    Spent the day at the Ritz Carlton pool complex, and had yummy food and drinks from Olu Cafe. While everything was tasty, sadly, the service was lacking. Don't get me wrong, the bartender was awesome. He was super friendly, and made great conversation with us. Oh, are you wondering why I spent so much time at the poolside bar chatting it up with the bartender? Well, that would be because our sever was too busy standing around doing nothing instead of checking on his section. There weren't more than about 10 people or so in the section too. Yep, I'm disappointment. Like I said, food and drinks are great, service from the server, not so much. The only reason I'm giving Olu Cafe 3 stars instead of 2 is because of the bartender.

    Can't beat the poolside location and the friendly and attentive service. I had some wings and the Hawaiian sweet bread grilled cheese. Nothing to write home about food wise, but about as good as you can get when it comes to poolside dining.

    This is the restaurant in the golf club next to the Ritz. We were able to grab a last minute…read morereservation for 4 (it's a large restaurant so I see why) and requested to be seated outside by the patio so the kids could run around, and oh, they did. The place is beautiful and modern, albeit loud inside. Also, I'd say it's not the most Hawaiian vibes, if you're going for that specific vibe. The food was really good. It was expensive, but to be expected. I went with the double fish entree and it escapes me what two fish, but it truly was delicious and maybe the best meal on my limited trip to Maui. The ube bread was dough and delicious smothered in their compounded butter. The cocktail was good. My kids ordered ice cream sandwiches, which we were told were small, but they were actually quite big, to the kids happiness. The service was slower, but the place was packed. Overall, we enjoyed it!

    I picked this spot since we have never been here and it looked like a good places from some of the…read morereviews. I made reservations and it was dinner time on Valentine's day. It was busy at the bar but not to bad for the main dinning. I checked in and we were seated right away. The girl asked us to follow her to our seats seemed to be looking at the open tables and decided to put us in the middle of the room at a 4 person table. I saw that the entire section with booths was empty. I asked her if we could get a booth and she said "well those are for booked people." uhm I booked a reservation. She waited a second and walked back to the reception desk. Soon she came back and sat us at a booth which was a table for 2. So weird. Our server was really nice and laid back. He knelt down and told us the specials. SO as far as service it was very good. My wife wasn't very hungry so she was looking for a small dish. She got the Caesar salad and it was good. She also got the Parmesan Risotto. It was actually a side dish. When it came out it was tomato based and didn't have any parmesan on it. I asked the server and he said it was infused with lobster sauce. which wasn't want she wanted. He asked to take it away but my wife said no and didn't want to bother with it. I really think it was the risotto that was connected to a special dish and not the side. I started out with the steamed clams. They were good flavor and I liked the sauce with it but some of the clams didn't open which is bad. they were a nice size to. Next was the pork chop wrapped in bacon. It was cooked and tasted ok. I just expected more from this place. The server came back and was apologizing about my wife's risotto and offered to take care of the dessert . So we got the chocolate lava cake. It was really chocolaty. This place was just ok.

Our waiter took our order, never brought my wife's glass of wine; then after we had waited 25 minutes without getting anything, he stopped by to ask us how things were going so far. We were baffled: "We haven't received any food or drinks yet." Another 10 minutes later, he showed up again, apologized and said the restaurant's manager had said their order-entry system had gone down and that our order would be one of the first to go in w/the tech running again. Then another 25 minutes passed, other tables got their food, and we sat empty-handed. Two of our party finally complained to multiple staff; our waiter said to calm down and that our food would be ready in another 10 minutes (seriously?); and very soon thereafter, our food finally arrived. No apologies from the restaurant, no follow-up on why the order took another half-hour after their system was allegedly running again, no sign of our appetizers or wine. We were OK w/those last details because after waiting more than an hour, we were ready to leave. Our order finally arrived more than an hour after we had placed it, and the food was fine. After the meal, I asked three employees if I could speak with the manager; each was evasive or said he's hard to reach. Finally, our waiter claimed (no idea whether this is true) that they had no more kitchen staff, the owner was cooking all the food, and the restaurant was due to close in the next few days. That was in late December 2025, so if Kitchen 5315 is still open in 2026, save yourself the misery and avoid this restaurant!

    Best meal in Maui by far!…read more Tonight we experienced the most incredible dinner since we have been in Maui. Our amazing server Nick recommended we get the whole fish; he said to trust him as it is cooked over a charcoal oven. Well, Nick was right... we have had cooked fish from all over the world and nothing was as exceptional in flavor and size as this fish! It came with two sides; we ordered the mashed potatoes and corn and let me just say the corn was phenomenal and award winning! We topped our meal with the banana cream pie and it blew us away! Also, the cocktail menu and wine menu is exceptional. We started with the Ua Kapalua (jalapeño cucumber tequila) and it's better than any drink at any Los Angeles hot spot. The wine we ordered after was a Spanish wine that paired perfect with our meal. Coming back on this trip and asking for Nick as our server again! 5 star service and 5 star food

Everything was cooked to perfection. The grilled octopus was perfectly charred. The scallops in the curry tasted rich and soft. Great texture on both; not rubbery or dry. The NY strip was cooked to how I want it (rare). Cocktails were also good. All staffs have been friendly and welcoming. The restaurant and restrooms were well kept. The restaurant is located at The Ritz next to the pool. There is complimentary valet parking.

I made a reservation but wanted to get there way early to walk around and grab a cocktail before we sat down. What a great location overlooking the beach and a small bay. The staff was friendly, helpful and very accommodating and because we were way early for our reservation they gave us the option of sitting at the bar and dining. What a fabulous idea because the view was incredible, with open air surrounding the bar. Victor our server and the bartender was very friendly and took great care of us. We were able to enjoy our meal and take in another spectacular Maui sunset from where we sat. Cocktails were their own spin on some regulars and very refreshing. The Sashimi was so fresh it could literally melt in your mouth, wedge salad was Perfect to share and very good. The onion soup had a unique flavor and I wasn't sure if it was the local Maui onions that gave it that uniqueness but it was delicious. My entree was incredible, I am pretty sure this was the first time I have had Monchong fish, but it was so moist and flaky and then to put a pesto crusting on it just made it "Ono" served on a bed of risotto. Crazy good-well done Chef you knocked this one out of the park. Coconut shrimp was cooked perfectly and made with the larger count shrimp, served with the perfect Chili Tai sauce. We really wanted to dine at a place that had that old school charm, and we found it here at Sea House. Live Hawaiian style music in the background by a solo artist completed our dining experience. A "fantabulous" evening done with class set in a beautiful natural theatre. Bravissimo Sea House you made the evening special. When on the Kaanapali coast and you want that classic dining experience this is your place, BUT make a reservation.
