Meh. It’s there, but there could be sooo much more!

Maui lacks fantastic, lip-smacking Chinese restaurants. By all rights we should have plenty: Chinese immigrants helped build the island’s infrastructure. But for some tragic reason, Oahu got the lion’s share of dim sum while we were denied. That said, if you’re craving Chinese, Dragon Dragon will do the trick. Service is no-nonsense and the waiters […]

Spicy, homemade Sicilian classics plus many daily specials are served at moderate prices in this teensy strip mall storefront. There’s no gentle way of stating this: the walls are in dire need of a scrub. We’d be hesitant to eat here if we didn’t have an unobstructed view of the kitchen, which in contrast looks […]

Nothing shoos away a threatening cold better than a flavorful bowl of pho — Vietnam’s answer to mom’s chicken soup. Whether it’s piled with chicken, seafood, or slices of rare beef simmering in near-boiling broth, Ba-Le’s pho is rich and unctuous, the noodles wide and slippery. The kitchen doesn’t skimp on the fresh basil, bean […]

This is a small restaurant with crowded tables and a forgettable atmosphere. The food is inconsistent in preparation, generally bland, and even at its best not nearly as good as Thailand Cuisine or even Dragon Dragon a few blocks away.
