   Amazing Brussels sprouts, fish and coconut prawns. Wagyu steak was way too seasoned and not cooked to requested temperature

   Service was good, food was average and INCREDIBLY overpriced. Maui is expensive- it just is- but this place is obscenely expensive for sub-par food. The atmosphere is fine- at the fish tank bar. The rest of the restaurant feels like you’re in a Vegas hotel. There’s nothing wrong with Vegas, but when you’re in Maui, you don’t want Vegas vibes. At least we didn’t. There are so many other, better restaurants to choose from.

   From the moment we stepped into Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, we were blown away by the ambiance, service, and, most importantly, the food! Every dish was a masterpiece, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Even our two young children (3 and 6) loved their Starburst drinks and teriyaki steaks. A special shoutout to our server, Bryan, who truly elevated our evening. His knowledge of the menu, attentive service, and friendly demeanor made us feel so well taken care of. We left completely satisfied and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.

   The cauliflower entree was undercooked and the sauce was too sweet and too sour. The sea bass was fine. The sunset and view was extraordinary. Our server. Bryan must have been experiencing an "off" night. When I asked about the vegan tofu entree (not on menu, you have to ask for it) that I enjoyed in Aug. 2024 he said the menu had changed and sometimes the chefs throw the baby out in the bathwater. When I asked if he could give us two separate checks split according to what we each ordered he said they don't usually do it (although no problem in Aug). Then he shares that he created two because we were "nice". So strange.

   Everything was just ok. Couldn’t see the ocean view, as you needed to pay an extra $35 Per person to sit by the water but had no idea until we got there, even inquiring with concierge several times, there was no mention of preferred upcharged seating. Disappointing experience, food & service. And the bill at the end of the meal was $400 for 2 adults and 3 children. definitely not worth it.

    Last night, I celebrated my birthday dinner at Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect—the food, the service, and the breathtaking scenery. I ordered the salmon, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. Every bite was a testament to the chef’s expertise. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring we felt welcomed and well cared for throughout the evening. The highlight, however, was the setting. Watching the sun set while sipping on pre-dinner cocktails was absolutely magical. The colors reflecting off the water created a serene and romantic atmosphere that perfectly complemented the dining experience. This was easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. I highly recommend Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa for anyone looking for a memorable night out. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a desire for amazing food and views, this place delivers on all fronts!
