Frommer's Review
Formerly Who's the Boss restaurant, before that Iao Café, this popular eatery, located on the main street of Wailuku, is now owned by Chef Tom Selman, well known in culinary circles on Maui. He was formerly the chef de cuisine at David Paul's Lahaina Grill and also was corporate chef for the Sansei/Vino restaurants. The restaurant is only open for lunch, but Selman also has added a "pau hana tapa" menu (after-work small dishes) like crispy crab and shrimp gau gee, minihamburgers, and barbecued ribs. Chef Selman calls his food "refined comfort food," with signature menu items that include onion rings with house-made smoky ketchup, roasted Chinese chicken salad, "mother's roast beef sandwich" (served open-faced on a French roll), Southern fried chicken, Maryland-style crab cake, and a roasted-veggie sandwich. The chef will happily customize any menu item for people who prefer low-calorie, low-fat, or low-carbohydrate options. Daily specials range from grilled steak to Asian risotto with shrimp, crab, and veggies.
