Good value for decent food and strong drinks
Moose's is in Lahaina and Kihei, and in Kihei they also run Fred's Mexican. Overall it's fine for what it is. Relatively inexpensive, a fair amount of deep fried stuff, but things like the fried Maui onion rings are worth the stop. Mostly it's a bar, and gets hopping at night, in both locations. Noisy. Good service (attentive especially to drinks) and by the way, they don't skimp on the booze in their drinks -- they know where their patronage comes from. But earlier in the evening it's kid friendly and you can get anything from fine burgers to respectable baked opakapaka (why most places serve fish with bland rice and the frozen vegetable medley you can get from Costco I don't know, however). And they have happy hour, so the drinks can be practically free. ($2 margaritas?)
Would you recommend this to a friend?
Yes

If we'd known, we'd have gone elsewhere
First, the girl on the street said there was no wait, but when we got upstairs, the guy at the door laughed and said, "Good, she's doing her job, but there's actually a 30 minute wait." After the hostess led us to a waiting area, we began to look around and see that many tables were empty. When we asked the hostess if we could be seated at one of the empty tables, she said it wouldn't do any good because the kitchen was backed up. We said we would prefer to go ahead and sit at a table instead of the waiting area, and she snapped, "I can seat you, but don't even think of trying to order for at least 20 more minutes." Alright, I will admit that the food was good, and the service wasn't bad once we got past the wait and the rude hostess, but what an ordeal to get to that point!
