Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Lahaina

Service was excellent, and the food was excellent. You can choose a number of plates to share depending on how hungry you are and what your budget is. The vibe is trendy and upscale. The pork steamed buns and the "bacon and eggs" was amazing. I personally didn't care for the Lahaina Fried Soup - the Fatt Chow Fun noodles were so thick they were more like dumplings, which I'm not a fan of. But we still really enjoyed our evening here. Reservations are a must.

We have been visitors to Maui for years, but this was our first visit to Mala Ocean Tavern. We didn't know what we were missing! We were seated promptly on the 'lanai' overlooking the ocean. The sun was bright and the waves were breaking just beyond the railing (hence, "not quiet"). We had an appetizer of coconut shrimp, which was delicious with the aioli dip. We ordered a glass of pinot noir with dinner. My Valentine ordered roasted pork shank which was the best she had eaten in a long time! Plus, it was a massive piece of meat and has served for a couple of additional meals. I was a bit more adventuresome and ordered the 1.5 lb whole opakapaka on a bed of Molokai mashed sweet potato and vegetables. It was exquisite! My 'speed-eating' was also slowed down to be sure I avoided any small bones There was plenty of food there to satisfy my appetite, but it was so delicious I cleaned it to the bone! Unfortunately, we were so full that we weren't able to sample dessert, so that will have to wait for another time. Bottom line is this was the best meal in a great location that we have had on Maui in years. We will definitely be back - Mala Ocean Tavern moves to the top of our list!

We had a wonderful experience with a Valentine’s Day lunch at Monkeypod. My husband got the Mahi sandwich and I got the fish tacos. Both were delicious! We loved our server but didn’t get his name. Always have a great experience here.

Oh my!!!! Take the time to dine at Honu. We made early dinner reservations, but anytime will be lovely. We started with a Bees Knees cocktail along with the octopus starter. Both were delicious. Our dinner was a special: monchong over basil risotto; divine!!!! We finished up with dessert that was macarons along with a glass of wine. Jordan, our server, was friendly, knowledgeable and lovely. Service by the whole staff, including the manager, was awesome. The view was icing on the cake with full ocean and swimming Honu’s. What else could you possibly want? Highly recommend!

Happy hour specials are a good choice. We love the fish tacos and margaritas. We've enjoyed the weekly Supper Club dinners as the chef widens our palate experiences. Actually, Coco Deck is our favorite place to dine. Go there - it's so good.
