We had lunch here and loved the coconut prawns! The portions are huge and the prices are very reasonable!

Being from San Francisco, I have had my share of great restaurants at lower cost. AMP is OK, but not worth the hype in the travel guides. The portions were on the smaller side and could have used more flavor, but this is Maui - so it wasn't too bad for the price.

But we had some great shaved ice from the place directly across the street in the Lahaina Cannery Mall!

This place is great! Very casual, only-outdoors eating, cheap and delicious--where else can you eat for under $4??? Their shoyu chicken is the best chicken I've ever had, and I really liked the black bean vegetable and mahi mahi stir fry. It's simple and done well. If you're looking for a schmancy place with impeccable service, this isn't the place (go to David Paul's Lahaina Grill--it's fabulous)--but if you want to escape the high prices of Front Street and watch the sunset as you eat a really satisfying meal, this is the place for you. My boyfriend and I had two entrees and a salad, and the bill (including tax AND tip) came out to $18. I just wish we had one of these in Palo Alto.

We went to Alaho Mtixed Plate after reading rave reviews in Frommers and other publications. Boy were we disappointed. To start with the place is dirty. My husband had to scrub off a filthy high chair for my little girl while the waiter just stood there watching. The waitress was snappy , unattentive and rude. My husband was horrified when he over-heard a converstaion and realized that she "snuck on a 20% tip to a 9 person party without mentioning it to them"! The only thing remotely good was the $2.00 Mai Tai Cocktail. The food was greasy, bland and gross. My husband and I have traveled all over the world and love to try the "local cuisine" but I'd have a hard time feeding this food to my dog. Go Somewhere Else!! Don't waste your time!
