    We always order the herb crusted catch of the day which happened to be ono, a white mild fish. Included were mash potatoes and green beans with a special drizzle of port wine sauce. Beyond delicious! Extremely flavorful. Service and view outstanding. Make reservations ahead of time or the wait is up to 1hr.

    Made a reservation a month in advance asked for a table on the outside window for 2 arrived and was told we could have that but it would be 20 to 30 minutes. Got the phone message 35 mins later that our table was ready and then we were seated nowhere near the window. Waste of time and watched other people come in after us and take the tables I had requested. Frustrating to say the least. Very poor organization on your front end.

    We had 3 dinners at Leilani’s while on Maui. One was downstairs and two were in the dining room upstairs. The food and service were outstanding and the sunset views were awesome. Mahalo to Jack Starr and Maggie!

    We hadn't eaten here in years and we were pleasantly surprised. We enjoyed everything we ordered including the rib appetizer, romaine kale salad, Maui salad, parmesan fish and herb roasted fish entrees. Perfectly prepared and tasty. Our server, Holly, was a gem. Wish there were more than 2 dessert options.

    The view is incredible . The ambience with live music playing below is amazing . Food is very good and expensive but no more than other fine dining establishments in Maui. Good selection of wines and they offer corkage as long as the wine you're bringing is not on the menu. Prompt service . Good pacing of courses.

    We had a lovely dinner and the view was spectacular. I had the sesame crusted ahi and the beet salad. My husband had the herb baked fish with the coconut shrimp add on. My food was excellent well prepared and plated. My husband was not a fan of his fish. It was not very flavorful and was fishy tasting. That being said, we would go back .

    Food and table location was wonderful! My wife had the recommended Parmesan Crusted Mahi Mahi while I had the Herb Roasted Ono. Both fish cooked just right and delicious. Sasha was a very attentive and friendly server. We will go back on our next visit to Maui.
