Amazing experience! Excellent service. The waitstaff are all so kind and helpful. They gave us a notice that they were very busy, which was nice to give us a heads up. We thought food and drinks came out at a reasonable pace. It was windy for lunch service so we went under their private event area. Management and multiple team members checked in on us. We had a great time! The Wild Mushroom Farmbread and the Burger was a table favorite. My partner loved their Kula Tai, I had a Flight 4051 with their FY gin and it was so delicious. Will be returning!

Great little restaurant in Makawao. I army dinner right when they opened. Our server was great. Very attentive and friendly. We ordered several happy hour dishes and entrees. Started with buffalo wings, had the smash burger with truffle fries, wedge salad, truffle Mac and cheese, Kanaka stew and Fish and chips. Only disappointing thing was their malt vinegar too was missing and I didn’t notice it until I poured a ton of it on my fish 👎🏼. I would recommend a Hispanic you are in the area though.
