Japengo

Terrific quality all around with many extra mahalos to Yukako. Everything we had was excellent and the unagi nigiri was especially delicious... Cajun Hamachi was perfectly spiced and seared... might be my new favorite restaurant on Maui - please open another one on North shore!!

The food was pretty good!!! The calamari was great!!! The fried rice could’ve been a bit better. A bit too salty! Overall though! Great food!! And loved the atmosphere and our waiter was amazing!!!

My absolute favorite place on Maui now! I loved everything about it. The spectacular views, the ambiance, service, and great food!! We had the chefs special roll and the fuju (sp) roll. I had a chirashi bowl, he had roasted pork with kimchi mashed potatoes- YUM!! Excellent service, very friendly! Valet parking.

Japengo Maui is the kind of place that makes you understand why people come to Hawaii and immediately start speaking in sunsets. As we roll into Christmas week, do yourself a favor and make a reservation—this place gets busy for a reason. You’re rewarded with a killer view as the sun drops behind Lānaʻi, and it’s basically dinner-and-a-show… just know that if you choose to sit outside, Maui may casually remind you who’s boss with a breezy little gust that turns napkins into kites. Let’s start strong: the Korean Seafood Pancake. Crispy, packed with seafood, and ridiculously flavorful. It comes quartered, which feels generous—until the first bite. If your party is more than two people, consider ordering a second one preemptively, because “sharing” becomes a myth real fast. Next up, the ever-faithful Spicy Edamame. Great flavor, but a fair warning: the chili oil makes it a little messy, like your snack is trying to turn into a slip-and-slide. Still worth it. We tried the Blackened Tuna Roll—beautiful presentation, solid execution, but for us it landed in the “good, not life-changing” category. If you’re used to excellent sushi (NYC-area standards), it’s more “respectable” than “remarkable.” Not bad at all—just didn’t steal the spotlight. A quick public service announcement: the Hamachi Collar Bone is one of their most popular dishes and it sells out early. We showed up around 6:30pm and it was already gone. If you’re set on it, aim for 5:30pm and move with purpose. Now—quietly, unexpectedly—the Garlic Noodles. This side dish goes with just about everything and sneaks up on you like a woman you didn’t know you needed in your life. One minute you’re “just trying a bite,” and the next you’re guarding the bowl like it’s your retirement fund. They were so good we genuinely considered ordering a second round. That’s how dangerous they are. The Garlic Shrimp came through in a big way—good-sized shrimp with a buttery garlic flavor that stayed balanced instead of drowning everything in grease. And then there was the ribeye, cooked perfectly medium, great portion, and loaded with flavor thanks to that shiitake mushroom sauce. Steak plus sunset plus competent cooking is a pretty undefeated combo. And dessert? The Kā‘anapali Pie is the mic drop: brownie crust, banana, macadamia nut ice cream, whipped cream, caramel, chocolate… basically a dessert that shows up wearing a crown and doesn’t apologize for it. It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Bottom line: great meal, great service, and a view that does half the flirting for you. Reservations recommended—especially this time of year.

We went to Japengo for our 4th wedding anniversary and they did not disappoint. They have a great outdoor seating balcony with great views. The interior deco is like a modern Asian / Japanese look that was cool. Tip* - you can just pull up to the front valet area and let them know you are there for reservations at Japengo and they will provide free parking for you. (Get your ticket validated at the restaurant) and don’t forget to tip your valet! We had the chicken and the steak. The steak was the best steak on our entire visit. Super moist and tender. Perfect. The jadori chicken was tasty, nothing wrong with it but it didn’t impress. We also got the mango prawn salad which could have been more / better. Clams were good in a white wine garlicky sauce - yum. I was eating this sauce with my spoon at the end. Many dishes were highlighting the shiitake mushrooms and the mushroom side dish was also good. Service was good, a little slow. We were done with apps and plates taken and waited another 35 minutes for our main course to come out. Seemed a bit long. We got an amazing dessert there that we think was the best one out of the 4-5 we had around Maui during our stay. It was a layered browny / chocolate cake and ice cream dish and it was very tasty. We would definitely go back and try more of their dishes. We were bummed we didn’t try the fish instead of the chicken. Next time!

