28 Best American Restaurants near Wailea

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

“One of the best lobby bars I’ve experienced. A fantastic ambience with friendly bartenders and strong drinks.

Enjoy the absolutely delicious pretzels served with your drinks, and if you’re looking for something heartier the smash burger was so good we ended up coming back two more times in one week just for it“

“We enjoyed drinks and the live music in the evening. We ate dinner twice here. It is a nice place to come when you want to eat lightly. One night, we shared the Chinese dim sum flown in from Oahu and another night we had the ahi tuna.

In the lobby lounge, they filmed some of the dining scenes of HBO's White Lotus Season 1. There was a display case past the restaurant with the fountain to the right heading towards the ballrooms with White Lotus artifacts and information which was fun to see and to read.“

“EAT here! They have a vegan menu and are super accommodating; more importantly the food is (a bit overpriced but) delicious!!

This is honestly the best option I have found for nicer resort dining with a robust vegan/vegetarian friendly menu. They easily beat out most of the others.

The Thai crunch noodles with tofu are awesome - I have come back like three times this vacation just to have them. Somehow it's light (ish) but really flavor-packed and fresh.

They also have vegan chorizo tacos on their lunch menu and the spring rolls with added tofu are fab. Highly recommend for families with mixed dietary needs.“

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

“outside patio has wonderful views and the food was 🤯“

“Some of the best chicken tacos I have ever had in my life! And the staff are super friendly and awesome! Highly recommend!“

“Breakfast menu was limited but food was excellent! Good portions, great fried potatoes and bacon if you get the egg breakfast. Breakfast sandwich is also amazing. Friendly staff. Be aware that if you’re youngish and looking for some night life while staying at the connected Maui Coast Hotel, this probably isn’t it. Clientele was definitely on the older side.“

“Amazing food! There is almost always a line but totally worth the wait.“

“The luau at gilligans was absolutely amazing!! The staff is an amazing group of people, very friendly and inviting, the luau was interactive and at the end we felt like old friends! The food was plentiful and amazing and the drinks were even more so!! Would recommend if you’re looking for a smaller more intimate luau.“

“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.“

“Amazing food! There is almost always a line but totally worth the wait.“

“AMAZING! The food was so delicious and the milkshakes (specifically the adult ones) were excellent. Highly recommend Cool Cat Cafe. We stopped for a late lunch after snorkeling; service was great & quick, and, as stated above, the food was top notch!“

“Our waitress, sugar, made the entire experience. Seriously the sweetest person we may have ever met. We left feeling like she was part of our family!
The $5 mai tais were a steal and you can’t beat the views after spending a family day at the aquarium. 🩷🌺“

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

“Gutes Frühstück und nettes Personal“

“Service was fantastic. Very quick and attentive service. Highly recommended“

“Gorgeous setting, delicious food with great service! Understand it comes with a price, but you probably know that with it being at the Four Seasons. Hostess a little snotty, no reason. She has one of the best jobs on the island, should be thankful“

“Wonderful little restaurant. My husband and I discovered this hidden gem while we were on our honeymoon and came back several times. Their menu is simple yet delicious and the malasadas... oh my. Can't go wrong with this spot. We witnessed several customers coming in just for the malasadas! Customer service is wonderful as the lovely lady who takes your order is very sweet. Definitely worth trying them out!“

“The 50’s diner feel was real! Staff was super accommodating. The Betty Boop art takes you back. Loved the jukebox. Milkshakes were delish! Our burgers did not disappoint! The house sauce gives it that Maui feel!“

“One of my favorite upcountry restaurants. I am always pleasantly surprised by how good the food is here. 🌺“

“We used the swim-up bar to enjoy some cocktails. I wanted to give a shout-out to the lady and man bartenders working on Friday, Dec 12 evening who was really nice, warm and friendly. Sorry I didn't get their names. They kept the snack mix refilled and created a funny, warm atmosphere.“

“Overindulged! The joyful experience of our 36th anniversary dinner will be one that we’ll be chasing over and over again! We were overindulged from the moment we sat down at the table with the most beautiful view, surrounded by soothing live music. The care and concern from each and every staff member was evident, making sure that the best possible bottle of wine for our meal was chosen, that our water glass was never too empty, that each plate delivered was well executed and well presented and explained, when done each time dishes were taken away quickly, the pacing of the meal was well done, just everything and everything! Perfection! And a special note to Sasha- we already noted during our meal service- the finesse and skill you brought to the level of service was just outstanding! Kudos to you and to the team that supports you in making sure that each of your tables gets the attention that they deserve! To say that our anniversary dinner was memorable is truly an understatement! It will be that feeling of being so well taken care of and that every orchestrated element enhanced our celebration will be what brings us back over and over again. We already are making plans to come back and I know we will be coming back over and over again! With our deepest appreciation! …and then the food! Truly the best farm to table experience on Maui! From the amuse buche course(s!) that wet our appetite for more goodies to come. The locally sourced ingredients shined with their freshness and the finesse in which they were presented. Two highlights were the Maui onion soup presented with the perfect amount of cheese and puffed pastry topping- just perfectly seasoned. And then the Haleakala filet mignon, once again perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned and topped with compound butter that was melted at table side with rosemary. (It feels like we are saying perfect too much! But we do mean it!) Then to end the evening celebration with our chocolate lava cake surrounded by white and milk chocolate fondue with banana bread and fresh fruits was simply scrumptious! Chef Junior Ulep, Mahalo for our special night, with our deepest grateful hearts, we appreciate your mana and the joyfulness in which you have chosen to feed us and our fellow patrons at Kula Lodge Restaurant!“

“Absolutely incredible dinner. Best mai tai we had and the tempura pink snapper WOW- life changing! Please make it a regular on the menu!!!“

“Wanted a nice meal at their restaurant & they put us in a tight table. I asked the hostess to please move us as there was a huge plant crowding Jon & almost getting into his face. The hostess retorted sarcastically, "we can move the plant.". How's that for keeping a patron happy 🤣 Tommy Bahama“

“What a fantastic performance Brenton put on with Mulligan's Magic Show! I had heard about this show from another family we met while horseback riding one day on our trip to Maui and we literally altered our Road to Hana day to be back in time for this show... and we were SO GLAD we did! It was the perfect evening and a nice break away from just seeing the beauty of nature. Brenton was funny, engaging, family friendly, and full of energy but he was also SO talented with his magic! I have a 21 and 18 year old and they were so impressed, laughing most of the night. We caught a couple of his tricks on video and posted them and our Facebook friends were in awe too! This show is WELL worth your time and money, and Mulligans offered fantastic dinner options too. Go see the show if you get the chance - you won't regret it! It's truly... well, "magical". :)“

“This place is a optional mostly because of the class you make it so special. Every single morning of my vacation I was greeted with smiles and remembering my name. Maria and Denise were fantastic and always so cheerful, but every single woman that works here is incredible. (I didn’t interact with any men) I was blown away by the service and hospitality. It really made my day worthwhile and it was always a delight, walking in and getting a delicious coffee. The food is amazing and everything top tier!“
