The 19 Best Restaurants In Maui - Maui - The Infatuation

"Havens is like a house dress that doubles as a date night outfit. The huge space by the harbor has cozy areas, particularly the patio in the evening, for an intimate dinner, but there’s also plenty of room for a big gathering. It’s also easy to find something to please the table, like charbroiled steaks, and clams steamed with sake and Portuguese sausage (get it with the cast iron focaccia to sop up all the broth). The best deal on the menu, though—and what we see regulars ordering—is the Bucket List meal that’s big enough for two with fried chicken, plus the silkiest mashed potatoes, giardeniera, and Hawaiian chili pepper jam. At lunchtime, come for the excellent smashburgers that Havens originally built its name on. You can also find these crispy-edged patties on plush buns at the Havens food truck in Kahului that’s located in a parking lot across from Costco." - martha cheng

Haven’s started out with a small takeaway counter in Kihei which has since closed. They still have a food truck in Kahului and this latest brick & mortar in Ma’alaea’s Maui Harbor Shops. ATMOSPHERE: They’ve taken over the former Beach Bums spot on the lower level. It’s a spacious, open air eatery with a lively beach house vibe and has great views of the harbor and Haleakala. RESERVATIONS: Recommended as they were pretty busy on this particular Sunday night. PARKING: Free for kama’aina but a fee for everyone else. After 5pm it’s free for all. DINNER MENU: American & Italian. BEVERAGE: La Perouse I’m guessing this is their version of a mule, which while tasty, didn’t have a strong fizziness from the ginger beer. FOOD: Brussels Sprouts I normally wouldn’t order this common app but it sounded good tonight, and tasted even better than I had imagined. No drizzle or sauce needed with its trifecta of sweet, savory and char flavors. Chelsea Farm Clams The delicate, savory broth was heavenly, with added smokiness from the Portuguese sausage slivers. Garlic Butter Fries Nom! The world’s best fries have been crowned. Local Romaine Caesar A baby romaine caesar is few and far between nowadays. This version sported a more tangy dressing with light creaminess. Crispy Kanpachi Roll I’m not a sushi fan but this was insanely good. The rice to filling ratio was perfect as well. Local Style Mahi No kanpachi was available so mahi it was. Whenever I see fish done in a shoyu broth, it’s an automatic order for me. I was surprised at the plating as the fish was presented in a bowl. But, it was necessary as the fish sat in a pool of the gingery, savory and tart broth, topped with sea asparagus (sea beans) and ogo (seaweed). House-made Rigatoni The bite I had was very tasty and the homemade pasta was cooked perfectly. SERVICE: My only gripe was the food delivery timing as the entrées came out while we were still enjoying the apps which crowded the table. Male server was okay and checked on us once. OVERALL: Average pricing, flavorful everything, good portion sizes. Highly recommended!

This was our last Maui dinner. Went on Monday evening at about 530 pm. Recommended by our whale watch tour guide. It is in the old BBQ place with a great location on Ma'alea Harbor. It is a great place, great location with patio seating snd indoor seating. The views from the patio seating and the hugh top tables were great. We did walk in and it was hit or miss. They said they were very busy with "big parties". We did get a high top by the bar. It was INCREDIBLY noisy. It was fine becuase we did not have reservations. We knew we would be limited. We did not get placesettings without asking. No water without asking. Server was great. Knew the menu and offered great recommendations. We got our appetizers (waygu croquettes) before getting any place setting or silverware. We also had to ask for salt and pepper but it was fresh ground so that made up for it. The manager was super friendly abd nice and seemed to be paying attention to us and the other high tops near us. She was There was a LONG wait between appetizer and meals. My hubs got the waygu filet and it was amazing. I did the red prawn malfedine, which was great! Noodles made in house. The food was great and tasted phenomenal. It is per course pricing and we did not see a kids menu. There is a bar and a large liquor list. I got a strawberry lemonade that was okay. We had to ask for refills on water. The server seemed more interested in the men at the bar. It is paid parking at the harbor. But we knew that as well. It was somewhat hard to find a spot on a Monday evening. My recommendations: Ambience 4/5...very noisy. We couldn't hear each other. Maybe install some sound proofing on the ceiling. Service 3/5...this is where I was disappointed with the slowness and having to ask for things. Management please have the employees pay attention to details. It is what matters. Anticipating customers needs goes a LONG way. Food 5/5....it was great! Taste was awesome. The menu seemed somewhat limited. Pricing 3/5...was somewhat overpriced but I get it it is Hawaii. I would recommend for adults, I would not take children here. Keep up the great work we will be back!!

