Very nice experience. The food was incredibly flavorful, the ambiance was classy. We enjoyed the excellent wagyu ravioli with the warm fresh bread. The French onion soup and seafood chowder were great. We split the daily special Opakapaka with amazing risotto. They notified us of the extra charge to split and we were happy with did it when we saw how beautifully it was plated. Every dish was super rich and delicious. A very nice touch when they brought my husband a birthday card, dessert and took our photo. I read reviews of how incredible service was, so I think I was expecting a lot. While our server was friendly, we didn’t find it very attentive. It was busy, so I understand he had his hands full. It was a lovely fine dining experience!

Lovely vibe, incredible food, and great service! A lot of options are gluten free. I got the seared lion paw scallops, and they were some of the best scallops I’ve ever had! So soft and creamy with a delicious sauce. The truffle oil really made the dish! Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive, and the bartenders had a great time on Halloween.

An absolute must-visit fine dining restaurant. If you are in Maui, you must dine here. The atmosphere is inviting and intimate. The staff is knowledgeable of the entire menu and very polite. Their wine list is second to none. They have their own sommelier who procures vino from around the world, so you have a tremendous amount of bottled options ranging from $60 per bottle to over $10K. They have many gluten-free options or can make some options gluten-free with a chefs tweak here or there. The bowl of fish chowder was to die for and is a must-try. Lastly, the owner will stop by and introduce himself and chat with you. He provides the highest level of concierge service, which, besides the amazing food and atmosphere, is why this place consistently ranks among the very, very best in the world and deserves the reputation it has most assuredly earned.

Honestly, best service we have had in a very long time. Thank you Lisa and Eric for being so attentive. The little special touches go a long way in our book. The food matched the service and was spectacular. We were celebrating our anniversary and they took a picture of us, gave us a card, and a desert. My husband is Gluten Free and they paid very special attention to his dietary restrictions. They made sure he could still try the seafood special of the day and dessert. Even the doggy bag hanger was a nice touch.

Excellent dinner. The food was amazing. Everything sounded great so it was hard to decide what to get. The drinks we got were delicious too. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We definitely will be coming back next time we’re in Maui. This was the best meal we had on the island. Everything we got was phenomenal. The owner of the restaurant even came around and thanked us for dining there. Great experience all around.

Absolutely phenomenal food and was one of the highlights of our trip. I went with my fiance for an anniversary dinner and had incredible service and complimentary dessert. Highly recommend the rack of lamb and the steak. The soups were fantastic as well. Make sure to reserve in advance because it's all worth it!

Had a wonderful experience. Food was excellent. Service was exceptional! Only thing I didn’t really care for was the fish chowder. We really enjoyed the bufala tomato salad. Although it’s a bit pricey for what you get but it’s worth a try. The Osso Buco tasted amazing and they leave the bone marrow intact. Seared Ahi Tuna was cooked perfectly. The flavor is well balanced.

We went there to celebrate both of my parents’ 60th birthday. It was a phenomenal place! From the tequila shrimp to the slow braised boneless short ribs to the mushroom ravioli to the salmon filet, all of it was incredibly delicious and flavorful! They even surprised us with birthday cards and a beautiful dessert. Our server Mike was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu! Overall, we all had a great experience!

BEST dining experience in Maui!!!!!! We got: 1. Wagyu beef ravioli - flavorful and we were impressed to start. Use the bread to sweep up the leftover sauce! 2. Kona coffee rack of lamb - my favorite! I high fived God every time I had a bite. 3. Chef's special opakapaka - one of the best fish dishes I've ever had. If it is on the menu for the night, you should order it. 4. Triple berry pie - How could something so simple be so delicious?? I must get this again when I come back. Best part, it was on the house because we were celebrating a special occasion.

Hopefully they come back soon... It's expensive. There's no ands-ifs-buts about it. It just is... But the food was so very good. Overall, we also experienced excellent service here with one caveat. They brough out our entree before we finished our app. But they quickly realized their mistake and whisked it away. We worried they would just put in under a heat lamp until we were ready. But nope. The food tasted fresh and perfect when they eventually brought it out... In any case, we had an excellent meal!! Our wagyu ravioli and monchong entrees (a special that day) were absolutely perfect. Just perfect and excellent. This place is pricey, but given the ambiance, the quality of service, and quality of the food, it's worth it...

