50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Wailea Makena

“Outstanding food and service!! Highly recommend ❤️“

“Overall the experience was great. It's hard to beat the view and the service was top notch. There was a ton of hype around the food and a few dishes were tasty but our main entree fell flat. Our favorite dishes were the red buttered crab and the waygu hangar steak. I could swim in the red buttered crab. The Maui fish of the day was dry and the octopus dish was a bit disappointing. The sauce was so sour. It was a lemon vinaigrette but it had a few too many squeezes of lemon. The additional greenery is not necessary and takes away from the octopus. The main entree was overcooked. Overall, we really did enjoy our experience. The ambiance, view and service made it!“

“This place was too notch! The pizza was superb and delicious! Our waiter Big Josh was really friendly, funny and welcoming! He even gave us a list of his local favorite places to see:) We’ll be back!“

“Amazing beers and delicious food! M.A.C.K. Daddy ftw!! and Ahi nachos...yum“

“We had an amazing time at this restaurant celebrating our engagement. The food was so good, we especially loved the octopus and we both really enjoyed our entrees we had the scallops and mahi mahi. I also want to point out that our service was absolutely top notch! Simona was our waitress for the evening, and she was so friendly, sweet, and personable, that it made the experience a 10/10. She made sure to congratulate us multiple times and make the night feel so special for us- definitely recommend sitting in her section if she is working.“

“great service nice atmosphere“

“When visiting Maui don’t miss Paia, and when visiting Paia don’t miss Choice Health Bar. If light and delicious is your thing than you will be thrilled when you discover this place. Amazing owners and staff makes this a restaurant you don’t want to miss.“

“One of the best dinners we had in Maui!“

“if youre in Maui & looking for FRESH fish, look no further. this place is th real deal. no need to look any further. 1000/10.“

“I've been eating sushi for many years and is the best I've ever found. It is so fresh and beyond excellent. The service is great and the chef will make whatever special requests you want. The Hamachi sashimi is amazing and the soft shell hand roll is perfect. My family and I come here again and again. Don't miss it!“

“Delicious bimbimbap. Very fresh!“

“Food so delicious everyone friendly ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“Great food, fantastic atmosphere, fabulous staff“

“Great food and great staff!“

“Wow. This was a highlight, but we almost didn’t stop because it was a little confusing. Tastings offered on the hour (we didn’t have reservations) but we were able to get in. A little weird; wait in the merch line to buy tasting tickets, then meet in a grassy field on the side of the building. BUT, then the magic happened. Alan was knowledgeable & funny… and I absolutely fell in love with the company’s story (and their spirits!). After the tasting, we hung out for dinner on the lawn with live music and great cocktails! A must-stop. Wonderful.“

“First time there after many years. Super friendly gal out front. Reasonable prices I thought. Food was excellent. We will be back“

“The entire team at the chef‘s table was wonderful. From the selections of the wine to the discussions with all of the chefs, made it a very fun time. The food was great, and the interactions was over the top great. Would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Maui. A wonderful experience.“

“We were recommended this place by a local, and it was worth it. The place was really welcoming. My wife ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, and I ordered a Bistro Burger. I would say that the meat could have used a little more flavors. I really liked the fries that we ordered as side. The servers were really nice, and welcoming even though the place was packed. Overall, It was a nice and I would recommend people to give it a go.“

“Nutcharee’s has been my favorite meal while vacationing in Maui. We come every year and go to Nutcharee’s 2-3 times. So dang good….everything!!“

“Loved that nothing was too sweet the Tiramisu is special and the coffee tasted really good can’t wait to try more things.“

“I dont have any pictures of our meals! Which is a good sign as we ate it so quickly we forgot. 6 people ordered a multitude of meals between tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, and even a hotdog. Everything came out within 7 minutes, and exactly as ordered. They were friendly also! Every person raved about how good the food was.

Don't think twice about getting food here. The other truck beside them was more expensive, and we checked out the ratings before picking. Thankful we did!“

“We went to a local place for lunch that had great reviews and were very disappointed. Came across this amazing food truck and randomly ordered a few things……ended up coming back not even an hour later to order more. Great portions, food was so good! Made to order and so yummy! The wasabi cream sauce is 🤤🤤🤤 Give this truck a try! Best meal on Maui after a week of trying different local spots!“

“We had reservations because it’s highly recommended as it’s a gem of a place and were greeted kindly - hostess asked us if we have even been to Maui Wine and showed us where the restrooms were- we didn’t even ask so I thought that was so kind of her. Every single staff member came to our table asking how everything was and if we needed anything, cleared empty dishes ect. - Explained the types of wine and our food selections for us and we left with some wine and jelly 🥰 It was an amazing experience! The ride there is beautiful as well. Thank you all at Maui Wine 💕“

“Da Kitchen is our first stop when we arrive in Maui and our last stop before heading home. The food is out of this world good, especially the Kalbi noodles. We had the chicken katsu, kalbi noodles, spam musubi, and potato mac salad - all were tasty! The service is great for it being a more casual spot. Highly recommend!“

“I had the most amazing Mahi salad today!!! So good!!! ❤🤙“

“Excellent breakfast sandwich & pizza. highly recommend.“

“the folks are super nice and friendly! the crepe I tried-pineapple was delicious! fresh and flavorful!“

“Before we even had a chance to taste the food the service by the spanish speaking young lady was exceptional. She was very polite, and her warm welcoming energy made us feel very welcomed. She pronounced my partners name correctly (which hardly anyone does) just to add sugar on top. Once our order was ready she hooked it up with the ranch. The aroma radiating from the box was so enticing, and with due regard! These wings are one of the tastiest items we have had to try in our trip here to this beautiful Island. Maui will forever be in our hearts, and Wing Kings Maui along with it.“

