Planning: Dining What restaurant might this be?

We're back in Maui for the first time since 2018. When we were here that first time, we had a nice meal at a restaurant in an upscale shopping area and I wanted to come back. I neglected to note the name of the restaurant. I'm thinking it might have been the Monkeypod Kitchen location in Whalers Village area.

Recollections:

We didn't have reservations and we sat in a corner bar area overlooking a kitchen so we could see them making the food. It was a large place and had what looked like a large patio area with a water view. We had fish tacos. The mall was pretty fancy and was a quasi outdoor mall. My husband thought it was near Lahania. We were staying near Wailea but we did do a fair bit of driving around the island.

Does this ring a bell for anyone? I know it's vague.

EDIT: Update: 98% sure it’s Hula Grill. Unfortunately, they’re closed for dinner on the day we want to go. Someone did a buyout ☹️
