Best Restaurants for Business Meals in Kapalua

Merriman’s has never let us down. We had meatless entrees and we both ate every bite. B ordered pasta from the Starters/Apps menu and I had a mushroom pot pie special. I struggle finding words to adequately describe the flavors, textures, and beauty of the pot pie. A blend of mushrooms and each flavor stood out. The crust was brilliant; absolutely perfect. The dough was stretched over a cast iron pie plate and it had risen probably 4” over the mushrooms inside. And the pastry was delicious. Honestly, a top 5 dining experience of a lifetime of fine food. But salads, yes. Off of the menu, but perfect. Generous portion of very fresh everything. I had the blue cheese crumbles on mine and B went without dairy. Mango, avocado, tomato, greens dressed with subtle citrus dressing. Perfect.

I recently dined at Son’z restaurant and while there were some enjoyable moments, there were also some areas that could be improved. When we ordered the red wine, it was served in a chilled glass, which was unexpected. Usually, red wine is served in a temperature controlled glass to enhance its flavor, so this presentation was a little disappointing. When we raised this issue with our server, he was initially a little frustrated. However, he later acknowledged our point and became more welcoming. During our meal, he made a point to check in on us, asking how the food was and if we needed anything else, which made us feel more valued as guests. Despite the initial hiccups, we still enjoyed our meal and the overall ambience. In the end, we decided to leave a tip of over 40% to show our appreciation, which made him very happy. It was a great way to end our dining experience. Overall, I appreciated the experience but hope they will consider tweaking their wine service in the future.

Always a lovely experience at The Plantation House! My husband and I had a delicious brunch the morning after Christmas. The dining room overlooks the golf course and ocean with beautiful views and quiet ambiance. The food and service are always top-notch. It was fun to see them setting up the course for the Sentry PGA Tour starting on January 2nd. Treat yourself for a special or regular occasion. You won’t be disappointed!

It was an Amazing experience where food and staff on Christmas Day were priceless

Honu is one of the best places on Maui. We've been coming here for decades and we are never disappointed. The food, service and location are exquisite. Hands down a good value for money for a charming dinner with close friends and family. Live Aloha!
