Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Wailuku

The 7 of us ended up eating inside (not outside on a nice night) in a large room with no other patrons. Was ok. Food was very good. Service was great.

We always make it a point to eat at Star Noodle when we come to Maui. It never disappoints. We had miso butter fish, short ribs, and the vegetarian version of the Vietnamese crepe. Everything delicious. We were there for dinner after it was dark, so while we couldn’t enjoy the beachfront views, we could hear the waves crashing. So relieved this happening spot survived the fire.

We are huge fans of Merrimans and Monkeypod Kitchen and visit when we are lucky enough to get a resy and the location in Wailea has the best service despite being in a strip mall a little further from the ocean. Our Christmas Eve lunch did not disappoint. We tried some new things on the menu, their market fish was prepare perfectly and we ended the meal with the pies. The mai tais are also the best in Hawaii.

We enjoyed the meal. The hula pie was not as good as usual. The cookie crust was very thin and the hot fudge was considerably less.

Awesome food and beer even the Swiss “Schnapps” was a delight.