We tremendously enjoyed Haven’s for Christmas Eve with the prix fixe menu. Havens is a relatively new hidden gem with incredibly delicious dishes and fabulous service. Lisja, who was our culinary guide, highlighted fine details of each dish well beyond just what was listed on the menu. Exceptional in every way! My husband had the ahi tataki and was thoroughly impressed. The ahi was super fresh and the sauce had just the right amount of heat with a beautiful depth of flavor. Absolutely excellent. For my main entree, I had the Colorado Lamb Chops. They were prepared with a marcona almond crust and paired with fabulous caramelized Maui onion potato purée. The date chutney added so much to the lamb chops, I just couldn’t stop saying, wow! My husband is a self described scallop connoisseur. In most fine dining restaurants, if scallops are on the menu, he orders them. He has had this exact preparation before at Havens, as it was recommended by another one of their excellent servers. Not only did it not disappoint, he proclaimed these are consistently the BEST scallops he’s ever had. PERIOD. BAR NONE. And, he is comparing these to scallop dishes he’s had at Per Se, The French Laundry, Herb & Wood, Huso, La Mar (Lima), Osaka (Lima) and many more fine dining juggernauts. He’s throwing out these names to hopefully impress upon anyone reading this how magical this dish is. We finished with one of each of the desserts. While both were excellent, the lilikoi vanilla bean meringue tart was the star of the show. A perfect way to wrap up a perfect Christmas Eve celebration. While Haven’s is a 20-30+ minute drive for people coming from Wailea, West Maui or Paia, it is absolutely worth it! Hence them winning the 2025 ‘Aipono Awards Best New Restaurant on Maui and Chef of the Year for Chef Zach Sato. By the way, we’re going back for NYE. Can’t wait!

We didn't have any reservations to this beautiful restaurant, but we're able to be assisted as walk in guests. The ambience is outstanding. The view can't beat overlooking the harbor, South Kihei and of course beautiful Haleakala. The food is beyond Ono (delicious.) The flavors, food presentation as we locals like to say, "Broke the Mouth!" The friendly services from the hostess, our waiter Scott, the manager 100% extraordinary. I truly recommend this establishment a must try. ❤️🤙

This was my second visit to Haven’s, and once again, I had a great experience. On my first visit, I had the Smashburger — easily one of the best I’ve had. On our return, we went for the Tomahawk steak and scallops. Both were absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is a standout, with a beautiful view of the harbor at sunset that really elevates the experience. Service was excellent — the staff is friendly and attentive, checking in often. The only small suggestion there is to give guests a bit more space between check-ins, as too many can interrupt the flow of conversation between guests. The drink selection was solid. Cocktails and wines were well chosen, and I really liked the beer selection — a nice change from the usual big-brand lineup. I’d still love to see more non-alcoholic options added down the line. If I had one other note, it’s that prices feel a bit high for a newer restaurant, especially compared to some well-established spots on Maui. That said, the quality is clear, and Haven’s has real potential. Wishing the team all the best — I’m looking forward to seeing how they grow.

One of our BEST meals of the entire trip! If you have the opportunity to dine here, do yourself a favor and make it happen! Riley was our server, and he was great! We shared the Caesar salad, wagyu croquettes and rice cake to start which was all 10 out of 10! For the main dishes my husband got the Bucket, I got the smash burger and we split the truffle rissoto. Probably best rissoto I've ever tasted! I do want to mention during our time in Maui we also stayed on the Wailea side at the Grand Wailea Waldorf Astoria and dined at some of the top restaurants over there and at the Four Seasons. Havens beats any of those fancy hotel restaurants by a long shot! Quality food, quality people, quality place!

We chose to have an early Mother’s Day dinner here before returning home to Molokaʻi and we are more than happy we did. Austin was our server and Lance was the Manager that evening and all the staff were so kind, professional, and answered all our questions lol. Us locals get plenty questions. The food was mean! We had the short ribs that you could cut with a fork! Lobster mac and cheese, scallops, super soft steak, and the oyster shooters was the best I ever had, hands down!! I not even kidding. I recommend Haven’s and cannot wait til I go back to Maui to eat there again. Go, you won’t regret it!!

Haven’s Harborside was a great choice, as Google suggested! It’s located in front of the marina, which gives it a very different vibe from the other restaurants we visited in Maui. Our server, Mick, was simply spectacular, recommending wine, dishes, and desserts. Honestly, we didn’t have to see the menu and could’ve gone with his suggestions. Every dish was delicious and beautifully plated. Notable mentions are the crispy Kanpachi Roll (Mick’s reco), the bone-in New York Steak, the Diver Scallops, and the Malasadas. If you haven’t tried them, don’t miss the chance. They’re some kind of a donut with guava jelly injected as they come from the drier. Simply delicious. We had an absolute blast.

