For many years, the Kula Lodge has been a favorite for both visitors and Kama'aina alike for delicious cuisine and breathtaking views of Maui. Perched high on the slopes of Haleakala with a 180 degree view of Maui, the Kula Lodge and Restaurant is a comfortable and homey place to relax, especially on your way down from the sunrise or sunset at the crater. It is situated on 4 lovely acres and not only has a stunning botanical garden, it has the only full-service bar and live music in Kula. It's also the only place upcountry with dancing (on Friday and Saturday nights)!

The restaurant seats up to 160 guests, making it ideal for weddings and special events. The Kula Lodge outdoor Garden Terrace features a brick wood-burning pizza oven and an open view of south, central and the Maui mountains. The sunset views are absolutely phenomenal!

Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 5-7 have live entertainment; Friday & Saturday evenings from 5-8pm have live entertainment AND dancing!

    What a nice and pretty place! I really enjoyed having breakfast here. My only disappointment is that outdoor seating was not available when I came for breakfast. I specifically wanted outdoor seating and made reservation that way. If it was not available, advanced notice would be greatly appreciated. Other than that, the food was good for the price but not the best I’ve had. This would’ve been a five star experience if we could sit outside.

    Setting was fantastic. Food was delicious. Great variety on the menu. Unfortunately we had multiple service issues. One drink never arrived and we had to remind the server to bring it. Two meals arrived WAY before the third so we were totally finished eating our entrées before our daughter’s pizza arrived (20-30 mins later). Plus, no refills offered (ice tea & lemonade) during our meal. Disappointing service this time but we’ve received great service in the past so we’ll probably try again in the future.

    I’m so happy I finally got a chance to dine at Kula Lodge after hearing about it for many years, and it did not disappoint! Our pizzas and drinks were delicious. The views and gardens are like no other place on Maui—spectacular!

    We had breakfast at Kula Lodge. Great atmosphere and service. Beth was our server and provided excellent care. We so enjoyed the view and even captured a double rainbow while eating. Definitely recommend stopping in when on Maui. Our only regret was not having time in our schedule to dine there for lunch and try out the pizza.

    Server forgot to bring the handmade chips as our appetizer. Pizza choices are set under the new management. You can’t change items on any of the pizzas. Hawaiian pizza not available so had to settle. Decided on French onion soup which was good. No piano player during the week any longer. I guess new owners only want him on Saturdays. Sad 😞 Market shop used to offer more handmade blankets upstairs which is now a storage facility only open to employees.

    Unbelievable views, ambiance, and delectable food! We ate outside in one of the covered sections, which makes it very private. The stonework and waterfalls intertwined throughout the terrace area is a masterpiece by itself. We went for breakfast and would highly recommend the quiche & waffles. Make sure you go here while in Maui- it’s a must see!

    This was recommended by a server at another restaurant. Definitely worth the drive. Both dinners were delicious. It is a bit of a scary drive to this part of upcountry. If you are uncomfortable driving winding, narrow roads in the dark,go for lunch. The views are spectacular, hospitality is what you would expect from a “local” spot. We will be back.