The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful, and the drinks were great. The service was decent, but the food was honestly quite underwhelming. I’m from the Midwest and have had better sushi from my local grocery store! The rolls lacked flavor, and for the price, I expected much more. Unfortunately, it just didn’t live up to the hype. If you’re visiting Maui and looking for truly good sushi, I wouldn’t recommend this spot, but it’s a lovely place for cocktails and ambiance.

Excellent overall Experience. Japengo has a fantastic location on the Hyatt Property, overlooking the Pools, Ocean and massive open Lobby front side. The approach is cool and overall layout is very fun with so many different seating options and perspectives. Cool round bar near entry to hang out at and take it in. Our server Burt was very gracious and knowledgeable and really made us comfortable talking about all things related. We had Spicy Edamane, Seared Hamachi and Garlic Noodles to start and they were all outstanding with great very distinct flavors and textures. For dinner we had the Chefs Special Roll and a Blackened Ahi Roll. Both were beautiful and delicious, very good. Both were California Roll inside, then the Chefs Special had Ahi and Onaga with Black Squid Ink Roe and the other had Blackened Ahi with Wasabi Roe. They treated us to a Pineapple Upside Down Cake which Beautiful and absolutely Delicious. Thank you, Burt and Japengo Team

In the past, we had had good experiences in this restaurant, but we dine there on January 12 2026 And it was the worst dinner we had on Maui out of 10 meals. I ordered the mango salad with shrimp. The lettuce was wilted. There was almost no mango in the salad and the shrimp was completely undercooked so I sent it back in the shrimp came back still uncooked. I ordered their special roll and the waiter told me it was $42 and he said it was a couple dollars extra for swipe paper when I got the bill the roll was $52 My wife ordered the special seafood dinner, which had mahi-mahi half a lobster tail and a shrimp on risotto. The risotto was like porridge or oatmeal, mushy and warm. The lobster tail wasn’t cooked properly and it was ice cold and the shrimp was also not cooked properly undercooked. The mahi Maui was edible The waiter apologized, but didn’t seem to care too much. He had a condom looking bandage on his finger, which was not very attractive. When we sent the lobster and the shrimp back He said they were just gonna take it off the menu. So meanwhile, my wife’s not supposed to have dinner I asked to speak to the manager He also came over and asked me how was your roll I said it was OK but the rest of the dinner was not very good and everything was undercooked so he brought back two shrimp that were still not cooked. We ended up paying for the role and didn’t even want to stay for dessert. We have been to this restaurant half a dozen times at least and always had a good experience before but after this dinner, we will never return to that restaurant again they have management issues and Chef kitchen issues and the service from our waiter was indifferent this is not What I would expect from a Hyatt hotel On Maui that I’m sure charges $1000 to stay there

Maui is fortunate to have such an amazing restaurant to cater to their guests. We are visiting from LA and let me say WOW! Everything we ordered was a treat and delicious. From the sushi. Appetizers, and filets everything was amazing. Many restaurants and Japengo has been the best by far. Jimmy and Mike catered to us so well, from being attentive, courteous, and professional. Kudos to the chef on the wonderful Filets, cooked to perfection. Thank you to the staff of Japengo and we're coming back tomorrow night....

First and foremost, Japengo is a true 5-star restaurant in Maui, located at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa! It was my wife's birthday celebration destination -- and it would be my choice too! From the valet attendants to the concierge, the front desk (special thanks to Felma), the restaurant host, and the iconic staff at the "Circle" bar (Jen, Chris B., Mick, and Chris A.), we were always warmly greeted and taken care of. When you combine the freshest seafood with the perfect ambience, music, and design, you're truly in paradise in Maui. Thank you for making my wife's birthday celebration so special -- and we look forward to celebrating our upcoming anniversary on November 27th with you as well. We will always come back!