Five stars for Haven's Harborside. This may be my new favorite restaurant in Maui. Local food, casual high class dining, exceptional service, delicious local dishes! Connor, our server was amazing. He needs a raise! Excellent customer service and polished professional. The food here is good. Really good. Appetizers, Brussel Sprouts - A Wagyu Croquettes - B+ Main dishes: Local island caught black snapper served with pohole (island fern) and fresh ogo (sea weed). Amazing. Grade: A Risotto with added scallops. Grade A Smash burger with fries. Grade A You can eat your meal inside or outside. Both have beautiful views of the harbor. Everyone from the host to the manager to the bus staff to our amazing Connor - they all made it an amazing experience.

I recently had the chance to check out the Haven's Harborside Fish & Chophouse in Maalaea, and it was a total surprise--in the best way. If you remember the space from before, they took over the previous Beach Bums BBQ, you'll know it had a bit of a dark and dated feel. Not anymore! The restaurant has been completely transformed into a bright, modern, and inviting spot with colorful touches that give it a fresh, modern island vibe. My coworkers and I went for happy hour, which runs daily from 3 to 5 p.m., and it turned out to be the perfect setting for a casual celebration. The happy hour menu provided a variety of choices. There seems to be a strong focus on sustainability as they work closely with local fishermen and suppliers to source only the freshest, ethically caught seafood which makes an appearance in about half of the items on the menu. They do offer a kamaaina discount as well if you sit up at the bar. However, we opted for a table during this visit. We ordered a little bit of everything from the happy hour options, and there were few standout dishes. The NY steak pupu, fish & chips, and chilled black tiger shrimp were all hits--fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot. We also tried the truffle fries, poi falafel, and spicy tuna rice cakes. The falafel was just okay, and while I didn't personally try the rice cakes, my coworkers thought they were a bit too hard and not quite balanced in flavor. For drinks, I had the Baldwin Beach mocktail, which was refreshing and perfect for the warm Maui afternoon. My coworkers opted for cocktails, which they described as strong and spot-on for our celebratory mood. It's always nice when a place nails both food and drinks, and Haven's delivered. Service was another high point--friendly, attentive, and efficient--and the happy hour prices felt more than fair for the quality. It's great to see this spot not only refreshed in atmosphere but also delivering on taste and experience. If you're in Maalaea and looking for a place to unwind, celebrate, or just enjoy a solid happy hour with good food and drinks, Haven's Harborside is definitely worth a visit.

Haven's Harborside feels fresh and new, In Maʻalaea Harbor with a gorgeous view. Across from the charters, the setting is prime, Seafood and flavors that truly shine. Wagyu croquettes, a tapa redefined, Brussels and potatoes, crisp and aligned. Our Rodbender Ono and Mahi Mahi catch became quite the feat, Two family-style dishes, sauces complete. Indoors or out, the vibe is refined, Resort-style dress with fine dining in mind. Service was stellar, the flavors divine, A Maui gem where seafood meets design.

We popped into Havens for happy hour and it ended up being my favorite meal on Maui. People kept steering us to the sit-down pizza spot, but Havens quietly punches way above its weight. The oyster shooter was a standout. Super fresh with a pepper-infused kick, lemon, and that clean ocean taste. I was melting from the heat and it still hit. The Burger scratched the burger itch too -- melty cheese with that easy pull and a satisfying, juicy bite. I don't remember the fries, which tells me they were fine, nothing wild. The steak was the showstopper. Tender, medium-rare steak with green onion over that chewy-tasty base, super balanced and just delicious. $26. Service deserves love. Our server kept checking on me and refilling waters while I was basically overheating, and she was so kind about it. Absolute legend. Overall, clutch spot, great value at happy hour, and food that actually sticks with you. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Seating was cute with a view of the harbor.

Very good food & excellent service. This restaurant was near our Air B&B. We didn't have high expectations but were pleasantly surprised. The host was very welcoming & friendly. After he learned we were celebrating 3 days & an anniversary, he gifted us with ornaments for birthdays & and anniversary. Corkage was $25. We enjoyed the food except for the special fish of the day - we found the fish a bit dry/tough, fishy & not flavorful. The rest we enjoyed very much. The server was excellent: attentive, explained each dish well & was very accommodating. We got desserts too. Beignets were just average so probably would not otder them again when we come back next time we are in Maui.

