Highly recommend. Our best meal by far during our 11-day stay on the island. Request waiter Nick (with glasses). Nick is one of the best servers we have experienced in all of our years of travel. He was in control from the time he first approached our table. He was kind. He was confident. He was very knowledgeable about all of our dining options. He made what would be a very good dining experience, a great one. The sashimi tuna was the best we’ve ever had. The ulu mash, spectacular. Filets were on point. Overall, we could not recommend Ulu’s enough. The Hawaiian cake dessert was the finishing touch.

Dined for lunch. Mango BBQ salad and Caesar salad were both wonderful. Definitely make a reservation, it was super busy when we arrived and the couple ahead of us was told there would be no tables available for 30-45 minutes. It is casual during the day; you’re on the beach. I dined here several years ago and enjoyed it! We’re actually headed to Dukes now for breakfast!
