    We love the food but last time we went the service was very very slow. It may have been due to a holiday but they should have been better prepared for that. We decided to try again and both the service and food was outstanding.

    Overlooking the golf course on the Big Island as the sun was setting created a magical night of celebrating our wedding anniversary. The food was fantastic and our service was unmatched. Thank you, Grace, for a memorable dinner. If anyone is staying in the Waikoloa Beach area, there are not a lot of high end restaurants available not connected to a resort. Mauka Bar & Grill is conveniently located and provides an excellent atmosphere for a quality meal.

    It's typical golf country club cafe. The service is very good but not a place I would go back as we're staying at waikoloa

    We had waited months to try this place because it was always crowded. Got a 7:30pm reservation on a Saturday night. Experienced a long wait for water and waiter. Long wait in between courses. Long wait for drink refills. Sound system bad and we did not appreciate the choice of music. Food was pretty good when it came.