We came here on a Saturday afternoon to try the happy hour. This place is located downstairs in the Maui Harbor Shops at Maalaea. There is plenty of parking (pay online, free for Hawaii residents). There is a large seating area inside with a big bar. The breezy seating outside is covered with a great ocean view. The service is very friendly! We ordered the mai tai, margarita, oyster shooters, shrimp cocktail, smash burger, butter garlic fries, and NY steak pupu. Both drinks were handcrafted, refreshing and so yummy! The shrimp cocktail comes with 4 super tender jumbo shrimp. The oyster shooters definitely lives up to its glowing reputation. The steak is lean but tender, is grilled perfectly and comes with a flavorful dipping sauce. The smash burger is really juicy and goes well with the garlic butter fries. They have a 25% kamaaina discount for lunch and dinner if you sit at the bar. No kamaaina discount for happy hour. We'll definitely be back for more happy hour and to try the other menu items!

This was such a lovely little gem by the harbor! One of our local friends suggested Haven's as our meeting spot for a delicious and relaxing meal after arriving on Maui. The restaurant had a table set up for us outside for our reservation, which gave us a great view of the water. We ordered the cast iron focaccia as a starter while we looked over the menu. (It was so good that we got a second one for the table with dinner!) After we got our beverages, our waiter, Nate, made some excellent suggestions for our entrees. I decided to go with the diver scallops with xo and miso brown butter hollandaise sauces. It was stunning, especially since the hollandaise was partially foamed to make it light and airy. The scallops were cooked absolutely perfectly and melted in your mouth. We also shared the lobster mac and cheese and grilled broccolini with aged balsamic. Despite the generous serving sizes, it was effortless to eat everything! The food was delicious with truly quality ingredients, and we savored every bite. The service by Nate and the crew was impeccable. Our friend dining with us has been in food service for 30 years, and he noted how professional and thoughtful the servers were throughout the meal. We had a really fantastic experience at Haven's Harborside, and I would definitely come back here on my next visit!

Havens Harborside is an absolute gem on Maui. The food was beyond delicious--every dish came out bursting with flavor, like the kitchen was having as much fun as I was. And the staff? Truly incredible. They treat you like family from the moment you walk in. It's the kind of place that leaves you full, happy, and already planning your next visit. A perfect little harbor of good vibes and great food.

Had an incredible dining experience at Havens Harborside! Parking was easy to find. We were able to walk in because they weren't busy and got seated right away. The fish is caught daily right across from where you sit! I started off with a lychee mule which is basically a moscow mule with lychee in it! I also enjoyed the filet and brussels sprouts. This was one of the best cooked and quality steaks I've had in a while. The ambiance was lively and had a nice atmosphere.

Everything went well on this visit, we went for the late lunch-happy hour. The hamburger was top notch. My partner had the fish and chips. She enjoyed the dipping sources. I have a salad it was refreshing. We got a table with the view of the harbor. It was windy, but it was still beautiful. Oyster shooters were fresh. Our servers were attentive as a team and they are proud of their work. The fries were cooked in clean oil not over seasoned. It was really a good meal overall worth the money spent.

Finally made it to Haven's Harborside! Came with the parents for Mother's Day dinner. They were busy but everything was still as delicious as I'd expect from Zach and team! Started with the crispy kanpachi roll. It came out quickly and was perfectly crispy and filled with such amazing flavor burst. Dad & I both had the grilled big eye ahi for main and we all shared the green beans and crispy potatoes. Mom had the diver scallops. We finished with an order of malasadas. Everything was fabulous! We all left very satisfied and full. We sat outside which was perfect. It was a beautiful night with great full moon views. Mick was our server and he was great! He was attentive, but not overly so, made great recommendations and was just on it. Great spot all around! Can't wait to go back and check out happy hour!

We came for Mother's Day brunch. It was delicious. We ordered French Toast for the table to share and it was the best French toast! I'm pretty sure it was a cornbread French toast. I hope they always have this on every breakfast menu. Three of the four of us ordered the Breakfast Smash. It was huge and amazing! Sorry we didn't take any food pictures because we just dug in! The service was excellent and only topped by the view of the harbor and the Pacific Ocean!

