Best Date Night Restaurants in Paia

We experienced the chefs table under chef Donovan and it was phenomenal! They gave us wagyu straight from Japan as a surprise, plenty of wine, and a variety of different fish and meats that were excellent! We really enjoyed our experience!

We were here a couple of weeks ago and came back 2 nights in a row for more great dinners. Excellent service (Angela, Jerry, Daniel) and food, 2 nights in a row. We live on Maui and having a great staycation at Four Seasons Wailea. Hostesses Rachel and Abeer helpful and friendly. Manager Brianna delightful. We loved everything, not a single complaint. Great olive caponata amuse bouche/starter. The Festa menu is an excellent opportunity to try a variety of dishes. Calamari Fritti, Insalata Tricolore, Caprese Invernale, Pastas (with clams/Vongole; Tagliatelle Bolognese); Wagyu Bistecca with spuma, oyster mushrooms brocollini, smoked ricotta carrots. Excellent creative lemon yuzu dessert reminded us pleasantly of our many trips to Capri and the Amalfi Coast.

My experience at Honu was perfection. From the moment we arrived, the staff, particularly Millie our waiter and Pam, our sommelier, made us feel incredibly special. They were attentive and genuinely engaged in our dining experience. The food was nothing short of amazing; each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, the cocktail to start the evening was fantastic!! The combination of outstanding service and exquisite cuisine solidified Honu as a must-visit destination for a world class experience on Maui!

We had such a nice anniversary dinner last night! We live on Maui and this was a spot yet to try! Our table was beautiful, full ocean view reflecting off the pond surrounding the restaurant. We loved our little loveseat table, and the food was excellent. We loved the crab cake, the venison lumpia, the ube rolls with lilikoi butter in particular and the banana crème and malasada dessert is a must try too! And we really appreciated the Kamaaina discount. Our server was very attentive too! We will be back.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Plantation, and it was an experience worth sharing. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. The food was outstanding—thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. Each dish reflected a clear dedication to quality and detail, making every bite memorable. The setting was equally impressive. With a stunning view that added to the ambiance, it provided the perfect backdrop for a quiet, relaxing dinner. It’s rare to find a place where you can enjoy such tranquility while savoring great food. The service was excellent as well. The staff was attentive, friendly, and professional without being intrusive, which truly elevated the evening. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience. If you’re looking for a spot with fantastic food, impeccable service, and a serene atmosphere, The Plantation is a must-visit.
