5 /5 Josh Wingard: Definitely agree with other reviewers: this restaurant is a hidden gem that should not be overlooked!
From the moment we entered for a post-graduation lunch, the owner was gracious, responsive, kind and upbeat. We were treated to samples of the different proteins available, our graduate was given a beautiful lei, and we even received dessert samples, all offered at no charge. The dishes were fantastic and highly authentic, taking me back to my last visit to Maui with every bite. My wife stated of the mac salad was "this is my Hawaiian grandmothers recipe exactly!" and was almost in tears from the memories it evoked.
The decor may seem a touch over-the-top to those more accustomed to IKEA-esque minimalist restaurant settings, but we found it charming, whimsical and engaging, stopping just shy of being distracting during mealtime conversations.
All in all, a wonderful meal and experience that was only heightened by the lovely owners efforts to make our special day even better. I highly recommend Da Tiki Hut and plan to return very soon!
