    Amazing farm to table food made in house. Absolutely delicious. The potstickers and lobster deviled eggs for sure for appetizer and fresh fish of the day was stunning. Maria was also fabulous in her service and attentiveness. She made great recommendations and made our experience that much better! Highly recommend

    We had another very enjoyable lunch at Tommy's this afternoon. This time we decided to try the chicken sandwich which was delicious. The sauce did have a little bit of spice to it which if you're adverse to having spicy food, you may want to ask them to tone it down. But it was delicious and really hit the spot. Service was excellent as usual.

    Really good food! Little warm for me but not unpleasant. The signature cocktail (Mai tai?) was delicious and they called it a different name and it definitely wasn’t a traditional Mai tai. $180 for 6 of us seemed like a lot but also not unreasonable for Maui. Awesome place to stop for lunch after a pineapple tour across the street.

    My previous experience was terrible! This was shortly after they opened and the food was horrible. Gave it a 2nd try and it was much improved. It's still very noisy but not as bad in the back! It is on the pricier side.

    This was our first visit here and it was worth the trip to the up country for sure. Service: excellent. Waters for table constantly being filled, cocktails and food came out quickly. Cocktails: excellent. Multiple different ones tried at the table and all were good. Food: very good. Our favorites were the Poisson Cru (ceviche), Ahi Crudo, Lodge Salad, Rack of Lamb and Seared Tuna. We also got desserts which were good. They do have a kids (keiki) menu but they tell you verbally and our kids gave the chicken tenders a thumbs up! Location: beautiful views of Maui and property is surrounded by lush gardens. This is honestly one of our favorite meals on the island and we look forward to coming back!
