Cane and Taro is D.K. Kodama’s newest restaurant in a renovated, prime Ka’anapali location. His success with Sansei, Vino (closed now) and his Oahu restaurants The Counter and d.k. Steakhouse suggests that this restaurant should be a slam-dunk, but in our experience it’s not up to par with its siblings. Still, the location is hard […]

Kai Wailea’s sister restaurant, Kaiwa in Waikiki, is well-known for unique, creative sushi and Japanese dishes served in an elegant, comfortable restaurant with excellent, traditional service. The service is not always up to par, but the food usually is here in the Shops at Wailea. They’ve narrowed the menu down a bit since they first […]

Lulu’s Lahaina has ample seating at the bar, where you can watch jaw-dropping surf footage or your favorite sports team on big screen TVs. The menu goes beyond basic bar food, but we recommend sticking to appetizers and cocktails. Fancy margaritas are rimmed with Li Hing Mui powder and the mai tai comes to the […]

Beer lovers should absolutely visit Maui Brewing Company Brew Pub, the island’s only microbrewery. The sustainably-minded company crafts excellent, national award-winning brews, and we especially recommend the pale, clean-flavored Bikini Blonde and the dark chocolatey CoCoNut Porter. Ordering a flight of beer lets you sample several at once — including the short-run beers that are […]

The American classics at Moose’s (burgers, sandwiches, steaks, fish) are supplemented with Americanized ethnic foods (fajitas and pastas). The purpose of this restaurant is to feed you large portions of average food while plying you with average drinks and two-for-one coupons for breakfast (look in the tourist magazines) — but also to give you a […]
