    Kula Lodge brunch was perfect! We all loved our food! Great pizza, fresh fish sandwich, omelette and my amazing croissant turkey sandwich! We had the pancakes for dessert! Love the drive, the atmosphere and the walk around the garden after. People come here! Brunch/lunch until 2 pm! It’s great!

    Always a lovely experience at The Plantation House! My husband and I had a delicious brunch the morning after Christmas. The dining room overlooks the golf course and ocean with beautiful views and quiet ambiance. The food and service are always top-notch. It was fun to see them setting up the course for the Sentry PGA Tour starting on January 2nd. Treat yourself for a special or regular occasion. You won’t be disappointed!

    Our best food experience on Maui. Lovely comfortable atmosphere, great service and delicious food! We had the crab pizza, Caesar salad and pork buns for appetizers to share and all were awesome and came out in a flash. Then the special fish of the day(manjang?), curry(panang style with fish and big prawns annd yummy vegetables) and the bbq ribs. Everybody loved their dish and we shared bites because it was so tasty. Wine was good and reasonable. The Banana cheesecake and vanilla ice cream were great. Service was fast and friendly. We highly recommend this restaurant.

    We are huge fans of Merrimans and Monkeypod Kitchen and visit when we are lucky enough to get a resy and the location in Wailea has the best service despite being in a strip mall a little further from the ocean. Our Christmas Eve lunch did not disappoint. We tried some new things on the menu, their market fish was prepare perfectly and we ended the meal with the pies. The mai tais are also the best in Hawaii.
