Have been driving by this place for a long time, an today I decided to stop in. This will be my devour and explore restaurant for my next few trip to Maui over the next few months. I have business on all 4 Islands, but need a place to hang my hat when in town…
We have come here three times during our recent visit to Maui. Absolutely the best happy hour on the island! And the most delicious ahi tuna nachos I’ve ever tasted! The ambience is spectacular and so is the food and the service. This place is a real treasure.
