30 Best American Restaurants near Wailea

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

“We had such a wonderful experience at Botero! Renato and Jaclyn were fantastic—friendly, attentive, and incredibly welcoming. They took great care of us and made our time there even more enjoyable. Excellent service and a beautiful atmosphere. Thank you, Renato and Jaclyn!“

“We had a great meal at this restaurant which we had booked for 6:30 to get a dinner accompanied by lovely views of the sunset. The Huli Huli chicken, fish and pasta dishes were commendable and our waitress ( Rochelle ) was pleasant and friendly. Our only complaint was in our table which was blinding two of our party due to the strength of the sun. We understand that we went as sunset but as this is the time period that food is served listed on the menu, we would’ve assumed that our inconvenience would’ve been dealt with with more proficiency. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in the wailea area but please make sure you get a table a little in the shade so you aren’t put off by the sun.“

“This was our first time dining here. The food was delicius, service top notch, and the ambiance in the restaurant was incredible. Gorgeous ocean views!“

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

“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.“

“Good place to grab a bite, right on the beach. Cocktails were good (but $$$). We enjoyed the dumplings appetizer, kalua pork sandwich and chicken tuna rolls. French fries were good! If you like chocolate, get the lava cake for dessert. 😋“

“Very entertaining! Food and drinks were amazing. They rescheduled our group 3 times because of the weather. They were kind and accommodating. Loved how they explained each dance. Totally breathtaking.“

“What a beautiful hotel! I landed in Maui and had reservations for a different hotel. when I arrived the accommodations were terrible so I canceled that hotel and literally had no place to stay for 8 days! I went to the internet and found Maui Coast Hotel. Thankfully, they had just opened their new tower...and had a BEAUTIFUL 😍 ROOM with an ocean view available! The amenities were simply amazing and the staff was absoutely wonderful. The room..well...it was spectacular! We were the 1st to stay in that room. EVERYTHING WAS BRAND NEW! Beds and linnens were so comfy with extra pillows that were comfy! This property is literally just steps across the street where we had access to the most beautiful beach with the sofest sand and views of the neighboring islands. The food at Kiehi Cafe was great. I would highly recommend their grilled Mahi Mahi tacos and honestly their breakfasts were great too! Just walking distance to several other places including a food truck village! They had live music every night at tge poolside bar! Towels, covers for the lounges, sunscreen and pool toys were available for us to use! At every night they had Great bands at the bar! It was a magical stay. Their service was exceptional. Bikes you can ride with shuttle service 3mi from the hotel if you wanted to do something off property close by. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in Maui and hope to return soon! Thank You Maui Coast Hotel for making our stay wonderful. ❤️.“

“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! 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!“

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

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

“There’s a special on hamburgers on TV right now.
I’ve been thinking about the best hamburger I’ve ever had in my life.
As expected, this hamburger I ate on Maui.
The female staff and the food are both amazing“

“Gutes Frühstück und nettes Personal“

“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!“

“A stop here was the perfect complement to our visit to the aquarium, offering a lovely view alongside outstanding food. I had the catch of the day bowl, which arrived as a generous portion that was wonderfully fresh and expertly prepared. My wife ordered the ahi nachos, which were equally delicious and packed with flavor. Between the great atmosphere and high-quality dishes, we had a fantastic experience overall and would highly recommend stopping by!“

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

“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“

“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.“

“Amazing food, service, ambiance. We had a relaxing cocktail lunch. Their roasted eggplant with ricotta was delicious as was their tonno tonnato. We really liked their drink menu. I highly recommend the Spritz Tropicale or Italian Greyhound. Beautiful views and service (Danielle was friendly and very knowledgeable about everything on the menu). I almost felt like it was the Amalfi Coast sitting there with the food and cocktails. Just a wonderful place and experience.“

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

“Spectacular hotel. One of the best I’ve stayed in. Exemplary service from the minute you arrive to the end. Rooms and grounds super clean.

Highly recommend the club level. The club is a great place to relax and enjoy the view w lots of eat and drink.

Can’t wait to come back. Aloha 🌺“

“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!!!“

“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". :)“

“I want to take a moment and express sincere gratitude to the staff at this cafe, great service, quick and yummy. But specifically Pam who went above and beyond providing me with an amazing spread of fruit and chocolate covered strawberries when my sister called to set it up as a surprise. Not only did she do a great job with the presentation but check on me when I came to the cafe for breakfast to be sure everything was alright and continued to greet me like family as did the other staff. Unfortunately I can’t remember the other names, but Pam was awesome.“