Wow all the amazing reviews and I was left a little disappointed. Located in old Lahaina, the restaurant doesn't really have a view so no ocean side dinner if that's what you're searching for. The restaurant is located in the middle of a little town and actually feels a bit closed off to the outside when you're in the dining room. The server was nice enough and service was pretty good. The restaurant itself claims to be fine dining but the interior feels a bit minimalistic and definitely more high end casual than fine dining, minus the white tablecloths; the atmosphere was relaxed. My meal didn't particularly wow me. We ordered the Bufala Tomato Salad - refreshing and as expected. The Bufala mozarella was fresh and delicious. The Dungeness Crab Tower was a bit on the mediocre side in terms of size and flavors. We've definitely had better crab towers elsewhere. My main course, the Maui Onion and Sesame Crusted Seared Ahi actually had a flavor I didn't enjoy. Not sure what it was but the Red Snapper Special tasted much better in terms of flavor profile. Drinks were alright as well. The overall experience was just okay to me, which was disappointing considering the great reviews overall.

WOW. Trust me, just make the reservations and eat here during your trip to Maui. Lahaina Grill was recommended to me by a local for my trip to Maui. We were celebrating my partner's big milestone birthday and wanted somewhere special that we could create a lasting memory. Lahaina grill delivered! I made reservations 3 months in advance to our trip. Lahaina Grill staff went above and beyond to make our celebration special. The host greeted my partner by name and wished him a happy birthday, we got a digital photo sent to us that was taken at our table, and the entire staff signed a birthday card. A ++++ on service. Now the food. We started with the Caviar Deviled Eggs and the Dungeness Crab and Lobster Cake. The Deviled Eggs were loaded with Caviar. A mouthful of eggs in every bite. The Crab and Lobster cake was filled with meat. Lacking the typical filler here - no complaints ;) Our entrees were absolutely stunning in appearance and flavor. My partner had the Sesame Crusted Ahi. A huge tender chunk of Ahi under perfectly roasted sesame crust. Savory with a slight sweet flavor from the caramelized Maui Onions. I had the Parmesan Crusted Monchong special. We had never heard of Monchong. It's apparently a deep sea Hawaiian fish. Cooked perfectly with every flaky delicate bite filled accompanied with saffron risotto. The entrees were sized accordingly to the price and was very filling. Finally, a Triple Berry Pie came out for dessert with a blue candle for birthday wishes. The triple berry pie was great. Not overly sweet and big enough for two. We would definitely visit Lahaina Grill again. It was the highlight meal of our trip!

I can imagine Lahaina Grill in it's respected place as one of the best restaurants on Maui is a four star restaurant on many days of the year. Tucked on the side street two blocks off of Front St, Lahaina Grill dominates the block with an adjacent hotel and two seating areas. Our party sat near the bar. The menu feels very traditional, non-adventurous, what one would find for dinner or room service at a Mandarin Oriental anywhere around the world. Steak, lamb chops, scallops. The prices are extreme for what they were, we called it the +$30 Maui tax on each entree item. As a special appetizer, the clams in broth were delicious with a touch of sweetness from the lapxuong Chinese sausages. The table shared the fish special as well, it sat on corn risotto. It was a tasty preparation, but one couldn't help but think the risotto of the day is corn or mushroom a lot here. The lamb chops were well-prepared, I could tell consistency was a big deal here after the owner Jerg explained his background and the restaurant's history. The same vegetable sides came with each dish, consistent like microwave dinners. The deviled eggs were decent and so were the sides we ordered. Our water glasses remained filled as we shared some conversation with passerbys and staff. That is where the pleasantries stop. I ordered a difficult drink for the bar, one I use to judge cocktail making skills of bartenders. It was a sour mess, there is no real drink program here so I would suggest sticking to basics. I should have sent it back in hindsight. I also left my napkin on my chair several times on my chair to see if any of the staff were trained to put it back. I guess most of the service attention to detail was to used to memorize the most expensive appetizers and entrees to recommend. Our waitress almost stepped on my napkin, I was afraid they would charge me for a new one. Falsified class and just rudeness is what rubs me here at Lahaina Grill. For $100+ per person, I felt conned. There is an undertone of pretentiousness, obnoxiousness, greed and grime that accompany the white linen tablecloths. The acoustics are loud, the wait staff are of two ilks. A few, were true hosts/hostesses, barbacks, service professionals trained in actual service. The other, like carneys posing as waitstaff, looking for their next sucker to pitch a baseball at weighted cans or purchase an overpriced blurry photograph package of your family. As none of the desserts jumped out to the table as worth trying, we opted for no dessert. Our waitress Brianna eyes rolled deeply into the back of head as she heard this and snatched the menu out of my hand. The owner, Jerg will probably have to hit the reset button in her to get them back in place. Kind as he was, the reset button is probably far up there. We did get free dessert as part of a celebratory occasion. It was the berry fruit tart which was very jammy and sweet. A nice card prepared by the staff was also present. As I paid for the lackluster experience, Brianna stood awfully close to the credit card machine protecting her precious tip. And maybe intentionally, there is no spirit of Aloha or Mahalo when they rob you at Lahaina Grill. But there should be.

