Swan Court Breakfast is the same spot as Son'z Steakhouse. It's morning service vs evening service…read more We ordered à la carte instead of the buffet so we were given a table and menus. We were seated right next to the pond facing a waterfall and can see the swans. The place is open air to the outside, but there are nets to keep the birds out. Small birds actually found their way into the restaurant but never got too close. Our server was awesome! She brought out coffee and took our order as soon as we were ready. She was pretty helpful bringing extra things we needed quickly like another napkin or fork. We ordered the Ube pancakes, Hawaiian style eggs Benedict, Kalua Pork Hash, and a side of sausages. The Ube pancakes were so fluffy and light, and the Ube sauce was not too sweet and the Ube flavor was there! The berries were a nice balance to the pancakes. The portion is big enough to share with 3 people. The Mai Ka Aina Eggs Benedict was eggs Benedict sub steak tomatoes for Canadian ham. Overall, it was alright. The potatoes were neither crispy or fluffy, and needed added salt. The eggs were poached nicely but the hollandaise sauce was flat. If that makes sense. The Kalua Pork Hash was awesome! It was served in on a hot iron skillet which made hash browns extra crispy on the edges. The Kalua pork mixed into the hash gave it a good amount of salt and seasoning. And the over easy eggs with the Kalua sauce served on top of the hash was perfect. We could've ordered a second Kalua pork hash if we weren't so full from the pancakes. The total cost was $105 for 3 entrees plus coffee, so it's pricier than an average breakfast. Service was great, the dining room was nice a bright and huge, and most of the food was amazing. I think it was worth the splurge while on Maui.

I was really craving the Loco Moco dish for my trip to Hawaii, and this restaurant answered my…read moreprayers. It was towards the end of our trip already, and I hadn't had it yet. Finally I looked up Loco Loco on Yelp, and found this place. My Loco Moco was AMAZING. It had the right amount of gravy, hamburger steak, runny fried egg on top...simply what I wanted and was craving for so long! I don't know why it's so hard to find and replicate in the States. I'm so glad I had it here though! We got pancakes for our daughter too, which were pretty good. My husband got some Kalua Pork Benedict that he thought was just okay, nothing special. Service was a slow to order - there is only one cashier to order from, and a snaking line. I think we did get our food at a decent time frame though after ordering. Parking is super easy, as this is located within a strip mall. The ambiance inside is quite surprisingly cozy, a charming cafe with high ceilings, and feels clean. LOVED the Loco Moco here, missing it already!

We visited with a large group and were pleasantly surprised that we were seated within about 30…read moreminutes of arriving. The restaurant was clean, spacious, and able to accommodate our party comfortably. For food, we ordered the make-your-own pancakes for the kids, the loco moco, and the Hawaiian pancakes. The loco moco was good overall, although the hamburger patty tasted more like a premade patty than a fresh, house-made one. The Hawaiian pancakes were tasty, but they were fairly similar to standard diner pancakes. I was hoping for more nuts folded into the batter to give them a little more texture and flavor. If you're looking for authentic Hawaiian food or strong Hawaiian flavors, this probably isn't the place. The dishes we tried felt more like standard diner fare with a Hawaiian-inspired twist rather than traditional Hawaiian cuisine. Our server, Juan, provided mediocre service. He didn't check on our table very often, and when there was a mix-up with one of our orders, he came across as slightly rude rather than helpful. The experience wasn't terrible, but the service definitely left room for improvement. Overall, the restaurant was clean and accommodating for large groups, the food was decent, and with more attentive service, the experience could have been much better.

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

We came here every day for breakfast, since it was literally 1 minute away. 3 times for breakfast…read moreand 1 time for happy hour. During breakfast, they open at 7, and there's a short line. For breakfast, I got the Pete's Benedict and The Cure twice. Pete's Benedict was good, rich hollandaise sauce but couldn't eat it more than 1 day. The Cure is their version of ramen noodles with an Hawaiian twist, they put Kailua pork for the protein, along with an fried egg, and a bunch of veggies - carrots, bok choy, mushrooms, bean sprouts and onions. It was salty, but really good for a night of drinking. It's literally called the cure because it cures hangovers. lol. It was delicious. My husband got the blueberry and lilikoi pancakes one day, it was really good, very Hawaiian. And the kids menu was eggs, bacon and 3 fried potatoes. My toddler enjoyed it every day. They don't serve drinks until 8am, due to state laws. For HH we got the famous mai tai with lilikoi foam, they didn't do it well here. It was too much lemon, felt like you were drinking only lemon juice with some rum, but the lilikoi foam was consistent and good. Skip the mai tai and go to MonkeyPod, bartenders are more experienced there. Overall, we enjoyed breakfast here everyday.

We started with some clams, and for that price you only got like 6 clams. Knowing that now I would skip! Stick with just a salad and entree. We got the Caesar salad, it was pretty good. My entree was the ahi tuna slightly seared. This restaurant is one of the only places I know that can cook an ahi tuna right. Other places we've been too tends to overcook it. Hula grill got it right. It was delicious. My husband got the Mac nut fish, and he said it was ok. He said it needed a better beurre Blanc sauce. Maybe with some citrus. It lacked flavor. But the best thing here was the kids menu. When we went they had a $20 petite filet with mash potatoes. It was perfectly cooked. My 2 year old ate ALL 4oz of the filet! It was that good. I tried a little piece and hot damn, what a deal. The best kids menu deal when they have it available! Get it. It was our anniversary, so the server gave us a celebratory hula pie. So good. It's nice they recognize your celebratory moment too!