Enjoyed a light dinner with friends on a Weds night. Easy parking right in front of the restaurant instead of the complicated upstairs lot. Ambiance was elegant and bright with uniformed staff greeting my arrival even though I came after our 6 top was already seated. Lots of warm wood finishes and attractive seating. It was already dark, but during daytime there are stellar harbor views of the harbor and breaching Humpback whales on the bay towards the uninhabited Kahoolawe. The bar looked like a custom wood Japanese temple with backlit bottles lined with vertical green subway tile backsplash. LED TVs were visible but unobtrusive and volume subdued to NBA playoffs. Glassed in kitchen showcased uniformed chefs hustling on the line. I'm glad they obscured the bottom half of end window so guests were limited to see "everything." Tried a good variety of drinks, dishes and entrees that were elegantly presented by servers and runners at the same time. Elote corn, mushrooms, green beans, potatoes, arrived in small colorful bowls were seasoned and garnished. Iron skillet Bread was nice with a crisp herb crust with a ramekin of herb butter. Chimichurri Steak was sliced thin off the bone on a platter and MR Colorado Lamb chops were carved from the whole rack. Scallops were seared tender and Fresh Catch had ample sauces. All foods were moist, seasoned and very good. The only hiccup was green beans served to our friend allergic to shellfish. They didn't know that the beans were garnished with "opae", Hawaiian for tiny dried bay shrimp. Manager Lance and Server Connor were very apologetic, and professional and often checked on her condition which was minor. Once we were done with dinner Lance offered to bring dessert and we sampled almost everything. Guava stuffed Malasadas with Anglaise was popular. Mango Cheesecake with a crust seasoned with cardamon, and Chocolate Ice Cream bar were delicious. Ube chocolate slice was great, but sweet. Overall, it's a nice additional option for an elegant restaurant in the central Ma'alaea location that's sometimes overlooked at night.

We had a lovely lunch here . Our friendly server suggested the poke nachos, as my friend had the smash burger and truffle fries . The nachos were delicious but maybe start with less sauce or ask for it on the side . The nachos part was crispy wontons very good flavors and fresh fish . My friend said her burger was outstanding and the truffle fry's were the best she's ever had . The service was friendly and attentive. Of course you can't beat the ocean view with the Maalea harbor.

Absolutely LOVE this place! We go nearly weekly to the happy hour as it's a perfect place to meet my husband to celebrate the end of the week - he works in town and I in Kihei so it's central and beautiful- definitely worth the drive every time! Fast friendly service and consistently fantastic and fresh! You can often see the fishermen deliver fresh fish straight from the harbor boats. It's our first choice for a special dinner out - we celebrated our Anniversary here this year and met out with special friends for dinner too- I absolutely love the scallops- cooked to perfection! The house made focaccia is terrific in a small cast iron pan! And the risotto is the best I ever had! Risotto seems to always disappoint with rice being undercooked or the sauce not as tasty as hoped... not here! I have it every time and it's always on point! Lunch is also superb! I love the fish tacos! And don't miss the poke nachos! Whatever you are celebrating- consider this gem of a restaurant! It's no wonder it won best restaurant of 2025 and best chef!! YUMMY!!!

Great location next to the charter boats and whale watching boats. We had a very nice lunch on the veranda and watched the half day charters come back with flags of their catch on their upright outrigger poles; mainly Mahi, an Ono (Wahoo), and Ahi (Yellowfin tuna). We had a fresh Mahi sandwich and a Paniolo Smash Burger with an order of fries to share. Iced Tea and Pineapple juice for drinks. Our server, Tim, was really helpful with the menu and told us what the new restaurant is known for. We really liked our sandwiches and the view of boats, and people. The Vog (Big Island volcano "fog") in April 2025 obscured any views of Kihei and Haleakala; you wouldn't know the landmarks are there! Haven's Harborside is a really nice, modern restaurant. Quite a change from the old dive bar that was in the location before, formerly complete with 'bar flies!'

It's official, I just had my first happy hour experience at "HAVENS HARBORSIDE FISH & CHOPHOUSE." So if anyone ate at this location before this restaurant moved in & did their renovation. You'll definitely be impressed with their gorgeous, plus clean, ocean side color choices & decor. We arrived a few minutes into their happy hour & were seated immediately after requesting a table for four. Plus service was fast in the beginning, waters arrived right after menus were dropped. I started with the "PAIA BAY (rumhaven coconut rum, coconut cream, pineapple passion, orange & guava.)" It was a delicious sweet drink & even the cup was cute. My second drink I tried was the "PUAMANA POOLS (beefeater gin, ginger liqueur, pineapple, lime orgeat & absinthe.)" Now that drink was also delicious & I liked that it came with a ginger candy garnish. As for the Happy Hour Bites I ended up trying the: Chilled black tiger shrimp with ocean vodka cocktail sauce. (The shrimp had a clean presentation & the shrimp were massive.) Spicy ahi poke nachos* with wonton, avo, sea bean, cucumber, ginger relish. (I was actually surprised by how big this plate was considering this was off the happy hour menu. I wasn't able to eat it all & ended up taking home half.i) NY steak pupu* with cabbage, ginger, scallion & finadene. (This was another dish I was impressed with the amount of food. Definitely filling & absolutely delicious.) Verde fish taco with cabbage, smoked pepper, crema & pico de gallo. (Fish tacos are always a go to for me & omg this one is all about that verde flavor.) Truffle fries with parmesan & parsley. (Always a fun snack & no fries were spared.) Dining notes: During slower times it's easier to get VIP service. However when guests start to fill up the remaining empty seats. It left a longer gap between being checked on. So by the time we finished our first round of food & drinks. We didn't get to order our second round until the table was already cleared. Also I noticed the happy hour menu didn't have their name & logo on it. It's just free advertising when a guest takes a picture to share with their friends & family. Plus I like to have it for my food photos, otherwise I might forget where it came from further down the road. I'll definitely need to plan a future lunch & dinner visit. To compare the menus, plus the change in atmosphere for when the sun goes down. Until next time. XOXO, ChelsieFletcher

