Island Fresh Cafe

Reviewed By derekrayment

It is off the busy strip of Paia Town, which gives it a nice, quiet atmosphere. The outdoor seating underneath the overhang is really nice and relaxing. The food itself was good, but not spectacular. I'm happy that we went though because it can be hard to find a quiet place in the area where parking is available.Aloha Derek,Thank you for your visit today!

after driving for hours, and you are a little hungry, this is a must stop to get the very best Fish tacos or my favorite, Kalua Pork tacos. Linda has a way of making them taste simply great. this has been a favorite stopping place for years for us, every time we go to Hana.

Tobi's Shave Ice

Reviewed By B_in_Ottawa

Most people lined up at the Paia Fish Market, but we opted for Tobi's for no other reason than we wanted some shaved ice. After looking at the menu, however, we decided we needed to eat. The shave ice was awesome. Big and reasonably priced, we enjoyed the combination of mango, pineapple, and cherry. The ahi poke was fresh, well seasoned, and yum. The chilli dog - hard to find a good hot dog in New Zealand - was very good. It was loaded with chilli, which was hearty and tasty (could have been spicier). The dog had good snap, too. The staff were outstanding. They were friendly, courteous, and professional. The young woman working the shave ice, in particular, was quite chatty and took an interest in all the customers - young and old.

Kama Hele Cafe

Reviewed By DanielsFamily2009

We needed to stop for a quick bite on the way to Haleakala Crater. After a quick search online, this place came up and we weren’t disappointed - everything was delicious! We parents each had a pork sandwich that included an amazing pineapple slaw, and the kids (5 & 7) had the Monte Cristo and the Breakfast Croissant. While we were waiting, we were able to explore the grounds which included Maui glass blowers and the outer grounds of the distillery. This place is not fancy (it’s a blue food truck after all with small tables to eat at) BUT the taste makes up for it. Don’t miss out if you have the opportunity!!

Cafe Mambo

Reviewed By NoryB_12

Came in at midday and were seated immediately; Emily, our server, brought us menus and water right away. We’re on the Keto diet so we asked Emily for assistance in modifying the fish plate to meet our needs...she was so helpful and accommodating!The food was delicious! Fish was moist and flavorful, and the veggies were yummy. The fish salad was so good—really tasty seasoning on the ahi and seared perfectly.Definitely will be back!

I prefer this place for lunch usually, but took a friend here for dinner. Make a reservation, which is important. We had a nice table in the main entrance area of the room. Servers was friendly. Had their great Paniolo Manhattan to start (Paniolo blended whiskey, carpano sweet vermouth, orange bitters & a luxardo cherry served with a twist of orange). Yum.A must have here is the Maui French Onion soup. Just have it! People talk about Maui onions, well the broth is great as is the smothering of gruyere cheese and croutons. Really good!My friend had the Paniolo ribs as a main course, which were very tasty though we both thought the portion was too small. The side dishes were nice.I had the Aged New York Strip steak as a main course, which was a good portion, but it was not cooked to my liking. It was blue on the bone and I asked for it medium rare to medium - certainly not blue. The meat itself looked good but was actually not very tasty at all, in fact kind of oddly bland, despite hwo lovely it looked on the outside. The sides were better than the steak, especially the mixed mushroom saute... the matchstick fries, though very yummy, were overly salted. All in all a good meal, nice table, always nice to visit there and we will be back, though the steak was a weak point of the meal. Next time I will order something else or return for lunch. Once again, we loved the ONION SOUP! It saved the experience of the meal.AlohaThank you for your review. We thank you for coming in and dining with us and we hope to see you again soon.Mahalo

Mama's Fish House

Reviewed By hunco

We went to dinner and lunch on separate days and we could not have wished for a more enjoyable dinner & lunch. Everything that is served is to[p notch, freshest of fish always, soups( the crab soup is incredible) as are the sample soups you are given. The chocolate pie was superb, just melted in your mouth. The stuffed Mahi Mahi is a treat to behold. The setting is gorgeous, and the flowers displayed throughout are so beautiful. A must DO.