Nice location in Hyatt Regency, and if you're seated in the right spot, a great sunset. We showed up an hour before our reservation to have a couple cocktails at the bar, all was going great until another couple showed up wanting to have dinner at the bar and the bartenders tried their best to get us to leave for what I guess they expected to be a higher ticket. They even had the hostess approach us and ask if we'd checked in. 20 minutes before our reservation, so we had not. She told us a table would be ready soon. All too weird. At our scheduled time, we were called and taken to a table. We got a great spot and excellent service from Carrie. As others have nentioned, prices are pretty high, but quality was very good. Curry Dusted Calamari was super tasty but were really tiny pieces. Otoro Sashimi was excellent. Swordfish was very good, but plating was pretty bland. Still, a good dish. All in all, it was a good meal. I wish they hadn't made it so weird at the bar, but I'd go back.

Always a must dine for us when we island hop over to see our friends on Maui. Service and food are always exceptional and we love the remodel at the Hyatt. They have creative dishes in addition to spectacular sushi rolls and the cocktails are bombing.

We stayed at the Hyatt Regency so this was easy for convenience purposes but I would not eat here again. The food was simply okay, the service was also average. We ordered some drinks that had a heavy pour from the bar - if that is your preference, you'd love it. But for us they were too strong. I will say the view and the vibes were nice though!

I went to Japengo with a party of 13. We had made reservations in advance. A couple of thoughts: - Sushi was good, fresh and tastes great - Dessert was epic and would recommend - we were seated at two separate tables which lead to different kitchen timing for Adults vs Kids table - Service was not great.. 2-3 stars at best. Not everyone was offered drinks when we sat down, when we did all finally order them (in 3 seperate waves due to the servers inability to ask us all the first time), it was about 20 minutes into the meal and 25 min after sitting down to even order I would overall recommend and hope we had a one off service experience

I stayed at the resort and stopped by for a quick bite and drink. I didn't make a reservation and was seated at the bar. The ambiance was very intimate and beautiful views. Service was excellent, my server super attentive and fast. I tried the Ube Sour, a gin-based cocktail that was strong but balanced with the sweet ube. The fish was fresh, which I appreciated. However, the poke block missed the mark for me. The rice was hard and fell apart easily, and the poke itself didn't feel authentic. For the small portion, the price didn't feel justified. I'd be open to giving the place another shot next time.

Really nice dinner spot in the Hyatt Regency. The oceanfront views are beautiful and the vibes are set with the dim lighting and chic décor. We started with some salads that were deliciously fresh and opened up the appetite. My bf and I split the 5 piece omakase, 2 rolls, and the garlic noodles. We were surprised by how full we ended up leaving, the rolls here are ginormous! Even though they are a staggering $30 a roll, I did feel like the size of them justified the price. Of course all the fish was super fresh and buttery, and every piece of the omakase was delicious. The chu-toro was a standout, it was really melt-in-your-mouth and rich. Other orders at the table included the shaking beef noodles and the special fish of the day, which all got great reviews too. We had a delicious bottle of sake to wash everything down, and ended the night with the ginger crème brulee. We really got to enjoy dinner and weren't rushed at all, I think we got to enjoy a good 2 hours of great conversation and food. It's definitely a splurge to come here but I think the quality and vibes make it all worth it!

Very fresh, delicious sushi rolls with a spectacular view at sunset from their patio seating. This place is very popular! So definitely make sure you make reservations ahead of time if possible! Service was fast, friendly and took care of all our menu questions and request. Note, the sushi kitchen gets busy, so if you forget to order something with your main order, you might be waiting a long time to get it. So plan ahead! Highly recommend.

Hands down, Japengo was our favorite meal of the entire trip -- and it just so happened to be our last night on the island, which made it all the more special. We saw online that there weren't any reservations available, so we called to check on walk-in options. The hostess was super helpful and let us know they had bar seating open -- and it ended up working out perfectly. For drinks, we tried the 1944 Mai Tai, Ube Sour, and an Old Fashioned. The standout? The Ube Sour. Easily our favorite drink of the whole weekend -- beautifully balanced and unique. Now for the food -- we went all out and ordered the Korean Seafood Pancake, Cajun Seared Hamachi Sashimi, Omakase Sushi, Aburi Nigiri Trio, Rainbow Roll, and Hotategai (Scallops). Every bite was fresh and full of flavor, but the Korean Seafood Pancake absolutely stole the show. I'll be craving it long after we've left. Japengo delivered on all fronts: ambiance, service, drinks, and unforgettable food. Highly recommend making it part of your Maui stay -- bar seat or not!

