REVIEWS Restaurants & Sweeteries Leilani's DINING Located right on famous Kaanapali Beach, Leilani's offers the perfect vantage point for viewing amazing sunsets framed by the islands of Lanai and Molokai. This place is really two different restaurants in one: the upstairs dining room is an island fish and steak house that serves dinner along with sweeping ocean views. It features a menu of fresh Island fish, seafood, prime rib steaks, and barbecue ribs. The downstairs restaurant, Leilani's Beachside Grill, is more casual. It's open for both lunch and dinner, and is a popular place with both residents and locals alike - the perfect place to enjoy island inspired dishes, an extensive craft beer selection, tropical cocktails and live entertainment. A recent TripAdvisor review states: "Over the last 20 years we have visited both the restaurant and the beachfront grill many times. Always love to sit back and relax and enjoy Maui Tacos good food and socializing. This year we went to the grill twice and had the fish tacos because they were so good. We had great service both times, but the second visit was great because we knew our server from the previous visit and she was outstanding. This is a great place to kick back, relax and enjoy the fact that you are in Maui." And there you have it - Leilani's, a great place to dine on Maui while taking in the ocean view.

Well, at Maui Tacos they have taken the best flavors of Mexico and fused them with the flavors of Aloha to create food that will do the hula on your tongue! With offerings like fish tacos with pineapple salsa and mango chicken salad, they can satiate everyone's appetite! I just love Mexican food when it's hot, fresh, delicious and inexpensive - and Maui Tacos delivers on all those promises. They've really got the Island/Mexican thing going on and their self-serve salsa bar (especially the pineapple salsa) is the bomb! So cruise into any one of their upscale surf shacks and eat your heart out, without draining your wallet.
