    We had another very enjoyable lunch at Tommy's. Always a good choice. This time around we enjoyed the char grilled filet mignon salad and we shared. Along with their wonderful warm baked bread it was more than enough for two people. We also got power favorite Pina. Colada cake as a dessert but decided to take it home with us to enjoy later. Another very wonderful dining experience at tommy bahamas. Our server, Greg, was very attentive and made a good suggestion for me to try a new beer on tap. It was also very enjoyable.

    It was great to see Star Noodle reopened and love their new location with a lot more room. Our server was great and the food came out quicker than I remember from before. We had a few of our favs like the steamed pork buns, kim chee, and miso butterfish. All were excellent. This is one of our favorite places in Maui so always look forward to returning.

    Wonderful old building with a delicious menu and nice beverages on offer. Our waiter, Joe, was exceptional as were the rest of the staff. Well worth it and a perfect spot to eat prior to our red-eye flight back to North America!

    Loves every minute of our visit to MonkeyPod. Seated immediately on the side patio. Jess greeted us and brought us 3 Mai tais and a whiskey sour - delicious! Then we shared a Gem Salad and a Brocli Salad - both delicious but the Brocli was so unique we all agreed it was the best. Fish Tacos, Fish and Chops and Macademia Nut encrusted Mahi Mahi we all excellent but my Rib Eye was over the top. Cooked to perfection. We had a bottle of Tempranillo which paired well with everything and topped it all off with Banana Cream pie. Would recommend the entire meal all over again. Jess was an excellent waitress!