Great service - best so far from our trip. Saw whales breaching in the sunset. Loved the shrimp tempura roll, curry dusted calamari, and the shaking beef noodles. But really the views and the service made the night.

Japengo has a fancy, beachfront Japanese vibe, we ate here three nights in a row; it was the highlight of my trip with delicious mahi mahi and the freshest sushi at sunset.

The deck was upgraded but lost its beautiful waterfall and views. Food unfortunately was not the same. Sushi was fishy. Calamari was ok. Service wasn't the best.

Dined at Japengo this evening and we're looking forward to having a nice dinner and to enjoy the Maui sunset. The hostess sat us an a table with an obstructed view. There was a pillar right in the center of our sightline. It ruined our dinner date. The waitress gave us a lame explanation about the table placement would affect surrounding tables and did not offer to move us. The restaurant had plenty of other tables available to accommodate us.

We stayed at the Hyatt and come down to Japengo one night for dinner. We had made reservations ahead of time, but on a week night there was actually quite a bit of seating still available. Our table was on a covered patio area overlooking the water, but it was nighttime when we went so we could not see much. I bet during the day/evening it is gorgeous! Menu was huge, and they had some veggie options for myself which was much appreciated! Food was a little slow to come out, but we were not in any rush so it was fine for us.

Yum! If you are looking for beautiful sunset views, great food, and an attentive staff, I highly recommend Japengo! We had the steamed clams, chefs Ono fish special, and the ahi tuna roll. Wow! I will be thinking about the garlic risotto in the fish special for the rest of my life! So good and Carrie was a great waitress, she even threw in a complimentary delicious Kaanapali pie dessert for our baby moon! Highly recommend

always a great exporience at japengo!!! i love the cajun hamachi and the kaanapali roll!!! so so excellent and the flavors are just amazing the sashimi is so good my favorite is the salmon with a lemon slice! the heirloom lavender honey carrots are also amazing!!! i love japengo :)

Had an unbelievable experience at Japengo! This place is an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived, every staff member made us feel special. Located inside the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa, this place boasts breathtaking ocean views and a cool, upscale vibe. Oh, and OMG! hands down, the best sushi I've ever had in my life (and likely ever will TBH). I tried the Chef's Special roll which changes nightly, and it was out of this world. The freshness and flavor are unmatched. The Baos were equally stellar -- Perfectly balanced and packed with the most succulent pork belly and pickled veggies. And we absolutely had to end on the Malasadas!!! They're light, fluffy, and come with a trio of dipping sauces: passion fruit, mango, and chocolate. Ugh, I die! From the stunning views to the exceptional flavors, Japengo is a place where you can truly indulge and savor every moment. I'm already dreaaaaming about my next visit!

Enjoyed a beautiful dinner at Japengo after a great day on the water fishing. I wish I remembered what everyone ordered but I was too busy enjoying the sunset and moment with family Service was top notch, view was amazing If you have the opportunity to visit Japengo in the Hyatt I highly recommend you do. Everything was amazing.... Drinks, food, service and the view!!!

Japengo was solid on my second visit - definitely a pricier spot, but that's Maui. We ordered the chef's special roll (hamachi, rice, crab, cucumber) - really good. Also got the garlic noodles, which four of us shared, though one hungry person could easily finish it solo. We ordered three rolls but probably needed four or five to really fill us all up. The highlight, though, was dessert: the Kaanapali Pie - crazy good. Chocolate layered cake with some kind of mocha or ice cream center and fudge on top - loaded with flavor. We also had the crème brûlée, which was good but didn't beat the pie. Sat on their newly opened outdoor patio with a panoramic ocean view - awesome photo spot. Service was friendly and attentive, drinks were solid (I had the mule, our friends had old fashioned - at least two rounds). Great for a date night or special occasion - my wife and I first came here for our anniversary, and if you mention that, they may comp the dessert. Indoor seating also has ocean views. Definitely make a reservation.

