11/24/2011-Went to McDonald's since many restaurants were closed for the Thanksgiving holiday. These guys were open 'til 7pm that evening. Ordered a Big Mac and fries at the Drive-Thru. Made the mistake of ordering the large size. The fries were HUGE. Also, they didn't give us any ketchup for our fries. Was bummed about that. Overall, a typical McD's.
How awesome is this? I'm the first person to review the McDonald's in Kahului, Maui. My family moved to Maui in 1968 and I remember hamburgers being 25 cents when Maui basically had two fast food restaurants on the whole island . . . McDonalds and Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Thank you McDonald's for all those years of happiness . . . from seeing me transition from hamburgers to cheeseburgers and even growing up to big kid level with my first Big Mac.
You saved my undeveloped tastebuds from poi and squid and prevented that little white kid from starving to death. Here's to you McDonald's -- I raise my glass to you old friend.
Aloha to you and a big hang loose to the hamburglar and grimace
I'm not 100% sure this is the exact location of the McD's that we've been to many times - all I know is we stopped there on our way to our hotel from the airport b/c we were starving...and although I eat McD's only about once a year, it was my only immediate alternative to chewing my arm off.
Holy COW. (no pun actually intended...) Best McDonald's cheeseburger ever!! But, I was ravenous, so I took the experience w/ a grain of salt (& ketchup). .....on the way back to the airport, we decided to try it again - see if lightning would strike twice - no way McDonald's could end up being one of our favorite meals of the trip! 2nd time: YUM! The bread was perfect - the meat & cheese so juicy & flavorful. It was downright weird.
2nd trip to the island - stuck with our new tradition & pulled over for some cheeseburgers. DING DING DING!!! They blew us away again.
And again on the way back to the airport.
This is now my 3rd trip to Maui - leaving this Friday...& I'm proud to admit that I'm looking SO forward to McDonalds.