Restaurant with a very intimate feel! Service was fantastic and the food was pretty darn good :) I'm glad I went with the servers recommendation it did not disappoint. Make sure you ask for the house baked bread and butter. The butter is amazing and infused w garlic and onions. For my entree I had the catch of the day which sat on a champagne corn miso infused risotto (amazing - if this is an option I would highly recommend it) My wife had the scallops - I tried some and it was very tasty as well but can't complete w the catch of the day and the risotto :) Overall fantastic restaurant. Kind of pricey but would highly recommend.

By far our favorite meal that we had in Maui! If you're visiting the area, you really have to have a meal at Lahaina Grill. The restaurant is right by downtown Lahaina, which is great to walk by for shops and a nice ocean view. For the parking, it is a bit difficult to find free parking but there are lots nearby that charge $10 for 2 hours of parking. The service was amazing, and we felt that they were responsive to our needs and very attentive. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful too; I love the large paintings all over the walls. For the food, I highly recommend the monchong. We've had it at other restaurants in Maui, but it was particularly good here. The fish was very crispy on the outside while also being perfectly tender and flakey. The sauce was very good as well. We also liked the seafood chowder the wagyu beef ravioli. For the ravioli, the inside meat was just okay, but the sauce was amazing. Our server kindly gave us two more plates of starter bread so that we could dip it into the ravioli sauce to enjoy it some more. Lastly, the triple berry pie we recommended by our server, and it was a hit! We usually aren't fans of fruit pies, but they make it so well here.

My wife and I were recommended to this place and we received an available spot later that day (a bit after dinner). Reservation is a must and we really got lucky since someone backed out. Parking was easy since to find -- either on Front Street for street parking or the JAC Parking on Lahainaluna Road. The service was great and the bartender in front of us was very friendly and professional. I enjoyed their Maui Mule (~$20) which included ocean vodka and maui brewing island ginger beer. What I really liked was that they used local ingredients. I ordered the Center Cut Certified Angus Beef 7 Oz. Filet Mignon (~$80). The meat was cooked wonderfully medium rare and the side herbed mashed potato was a delightful combination. it was good, but not great. I wasn't full after finishing this meal. Overall good experience. I was just a bit bummed that I paid ~$100 (not including tax/tip or what my wife ordered) and still left wanting to eat more.

My partner and I landed on Lahaina Grill as our splurge meal in Maui for his birthday -- it was close by us and easy to get reservations a few weeks in advance (vs Mama's or Merriman's), which was a definite perk. We had a great experience from the moment we sat down. We were seated promptly, service was impeccable, and everything we had was great. Between us, we shared the goat cheese and arugula salad (very good), short rib (solid but not a stand out), and the fish special, which was a white fish served on top of crab risotto (incredible). The cocktail menu was creative and gin-forward, which I appreciated. We shared a key lime martini with dessert, which was inventive and tart. Since we were celebrating a birthday, we got a complimentary piece of berry pie, which was delicious and likely what we would have ordered if picking for ourselves anyway. Would 100% return, especially to celebrate a special occasion.

Came to Maui for our honeymoon and had to try this place out! With so many reviews we tried making reservations online but they were booked almost 3 months in advance, we decided to try calling to see if we could get a reservation time and we were able to! so if they are all booked online, I would def try calling and you might get lucky like we did! Right when we walked in we were immediately greeted and walked to our table! the ambiance is French quarter like, and super classy! We sat down and ordered some drinks, I got the Bee Sting, which was amazing! i would say it's their take on a lemon drop. It's fruity, refreshing, and sweet! I loved it since I'm the type that doesn't like the taste of alcohol. And my husband got the aperol spritz. For appetizers we got the wagyu ravioli and crab cake. Crab cake was okay, I've had better. It seemed a bit dry to me. And was nothing memorable. For the wagyu ravioli, I'll be dreaming about this dish for a while! This was phenomenal! it was so delicious, and we got a bread service, so dipping the bread in the extra sauce of the ravioli is a must! My husband and I also shared the fresh fish chowder, this was also okay. It was the catch of the day fish which was delicious, but overall the soup was too chunky my for my liking. The soup base was my favorite part of the soup, if the soup was just the soup base, it probably would have been one of my favorites of this whole meal. For entrees I got the scallops which were perfectly cooked and in this amazing sauce. It's served over a bed of mashed potatoes and seasoned vegetables. My husband got the meatballs and that was okay. We had also ordered a side of the risotto of the day, and that never came out, but to be honest we were kind of glad they forgot to bring it out because we were too full to even finish our entrees. So I'm not going to dock them on that. Plus they came by the table many times to ask how we were doing, and we had many opportunities to mention it if we really wanted it. For dessert We were given a triple berry pie! Since we were celebrating our honeymoon, they gave us this complementary. It was very good, but my husband and I aren't pie people. And again, this was okay. Service The service here was amazing. Our waiter and every employee we came in contact with were super generous and welcoming. They definitely make sure your accommodated and want to make sure you're having the best experience. I really did enjoy myself here, but I don't think I'll come back. It's one of those places where it's a one and done experience. For the price, I've had better meals. So that's the only reason.

