Lau, Korean braised short ribs, and for dessert we shared the Ko Ko puff. an absolute pleasure for all the senses. We will definitely be returning. read more
