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!

Plenty of parking to escape your troubles or hide your whereabouts. Adjacent lot just in case you need wide turns. Friendly little bartenders who know how to pour a beer and make highballs or Hawaiian ice tea. Pretty tidy and clean, lots of light to ward off vampires and an outside bench for smokers. Clean restrooms are the biggest surprise. Denizens include a bunch of regular seniors who love to talk and shoot the shit while sipping a beer. Pool table for local sharks or bored barflies. Gone is the sign for oysters on the half shell. Take the side streets home slowly if you're over the limit.

The second we walked in, the bartender came at us like we were criminals demanding IDs right in our…read morefaces. After we handed them over, she rolled her eyes like we had just ruined her day. We were with locals who actually live here, so there was no excuse for the attitude. The vibe? Absolutely dead. Zero friendliness, zero aloha spirit. If this place thinks this is "hospitality," then the owner clearly doesn't care. Honestly, the bartender needs anger management classes or maybe just a different career altogether, because customer service clearly isn't for her. Do yourself a favor: don't waste your money or your time here. There are plenty of better places where you won't be treated like garbage the second you walk in.

I was recommended to try Tiffany's, and honestly, it ended up being one of the best restaurant…read moreexperiences of my trip! I loved everything about it. I still think about their banana lumpia all the time. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was super friendly and welcoming. We ordered the BBQ teriyaki chicken plate and the pork belly plate, and both were so good. It's local comfort food, but everything felt really well-made and high quality. Just really satisfying, flavorful food. And then we had to try the ube banana lumpia for dessert. It was SO delicious. The combination of ube ice cream and banana with the crispy lumpia wrapper was incredible. Definitely one of those desserts I'll be thinking about for a long time. The ambiance was nice and cozy, although it was super cold inside. Great food, friendly service and reasonable prices. I absolutely loved this place and would 100% come back.

Great food and beer in a super chill environment, great addition to old Wailuku…read more Stopped in incidentally after another place we wanted to check out closed 2 hours early. Best way to find a local gem! No one greeted us as we arrived at 2pm, offered menus, anything. We sat ourselves, ordered beers at the bar. Great beer selection. Found out after looking online that they had food and happy hour from 3-5pm. No problem, just don't expect a tip. Menu changes regularly based on old photos. We tried the roasted eggplant for $15, and waited until HH to get $2 off the smashburger. While the latter was quite good, the eggplant dish was standout unique and tasty. The sauce in which it was served harkened to African spicy peanut marinade, excellent match with the perfectly roasted eggplant. Wonderful salubrious surprise that will be recreated at home. I asked a fellow clearing plates the inspiration for this dish, he said he'd ask the chef but never got back to us. With all of 3 tables to concern himself with... Great food, nice chill vibe, distant DIY service. Worth a return visit.

I'm glad we listened. We sat at the bar for quick service. The service was fast and super friendly. I ordered the Smash Burger with bacon and an order of garlic fries. Everything is a la carte so if you want fries, just know they do not come with the burger. Everything was delicious. The Smash Burger was perfectly cooked, seasoned wonderfully, and so juicy! The burger also had some spice to it! It had some pickled jalapenos on it and they added the perfect heat. I loved it. The garlic fries were perfectly fried and crispy and had a great garlic flavor and kick. I will definitely come back here on my next visit to island.

I couldn't finish it but would get again. The bartender and waitress were great. Will definitely have another meal here again on my next stay. Maui is pretty pricey these days so I found this reasonable for a hotel with a glass of wine at $12 - not bad. Cocktails were a bit more expensive.

The best local bar on Lower Main in Wailuku…read more Sit at the bar and meet friendly folks or take a table. Very cold beer in bottles or try a beautiful mixed drink from their full bar. Quick service but not pushy on drinks. A great 2 page menu of local fare provides fried, grilled or shared plates of pupus or full meals. Love the piping hot crinkle cut fries that come with our local Maui blend of mustard and mayo. Best value on the island. Free parking in the back and incognito back entrance. Hint: Watchale for karaoke later in the evening. When that starts it gets a bit loud and I don't remember Whitney wannabes belting out Auto-tuned hits.

Loved this place! It's everything a karaoke dive bar should be. Husband and I came here after we…read morebriefly stopped at a bizarre karaoke place across the street. When we came in (around 9:15 on a Friday night), the place was packed. We ended up sharing a table with a nice couple and the bartender/server came right out and took our orders. Karaoke was happening and after a guy finished his song, I took my turn. Crowd was super fun and appreciative. My husband and one other gal at our table also sang a few songs as well. The ladies room here was also super clean! Anyway, if you're looking for a relaxed karaoke atmosphere in a place with good drinks and friendly people I highly recommend Lava's.

Great Kava Bar! I…read moreforget the name of the gentleman who served us, but he did a phenomenal job. He was extremely knowledable about the kava and made reccomendations based off the vibes we were going for. Rather than doing a kava cocktail, we opted to do the actual thing just to get a baseline of what it tastes like. The kava we had was hands down one of the better ones we've tried. If you've never had it before, its earthy and herbally kind of like tea and leaves a numb/tingling sensation on your tongue. The bar is super laid back, very casual. We even had the pleasure of chatting with other customers and had a good time here. The inside also looks like their set up for live music. 10/10 would reccomend, great vibes overall.

My friends and I ended up here after a night of bar hopping in the central valley. We were greeted…read morewith friendliness, sat down, and were politely asked if we needed girls, which we declined, and were never bothered again. We just needed some night caps. ATMOSPHERE: The bar is located on the first level of the parking garage of the Puuone Towers, along with a handful of other Korean bars and restaurants. Dim pink lighting, bar and booth seating and a tiny dance floor. Bathrooms are located inside. BEVERAGE: Despite looking like a full bar, they could only fulfill our beer orders and had no knowledge of mixed drinks. ENTERTAINMENT: It's a mix of karaoke and background. The drinks were a bit pricey for a bar of this magnitude ($6 for Heineken.) SERVICE: Friendly and unobtrusive. OVERALL: Come here for the girls or just to have a great time with friends.
