Restaurants near Oceanfront Maui Sands Unit #5A

I’ve been to Mala many times tho usually for dinner. My most memorable time was before the Lahaina fire when we had sunset pupus and dinner, watched the sunrise and the moonrise along with all the charm of Lahaina boats, surfers, and fishing vessels. Thank goodness Mala is still here and remains a treasured piece of our beloved Lahaina and Front Street. Brunch did not disappoint! Service was impeccable with even the manager stopping by our table to say hello. My friends visiting from Portland for their 60th Anniversary were charmed. Mahalo, Mala!

We ordered the Miso Butterfish, Grilled Octopus, Ahi Avo (avocado), Eggplant, Pork Buns. The first four were out of this world! The pork buns were good too. Our server was really wonderful but I can’t remember her name :(. We ordered some regular Saimin and Malasadas to go. Couldn’t wait and ate two of the yummy malasadas on the way home. This is the best food we’ve had since we landed in Hawaii a week ago! Definitely need a reservation but the tables are spaced nicely and love the open air. They did a really nice job with the ambience!

A lovely view, delicious dinner and attentive waiter. We both chose a different fresh fish selection that we enjoyed. I like my fish on the rare side so it was a little more done than I like but I had not mentioned my preference when ordering. We shared the Hula Pie dessert which was yummy!

The hula Grill was a beautiful tropical setting for dinner and we thoroughly enjoyed the view and the food was excellent. Service was friendly and prompt. We enjoyed the free hula pie, since we were staying at the Westin. We then wandered over to the bar and enjoyed the rest of the sunset there. Highly recommend. !

This is our 4th time eating breakfast at Dukes. The Ali'i Bloody Mary was great, and my Kama'eina omelet with Portuguese sausage, and more was delicious. My wife enjoyed her macadamia nut pancakes. The view of the ocean was great, and our server was attentive but not overbearing.
