Enjoyed lunch with a customer while working on Maui. He suggested the Paradise Grill in Kaanapali because one of his workers has a family member working there. The restaurant location is a bit of a landmark because it is at the entrance of the Kaanapali resort area and sits between the 1st and 18th hole of the Kaanapali Golf Course. You can actually sit outside on the decks and watch people tee off on the first hole or come in on the 18th hole. Our waitress said that they sometimes get golf balls hitting the restaurant. Paradise Grill is a bar and restaurant with an extensive menu plus Round Table Pizza. There really is something for everyone on the menu. We decided to eat Pupu style and order a few dishes for our entire table to share. Buffalo Wings ($12.95) were pretty much standard and nothing to rave about. The 10" King Arthur Supreme Pizza ($16.99) was delicious. As I have written on this blog before, there are not many good pizza restaurants in Hawaii. Round Table is among the best. The Beef Siders ($10.95) were filled with Shredded Beef and smothered in BBQ sauce. These were not bad but needed the pickle to set them apart. There were no pickles. The Paradise Parmesan Bites ($9.50) with Pepperoni were good but we were all so full that we did not put a dent in the plate. I enjoyed this place even though it has no air conditioning. Food and service were good and I would love to return again to try a few more dishes.
