Oahu/Maui Restaurants

Hey Ladies - We will be staying on Oahu and Maui during our honeymoon.  Any recommendations for restaurants?  We are planning on Mama's Fish House on Maui and Roy's on Oahu...any thoughts on those or any others?  TIA!!

Re: Oahu/Maui Restaurants

  • We loved Bubba Gump on Maui. I saw some recs awhile back, and though I can't vouch for them, Leilani's was recommended as well as Mama's Fish House. HTH!
  • In Lahaina, check out Mala Tavern. It's before you get into Lahaina on the right side. We went there for lunch. Mama's Fishhouse was our favorite meal!!!
  • We loved mama's....we also really liked I'o and Pacifico in Lahaina....for breakfast Pioneer Inn was awesome!!! There's a mai tai place in Lahina that has a great little patio with a good view.  We also enjoyed Hula Grill and Lelani's. 
  • I know a lot of people like Bubba Gumps, but I hated it, the food was so greasy. Roy's is AMAZING, Sansei is great if you like sushi (both are on both islands), we're visiting Alan Wong's on Oahu, Haili'maile General Store on Maui is another great choice. There's also a Merriman's on Maui too.
  • Thanks guys...we will definitely have to check some of these out!!
  • Oahu:  Ocean House at the Outrigger on the Reef-pretty view, good food, Duke's at the Outrigger Waikiki-loved the chicken quesadillas here, nice and casual, and The Shrimp Shack on the North Shore-cheap, not fancy but soooo yummyMaui:  Mama's Fish House-so worth it!, Leilani's-decent food, nice location, good prices, Hula Grill-basically same as Leilani's, Lahaina Grill-really good food, not on the water though, Pacific'O-pretty location, decent food and prices
  • Check out the Aloha Mixed Plate in Lahaina... it is right next to the Mala tavern.  They had really good and reasonably priced food there.  The teriaki beef was awesome!

  • In Maui, Kimo's in Lahaina and Hula Grill, and Lelaina's in Kaanapali are all part of the same restaurant group - so you can't go wrong with either, we liked Kimo's the best - great view of the ocean.  Mama's Fish House was amazing!  
  • Oahu: for lunch we did Duke's. It was pretty good but food not spectacular. The view and people watching were fabulous, though. Dinner one night was 'Top of Waikiki' a revolving restaurant overlooking Waikiki. It was good and fun. Orchids at the Halekulani was A+++++ (get the 'Seafood Variations Orchids') Maui: Mama's Fish House 2x it was AMAZING. Best Lobster!!! And Pineapple Martini was to die for. Roy's in Kahana A+ We had really, really good Sushi at our resort (Hyatt). 24K Gold Roll with real gold flakes!!!!

  • We just got back from Maui this morning so I am happy to share! Our least favorite restaurant was Bubba Gump - food and service were both pretty disappointing. Leilani's on the Beach had so-so food but a great sunset view over Ka'anapali. We ate lots of Shave Ice and burgers while we were there (which surprised us!) - Ululani's on front street had the best shave ice - it's just past Cheeseburger in Paradise. We also ended up eating at Cool Cat Cafe a few times - it's been voted the best burgers on Maui and we believe it! Nice view of Banyan Tree Park, live music, laidback atmosphere and reasonable prices if you're looking for lunch. The best dinner we had, by far, was at Merriman's in Kapalua. This place was recommended to us by some people on the island and it did NOT disappoint. The views are absolutely incredible, fantastic ambience, great service and totally delicious food. We will definitely go back here. Have a great time- Maui was so much fun and I wish I was still there!

  • Oh I forgot - the Plantation House in Maui. It's north of Kanapali. It's on a golf course... excellent food! :)
  • ditto to Plantation House and Mama's Fish House.  Also, related to food, the Lahaina Luau.  Books forever and a day out, but so awesome and the most delicious food!
