The other reviewers giving one star are right. We ordered the seared ahi salad, and it looked good in the pics, and just to make sure it was served with the mixed greens, we checked and was told yes. After a long time, the order arrived, and looked decidedly less delicious than the pics, and surprise, it was NOT mixed greens, even though they had confirmed it when we arrived. Oh, and the table was not wiped when we arrived.
We sat at the bar and the bartender was just lovely. We had a 3 hour layover so it was nice to have a place to get good drinks and food. I had the chicken blt, he had the burger and we shared an appetizer of Ahi tuna. Would go again if we get to the airport
I asked the hostess for a hot water to go. She told me due to their liquor license they could not provide to go beverages. I then asked if I could just get a cup of hot water and would sit with it. She then told me it was normally free for paying customers. I offered to pay amd she said she would need to ask the manager. I also explained I needed the water for medicinal tea and again offered to pay. I watched as the manager shook his head no. The hostess explained I was a liability. I believe either her or the other waitress would have provided me the hot water if not for the manager.
Servers are nice, but the portions are small for the airport price. $18 nachos and you get about 18 chips. The lady next to me ordered a pork sandwich and the bun was twice as big as the meat scooped on top. Drinks were good though.
Not a good place to eat... so disappointed... I had no choice to eat there because this restaurant was the only one open. I was waiting for my fly. Every one there was unsociable and i was incomfortable. They did not clean our table and did not give us water. I ordered a house burger and the patty was overcooked, taste nothing, taste and smell burn. Terrible!! The customer service have to change for the best. Small portion for the price!
Note the to-go cooler if you need to feed a baby! Might not be many other options...
Ordered takeout so unfortunately paid in advance. The grossest and smallest portion of calamari I have ever had. 6 soggy rings and 4 burnt tiny tentacle pieces. Some weird sweet chili sauce. $15 USD plus tip. They’re lucky they have a captive audience at the airport. This place would go out of business instantly if they were located anywhere else.
This place is WAAAAY over rated. First, the Google search indicated it was open until 11pm. It was a seat yourself night. We arrived at 915pm and was told we only have 45 mins until they closed. There is a QR code at the table but is "locked" until you could get someone's attention to come "unlock" it for you. We waited 10 mins to get someone's attention. BTW it is the ONLY PLACE OPEN at night unless you count the newsstand. We ordered a Kahlua Pork sandwich (with very little meat on the bun) and fries (which were the highlight) and the chicken tacos with chips & "salsa". The pork was good. The tacos were pregrilled and warmed up see photos. And the salsa was chopped up tomatoes. The bill was a whopping $60 for 2 meals and 1 soda. The service was HORRIBLE and we felt more like a burden than a guest. But I guess if it is the ONLY thing open then you go (which is likely what they are planning on.) Eat outside of the airport or even the newsstand snacks. Or make sure your flight is earlier so you can get better food.
Had a late flight leaving Maui and we decided to eat at the airport.. wish we would have stayed at Sammy’s restaurant, but being in service industry it was 9:40 and they closed at 10 so we went to Stinger Ray’s because their hours say close at 11. Got there and they told us they actually close at 10 and if we were seated we would HAVE to be out the door at 10. Decided to order food to go because we were hungry. We sat and watched as there was a table finishing up there wine inside and the server or manager literally went up to them at 10:21 and said ok, it’s past 10 you all need to leave. I’ve been in restaurants for 16 years and COVID or no COVID I’ve never in my life seen a restaurant tell paying customers to leave because it was past there closing time. I know we all have thought it as managers and servers but would NEVER say that to our guests! Ridiculous! Our to go food was the least favorite meal we have had since being in Maui by the way.
It seems the attitude that restaurant managers have at the Maui airport OGG, is that no one will come back since most people are in transit. Because if they were seeking regular clients, they would definitely improve their menu. I ordered a beer and a $17 appetizer of calamari. The appetizer arrived over cooked, tasteless and rubbery. I was going to eat it anyway if I could get a new order of the ones that were over cooked but the manager would not allow it. I did have the option of canceling the order. Which I did. The waitress was most congenial and understanding. Service was excellent. And my beer was good lol !
