Tiffany's Restaurant & Bar — Restaurant in Maui

First time back after the ownership change .. lunch experience. . Odd digital check in that the host did 90% for us and sat us immediately.. was no line.. straight to a familiar booth., nice to see the fishtank clean!.. ordered the crispy chicken , beautiful confit style lacking surface salt ..we used about 1/4 of "sauce" to try n season the chicken.. tasted like a watered down patis,lime ,sugar thing.. would of been better just straight patis and a couple of calamansi.. Steak bites ! God bless! very similar but using shortrib on a pile of onions.. order the pickled onion on the side for the perfect bite .. only thing is most of the pieces were well done.. next ..Caesar salad, flawless! Then truffle fries with crispy red dog slices ,it was ok .. will ask for plain side of fries next time.. the margarita tasted perfect.. like a low sugar style, the black salt rim turned into black puddles from the sweating glass,then on my arm.. So dessert.. we tried the annoying barcode to retrieve dessert list but it was worn off enough to not work.. ditch the barcode chef.. luckily the waitress knew the list and we ordered the peanut butter chocolate cheesecake.... To be informed that's and I quote "only for dinner".. bummed we settled for the matcha cheesecake... Bad idea, I believe they were going for a light japanese style.. but either way dry AF.. the top crumbled like dry cake that been out on the counter for a week.. the roasted strawberry jam and mound of sweet bean paste were tasty by themselves but not enough to save that cake .. two non food issues ... The lighting is God awful.. super white led next to a white painted wall with a old wood laminate tabletop.. giving the classroom/ prison vibes! . .you know they make energy saving LED lights in warm tones now? What ever tone is by the sushi bar..use that ... And go sit on the tiny men's toilet and tell me you want that light switch from the 70s in your place.. nope. .. we all know youknow how to make spicy chilipeppawatah..and volcano spicy noodles.. we'll be back .. it's hard holding an institution up like Tiffany's.. doing good .....

Tiffany’s in Wailuku, Maui, owned and lovingly reimagined by Chef Sheldon Simeon.

Let’s talk cocktails, specifically the STAYCATION. This Edgar Rodriguez-crafted masterpiece is a tropical explosion in a glass. The smoky mezcal mingles beautifully with the sweet tang of lilikoi and creamy coconut. Orange curacao adds a citrusy zip, while lime and cinnamon round out the flavor profile with a touch of warmth and spice. It’s like sipping on a Hawaiian sunset – refreshing, complex, and oh-so-satisfying. We couldn’t resist the allure of Chef Simeon’s cookbook, so we snagged a copy before diving into the quick kine pickled cucumber. These little bites are deceptively simple, yet bursting with tangy, briny goodness. The crunch of the cucumber pairs perfectly with the sweet-and-sour pickling liquid. And then there’s the miso butterfish. Imagine the most melt-in-your-mouth buttery fish, glazed in a sweet and savory miso sauce. Each bite is a burst of umami, perfectly balanced by the delicate flavor of the butterfish. What truly elevates Tiffany’s beyond just a good meal is Chef Simeon’s touch. His passion for local ingredients and Hawaiian flavors shines through in every dish. He takes traditional recipes and gives them a modern twist, creating something both familiar and exciting. You can taste the aloha in every bite. Tiffany’s is a must-visit for any foodie traveling to Maui. And chef’s cookbook is a souvenir you’ll cherish long after your tan fades. P.S. Don’t forget to walk around Wailuku after your meal! The town is full of charming shops and galleries, perfect for souvenir hunting or...

Gonna start off by saying, if you frequented the OG Tiffany's, keep an open mind & don't compare the 2. Although some of the same items remain on the menu, it seems like Chef Sheldon has put his own spin on it.

We started off with the 8 piece mandoo, which came with 2 sauces deep fried & very crisp. The filling was very tasty & I preferred the shoyu type sauce over the other one. The Loco moco patty was good, but could've used a little more flavor & the gravy was more on the mushroom side rather than beef. Hamburger steak was pretty similar, just with the added mushrooms & onions. Went with the large chow fun, since I had seen other reviews commenting on portions. There was good flavor & noodles were a good texture. There did seem to be an abundance of bean sprouts, which is not the biggest fan of.

Like others have mentioned, portions are small, especially if you are getting the individual meals. If you're going to do that, get 2 meals. If not, your best bet is to do the family style options. I'm a small eater & I got the large chow fun & easily finished it myself.

Besides that we enjoyed everything we ordered, however hard not to compare, we did miss the taste of the OG Tiffany's. But I definitely want to come back & try other things. Also note on your bill, there will be a 3%...
