You will not find a friendlier bar on Maui, especially when the locals come in from work, about 2:30 til 5 or 6PM.

I live upcountry and... more

We ate the best beef tacos that we’ve ever had. The margarita, rice & beans were tasty, too. The atmosphere was casual and the staff was very hospitable. With the delicious food, generous... more

We thought this was just overpriced mediocre Mexican food. After two days of being sick, we wanted to torch the place. more