Love it here. Would recommend to everyone to come here and eat. I would come back here again the next time I'm in Maui. Everything was cooked to perfection. Food was very fresh. In fact, the monchong what I ordered came like 15 minutes before the restaurant opened. So that was exciting. I loved that I tried a new fish (monchong) and it was incredible. The chef was magical. I love all the food here and I would make reservations here when I come back to maui. Everything from our salad to our entrees and dessert, everything was top notch for me. I've been dreaming about that Mon Chong that I had here. And for our special day, they gave us the triple berry pie. It was amazing!! love love love it here. I can see why this restaurant was rated highly. And when we got home, they sent us the picture that they took of us at our dinner to temper our special day by.

Excellent service! Food is pricey but worth every penny! We went with our friends as it was both of our 16th anniversary. The free photo emailed to us was a great touch. Jurge & Sheri have the best personal service! I appreciate their help with making our anniversary so special. Loved my rack of lamb, and the escargot is to die for. To top it off, the desert (especially the berry pie) is a must. You will not be disappointed with anything on the menu. It's my 6th time here, and I will be back again!

Came highly recommended by a colleague that ironically hadn't dinned here, as they have a young child. We were very lucky to get the reservation we did and jumped on it! Place is absolutely beautiful with stunning artwork on the walls with Sinatra and others from that era playing in the background. Our server Richard was incredible! He had great suggestions. We decided to get the Chili Rellano with Tiger Prawns and scallops. This was split for us in the kitchen. Presentation was great and crispy coating on the fresh pepper was really tasty. We then got the coffee crusted rack of lamb. Again split for us. Great presentation and it cut like butter. Served with the roasted garlic. It was fantastic. Richard followed this up with a berry pie for our anniversary. This too was great! Drinks were also spot on. Had a wonderful experience and can't wait to return!

Was only able to get a 8:45 pm reservation on a Saturday night even a month or two in advance because this place is so popular! First of all, parking is a bit of a nightmare in this area. Front street is always packed, so make sure you come early if you're driving to find a spot. This place is classy, so come dressed up a little bit. The staff members wore masks and were super nice. Gluten free options were listed as GF on the menu. We started off with some cocktails, I personally really enjoyed the bee sting the waiter recommended. It was so different with the Hawaiian moonshine and lavender honey. My husband really enjoyed the smoking gun cocktail which had whiskey and scotch.That was right up his alley. We got the wagyu ravioli as per waiter's recommendation because that's the most popular app to get apparently. And it was sooo good. The most impressive thing about it was the sauce. We could not get enough of it and the waiter gave us more bread so we could soak it all up. We also ordered the fish chowder because we wanted to try the fish and a bit of the monchong fish which we've never had before. And they gave you a lot of fish in that soup. The chowder is very different from your new england claw chowder. It's not creamy at all and very light. Delicious. For our entrees we ordered the Chef Arnie's homemade meatballs, and this was the dish that probably was our favorite of the night. The meatball itself was so fluffy and flavorful. The sauce and pasta paired perfectly with the meatball, and is actually a pretty filling entree. We also ordered the slow braised short rib, which was so tender and delicious with the sauce. But this dish didn't stand out as much as the meatball because I felt that I've gotten a short rib just as good as this in NYC. Overall, very good food, but I honestly gave it 4 stars because of how pricey the food was. This was probably even pricier than some fine dining with the i've gone to in NYC. And obviously it's because we're in the middle of maui and the pacific ocean, so I can't really compare, but I just felt that many of the items were not worth the amount we paid.

We had a great dinner at Lahaina Grill! We had reservations and we ended up showing up about 20 minutes early and they were able to seat us right away! We had planned on doing the tasting menu but unfortunately they are not offering it right now. We instead got a couple appetizers and split the fish special that was super tasty! The owner also makes his way around to every table which is very nice. I would definitely recommend coming here for a nice dinner!

