    Have dined at the General Store for many, many years. It just gets better and better in every way: host greeting, servers (especially Dale), food and drinks. We love it!

    Tried every recommended restaurant in maui from friends and family. This was by far the best meal we had on our trip. The Sashimi Napoleon was incredible as was the Mahi Mahi. The atmosphere was perfect with a great temperature, service, and open air feel in cool farmhouse setting. Drive through the hills was also beautiful. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a high end meal in maui.

    Our table of ten for dinner on a Sunday. Server was a bit slow and his assistant missed plating three of us. Also the same three were not asked if they wanted dessert but the rest of us were asked. Dinner was delicious and served hot. The Rib Eye steak was a bit fatty for the high price. Scalloped potatoes were ok but not what I expected for the high price. The fish special was delicious and filling.
    Haliimaile General StoreResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear that the dinner was delicious and served hot. We apologize for the slower service and the oversight with dessert and plating, and we'll certainly address that with the team. We appreciate your comments about the rib-eye and scalloped potatoes and will take them into consideration as we continually strive to improve. We hope to have the chance to welcome you back soon for a more seamless experience! 😊🍽️ Mahalo.
