Roy’s is set on the Ka’anapali golf course. The inside of the restaurant leaves a little to be desired. It’s very basic. Some of the other reviews state it being bright and louder, which I would say is accurate. Feels like a slightly upscale clubhouse restaurant.

That being said, everyone that helped us that evening were very nice and accommodating. They made you feel like you were in a fancy restaurant. Our server, Christina, was fantastic.

The food, including the appetizers and main course, were delicious. Our table enjoyed the calamari, bao buns and beet salad to start. Then we had the butterfish, macadamia crusted catch, which was Mahi, tiger shrimp, ribeye and fish/shrimp duo. We all enjoyed our meals.

As with any of the other “elevated” restaurants on the island, you will want to make a reservation.

Food, ambience, and service were all a solid four out of five. We started with the Brussels sprouts and Szechuan ribs—both were very good and much larger portions than expected. Would definitely order both again.
For mains, we had the butterfish and the grilled catch of the day with shrimp. The butterfish was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, though the overall presentation was more of a four than a five. The grilled catch was fine, but not especially memorable.
The chocolate ganache cake was excellent, though we were disappointed that decaf espresso wasn’t available. We’d return, but next time would likely sit at the bar for drinks and appetizers.

We had lunch here this week, and based on the many positive reviews we had heard, we arrived with high expectations and were looking forward to an enjoyable dining experience. The ambiance was wonderful, with a pleasant view overlooking the golf course, and the service was excellent. Our servers were attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout our visit.

I ordered the stir-fried tofu with vegetables and rice. While the presentation of the dish was very appealing, I unfortunately found it to be overly salty, which made it difficult to fully enjoy the meal. It left me wondering whether the seasoning had been adjusted or tasted prior to being served.

Overall, while the setting and service were strong positives, the food did not meet our expectations, especially considering the price point. For this reason, it is unlikely that we will return, though we do appreciate the professionalism of the staff and the pleasant atmosphere.

Stopped in without a reservation and were greeted by a courteous hostess. We sat at the bar, and the kitchen was accommodating with a special request for my husband, which was appreciated.

He had the mahi mahi, and I ordered the Blackened Island Ahi—both were well executed and flavorful. The Brussels sprouts and beet salad were also very good. Overall, the food was consistently solid and the experience relaxed and professional.

A reliable choice in Kaanapali, and we would return

I grew up celebrating special occasions at Roy’s Kaanapali, so we booked a dinner expecting the same high level of food and service — but sadly, it fell short.

We waited about 20 minutes before a server came to our table, and the wine service was disorganized (we were told there was only one red, then that it was out, and the server seemed unfamiliar with the list). The pork ribs appetizer was fantastic, and the pork shank entrée was excellent, but the $32 Caesar salad was very plain and underwhelming.

Service was inconsistent all night — we had to flag down other staff for drinks, waited for wine after our mains arrived, and our take-out dessert was missing the ice cream.

For a $350 dinner meant to be special, this was very disappointing due to the service. As a longtime supporter, I won’t be returning for some time.I grew up celebrating special occasions at Roy’s Kaanapali, so we booked a dinner expecting the same high level of food and service — but sadly, it fell short.

One star deduction for their website menu prices not matching what they are currently charging. We decided to celebrate our anniversary at Roy’s after a recommendation from a friend and checking their menu online. We had reservations yet it took a few minutes before we were seated. While waiting at the hostess desk we noted that the noise level was quite high and the restaurant had a casual dining ambiance. On looking at the menu I noticed that the prices were higher than what I had seen online just an hour earlier. My dish was $6 more and my husband’s was $7 more. Our fish dishes were delicious. Normally when we eat out we can only eat half our plates and take the rest to eat later. The portion sizes were moderate with nothing left for later. We split a dessert. I know prices on Maui are really high, but we were shocked that our total for just one entrée each and the split dessert, no appetizers, no drinks, came to $175 after taxes and tip. That left a bad taste for the rest of our visit to the island.

We loved our server here. Not only was he great, but the entire staff seemed awesome and made the experience fabulous. We got two different streaks, and the winner was definitely the filet mignon. Both were good and had some pretty good sides. However, I did think it was a little pricey for what we got. The cheesecake was creamy and a perfect blend of ube and vanilla cheesecake.

Christian was our server and he was absolutely phenomenal to say the least. He was so knowledgeable about the area, and the menu itself. He was so personable, and made our experience something to remember as we are traveling. He brought extra sides of sauces we loved without being asked just because he thought we would enjoy it that much more, was super proactive about refills or anything to enhance our experience, and even chatted with us about the island and his activities outside of it. I’ve never had service like this, especially in Maui and will be giving this restaurant and the server as a recommendation in the future. We love it here! The calamari, macadamia nut fish, and catch of the day was amazing. 10/10 experience, ask for Christian!!!!