Our experience coming here during our stay in Maui was amazing. It's a must for all visitors! The ambiance and atmosphere was welcoming and made the dinner that much more enjoyable, from the start! We ordered a lot to try and everything killed expectations. The wagyu ravioli was a highlight as an appetizer. Aside from this, the onion soup, chowder and cocktails were a home run. The scallops and crab cake were also great selections before diving into the key lime pie martini as dessert (highly recommend drinking your dessert if you're too full to order the dessert sampler, which we wish we had room to order as we were teased seeing multiple walk past our table during our dining experience). Can't wait to come back, definitely don't miss this spot when you're in Maui!

You need to make a reservation a few months out before coming here, and even so we still had to wait 15-20 minutes before we were seated - that's how busy it is. We came here for my birthday and it was such a wonderful experience. The food, the service, and the atmosphere was all perfect. This is the type of place where you'll always think back to and be so happy you went. It is on the pricier side, but you're getting great food and great memories along with that. Parking: we paid for public parking a block or two away from the restaurant. If you can get there earlier and find street parking, definitely go for it. Food: they provide complimentary bread with garlic and rosemary butter which tastes amazing after a day of swimming, walking, and snorkeling. We started off with the wagyu beef ravioli (the sauce was soo good) as well as the fish chowder. I also got the mahi mahi dish, which is the same dish that's on the front of their menu. It was so delicious. I can almost still taste all the flavors dancing around in my mouth. I would definitely order this same entrée again. I also got this lavender cocktail which was super light and smooth - I definitely recommend it. We finished off with a slice of the triple berry pie (forgot to take a photo, that's how excited I was) which was beyond what I expected. It was such a refreshing dessert, which you normally don't expect. 10/10 recommend!

The food is always amazing. The scallops are great every time. The old fashion cocktail is very tasty. Last Time the service was better it was pretty slow and I think we were overlooked a bit. I will say that both times I have eaten I had to kill a cock roach on the floor or wall. Not sure this maybe normal to the area

Came here as a recommendation from some friends. This restaurant is located in busy, touristy Front St. in Lahaina. While this restaurant does lack sunset views that other restaurants have in Maui, it certainly makes up for and beyond with its service as well as food. To start off, we had their bread service. Hot and fresh bread was brought over with most amazing compound butter. It had herbs and garlic mixed in, and it was divine. We started with the wagyu beef ravioli as an appetizer. Nice and tender meat filling and the brandy mushroom cream sauce was perfect. Our server actually suggest we get some more bread just to dip in the sauce and her recommendation was spot on! For salad, I had bufala tomato salad. It's their take on a caprese salad with some twists... flavorful raw and diced Maui onions as well as black Hawaiian sea salt. The mozzarella was creamy and soft and paired well with the balsamic, oil, and salt. The diced raw onions added it a nice crush to the dish and pop of flavor. For entree, I went with the fish special of the day. I believe it was Hawaiian pink snapper. Delicate and tasty on top of a bed of risotto. Fabulous. The restaurant is very cute and nostalgic inside. It was a little loud since the space is on the smaller side and the bar is prominently located near the middle of the restaurant. Service was outstanding... besides our own very knowledgeable server, we also never were without fresh ice cold water frequently topped off and plates/utensils cleared. We also enjoyed the timing of the service since we ordered multiple courses. Nothing was rushed and we were allowed to enjoy each course with ample time and rest until the next course. Overall phenomenal restaurant experience.

