Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Kihei

First... Waiter Adam C was outstanding!!!!! My husband had the Chilean Sea Bass and I had the Sanibel Chicken... both delicious. Mashed potatoes on mine was lukewarm and the broccoli was very chewy which most people would like but I like mine fork tender! I would still have again asking for more potatoes and no broccoli. We asked about bread and Adam said it was only on request only now. They may start charging for it or take it off altogether. That is sad in either case.

We had reservations for 4 on Valentine's Day (dinner). We arrived a bit early but they seated us right away. The service was friendly and relatively quick for how busy they were. Our waitress Toby was terrific. 2 of us had the Jambalaya, 1 had the spicy Chicken Katsu Sandwich and 1 had the Coconut Crusted Fish Sandwich. Everything was hot and delicious. We'll be back!

Enjoyed happy hour. The Gather Mai tai was excellent and extra with the ilikoi cream topping. Just $10 during happy hour. Poke was fresh, Brussel sprouts flavorful and spare ribs was finger licking good. Best view of the sunset… Make sure to save room for dessert. We enjoyed the pineapple butter cake with vanilla ice cream. So Happy to spend Valentine’s at this magical place. Excellent unhurried service made the evening extra special!

Monkeypod Kitchen was amazing. It surpassed my expectations, we had an amazing dinner. We ordered the seabass special and the ahi steak. Both were phenomenal. Mai tais and espresso martinis were delicious. Strawberry pie was to die for. We would definitely go back again. Also props to our amazing server, Ryan. He was attentive and gave great suggestions!

Great atmosphere. Food (burgers & fries) very good. Service very good. Loved flight options & other non-beer beverage options. Really enjoyed the two young ladies performing last night. Glad this was on our “must do” visit to Maui.
