    The view is very nice with outside and inside seating. The staff is very efficient. The food is delicious. The Benedict's are great, especially the Mauka Makai Benedict. The caramelized banana pancakes were huge and yummy. The lox and bagel fresh and delicious. Great value for fantastic breakfast.

    They ask for a extra fee if you use a credit card - with over 200$ for 2 it is very unusual to hava a extra fee of 3% for the payment with card.

    The filet mignon was very good, the baked potato melted in my mouth. Great taste. Good Wine ( Merlot) the Tiramisu for dessert was fantastic However big enough to feed an entire family. Good for sharing in other words. The Pork belly carbonara was tasty , but a bit to much like a soup, and the bacon could have been more crispy. The Black Sun rise espresso Martini was strong, but tasty.

    We love the food but last time we went the service was very very slow. It may have been due to a holiday but they should have been better prepared for that. We decided to try again and both the service and food was outstanding.

    Overlooking the golf course on the Big Island as the sun was setting created a magical night of celebrating our wedding anniversary. The food was fantastic and our service was unmatched. Thank you, Grace, for a memorable dinner. If anyone is staying in the Waikoloa Beach area, there are not a lot of high end restaurants available not connected to a resort. Mauka Bar & Grill is conveniently located and provides an excellent atmosphere for a quality meal.
