    This was our party of five adults and one infant’s second visit to Sansei Kapalua during our one week vacation on Maui. The food was delicious as usual, including the Lobster and shrimp mashed potatoes, lobster and crab ravioli, the beautifully prepared pork chop, and numerous sushi rolls, including the Sansei special, Spicy tuna, and super red dragon rolls. The shrimp dynamite is our favorite appetizer. We had incredibly wonderful service for Megan as she was so easy-going, attentive, friendly, and helpful. She helped make this a special night for all of us. Thank you for a wonderful dinner and evening.

    Sansei Kapalua is always a family favorite. There are numerous menu items to choose from, so everyone enjoyed their meal. Our server was Mike and he was friendly, attentive, and helpful. We never leave this restaurant hungry, and we are planning to return in a few days. Mahalo!
