Lahaina Grill, Maui Restaurant Review

This place fills up fast, so you need to make reservations ahead of time or have to sit at the bar.
Ko Restaurant Review, Wailea, Maui
Posted on June 9, 2014Why did we dine here? – We were staying at the Fairmont on Maui, so it was natural to eat at restaurant Ko. We had originally sought to eat elsewhere, but jet lag make
it far easier to stay put. A beautiful room, tropical sea breeze flowing, a view open to the pool with live modern Jazz playing.
