    The casual, island ambiance of this restaurant is delightful. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. The six in our party enjoyed a variety of dishes from the special sea bass to fresh salads and local fish. Over all a great evening with good friends and food!

    The yesterday’s soup was ginger carrot and coconut. Outstanding! Ordered another to go so I could have it again. Fish and chips were also excellent - moist fish, crispy fries and ginger infused Cole slaw. We’ve tried different menu items each time we visit and everything was fresh and islands inspired.
    Haliimaile General StoreResponded 1 day ago
    Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you loved the ginger carrot and coconut soup—it's always great when a dish is so good you have to take it home! 😊 The fish and chips are definitely a favorite, and we’re happy to hear you’ve enjoyed exploring different menu items. We'll be sure to pass your compliments along to Dale—he’ll be thrilled to know he made your husband's birthday extra special. Looking forward to welcoming you back for more fresh, island-inspired flavors! 🌺✨ Mahalo!

    We had a lovely evening. Our Waiter Joe was very attentive and friendly. I was entertaining a out of State friend whose request for her last supper on Maui was to return to Haliʻimaile General Store. We 💕LOVE💕 the Ginger Lemongrass Frost cocktail. Also enjoyed the Chocolate Creameux and Pineapple upside down cake (notice how I speak to desert 1st) and the black tiger shrimp and coconut seafood curry. Canʻt wait to bring my sister. Itʻs my 3rd time in 18 days and Iʻm more than OK with that 😋
    Haliimaile General StoreResponded 2 days ago
    Mahalo for your wonderful review! 🌺 We're delighted that you and your friend had a lovely evening with us and that Haliʻimaile General Store was the perfect choice for her last supper on Maui. It’s always a pleasure to hear from our returning guests—three visits in 18 days is the highest compliment! 😊 We're so glad you enjoyed the Ginger Lemongrass Frost, the decadent desserts, and the seafood curry. We can’t wait to welcome you and your sister on your next visit. A hui hou! 💕🍍🍹 Mahalo, again!

    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.

    Great food, good service, beautiful scenery. We sat by the front door and were visited inside by a lizard and a few bugs. It must be hard to keep the place open air on a beautiful day and avoid small visitors.
    Haliimaile General StoreResponded 2 days ago
    It sounds like you had a lovely experience overall! The open-air setting definitely adds to the charm, even if it sometimes comes with a few unexpected guests. Hopefully, they didn’t take away from the delicious food and beautiful scenery! 😊🌿🐠 Mahalo!

    I love coming to this restaurant when we come to Maui. I love the atmosphere, location, staff and food. The drinks are amazing too. I could literally visit it again before the end of our trip for another meal that’s how memorable it is.
