Sansei's has been around in Kihei for over 7 years now and I've always make it a point when I have company in from the mainland to stop by and have some mouth-watering food and drink. The runaway hits are the Panko Crusted Ahi Sashimi, Rock Shrimp Dynamite, Mango Salad Crab Roll, Yaki Maki Roll, Miso Butterfish, and for dessert... more

I don't consider myself a sushi snob, but living in California does make you spoiled when it comes to fresh fish. I had read good reviews about Sansei and decided to check it out. I arrived early to get the 25% off deal. No problem getting in and we were greeted immediately. I mentioned that it was a special occasion... more

We went there in a Saturday evening around 8:30pm, and waited for about 40 minutes to get two seats at the Sushi Bar. The staff were friendly and attentative, and it was fun to order directly from the sushi chef behind the bar. We are from Vancouver, BC, a place not lacking good Japenese food, but we were positively surprized... more

We went to Sansei (in Kihei - I believe there's other locations too) for our last dinner on Maui. Although we didn't sit at the sushi bar (we made reservations and they placed us at a table), everything we ordered was sushi. Everything we tried was delicious, both signature items and more familiar rolls. It was fun to try some... more

First review ever on TripAdvisor. Went to Sansei during my recent trip to Maui early this month b/c I had heard great reviews about the restaurant. We decided to go on Monday as Sansei has a special on Sunday & Monday. If you get seated and order from 5-6pm, everything is 50% off which is a great value. We fed... more

We went to Sansei and were happy that we did. First, we liked that they had a good selection of sake served cold. Second, they had a pretty good variety of sushi rolls. We ordered a sushi combo plate and added a couple of rolls, as well as miso soup. Everything was good. Sushi is always expensive, so it was... more

They skimp on everything... including service. The lady on the phone that took our order was extremely snotty. We almost decided to not eat there... but it was the closest place that would do take out sushi. The california rolls were great... the butter fish was nasty. Very fishy tasting. more

Fantastic

My fiancee and I had one of the best meals of our lives here. The food was simply incredible. Please, please, please, have the tasting menu for two. It consists of their "best hits" and it is just a culinary delight. more
