A stunning bar with an excellent sunset view framed through the window behind the bar. We arrived late at night after our flight and wanted a light snack and a drink for our first night back in Maui.

We ordered sushi and the edamame. The edamame portion is generous—easily enough to share between two, or even four. We ended up eating quite a bit, which worked well since it’s healthy, low-carb, and filling enough that I didn’t feel the need to order edamame again for the rest of the trip. 😎

The space includes smaller seating areas with sofas and tables that feel more like living rooms than a typical bar.

Our waiter was very kind and personable, often squatting down to speak with us and nearby tables. I genuinely admired his flexibility and stamina.

On some evenings, there is live music as well, which adds to the relaxed atmosphere.

Talk about WOW factor! What a view from the bar! Whales everywhere, even had binoculars to view! All the food/sushi was exceptional, and the cocktails were top notch. Well worth a visit, even if not staying at Fairmont.

Best “hidden gem” in Wailea. Food, drinks, atmosphere, and especially the service are incredible. Pilina is probably the best hotel “lobby bar” I have ever been to. There’s an area to sit for more formal dining, but the open views to the Pacific from the bar are unmatched. Couldn’t recommend this spot more. We were able to walk in at peak hours without a reservation which was great. We canceled multiple dinner reservations over our stay to re-visit this spot.

Incredible food and drinks!! We loved this spot. We’re here for our honeymoon and our waiter, Zachery, spotted that we were recently married and sent over a free dessert!!

Amazing views and amazing sushi! Literally some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. We enjoyed the sushi boat experience presented by Chef Mark. Absolutely incredible – beautiful presentation and incredibly fresh fish. If you want the perfect sunset experience on Maui, this is one of the best ones. Service was excellent, too.

Really delicious food, relaxing yet swanky vibe and chill service. We loved everything we ordered and are excited to eat here again!!! Tried a lot of dishes, from sushi to king salmon cooked on a hot stone – did not leave a morsel behind! Keiki menu has lots of tasty options as well.

We had a wonderful experience at Pilina Maui and it was the perfect way to spend our first night out in Maui. The beverages were excellent and the service from Chris was great. He was welcoming, attentive, and had such a relaxed, friendly vibe that immediately made us feel comfortable and on vacation.

Everything about the experience set the tone for a great start to our trip. We recommend stopping by Pilina Maui for great drinks and even better service.

A friend wanted to check out Wailea’s newest bar.

ATMOSPHERE:
They are the Kea Lani’s new open-air lobby bar. I don’t know the details of the past, only that the space used to be meeting rooms. What a better use of space and more so with the view, as sunsets are killer. The vibe is that of a swanky backyard, complete with live music, gazebos with swinging chairs, lounge sofas and a spacious bar top. Smoky aromas from the sushi bar wafted us throughout our evening, but in a good way.

MENU:
Extensive sushi selection, handful of tiny-portioned “dinners”, kid’s menu. Full bar menu including sake and numerous spirits.

BEVERAGE:
Makai – $34.00
This is by far the most expensive single cocktail I’ve had! Citrusy, a bit tart but very smooth and was served in a fancy glass that reminded me of Superman’s Fortress of Solitude. The toppings of furikake (Japanese-style seaweed) and ogo (Hawaiian-style seaweed) were so slight, they were more of a visual effect than anything.

Tropics In Bloom – $24.00
A better value than the Makai, I also liked its fizziness and berry flavor more than the former.

FOOD:
Togarashi Macadamia Nuts & Wasabi Peas
These were included with our drinks. I don’t like wasabi so I didn’t have the peas but the mac nuts were good, similar to a honey roasted flavor & stickiness with a bit of heat.

King Salmon – $36.00 & Marinated Maitake Mushroom – $19.00
These two items are part of their Hot Rock Menu, meaning you’re cooking it yourself on a 900-degree stone that’s brought to the table. The salmon consisted of just four semi-thick slices which wore out the hot stone after cooking on both sides. Not worth the price due to its petite portion. Another hot stone was brought out for the maikate grilling. The half-bunch of mushrooms had a tasty marinade to them and went well with the salmon.

Maui Nui Venison Sliders – $26.00 (2 pcs.)
Served warm on pillowy buns, the patty was moist & savory, with a slight tang and sweetness from the grilled onions.

My spouse and friend also enjoyed the Rainbow, Alii and Lobster Rolls. They came served on a warm marble slab which I found odd as you’d think it’d be cold.

DESSERT:
Sichuan Pepper And Clove Flourless Chocolate Torte – $16.00
Velvety smooth with complimenting flavors of chocolate & orange.

SERVICE:
No host stand was seen so I’m assuming it’s seat yourself.

Chad, the bartender, was awesome. Very friendly, engaging and professional.

TIP:
Kama’aina discount available.

OVERALL:
Gorgeous views, fun vibe, over-priced.

I visited Pilani three times over my past two stays at the Fairmont Kea Lani. The fish quality was excellent. I enjoyed the tuna, kanpachi sashimi and sushi rolls very much. Even better with a bottle of champagne with the amazing ocean view! Mary was exceptional. She remembered our entire conversation from my last visit two months ago including the purpose of my visit and our preference on champagne. I haven’t met a server as professional and genuine for a long time. I’m happy to recommend Pilina with their great quality food, beautiful architectural design and exceptional service!
