Best Casual Restaurants in Haiku

The service was quick, the waiter was very efficient. The menu is a little limited and the prices are a little high but everything in Maui is expensive.

The restaurant was nice and quiet with enjoyable music and wind chimes playing. The Cold soba noodles with sous vide duck breast was delicious. Huge pieces of fish on the nigiri sushi. Soba crème brûlée was amazing.

Wonderful friends gave us a gift card for Makawao Public House as we often raved about the wonderful meals we enjoyed there . As usual it didn’t disappoint. We tried the seared sashimi for the 1 st time and it was to die for . However you need to include a straw with the sauce so you can drink it all up as it is just phenomenal 😜 .Then we ordered the curry vegetables with grilled mahi and the short ribs , again it was cooked to perfection. Everything paired with a glass of Rose champagne and we had the best Valentine dinner . We had an early dinner reservations, so it was quiet , the waitress was lovely ,sweet and personable. We are so happy to have another restaurant choice upcountry. Mahalo

Stumbled upon this on OT and it was meant to be! Perfect sunset view, great live music & delicious sushi. We went on a Wednesday for the sushi night. Servers were very attentive. the bread pudding was also amazing. must go!

If you can't find joy dining in this open-air cafe, there are bigger problems. This beautiful, sunny courtyard just puts a smile on your face. Surrounded by pretty flowers, trees and a light breeze...it is quintessential "Hawaii" at its best. The food was good. Fresh ingredients, made to order. I had the banana bread french toast. It was outstanding. My guests had everything from an omelet to the breakfast wrap. All of it was good. The service left very little to be desired. Food from other tables was being brough to our table, drinks took a very long time, waitstaff seemed preoccupied and confused. We received food at our table several times that wasn't ours. No big deal, it got rerouted just fine...but it all seemed a little clunky. And when you would try to solicit some assistance, it fell on deaf ears. Does the medicore service kick this location out of contention for further breakfast visits? Absolutely not. Go enjoy this beautiful little spot...just bring a little more patience than you usually do.