We've been to the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa several times (one of our favorite places). We hadn't dined at Japengo so this time decided to have try it. We were not disappointed. We had an amazing and breathtaking view overlooking the ocean. The food was delicious. The garlic noodles are a must. We had a vegetarian roll - also delicious and well-prepared. We also tried the filet mignon - cooked just right. Everything was so tasty. I would be remiss if I didn't talk about the service. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. Carrie served us - so nice and Pleasant. If you are in the area and want some really good Asian Fusion food, to enjoy an amazing view and have great service, Japengo is your spot.

Amazing food with a perfect sunset view on the deck. Fresh catch was mahi with a lemongrass sauce cooked perfectly. Our favorite dish of the night was the carpaccio. The flavors were balanced and an explosion of the taste buds! Must come here when in Maui!

Got the gluten free beef noodles. Way too much oil no flavor $48 disappointment Bar tender couldn't make a balanced drink if her life depended on it Was so hungry also

Really cool restaurant with unbelievable sunsets. Great service but was disappointed that the sushi bar was closed. Sushi was just ok, but the appetizers were great

I always will love this place and always come back. Their ube sour is delicious, all the food is amazing as pictured. We love the new expanded space above the pool. The penguin habitat is a must to visit to see the cuties, the service is consistently kind and friendly.

First night on Maui, we weren't super hungry after stopping for a snack at the food trucks by the airport. We had a reservation & they got us right in. Service was fantastic!! Beautiful view, would've been a divine sunset had we arrived earlier. We're going to try calamari at every restaurant we visit - the calamari here was probably 3.5* it was yummy and unique but not warm?? Not sure if that's the intention. We had two rolls and they were good, but not $35 good - and we live in AZ so fresh sushi in Maui should blow outs out of the water (but didn't). We're staying at the Hyatt but probably won't return to this restaurant based on prices and other sushi in the area.

We visited Japengo every time we are in Maui and pleasantly surprised by its quality. Each roll is filled & fresh. Each roll is worth every penny. However, we tried the scallops, which yes were tasty, not really worth the $40+ unless you LOVE scallops. We will be back to try something new again! The pool below is under construction and the hours are short (5-9) which made it tricky to find time to visit as we love it midday as well!

*KOREAN SEAFOOD PANCAKES* I would pay an onsurb amount of money to shake the hand of the women (or man?) who put this beautiful, perfect dish together. If I could give this place a Michelin star I would. A culinary genius works here. I love the unique dishes they have. The sushi was fresh and buttery. The combinations they put together were works of art. Had the chef's special and let me tell you- it was truly special. I know this seems dramatic but I do really love it here hahaha. Most importantly though don't forget to order the korean seafood pancakes. Shane if you're reading this we love u!

The ambiance of the restaurant was great with dim lighting and beautiful views, and the portions quite large--the nigiri included. I had the 5 nigiri omakase and uni nigiri for my main, and the uni was fantastic. And the spicy edamame was probably my favorite of the dishes we ordered. It was very well prepared compared to prior nigiri I've had. Now, the reason for the 2 star review? The service. For a ~$300 meal, the service was near rock bottom. 1. The miso soup that was ordered was never provided. Then to make matters worse, after it was cancelled (as everything else had already arrived), it still ended up on the check. 2. The pacing. The starters arrived at the same time as the main dishes. There was no pause between. And our table ended up quite full, and having to rush between cold sushi and hot dishes. 3. We didn't get soy sauce. My husband asked the waitress for soy sauce and she said she'll get it. She left and returned and proceeded to give soy sauce to the guy across from us. Much to both his and our confusion. Then she left and got us soy sauce. 4. Being rushed. There was an overall sense of being rushed. I left to go to the bathroom half way into my food and came back to a table with the food all boxed up. We were there less than an hour. 5. "The boxes are behind me." -- My husband explained what occurred while I was gone. The waitress came by and asked if I was coming back to finish my food or if I was done. He replied I'll be back. Her response was "Would you like the rest of the food boxed up?" He replied sure. And she replied by pointing behind her "The boxes are behind me." That completely confused my husband. Did she expect him to go get the boxes himself and box his food? Luckily the second male older server came by and boxed up the food for him. 6. It wasn't just us. I noticed her bring something to the couple beside us and them being confused and telling her they didn't order it. That couple appeared rushed as well. We left a 15% tip which is low for us. Would have been 10% but didn't want to stiff the older waiter that was doing his job well and we weren't sure how the tips were being split. 7. Side note: when she arrived she asked if we wanted any hot tea. We already had tea on the table that the older waiter brought. If she just looked at our table she would have seen it. Ultimately the food was good, but the service was so abysmal we're not going back. I couldn't even enjoy my food. And thus we wouldn't recommend it.