We were celebrating our 35th (eeek!) wedding anniversary and booked seats at the bar as recommended by friends who visit the Grill on a regular basis. Hubbs actually put on suede loafers instead of slippers, and I dusted down a dress, so we were all glammed up for our date night :) We scored free street parking outside which was a good start to the night. But sadly it went downhill when we entered the LG. Our booking had been changed from the bar to a small table for 2 at the back of the restaurant. We always eat at the bar if we can as the vibe is more relaxing. We looked at the empty bar where only 4 people were seated and couldn't understand why we had been bumped, but there wasn't much we could do. Service was fast, a little too fast, but luckily we had perused the menu at home and knew what we wanted already, although the risotto threw me a curve ball as I was expecting mushroom and it turned out to be smoked mozzarella which I'm not keen on. We ordered: Godello wine - a Spanish wine akin to Chablis, apple/lemon/mineral notes, very refreshing and easy to drink Blood Orange mocktail - mixed with spices, smells like Christmas in a glass Caviar Devilled eggs - you only get one egg, halved, sitting on celery microgreens so a very small portion but the caviar is the price factor Onion Soup - I always order this if on the menu. It is my litmus dish to test a chef. This one was delicious, full of flavour with a melty cheese topping. Don't burn your mouth as it comes out piping hot! Chile Relleno - This was a disappointment as it had an Italian marinara sauce instead of a Mexican salsa base so it was a little odd tasting. No heat, no Mexican spices, just blah bland. Duck Confit - the hit of the evening! Duck falls off the bone, the sauce is delicious and the mash was tasty even though you couldn't actually taste the foie gras specifically. The roast garlic was a hit as Hubbs loves it! Early in our meal a server came to give us a nice card signed by the staff and had a camera ready, but I declined. I don't like photos which might be used for advertising purposes, plus we just wanted a quiet date night. I found this a little tacky, along with the free dessert we were given. Yes, I know, it sounds ungrateful of me, and my hubby did enjoy the delicious berry pie immensely, it just felt a little tacky and disneyesque, run of the mill type of event at the restaurant. Not really sincere. A little uncomfortable. I just didn't like the vibe of the restaurant for some reason. It felt old school and the dishes used the same ingredients in every dish so felt a little school cafeteria too. Bland and boring, expected and nothing unusual. With so many chefs on Maui creating unusual and exciting dishes it just felt....meh. The price point didn't match the menu. We have had far better meals on Maui (nYlos in Paia, Japengo in Kaanapali, Ekolu Kitchen 1279 in Kihei). Plus no Kamaaina discount. I think we will give this restaurant a miss in future. It seems to cater to the older crowd of tourists who like conservative bland food in an 'upmarket' destination.....without a view.

Highly recommended to us and hit the mark. Set in quaint Lahaina near shopping and beautiful views. Great ambience for fine dining. Wine list was good but a bit pricey for the quality. The food was excellently presented and flavorful. Some unique dishes to savor. Another must while in Maui

Thank you Jeremy for making our anniversary and return to Maui post Covid lockdown exceptional. Literally had tears as the tomato salad arrived at our table.

Had an rsvp for Thursday 845pm. Arrived around 820pm and was sat at 850pm im the back 2 top where storage is. We were so hidden that our server almost forgot about us. The owner made good round to every table BUT us! He even looked straight at our table and skipped it... no idea what that was about. By the time we were complete with our dinner it was like 11pm. The food was decent, the service by our server Michael was alright... could've done without Lahaina Grill. Probably won't be returning...

Do yourself a favor and make reservations because they fill fast and there's no other way you can get a table. Before even coming here, what I loved looking at the menu was the desserts. The fact that they offer a sampler platter where you can choose 4 different desserts and get mini versions to try. I am the kinda person that has fear of missing out. I am also the kinda person that loves many different desserts and different flavors. And their dessert menu has many options that I wanted to try so the fact that I could get 4 of them, I was so damn excited. Our dinner and apps were super good and I had a hard time choosing what to get because everything sounded delicious. I will definitely be back to try more.

Food: 2/2 Service: 2/2 Accessibility: 1/1 Not exactly a 5 star review, but I'd give it a 4.5 if I could (explained in Accessibility). Food: The food was amazing and we felt full for a pricey dinner! Never had fish chowder, but wow it was very rich and there was a lot of fish in it! All in general the food quality was great! Service: The servers were great; waters were filled up frequently, our questions were easily answered and we were checked up on frequently. Accessibility: Clean fine dining menu, the menus were clear in what their dishes were and what was in it. So what's the problem? For some reason my seat made my bum very itchy; I thought it was just me but my wife mentioned it happening her as well. Not enough to dock a star in my opinion but I just wanted to mention it. Very good place though!

The service is amazing! The food even better. The moment we entered the restaurant everyone that works there makes you feel welcomed. The wagyu ravioli and veal dish were properly prepared. I also liked the bottle of wine that was recommended. Everything was well made and delicious!

Truly a Hawaiian Fine Dining. Voted top 10 fine dining in US. It didn't disappoint at all. From the service to the food - it was all superb. Glad that we book two months prior to our dinner. Since we are a party of 8- we initially booked two reservations for party of 4 and left a comment if they can sit us nearby. The restaurant read our request and called us and put us in one table. Every dish we had was amazing. Fresh fish with great flavors. Even the salads where great. Make sure you get the dessert sampler. It's always great to be a big group and able to try many dishes. I recommend asking the specials which I got- monchong. That fish was perfectly cook with great flavors. Other dish like mahi mahi, ravioli, fresh sashimi were are amazing. Don't eat to much bread and house butter- but it's hard to do. Highly recommend eating here. I felt bad for people that didn't make reservations and could eat here like the French family who came unprepared to Maui. One of my friends was lucky to get reservation this week thru their hotel concierge- they did seat on the bar but noted it was worth it.

