    Great food, easy to get to, prices are a little on the high side, ambience is lacking, but still worth the trip upcountry to eat here. Cool glass blowing place across the street, plenty of parking. We were a little disappointed that you did not have local pineapple wine on the menu considering you are right beside the plantation and advertised along side it. All in all, a great place to eat though.

    This was our first time back in a few years and since the sale to the Gather Restaurant Group. In our opinion they haven’t missed a beat. It’s the same wonderful place as always. We will certainly be back.

    Tried every recommended restaurant in maui from friends and family. This was by far the best meal we had on our trip. The Sashimi Napoleon was incredible as was the Mahi Mahi. The atmosphere was perfect with a great temperature, service, and open air feel in cool farmhouse setting. Drive through the hills was also beautiful. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a high end meal in maui.
