They serve the food family-style but still high-end which was exactly what we were going for so we were not disappointed. Cocktails were great and the vibes in the evening are very nice for a more upscale night out. Food came out a little slower than expected and by the time our Korean fried chicken main course came out we were almost full and had to take it togo. But everything was really good regardless, my favorite being the mushroom salad even though it was a little difficult to chop up since they give it to you as a whole head of butter lettuce. The chicken was really good and really juicy, paired nicely with the side of pickled cucumbers

I stopped by here yesterday for my morning coffee. Whenever I go on vacation I try to hit up a new…read morecoffee shop every morning and on this day I headed over to Kraken Coffee in Wailua Gateway. While I have been to a couple of other Kraken locations before, including the day before, this one was different as it was an actual storefront in a strip mall instead of a food truck. They also sell shave ice here. With it being a storefront, they had a decent amount of seating along with a clear ordering area. For my coffee on this morning I went with a large Surf's Up cold brew, which the menu described as coconut mac nut with a sweet foam topper. Since I had run 17 miles earlier in the day, I was also hungry and their jalapeño cheddar bagel caught my eye, so I ordered one of those as well. It did not take long before I had both my drink and food and was headed back to my car. As soon as I got in, I dug in. When I first opened the bagel it looked a little overdone, but there was no bitterness from the darker parts and it actually ended up being cooked perfectly. As for the coffee, I could not get enough of it. The coconut mac nut cold brew was strong with a bit of earthiness from the mac nut and some sweetness from the coconut. The sweet foam was the real standout though as I loved both the texture and the added sweetness. Paired with the bold coffee, it worked really well and I finished it quickly. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my bagel and coffee were good and I would also be interested in trying their shave ice next time.

Okay, I could eat here daily…read more The line was long, but it gave us plenty of time to study their billboard-sized menu. We ordered the two fish tacos and an order of coconut shrimp. The fish tacos were massive. The fish had good flavor, although it leaned a little on the dry side for me. The coconut shrimp, however, were my favorite thing we tried. Crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We happened to arrive between their two happy hour windows, and while looking at the menu, we noticed that coconut shrimp were also available during the second happy hour along with other small plates. What I found odd was their happy hour policy. Apparently, you can only order from the happy hour menu if you've already purchased an entree and can show your receipt. I've never encountered that anywhere else, and it seemed like a strange business concept. Also, it is not posted anywhere that I saw. When my husband went back to order from the happy hour menu, the cashier asked if we had previously ordered food. He said yes, but our receipt was back at the table. For some reason, she had to go to the back to get approval before allowing him to order. It felt a bit awkward, especially since she was the same cashier who had taken our original order when we first arrived and we asked a bunch of questions, so I would def remember someone like me. lol That policy aside, the coconut shrimp were fantastic. I'd definitely come back for those alone.

Coconut's Fish Cafe was one of the places I was most excited to try based on the reviews, but…read moreunfortunately it didn't live up to the hype for me. The poke nachos were absolutely outstanding--the best poke nachos I've had on Maui. Fresh, flavorful, and a generous portion. Everything else was underwhelming. The fish tacos looked incredible and are what the restaurant is known for, but I found them bland and surprisingly mediocre. The ono salad was okay but nothing special. The service was average, and the host had a less-than-aloha attitude that didn't make for the warm welcome I expected. Considering the prices, I expected much more from both the food and overall experience. While the poke nachos alone are worth trying, I left feeling disappointed that the rest of the meal didn't match the reputation or cost. For me, it was a very expensive meal for food that was mostly less than ideal.

The salads had too much dressing but we're otherwise fine. Immediately after eating, he said he felt he was going to be sick and then he was vomiting his entire dinner. He never gets food poisoning. I'm always the one with the sensitive stomach. We're pretty sure it was the shrimp. I left them a message and hopefully this was just a one-off.

Great food truck!…read more Photos of the shrimp plate caught my attention so I had to stop by for that. The woman working was friendly and chatted for a bit. It's on the side of the road near some apartments so there isn't really a place to sit and eat, but it's right by the beach so you can take it to go there. The shrimp was bomb but when I got back to eat, the sauce wasn't in there, which would've made it so much better. Definitely worth stopping by.

Wow, I am still dreaming about this food…read more We stopped by South Maui Fish Company's food truck to grab food on our way to watch the Kihei sunset. We ordered the catch of the day poke (marlin) bowl with the spicy aioli sauce, and the Ahi poke bowl with the traditional Shoyu based sauce. We also got rice and slaw. Both fish plates were fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The slaw was also very refreshing and complimented the richness of the poke really well. We will absolutely be back the next time we are in Maui!

We went all in on the pork belly (no regrets ) and ordered the pork belly fried rice and the garlic noodles with pork belly. Both dishes were packed with flavor and super satisfying. The pork belly on the garlic noodles had that perfect crispy edge with a tender, melt-in-your-mouth center--easily the highlight. We went on a Sunday night, and the place had a fun, lively vibe. There are tables available, but it does get busy, so come with a little patience. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

The whole vibe is very chill, which is nice, but it also made everything take extra long, both the service and getting our food to the table. We ordered the crab cake, which had a nice slight crunch on the outside and decent chunks of crab meat. The pork belly didn't really stand out, though the sauce was good. My wagyu steak came out more rare than the medium rare I asked for, which was a bit disappointing. Service was slow overall, slow enough that our baby couldn't wait and ended up falling asleep, which made it hard for us to really enjoy the experience. That said, the place itself is really cool. The bar with the fish tank is a unique touch, and we went around sunset so it was still really pretty even though it was cloudy. Overall, probably more of a "been there, done that" kind of spot. I don't see myself going back.

Gotta stay at the famous White Lotus when I visit Maui right? Unfortunately, my experience was…read moreextremely mediocre. I have stayed at many luxury hotels by now. In comparison to some other brands such as Aman, Four Seasons Maui felt below average given its price point. The resort itself felt small and a bit old. The service felt very below average and inconsistent. One employee would tell you the sun umbrellas at the pools near the bushes are not adjustable while literally 2 mins later another employee came and adjusted the sun umbrella next to me and also mine when I asked. When we went to the adult pool we were told by one employee that we needed to be on a waitlist. After 3 hours when we finally got notified that it was our turn and went back we noticed other guests just literally went and grabbed empty benches and staffs were just setting the benches up for them(no, they didn't even know there was a waitlist)... Our canoe experience at the last day of our stay got canceled due to high wind and the concierge never notified us etc. Many employees gave me the vibe that they don't really care. They just gave me fake smiles and robotic responses. Maybe Amond would take better care of us...if he is still alive... The view was very amazing. We even spotted whales many times.
