    I ordered the Thai Coconut Curry with Marlin. The fresh, flaky marlin pairs beautifully with the creamy yellow coconut curry, creating a delightful balance of flavors. The dish is expertly prepared with jasmine rice and tender vegetables and just the right amount of spice. The ambiance of the restaurant further enhances the dining experience with a beautiful view of the pool and ocean. James was my server and was very polite, friendly and helpful. Great hospitality and great meal

    Came for prime rib night. A reservation is needed, regardless what the concierge says. Prime Rib dinner comes with a salad and dessert. My father enjoyed his dinner. We opted for the Ahi which was good as well.

    We had a very nice dinner at Mauka Makai and as an added bonus got to see a very entertaining whale show. The service and food were excellent and we will be back while we are here in Maui.

    The menu is rather limited but all of the food was very well prepared and tasty, including the airline chicken, catch of the day (marlin), scallop risotto and lillikoi topped cheesecake. The portions are right-sized, just enough for one meal, not huge, which was perfect for us - clean plates for all. Oliver, our server, was fantastic! He was friendly, efficient and very accommodating, quickly helping us change tables to pool/oceanfront when one opened up. He made our experience even more enjoyable, especially given it was our last night on island and we had had a rather unpleasant experience with the resort itself that day. Kudos to Oliver!!!

    Our meals were good, but the menu is limited and portion sizes are small relative to cost. I had the scallop risotto, and there were only 3 small scallops in the dish. My husband ‘s bourbon manhattan cost $22! All on all, our experience was just okay.