Great location within walking distance to the hotels. Beautiful outdoor area overlooking the water at kaanapali. Perfect location to see the sunset overlooking Lanai. You have to get the boa buns!!! They are the best ones I've ever had. The tuna poke has good flavor but no crunch to it. The sushi rolls had lots of fresh fish. Flavors blended well together. Fried rice was good size to share with the table as an app. Desserts were good and the lilikoi sauce was so yummy! Service with friendly and quick.

Delicious, fresh sushi and drinks, but definitely hotel pricing (think $15+ for 2 pieces of nigiri, $4 for a club soda, close to $30 for a roll, $30 for a margarita). A gorgeous view during the day and staff was very friendly and helpful. We will likely go back when we're back in Kaanapali as we had a great time, but you are definitely paying in part for the convenience of it being at a hotel near the beach. Staff was knowledgeable and accommodating about allergies, including gluten.

Tasty and fresh although expensive. The pineapple lychee was delicious and paired well with the view of the ocean.

This place is absolutely amazing! Drinks & food alike are delicious. Make a reservation well in advance because they book up! We went twice while we were there & enjoyed everything. The udon noodle bowl was phenomenal, my son loved the fried rice, & my husband couldn't get enough of the ribeye. Service was amazing & the view is amazing.

Honestly there's nothing wrong with this place. The staff was great. The views are incredible. However the food is really average for what you pay. I've had better sushi in Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc. this was not a must eat at place

Food: 2 stars, Seafood pancake pretty good. garlic noodle is so so. Ordered 3 different Sushi rolls all are mediocre and overpriced. Service: 4 stars Ambiance: 4 stars. location is convenient.

As with each trip twice a year to Maui we visit Japengo. This year we were very disappointed We were a party of six. Atmosphere was as gorgeous as ever! Menu changed and the best dish, the scallops, were taken off the menu and replaced by a very bland shrimp dish. Our sushi rolls were dried out as though they were made in the morning and sat in a fridge all day, (rice was hard and no sauce) fried rice dish was still good, but overall this once fabulous restaurant may be off the list for any future visits!

japango in lahaina has the best sushi that i have ever had in my life (75-year-old retired physician)! We had the chefs choice sashimi plate was simply amazing, amazing fantastic, extremely wonderful !!! do not miss out on this while you are in lahaina

Stop what you're doing and book Japengo now! From the moment you step in, you're surrounded by stunning views, an amazing atmosphere, and impeccable service. And the food? Absolute perfection--every single bite felt like a celebration of flavors. This place is so popular for a reason, and trust me, you don't want to miss it. We booked well in advance and only managed to dine here once, but I wish we could've gone back before leaving Maui--no chance, it's that in demand! Don't wait--secure your reservation now, and thank me later!

Sushi was good and atmosphere was great. However, I feel like I was disappointed slightly with how good the reviews were. It was good food but not near the best sushi I've ever had.

