Once again the Beachcomber did not disappoint. You can’t beat the view from anywhere you sit. The beignet’s are a must. Our food order arrived quickly. The crashing waves in the background is a great part of the ambiance. Our waitress Amber was very attentive and thorough. A waiter Hector from previous visits remembered us and stopped by to say hello. Can’t wait to visit again.

I've been coming to this Chart House for the past 20 years. It has had its highs and lows, notably in the immediate aftermath of the pandemic the service and quality were relatively lackluster. This experience was absolutely wonderful. Great food, great service--they appear to be getting back to their original vision for the restaurant.

Izzy was our waitress. She was very, very, very good not too crazy about the table that we were sad at. It was right next to the kitchen and the ice machine so not we didn’t like the table very much but the service and the food was very good.

Love mama’s! We try to go every time we’re in Maui and it’s always delicious. Pau Hana is one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. Love the ambience too and staff is always very friendly.

Root Down put on a very good Valentine's Day show. The food, service and professionalism was stellar. They left no stone unturned and we benefitted from all their planning and hard work.

Went there for Valentine’s Day last night and the food and service were excellent even with a full and very busy restaurant. The four cheese manicotti and chicken meatballs with capellini were amazing.
