Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Maalaea

The menu is lovely and the service was great. We've always eaten in the back of the restaurant but this time sat in front --which was nice but different. The waitress alerted us that a party of 16 was coming in and the noise level might be more than we would wish. We had a fish appetizer that was really good and my food (green goddess chopped salad and pork belly bao buns) was excellent, but my companions both felt that their entree, while good, wasn't outstanding (macadamia nut crusted mahi mahi). The desserts (lilikoi creme brulee and banana cheesecake were terrific. We love the service and the food and will definitely return.

Drinks were cold as was the Kale Caesar. Chicken Parmesan with pasta was fresh and hot. Child’s butter pasta was delicious. Server is the best here.

We had a great time at Matteo’s. We were early for our reservation and they accommodated us right away. Our server Michael was amazing and our food was perfect. The overall service and atmosphere was spot on. We plan to be back before we finish this vacation!

Super experience as usual. Excellent food, creative menu. Service also excellent. Wine list could be better.

Sunday nights are always fun at Mulligan’s! The band is great, and there is dancing and good vibes all around. We are fortunate to have such a great venue to be able to sit outside on the patio and watch the sunset while surrounded by great music and good people is a rare thing. The shepherds pie and bangers and mash are always a hit, and my son raves about the chicken sandwich. Highly recommend this for lace. Aloha!
