This pizza company uses organic dough, farm to table ingredients like goat cheese from the Maui goat cheese farm, local produce and has a full bar with local beers on tap. They use a mesquite fire burning pizza oven! definitely try the Mopsy it is smoked pork with fresh pineapple, bbq sauce and our local goat cheese. We get takeout from here at least a few times a month :)

This is one of my favorite restaurants on the west side of the island (Lahaina) the food here is incredible and it’s got air-conditioning which is nice ;) There’s a beautiful ocean view as it sits atop the hillside. Definitely get the “malasadas” (local favorite sugar doughnut) that comes with chocolate and caramel dipping sauce I literally dream about it all the time! This restaurant is a fusion of Hawaiian, Asian and Vietnamese style cuisine. Full bar with fresh pressed juice cocktails

Mamas fish house is by far one of the most popular restaurants in all of Hawaii. The ambience of this establishment will absolutely blow you away. It has a Polynesian style decor with gorgeous flower arrangements throughout the restaurant and sits on a Coconut Grove right on the beach. They have the freshest local fish and items like venison all from Maui! If you can’t commit to a full dinner I highly recommend sitting at the bar for an afternoon drink and a couple appetizers. It is a little pricey but it’s worth it if you want to treat yourself;)

Paia Fish Market is a great place to have a casual lunch or dinner. They have large picnic tables that you share with other people, we get takeout from here often. I recommend the Cajun Mahi-mahi burger, fish and chips, or your choice of fish on a beautiful salad with their papaya seed dressing. Beer on tap and wines by the glass.

Pest Poke on island and amazing shave ice with a little ocean view;)

They have fresh local ahi (tuna) here which you can create your own personalized version of poke which is a Hawaiian style dish of raw tuna, white and green onions, soy sauce and additional toppings if you desire. The shaved ice is a must try on a hot Hawaiian day!