Came here for a "splurge" Christmas celebration after reading Yelp and all the buzz and we were very happy with the whole experience. We splurged with apps and frankly, I was full by the time we finished they were so rich and delicious. But of course we ordered entrees and took half of them home for another meal. See the pics for what we got--there were no complaints about any of them but the wagyu beef ravioli was probably the hit app. Really great ambience and excellent service. Beautiful artwork throughout. Highly recommend for a splurge!

Beautiful fine dining restaurant in the heart of Lahaina, Maui. Bright, noisy, clean and Covid conscientious. Tip: book a reservation early, try to get a window seat. There are no ocean views, but that's the only downfall. Great service, awesome award winning food. Great wine selection. We had a variety of dishes between the 4 of us, beet salad, Maui onion soup, and seafood chowder to start. Fresh warm sourdough rolls w/garlic chive butter. For the main course, osso buco, braised short rib and mahi-mahi. Osso buco was my fav. For dessert, the sampler was more than enough to share between all 4 of us. You can choose which 4 to share. Everything was tasty, cooked well, clean distinct flavors, and amazing portions. We did not leave hungry and had leftovers to take home. The dessert winner was the road to Hana chocolate mousse, rich dark chocolate everything. After all the flavor richness throughout the meal from goat cheese on soaked beets, to the marrow in the osso buco reduction, to the garlic chive butter on rolls, the slightly bitter, smooth, chocolate finish was the perfect conclusion to an amazing meal. They do not allow children under the age of 12 to dine currently due to the Covid vaccination requirements currently, though I saw a family w/a young infant in a carrier in the restaurant. Something to ask when making reservations, as Covid state mandates change all the time. I'd highly recommend this spot for a beautiful meal if you are in the town of Lahaina.

We were here before the fires and had an outstanding memorable last meal before our flight out. It was so hard to leave this beautiful island, amazing restaurant ... we absolutely loved everything we were served.

This was one of our splurge dinners during our trip to Maui, and well worth it! The place seems a bit crowded at first, but you notice everything around you working like clockwork and I was in awe at their quiet efficiency. Their portions are generous, and I'm glad I didn't get an appetizer (or a salad) for myself before the main course. Our server Richard, was exceptional. He had recommendations for us and the food that came out was just perfect. Starting off with the fish chowder where the herbaceous oil complimented the soup perfectly. We got the sesame crusted ahi tuna, this was my favorite, and the tuna was cooked to perfection, I recall pronouncing it "life changing" at my first bite! Everything about this dish was outstanding. We also got the veal osso bucco which was delicious too. The road to Hana was a great decadent chocolatey dessert ... I could eat this all day! And yes, they bring out some awesome dinner rolls with onion seed butter, before the food, do not skip these!! A place to come in for a special occasion and splurge!

I wasn't sure what to expect from this place, but I was blown away! The service was a little slow, but the food was phenomenal!!! We got appetizer: warm pecan crusted goat cheese and baby arugula salad-very good, nothing you wouldn't expect; Maui onion soup-cheesy and creamy and greatness! Entree: the daily special-one of the best dishes I had in Hawaii (red snapper with pineapple purée sauce) and the seared lion paw scallops (very good flavors! Dessert: triple Berry pie-pretty good, not my favorite

As former Maui residents, Regina and I have eaten there many times since it opened in 1990, though never together. We rectified that while visiting Maui for a week. Our server Scott was totally awesome from start to finish. Regina had a Maui Mule and I had g & t. Nicely done. We followed with a Lobster Crab cake, Tequila Shrimp and the Seafood Special. We had a couple of Bee Stings and Smith Woodhouse Tawny Ports. Simply said, it just doesn't get better.

Lahaina Grill was one of the highlights of our trip to Maui. From beginning to end the restaurant makes you feel like you're entering a cozy yet high end experience. -tequila shrimp was fantastic and both members of our party that got it loved it! I got the fresh catch and loved it too. My girlfriend and I got a non-alcoholic cocktail and it was delicious. Would definitely come back!

Probably the best high end restaurant on Maui. Expectations (and pricing wise), I'd put this as comparable to a solid one Michelin star restaurant - there isn't anything super unique here, but most dishes were well made and at a price point of roughly 150 a person, it's worth a stop if you are looking for something fancier in Maui. Sweet onion Maui Soup - 1.5/5. The big miss we had of the night. Soup was just way too salty to be enjoyable sadly, though it would have been good if it had less salt. Deviled eggs with caviar - 3/5. Tastes were okay, but the dish just felt a bit too simple and not worth the money. Wagyu beef ravioli with mushroom sauce - 4.5/5. Texture of the beef was really good, sauce was good without being overwhelming. I'd save your French dinner rolls so you can use this sauce as dip for it as it was quite good. Opakapaka special - 4.5/5. Fish was cooked well and was tender and flaky. Liked the sweet sauce that came with it, risotto was creamy and well done. Scallops - 4.5/5 seared well, very tender. What you'd expect out of this dish, and done well. Berry pie - 4.5/5. Can really taste the berries rather than the sugar, just the right amount of tart, crust was good.

