Mala Ocean Tavern offers a lovely setting with terrific service. While the restaurant can be noisy and crowded, the ambiance of the crashing waves and live piano music adds to the experience. The menu features well-presented dishes, including a pricey but delicious fish special. Sitting outside by the water provides a unique dining experience, with dishes like bruschetta, poisson cru, and coconut shrimp standing out as particularly delicious options. Recent visitors have praised the quality of the food, especially the catch of the day and seared ahi, describing them as amazing and some of the best they’ve had in years. The Mahi Mahi fish and chips is also a favorite, with some guests calling it their new favorite. The restaurant is a good place to enjoy a memorable meal, whether celebrating a last night on Maui or after a fishing trip. The staff, including waiters like Rich and Jennifer, are highly recommended for their excellent service.