Great experience here for lunch!! Just finished a boat tour and stopped over right away after. Service was excellent, the server was very knowledgeable of each and every dish and very kind and genuine. I had the blackened Ahi medium rare and my fiancée had the smash burger. Both were excellent but the Ahi was really out of the park. The owner even came by at one point to show us the fish my lunch had came off of, that was caught that morning!!! Very great experience! I will say it was a little more on the expensive side, but if you can swing it, it is definitely worth it.

Lovely spot next to the harbor! Happy hour fare is where it's at! Baja Lobster Taco - simple beer battered tender lobster with a nice salsa verde butter (so creative!) and pico. A little pricey, but excellent quality and flavor. 5 stars. Fish & Chip - the marlin was done right and a good portion. Same tasty beer batter and plentiful fries. 5 stars. Deluxe smash burger - juicy patty with fresh tomato and lettuce on a semi smashed bun. No complaints for $12, but Velzyland smash burger remains king. 5 stars. Our friends had drinks, steak pupu, crab rangoons and poke nachos and all were very satisfied. After reading some other reviews we were concerned about the service during HH, but everyone was attentive and friendly! They checked back 2 times to make sure we didn't want to order any more HH items. Good stuff!

This restaurant has been labeled the best new restaurant in Maui. We ordered their famous smash burgers and their fish and chips for lunch, and both were excellent. The waiter was very energetic and knowledgeable. We dined outside and had a sufficient amount of shade. We have recommended this place to our family and friends and will definitely be back on our next trip to Maui. OK

Last minute stop for some fish burgers here on a quiet Sunday. Nice thing is we choose our seat. Very comfortable, cool, not too noisy, and service was quick. The view of the harbor, Haleakalā, south Kīhei, and other islands are an enjoyable & relaxing scene. I ordered the Mahi-mahi sandwich with truffle fries. The mahi-mahi was slightly over cooked but I think done so for the crispiness. Omg, the fries were so delish I took my leftovers with me for a walk around the boats.

We stopped thinking this was Beach Bum Bar from the last time we were on the island 5 years ago. We were surprised to see a very upscale restaurant but we decided to try it. Bring your wallet, this is a $$$$$ place! The valet was nice as there is no place to park. Unlike Beach Bums were you basically double parked half in the lane of traffic. Valet was Free but you know it still costs you a tip. No waiting inside and we were seated outside. I should have taken a photo of the menu because many would not believe a steak was nearly $100. Everything is à la carte so you pay $14 for a side of potatoes. The waiter was great. He attended our ever need. I decided on the chicken at $55 for a pound of overpriced chicken strips. Don't forget me wrong they tasted outstanding but the price vs value was about $25 off!! My wife ordered the scallops plus the fried potatoes cost nearly $70. Again cost vs value way off!! The food taste and quantity, service as well as atmosphere get a 5 but they really need to work on the value. I would go back except my wallet is holding me back. Hopefully after 3 months they reconsider their prices or maybe a lonely ole upper middle class person is not there market. I miss Beach Bums!

It's no wonder Havens Harborside received the 'Aipono Award Gold for best new restaurant on Maui. From Pupus, to Smash Burgers, fish, pasta, steaks.... something for everyone's palate. I had the manila clams - amazing, and the diver scallops- OMG. Beautiful setting, quality locally sourced food, friendly staff... definitely a #1 Maui destination. Thank you Havens!

Heard so many great things about this new restaurant. They did not disappoint. Food was delicious. Higher price point for dinner. Waiter said to come for lunch. Prices are lower and food is just as yummy! Ambiance was perfect service was great.