This place was our last date night spot before we left the next day! They called me ahead to make sure they had my new last name correct so they could address us appropriately! Took a free photo of us as well to commemorate our honeymoon, then sent it via email. The food was delicious we both got the special that evening and it was so worth the price! The bees knees cocktails went down a bit too easy as well. They gave us a free dessert on the house, key lime pie. Not too sweet and not too tart. Very balanced! Such a lovely fine dining spot! Will definitely return next time we visit Maui!

Not my first time here and definitely not my last! I was lucky enough to get last minute reservations for tonight. You normally have to book at least 2 months in advance but someone canceled last minute and I took their spot. For starters, hubby and I got the wagyu beef ravioli and the golden and red beet salad. Both dishes were incredible! I recommend keeping your sourdough bread to dip in the ravioli sauce. For entrees, I ordered the braised short rib and hubby ordered the mahi mahi. We loved both dishes! For dessert, we were given a complimentary slice of triple berry pie for our anniversary. We didn't even leave a crumb on the plate because it was that good! If you can snag a reservation, I highly recommend coming here!

Amazing choice for a romantic dinner on our Hawaiian honeymoon. We made reservations in advance (which you definitely need) after our friend recommended this place to us. We had a wonderful server who took the time to give us his recommendations and was well-versed in the proper wine pairing for my entree. There is so much on the menu that sounded good to us, we will absolutely come here again on our next visit to Maui so we can enjoy more menu highlights!

10/10 recommend coming here while in Maui. We made reservations, which you absolutely need, prior to arriving for our trip. Our server was Buddy who providing a great welcoming service. Buddy was funny, concise, and made us feel comfortable. The entire staff was attentive and created a seamless experience while eating here. For appetizers we had the wagyu beef ravioli which were delicious and come in a portion of 3 raviolis. We also shared the Maui onion soup which was just okay in my opinion. We ordered the lamb special and the monchong. The lamb was delicious, super tender and the bed of bleu cheese potatoes it was served on were the best. The monchong fish wasn't my personal taste but my fiancé loved it and was satisfied with the order. We finished our dinner with 2 cups of coffee which was the perfect ending to our meal. Overall we had an amazing experience. Out the door with tip included our bill was about $300. This is a pricey restaurant but we'll worth it. The only thing that disappointed me was the owner was walking around talking to every table, checking in on them and introducing himself. He checked on the table next to us several times. I felt the only reason he did this was because we were young and that disappointed me.

Sadly was underwhelmed. I've had $20 cocktails before, but they looked and tasted like works of art, but the 2 I had were uninspiring. My sister and I agreed that we didn't feel we had anything to rave about especially for the price. Escargot was good but a little bland. Clam appetizer and goat cheese arugula salad were good. Scallop entree was too salty. The service and the herb butter for your toasted baguette roll was excellent.

THE BEST RESTAURANT! They deserve every award and recognition they've earned. This was easily the most memorable and delicious meal we had during our vacation. The atmosphere is inviting, the ambience is a mix of fine dining meets island casual. Think white table cloth and servers with white aprons without the pretentiousness. You might find the high level dining experience at certain restaurants in Wailea, but NONE will compare to what you experience at Lahaina Grill. The service is TOP NOTCH. You can feel that the employees really care about their guests. Everyone from the woman who booked my reservation, to the very pleasant hostess who gave us multiple seating options, the busser who was impressively attentive, and a huge shout out to our server Michael, who made us feel like the most important people in the restaurant. This place really shines and stands out amongst the many restaurants I've dined at over the years. The food is fresh, well coursed, thoughtfully presented and absolutely delicious. Make sure your order the bufala tomato salad, wagyu beef ravioli to start. I had the chefs special, Opakapaka (Pink snapper) that was cooked perfectly and my wife had the boneless short rib which was full of flavor. Lastly, the desserts are INCREDIBLE. Their signature is the triple berry pie, which they brought out to congratulate us on our wedding anniversary but the ones that really stood out were the Kula lime tart and the melt in your mouth, made to perfection, peanut butter mousse cake. It's UNREAL, do not leave without trying them. I ordered one extra to go. I don't drink but they have a very impressive cocktail program and wine selection as well that my wife thoroughly enjoyed. Check out their website to see their accomplishments. Thank you again to the LG team for an experience we will not forget.
