Haven't been here in years, still feels the same as last time and that's not a bad thing!…read more Took Mom to Kahului Ale House for a late lunch one afternoon and who knew how many folks drink at like 1 PM HA! But we were there to eat and not necessarily have Pau Hana time, I will say though some of those draft on tap sound excellent! Ended up ordering: -Ale Battered Onion Rings ($15.75) -Turkey Club ($22.50) -Beef & Pork Burger ($22.99) -Wedge Salad ($16.75) Those Ale Battered Onion Rings hit the app spot! Beer-battered in house and come with chipotle mayo dipping sauce, fried & light, not overly greasy, good with them using sweet Maui onions! Brother wasn't too hungry, so he ended up getting a Wedge Salad (LOL) but with extra bacon. Looked good too! Mom & wifey shared the Turkey Club - that was a BIG @$$ sandwich! Roast turkey breast with Applewood smoked bacon, mayo, lettuce and tomato between 3 slices of thick rye bread! Buggah was stacked! They both liked it, lean turkey with the fatty bacon, and the texture contrast of the fresh veggies made it tasty! My Beef & Pork Burger was a test to my cholesterol levels LOL! Near 1/2 pound burger made with ground chuck, cooked medium rare and topped with a pile of house roasted Kalua pork, lettuce, tomato, onion, crispy fried onions and BBQ sauce...was indeed a tower of a burger! Was pretty damn ono too! Burger got good char from the grill, and the kalua pork was flavorful and not dry at all. This burger didn't need a slice of cheese at all! Delicious! Maybe on our next time to Ale House we'll actually get some beers! Their daily Happy Hour specials sure are tempting!

We've been coming here for years and I've always enjoyed my experiences here, but last night I had a dish that compelled me to write a review. The oxtail soup which is listed as a favorite is a dish I've been eyeing for a while, but it's usually been too warm for me to crave it. But last night was the night. I'm getting over a cold and it's been raining off and on for weeks. The bowl arrived at the table with a plate underneath - smart move because it takes some work to eat oxtail soup. Armed with my fork and spoon, I went at it. The first taste floored me. It was perfectly seasoned and I could taste the fresh ginger, the broth was a beautiful brown color, there was plenty of napa cabbage and it came with a dish of a scoop of glossy steamed rice and steamed carrots, zucchini and broccoli. Our waitress offered to bring over condiments so I went for the soy sauce - sprinkled on the rice and veggies, I noticed that the veggies might have had a little sesame oil flavor on them so that made me happy. A spoonful of rice dunked into the broth with some of the tender fall of the bone oxtail meat, and a little crunch of the napa cabbage and I was in absolute heaven. I tasted my husband's pork adobo and that was equally as delicious as always. But that soup - that's what really did it for me last night and stays with me today. I walked out of Tante's with a swollen and happy belly and a fresh, tiny piece of ginger stuck between my teeth...a treat for later.

The food was great and so was the service. The prices were good and the portions were generous. I had shoyu chicken and my husband had ribs.

After getting back to our room I realized it was an ice cream cake so even as full as I was I tried to eat some cake before it all melted. The had the place decorated all up for Christmas.

My favorite was the saimin, the broth was extremely flavorful and even the small size was pretty filling.

The waitress was extremely knowledgeable and friendly when explaining local menu items and the restaurant had a very homey/hidden gem type vibe.

I ordered the garlic fried shrimp Caesar salad and it was amazing. The shrimp were cooked perfectly with a crispy, flavorful coating, and every bite had the perfect crunch from the fresh lettuce and fried shrimp together. The zesty dressing was drizzled just right, making every bite balanced and delicious. Definitely a memorable meal!

The outside lanai is so comfortable and covered from the elements. We have gone there for years, and have always been warmly greeted by the owners. Tonight was no exception when we joined some good friends. The sausage appetizer is superb with your choice of pork or veal bratwursts served with red cabbage and tasty mustard. The Schweinsfilet (Hunter's cutlet) with its flavorful mushroom sauce was delicious. I always get the Wienerschnitzel which is huge, pan fried to perfect crispness yet tender and juicy inside. I ordered extra mushroom sauce to enhance the flavor. For sides, we love the red cabbage, sauerkraut, au gratin potato and spaetzle. Their beer and wine selection goes so well with their dishes. I've had their tasty strudel for dessert in the past. We look forward to dining again for dinner or lunch. Ausgezeichnet!

I ordered the Chicken Cordon Bleu with potatoes au gratin and veggies and the husband got the carbonara with chicken and bread. We washed everything down with an iced tea and a beer.

Everything on the menu is served all day except the breakfast so of course we had to come back. Staff is amazing and so friendly. They were great at explaining the menu and our options. I do have to mention that the breakfast staff was more on it with the water. The food was pretty standard for breakfast. After my cousins egg white omlette came, I wanted that. It looked so good. The mushroom omlette that I ordered was okay. It could have been better. The eggs were not fluffy but hard and overall a little tasteless. Maybe adding some garlic or garlic salt as I dont really care for ketchup on my mushrooms. The bacon & cheese saved the omlette and it was funny that I ordered light cheese and got a whole lot of it! It was good after adding salt and pepper. I dont recommend ordering the Lebowski unless you have a light appetite. It only gives 2 peices of meat. A little sad there was no fried rice. Overall, staff was great, food was good and the restaurant is very bright and open. Maybe I'll order my usual next time (Eggs Benedict). I'm rarely disappointed with that.

The waitress said I wasn't her only upset guest. She suggested a modified Ciopino but I noticed a new seafood item: MAKAI For Two that included a Lobster tail, fresh fish fillet, shrimp, scallops for $56. I was celebrating so I wasn't going to have an UNhappy birthday so I ordered it and was NOT disappointed. The portions were pretty big, barely enough for two people but enough for 1 large appetite. The 4oz. Ahi was seared, the medium sized lobster tail, 5 scallops, and 3 large shrimp were all grilled and came with a butter/sage dip. Excellent sides included saffron rice and fresh asparagus! The restaurant wasn't too busy and was quiet enough to talk, pleasant as usual. The service was good, the waitress pleasant and the food arrived promptly. The champagne complimented the meal. Although initially saddened by the menu change, I was pleasantly surprised with something new that was very good. Had a satisfying meal for my bday. Enjoy Foodies!

I was bum they were out of acai bowl the morning I wanted breakfast. I settled for their banana bread french toast and avocado toast. Both items were missing something and not quite right. The avocado toast was not toasted, it was just bread. The banana bread french toast was mostly bread and not french toast. You get what I mean? They do serve Starbucks coffee so that was a savior. At dinner I had the chicken pot pie and the brussels sprouts. The top layer of the pot pie was burnt and so was most of the brussels sprouts. At this point you are better off at the Costco food court across the street.
