    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.

    Unfussy restaurant next to the retail shops and market. Don’t let the look fool you - the flavors and service are excellent. We were grateful that the server explained the most efficient way to order. Family style ordering - pick a protein and a few sides. Where we landed: - we ordered the poke bowl appetizer. More bites of flavor, less poke bowl. Flavors are like tiny explosions, and the texture is divine. Could’ve eaten four more, easily. - crab cakes. Four small delicious cakes crafted from scallops and shrimp with a dusting of some delicious and easily-tolerated spice. Again, Lineage nails not only flavors but masters of texture. - broccolini. Well presented plate. Delicious. - Szechuan noodles. Flavor. Texture. Generous portion. Give it a toss before you dive in. My mouth is still watering. This will absolutely be a regular spot when we return to Maui. They are a farm to fork restaurant with fresh, intentional flavors with a nod to their farm partners. New favorite spot.

    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!
