4 Must-Visit Maui Dining Spots
Maui is an incredible family destination that offers myriad opportunities for families to create treasured
memories to last a lifetime. It's a place where people keep their phones down for fear of missing the details,
where everyone from age 1 to 101 will find something to enjoy and marvel at. In fact, the real trouble many
vacationers encounter is finding time to fit everything they want to do in one vacation. Ensure you get the
most out of the time you have with the following four tips for creating your family trip of a lifetime in Maui:
1. Kō : Perhaps one of the best examples of
what can happen when you mesh Hawaiian regional cuisine with fine dining style. In fact, Executive Chef Tylun
Pang states this is the only such establishment on Maui to offer fine dining entrees inspired by the island's
sugarcane plantation era. Enjoy an unparalleled menu boasting family recipes passed down for generations. Think
of it as local favorites gone fancy. Plus, there's the seating. Relax in a beautiful open-air, pool-side setting
as you feast at Kō.
2. Mama's Fish House : Situated on
the idyllic Kuao Cove on Maui's north shore, Mama's Fish House is perfect for a tranquil meal. Relax and enjoy
an atmosphere that is never rushed, service that is always exemplar, and food that couldn't be fresher. Mama's
Fish House is simply a must when you’re craving delicious Polynesian-style fare. Of course, do note that these
tastes don't come cheap. Mama's Fish House is one of the most expensive restaurants on the island, but well
worth the splurge.
3. Kula Bistro : Kula Bistro is the place to
go when you've got a big party to feed and/or you have a big appetite to satisfy because this unassuming cafe
is known for its massive menu selection and huge servings. Notable menu items include the crab cakes, made
in-house and served with mango aioli sauce, and the slow-roasted prime rib, seasoned and seared with au jus.
Be sure to grab one of the freshly baked goods on your way out (as you’ll be too full to enjoy it then!).
4. Nalu's South Shore Grill : The owners of
Nalu's have dedicated this restaurant to freshness and local flavors. Here, you'll find a menu showcasing
entrees created with fresh, local ingredients sourced from Maui's farms and ranches. You'll feast at custom-made
wooden tables and chairs with food creatively presented on wooden slabs. Whether you visit for breakfast, lunch
or dinner, we're sure you'll be impressed with the offerings. If you are unsure of which item to dine on, let
us recommend the Apple Brie Burger served with the restaurant's homemade truffle chips.
