    Great place to eat alfresco and enjoy the view. Our entrees were very good, 3 of us had the fresh catch of the day and it well worth the price. This restaurant was charming and all staff friendly. We had a slow start mainly getting our beverages, otherwise the meal was paced well and we enjoyed the evening and sunset.

    The fried calamari was unusual. It was strips from a large-bodied squid that looked more like chicken nuggets. There were no tenickles.

    Mala is a must when you go to Maui. Right on the water, wonderful fusion flavors with friendly service. The Mahi Mahi with ginger and black bean sauce was delicious!
