Popular Maui Restaurants

Updated: Feb 9




Everyone always asks about the popular Maui restaurants. Included is a quick list of the popular Maui restaurants to help you decide where to eat on Maui.


I highly recommend making reservations three months in advance as some of these popular Maui restaurants only take reservations. We found eating at popular Maui restaurants at around 4-5pm wasn't as busy and we usually didn't have to wait.

A table full of plates with various seafood dishes on then. There is salad, fish, and wine.

Scroll through the Maui Hawaii restaurant guide below organized by location to pick a delicious choice from the most popular Maui restaurants!
