| - As a local Hawaii born and raised person, to find a Hawaii (Maui) place in Arizona is cool.
The atmosphere reminds me of Hawaii. Surfboards, tv with surf, fishes and photos on the wall that reminds me of Hawaii. The cashier says "aloha" just to greet customers with the Hawaiian flare.
The staff Jesse, Raechel, as well as the server was very friendly. The hospitality felt like the "aloha spirit" back home, which people like to talk, get to know you, happy and smiling all the time in order to make people feel welcomed.
The food was amazing (photos uploaded). In Hawaii, we do family style so I got to try four different dishes.
Ordered the steak salad (~$13), fish tacos (~$11), coconut shrimp and chips (~$12) and "local style" (fish was Ono) over rice (~$11). Prices are very reasonable and definitely a great price for the quality and quantity.
The coconut shrimp with the Thai chili sauce was absolutely delicious which I could definitely enjoy as a meal or appetizer. The Thai chili sauce enhances the coconut shrimp and the chip (fries) tastes amazing. You can dip the chip in the Thai chili sauce.
The steak salad was very delicious too. The steak was great (cooked medium-well) that was chopped into cubes with a large amount of greens.
The fish tacos were really good and they gave Thai chili sauce so it went in the tacos. Zagat gave the fish tacos the "perfect fish taco," which I will agree. It had grilled Ono and Mahi Mahi with organic tomato salsa, cheese, house made coleslaw and mango salsa.
The Ono (fish) local style over rice was greatly cooked grilled and delicious. Ono in Hawaiian also means delicious. The tartar sauce was very good and also recommend the chips be dipped in the tartar sauce.
The Thai chili sauce can be used for dressing for the salad which my friend did which also enhanced the salad.
Definitely would go back for the great food, atmosphere, staff and to feel like you are in Hawaii.