We stopped in last night to try out the New Haven's location. I love that they offer valet. You can drive up to the curb and hand over your keys. Not having to do the whole QR code parking lot thing is a huge plus. Next to the hostess podium is a little photo stand where you can take a pic (or boomerang) with their logo on it and have it emailed or texted to you. The decor is really nice . If you have ever seen what it was before when Beach Bum's was there, it's night and day. Beautiful job with the remodel. The drinks were tasty. Very trendy "mixology"style. I had a Freight Train and a Koki Kolada. The Koki was my favorite of the two, but it was definitely more of a dessert drink so I'm glad it was the last one I ordered. My date got the La Perouse. That was yummy too. We ordered scallops, honestly the highlight of the night. They were cooked perfectly and came with a yummy sauce. We also got the Manila clams, Maine Lobster Chophouse filet, and oyster shooters. I didn't love the lobster but it was huge and beautifully prepared. The filet came with a sauce, which was pretty much A-1. It was cooked perfectly but we did ask for salt. I'm a firm believer that if a steak is seasoned properly, no sauce of any kind is needed. But that's just me. We were seated outside along the balcony and had a pretty view. We were enjoying most of the evening just relaxing taking in the ambiance; until the table next to us had people visit them and they were just standing up around their table (and ours) talking loudly for a long time. Kinda a buzz kill when you're on a fancy date, but not the restaurant''s fault. It was pricey but they do offer Kamaaina discount and have a happy hour that looks great too.

Service was very good, ambiance was good with harbor views. Food was horrible and way overpriced. Steak filet was $72 and was tough. Short ribs were $68 and fatty plus very overseasoned. Scallops were undercooked.

Don't get us wrong, the food here is yummy and fresh. We looked at the menu before we went. However our server talked over us and before you know it the items we intended to purchase. We didn't get. We even thought we ordered something and didn't get that either. Our server recognized his mistake and they comped us a desert. It goes to show that an over aggressive server can really ruin your meal and experience. If around next year we may try again.

Came here for a business dinner. This restaurant was suggested by one on my guests. Great selection. Drinks, Lupus and entrees were very good. Finished the evening with some malasadas which were also on point.

Haven's Harborside - A Hidden Gem in Hawaii! If you're ever in Maui Hawaii and looking for a place that feels like a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, Haven's Harborside is a must-visit! The setting is serene, yet filled with an exciting, laid-back energy that captures the true spirit of Hawaii. The food here is absolutely top-notch. and every dish I tried was packed with flavor. If you love steak and garlic mashed potatoes, you have to try theirs - it's some of the best me and my husband have ever had. They also gave us a free desert for being on our honeymoon 2 nights in a row! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. The vibe of the place is casual, but with a touch of elegance that makes it perfect for both a relaxing dinner or a special night out. Whether you're sitting outside enjoying the sunset or inside surrounded by the beautiful decor, Haven's Harborside is the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy delicious food, and soak in the beauty of Hawaii. Me and my husband absolutely LOVED it!! I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town! Don't miss this hidden gem.

The smash burger is only that for $18. Nothing else on the plate and it's not a large burger. Kids burger is the same price but comes with fries.... So that's weird Caesar salad was 5 bites $16 Drinks were weak and not in chilled glasses. It was a hot day. Service was efficient and friendly but we were 1 of 3 tables at prime lunch hour. It was quiet too. Maybe turn on some music. The parking is inconvenient but had we felt we received Value for the $ we spent, that wouldn't be a deterrent. We did not. We are local and preferred their gas station location.

Delicious food with an even better ambiance, and very attentive service. A bit pricey for what you get, served tapas style, all sides separate from entrees, but the experience & atmosphere makes up for the tab. *The Grilled big eye Ahi (cooked well on request) w smoked Maui onion was not worth $47, imo.

The atmosphere was great near the harbor. Our drinks were refreshing and tasty. Mai Tai all the way. Fresh mushroom pasta I am still thinking about and the snapper was cooked to perfection. Great date night spot! The service was welcoming and inviting.