Perched above the waters off the Ka'anapali Hyatt resort another of our favorite stops while in the islands. Dinner opens at 5, reservations highly recommended. Indoor and outdoor seating options available. Attractive Asian decor is cozy but airy and frames many gorgeous views over AuAu channel toward Lahaina and Lana'i. Staff are very professional and sensitive, appearing at always the right moment. We started with the Trader Vic's original Mai Tai. This ain't your resort-style blend. Honest-to-goodness old school kinda boozy like when folk's livers were leathery. Giddyup. Wine list covers many mid to upper-tier new and old world selections including a brief list of sake. Tonite we ordered the chef's special roll of spicy tuna,cucumber and avocado under sliced blue-fin, tobiko and microgreens, (chef's special a must every time) and nigiri of o toro, and Santa Barbara uni. In the past they've served mostly Hokkaido so was nice for the change. No matter, their produce is always superbly selected. There is a variety of sides dishes that allow some creativity in composing your feast. Tonite we put together kimchee edamame mash potatoes, shiitakes braised in garlic-oyster sauce and side scallops (2 per order). Flavors are deep and satisfying without too much weight. Sides are quite generous. There are desserts that look great but we typically pass, so no comment. Come n see for yourself. Overall, excellent as always. Joe-Bob says get you some Japengo-a-go-go

We stayed at the Hyatt and were starving, thankfully we were able to get reservations here and we are so grateful. Amazing, the ambiance is beautiful, dark and a romantic light at the table. The ocean is in view and that's not even the best part, the food was wonderful, we got the chefs sushi roll which was wonderful, the beef noodles were great!!! Must try this place

Our 3rd time going there. It just keeps getting better and better! The new patio is amazing! Best views in Maui. Food is consistently fantastic and the servers are great. Being part of the Hyatt makes everything even easier and better. 5+ stars all the way.

Consistency embodies the service and food from Japengo. I have been coming here for many years through pandemic and the Lahaina fire. The hosts, wait staff and management (Alejandro) at Japengo has always been professional and offering excellent hospitality. Tonight our server Jeff made our dining experience wonderful with his recommendations and timing of dishes delivered. We prefer to eat family style and in a relaxed pace. Jeff delivered on all accounts. We always enjoy the Bao, steamed clams and tonight the chef's special sushi roll was a combination of delicate tastes. Thank you again Japengo!

We have been here many times and it is always fabulous! Jun our waiter is the best! Masa has a fantastic menu and everything is perfect every time! I also must mention Delfino is so attentive and courteous taking care of you! A must while on Maui!

Japengo tends to be a restaurant we eat at twice while we are in Maui... Partly because we stay at the Hyatt Regency, so it's convenient, but mainly because the food is always amazing! We tend to crave the California rolls and will even order to-go to enjoy in our room or out on the beach. There is a variety of options to choose from which makes it wonderful. It is not just sushi, you can choose other meals that are definitely worth it. This trip I tried the Shaking Beef Noodles and oh my gosh the beef was to die for! It was way better than I expected! The noodles and the sauce were all amazing, so I highly recommend trying that dish! But also you cannot go wrong with the California rolls because they use actual crab meet - so good!

Kinda disappointing dinner. Brought my boyfriend here for his birthday (I mentioned it was his bday in the reservation) and was only greeted at the host stand. Sat us at a not so clean table that was not even set and the server didn't greet my boyfriend even after checking his license when he ordered some wine. Thought maybe she was just going to surprise him at the end but she just brought the check for us after we boxed up our food. Cynthia was nice but I just felt they would've at least done that considering Japengo is a somewhat "fancier" restaurant. I brought my friend to the steakhouse here at the Hyatt back in March and the service was way better and they didn't forget her birthday amenity. Food was okay, most liked the udon

Great sushi upstairs looking at the ocean! We had one of the signature rolls, salad, edamame, and eel roll. Sat at the bar early at 5pm no rez. Great bartender but can't remember her name. Highly recommend.

Went here based off a locals recommendation and couldn't be happier we did. We ended up going twice because the first time was that good. Sushi was AMAZING, chicken dish great, fried rice awesome though a little greasy. Pricing was not bad considering island prices and what you got for it. I would 10/10 recommend anyone to come here! We made reservations for 5pm each night (in September) and were able to watch the beautiful sunset from our table!

Top-notch food/drinks and service in a beautiful patio setting with view of sunset. Sushi is fresh and beautifully presented. Garlic noodle, so good!
