We came here twice in a row. First night was a takeout order after the sunset view at the Haleakala summit. Our condo was on the west side of the island, so it took an hour after getting our food before eating them. We ordered the chicken parm, and the pepperoni calzone, and caesar salad. All were delicious, especially the caesar salsa. We couldn't understand why the average rating on yelp was only 3.9 stars. It was definitely 5 stars!
We did the road to Hana the following day, and decided to dine in at this place considering our previous experience. However, we were disappointed as the dishes were all under-seasoned. We got the chicken parm again, and fettuccine alfredo, and kid's spaghetti with meatball. Chicken parm was the best of of three but lacked flavor compared to the takeout order from the previous night. And half the amount of chicken. Fettuccine was very bland. It is almost like the chef forgot to add salt and parm. The amount of salt i added to the dish was embarrassing if the chef saw me. The kid's spaghetti with meatball was decent, but the meatball was on the dry side and again lacked of salt. My son didn't like the meatball but loved the spaghetti. I would give it 3 stars for this dine-in experience. Service was great.
My suggestion is to get the takeout order because the hour that took us to drive home probably enhanced the flavor of the chicken parm. Either that or the chef changed from Tuesday to Wednesday. Also, skip the fettuccine Alfredo unless you like milk flavored bland noodles.