“ambiance is a 10/10 and super friendly service but food was not amazing. especially if vegan or vegetarian the prices are absolutely ridiculous for the portion sizes and taste. i for the yaki udon and it was $37 for being undlableful and mid :( they asked if i wanted tofu and added an extra $10 which IS ABSURD (did not know it was extra so that was not cool). overall vibes were immaculate but not worth the price at all i fear. my drink and food came to $86“

“We had our Montana State U FCS Div. 1 National championship party at Diamonds and they knocked it out of the ballpark for us! Holly and the crew at diamonds made great food and drinks in spectacular and accommodating environment. We had over 40 people and they made it work with multiple TV’s and sound. It was a great time! Highly recommend diamonds whether it’s a large group or just a small group needing to watch a specific game.“

“Excellent tasting fresh wraps that are so yummy I can’t recommend them enough. Great coffee as well. Really love the atmosphere and Gina and the staff are absolutely outstanding just super accommodating just lovely. If you’re in the area definitely recommend Thats a Wrap. Absolutely love the local art on display it’s gorgeous. We will be back love Tina and Steve from New Zealand.“

“Great Time! Come early. Make Reservations“

“Best Food truck we’ve been to in Maui Hawaii 🙂!! Trust me we tried a lot. So healthy and delicious flavor love the chicken stir fry! Salad dressing is amazing. In my opinion they have the best Smoothies! Don’t hesitate to stop and try“

“If there were only one restaurant to eat at on Maui, for us it would be this beautiful restaurant set in a gorgeous setting of old Maui (at the Valley end of the foothills of the West Maui mountains), which serves the most incredibly presented and quite exceptionally delicious meals we’ve had, served by some of the best cooks, wait staff and owners we’ve seen anywhere…and we’ve been everywhere🤙🏼 LuckyweliveHawaii🌹indeed!“

“Fantastic experience! The service was warm, friendly, and attentive from the moment we walked in. The pho was absolutely amazing — rich, flavorful broth, fresh ingredients, and perfectly cooked noodles. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite. This is easily one of the best spots for pho, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | A Flavor Explosion in Maui!

If you are looking for an incredible meal, Tajima Ramen is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the experience is top-tier.

The Food
• Carnitas Ramen: This is a total game-changer. The carnitas are tender, juicy, and packed with a deep, savory richness that elevates the entire bowl. It is easily one of the most flavorful fusion dishes I’ve ever had.

• Traditional White Ramen: For those who love the classics, the white ramen is perfection. The broth is creamy, soul-warming, and balanced exactly as a traditional tonkotsu-style base should be.

• Teriyaki Chicken & White Rice: Even the simpler dishes shine here. The teriyaki chicken is perfectly glazed and tender, paired with fluffy, pristine white rice that acts as the perfect canvas for the savory sauce.
The Service

Beyond the kitchen, the service is amazing. The staff is attentive, welcoming, and clearly passionate about the food they serve. They make you feel right at home the second you sit down.“

“Decided to splurge a little and treat myself and family to a nice breakfast in wailea. As locals we have our usual spots but decided to give this place a try since there was a kamaaina special. We weren’t disappointed. I had my fill of smoked salmon, ahi poke, bacon, and eggs benny (all buffet so that was a plus). Kiddos had everything and the wife really enjoyed the atmosphere. Not stuffy, great staff (Venus was our server) and the kamaaina was a plus. Coming back again.“

“Best pizza and salad. Staff is amazing“

“This is a mom and pop restaurant serving breakfast, salads and plates for very affordable prices. The food and setting are not fancy, but you pay about the same or less than for food from the local grocery store. You can get a meal for about 10 to 20 dollars. Very friendly service. A very convenient place for families. We were able to pay with a credit card.“

“Upon arriving to the Fairmont Kea Lani after a long 9 hour flight, we were able to get a quick pizza that we brought up to our room to eat. Stopped in to get ice cream one night. I got the banana bread sundae and my fiancé got the chocolate Oreo shake. Both delicious. The store also had coffee, teas, and typical gift shop items. Everything of course is super expensive but what else would you expect. Overall recommend.“

“staff is amazing food and drinks are 100 percent 😋“

“Super food, excellent service Totally recommend it Again soon“

“My 98 year old Dad and I wanted something new to try...Dad had a crispy ceasar with fresh mahi and I had the BEST hot dog ever. Juicy, cheesy, cooked to perfection. The homemade potato salad was delectable. Service was excellent and friendly. Lovely view, easy access, and 30,000 dollar bills on the walls and ceiling...our new favorite place for a casual, delicious meal and terrific aloha vibe. Not to be missed!“

“What a lovely little restaurant with amazing vegan ramen soup and delicious mochi dessert. We loved it! Beautiful and friendly folks! So enjoyable! Mahalo!“

“Good Food excellent services“

“Great food, great drinks... extremely accommodating bartender 💚💚. Had the best time on our last night in Maui 🤙“

“We had so much fun at this tiki lounge! I was on a mission to try as many Mai Tai’s as I could to find the best one! Pretty sure this was it! And then the bartender brought us out a mini size each of their delicious piña colada’s! It was really a fun place to be. The food was good and the drinks were excellent! The service was amazing as well. A fun place to go!“

“This is a great place to bring a group of people with multiple dietary preferences. The menu is extensive and the food is delicious. The owners have a great sense of style and humor- quirky and fun!“

“Enjoyed our Mexican Maitai on Taco Tuesday. We got there early for happy hour and ordered the food at 4. Thanks to Diego who had a great smile. Fun and good food.“

“I have to admit, I was little hesitant to try this spot inside the swap meet, but boy, am I glad I did.

I had the combo plate with ribs and chicken, and it comes with a side of white rice and corn. I also paid extra to try their kimchi.

Everything was tender and flavorful.“
