   My wife and I dined at Mala during our annual visit to Maui. It didn’t disappoint- excellent Ahi Bruschetta and Calamari appetizers, followed by a shared entree - the catch of the day prepared pan fried with kabocha squash and carrots and broccolini. John was an attentive and engaging waiter! And if anyone is keeping track of the best Mai Tai on the island - Mala’s is one of the best you’ll find!

   Outstanding for service and wonderful views of the water and turtles! Our ever went above and beyond to make our experience first class. We had a 18 month old with us and everyone had a great time. I'm vegan and they accommodated me with a delicious meal. Highly recommend and ask for window seat in ocean room.

   Dined here for my husband’s birthday. The views were amazing and the food was some of the best we had all week! I had the Mac Daddy cocktail which was fabulous (my favorite so far)!

   We came in for brunch and both had the eggs Benedict (one ahi and the other ham) and also the ahi bruschetta. Amazing food and drinks! Our server, Ken was absolutely fantastic and made it a very pleasant dining experience. Would recommend this place to everyone!

   A wonderful experience once again. We usually make the drive from the south side to Lahaina when we are on Maui. The food, view, and service are always so good, and they make a great Mai Tai.

   Been going to Mala for 10 years, always a favorite, but no more. Do not recommend, we were seated so close to others on both sides you could eat off their table. Prices are up and portions are down. We asked out waiter for time to enjoy our drink, he returned in 2 minutes to take our order. We spend $182 for 2 entrees and 3 drinks, and were out of the restaurant in less than 1 hour. Spending that amount I want to enjoy the setting for more than an hour

   Great place to eat alfresco and enjoy the view. Our entrees were very good, 3 of us had the fresh catch of the day and it well worth the price. This restaurant was charming and all staff friendly. We had a slow start mainly getting our beverages, otherwise the meal was paced well and we enjoyed the evening and sunset.