An unforgettable dining experience! We started our meal with two outstanding main courses that we shared: the mushroom risotto and the diver scallops, and honestly, it set the tone for the whole evening. The risotto was a showstopper: deep, earthy, and rich with umami from the truffle emulsion, yet somehow light and airy at the same time. Each bite was a delight, so delicious, that I did not want it to end. The scallops were equally impressive, perfectly seared, there was something on top of the scallops which had an umami flavor, earthy, slightly sweet and very different from what I am used to, super interesting, elegant and well balanced, it was served with a miso brown butter hollandaise that was both flavorful and feather-light. That sauce alone is worth coming back for. As our main, we shared the cowboy ribeye, which was beautifully cooked and clearly high-quality meat. We ordered a side of crispy potatoes dressed in chermoula, this had an herby, zesty touch that really transported us. We ordered Brussels sprouts too, they came with guanciale, they were crispy, salty, had a little touch of sweetness ( vinegar reduction maybe?!?) and they were totally addictive! We also tried three sauces with the steak: a classic béarnaise, a house "Kiana" sauce (think a refined take on Diane sauce), and a punchy chimichurri. Each was fantastic in its own way and added a fun, flavorful dimension to the meal. Special shoutout to Scott, our server--he was the man! Super friendly, professional, and clearly knows the menu inside and out. He anticipated all our needs, the service was perfect. He made us feel welcome from start to finish. And the setting? Let's talk about it, it is absolutely perfect. Dining next to the harbor with the ocean breeze rolling, it doesn't get much better than that. Do yourself a favor and head there tonight. You won't be disappointed. I can't wait to go back!

'Ono, delicious, and FRESHH!!!! The ambiance and just the whole look of this place is so beautiful! I've been a huge fan since Kihei gas station store, so I was excited to try the new restaurant the service is so welcoming and everyone has so much aloha. Their cocktails are delicious and refreshing but, I settled for the zero proof Makena, I'm a sucker for lychee and it was absolutely divine!! Alicia our server was great and attentive loved her service and personality. She was so sweet. Hope to see her again next time I'm in. Poke nachos were a lunch special today and UGH BEST IVE HAD ON ISLAND EVER. The homemade wonton chips and the freshest ahi poke with the perfect amount of spice. I couldn't stop eating it. My smash burger was amazing as usual. They do the kolohe fries at the food truck in Kahului but not at the restaurant. I still had to ask if they could do some for me cause I was 'onoing for it. I got lucky cause Chef Zach was in and he made it for me and it hit the spot!!! Love how accommodating everyone was and then the food just topped everything off for me. I'll definitely be back!! Mahalo to the whole team, 10 out of 10.

Absolutely fantastic experience! My dad and I came here for dinner so this review is for the dinner menu. I believe the lunch menu is more like their food truck. We sat outside but kind of in the middle so it wasn't windy where we were. If you are familiar with Maalaea Harbor, you know it's going to be windy. Heck, all you need to do is step outside your car to figure that out. But you can also sit inside and still get a great view of the harbor. First, our server Liz, was amazing! It was a long day of hiking and I was READY for a drink. My brain was not really working, so she asked me what I usually drink (vodka), and recommended a vodka/watermelon/mint/lemonade cocktail which I thoroughly enjoyed. For dinner we ordered the Cowboy Ribeye steak (20 oz), Ohi Moana, Okoa Farm Green Beans, and the Crispy Potatoes. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, medium rare, and the Ohi Moana had some kind of magical broth that made everything delicious. Green beans were great, and the potatoes... we decimated that. Still had plenty left over to get a couple of to-go boxes. BUT that didn't stop us from ordering dessert! The Ube Velvet cake. We ate all of that. We will definitely be back!

Everyone needs a place to go to after a rough ride on the ocean and nothing better than an Open Air Bar at the Harbor. This location has been home to a few other types of bars. Some good, some bad. But...this is not about them. I like the way it looks, feels and is. Clean (when i was there) and comfortable. I sat at the Bar because that's where you can really enjoy the whole experience and talk to people and employees (i guess they're people too). The Bartender was spot on! No hesitation on acknowledging your presence. I actually watched other employees and it seemed that they did the same. The ambiance is a "Harbor Bar" which means that you shouldn't expect a manicured lawn and tiki torches. For me, I love it. It is perfect for just casually getting a drink and food. You can keep your Gemini Mind busy by watching the boats come in with a new crop of Tourists wobbling off of the boat after a bumpy ride. I ordered the Clams with Sausage and a few glasses of wine. Perfect. No, clams are not local so don't say "Maui has the best" but this dish was great. I observed other dishes going by and I don't think that there is any problem with the Kitchen staff. Everything looked great. Overall, I think this place is worth checking out. I would also venture to say that this is a great place to get a nightcap before they close. As for price...that's a topic that makes no sense anymore in this day and age. If its good? Just forget about it and enjoy, or have more to drink.

Great dinner venue. Took family members who were in town and enjoyed every minute. The appetizers and entree's were absolutely delicious not to mention the service and the view of the harbor. Open and airy, more of a contemporary setting with low lights for a more intimate dining vibe.
