Hawaii’s first and only Relais & Châteaux restaurant, The Restaurant at Hotel Wailea offers a 'culinary casual' experience with creative island-to-table cuisine. Menus are created around what is readily available from Maui’s farms and fisherman ensuring that each dish is prepared using only the finest local, seasonal and artisanal products; including those grown in the restaurant’s own orchard.

From its perch on the hillside above South Maui's Wailea resort area, the restaurant offers sweeping panoramic ocean views from the upper lanai and intimate dining under the stars in the garden. Voted one of OpenTable's Top 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in the US, and Top 10 Restaurants in Hawaii.

    My wife and I are unabashed foodies. We have dined all over the world. Our dinner last night was delicious. Expertly prepared with the freshest ingredients. Finest meal we have had on Maui. Highly recommended.

    While the service was very responsive, the food was over-priced, under-portioned, and mediocre in quality. It’s unfortunate, because nothing bodes well for the future sustainability of this restaurant. A price-fixed menu at $150 per person, for a three-course meal of over-priced, very small portions, of very limited choices on the menu makes this dinner option unmemorable at best, and regrettable at worst. The appetizers were so small in portion-size that they are not worth noting. As for the main dish, our lamb was not as tender as we expected it to be and our fish was overcooked. And as for desserts, given the price of the meal, we expected awe-inspiring after-meal delectables, and nothing could be further from the truth. So, unfortunately, this meal was the lowest point of our trip to Maui. Hopefully, “The Restaurant” will consider reviews such as this and make viable changes, for the longevity of the existence of this business, and as the anchor restaurant of the beautiful Hotel Wailea.

    Always amazing, a must on any trip to Maui. Food and services are outstanding, and they are great for Gluten-Free, they focus just as much on the GF customer and someone who doesn’t have any dietary restrictions.

    What a beautiful hotel! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the bar. We mistakenly made reservations in the restaurant, which is a set menu (looked amazing), but we were just not that hungry! The waitstaff was very accommodating and immediately set us up at the bar, where we could order à la carte! The bartender was friendly and informative! Ten stars for this place!! :)

    Food was wonderful, we had a three course meal while watching the sunset off of the dining patio. Price is on point for this type of dining experience and menu did not fail to impress. The only thing I would complain about is not getting that last service check in after dessert is served. After a 90 minute experience the mood starts to dwindle having to wait for the check.

    This was our best dinner the entire week on Maui. Don't miss this restaurant! Each of the 3 courses were delicious! I had the Burrata, the lobster and the Pineapple Pavlova. My husbands dishes were just as good. The service was very friendly. Gorgeous views as well!
