About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Charming
Great for fine wines

Hawaii’s first and only Relais & Châteaux restaurant, The Restaurant at Hotel Wailea offers a 'culinary casual' experience with creative island-to-table cuisine. Menus are created around what is readily available from Maui’s farms and fisherman ensuring that each dish is prepared using only the finest local, seasonal and artisanal products; including those grown in the restaurant’s own orchard.

From its perch on the hillside above South Maui's Wailea resort area, the restaurant offers sweeping panoramic ocean views from the upper lanai and intimate dining under the stars in the garden. Voted one of OpenTable's Top 100 Most Romantic Restaurants in the US, and Top 10 Restaurants in Hawaii.

Wow. We’ve been visiting Maui for years and didn’t know about this hidden gem. Intimate experience, incredible setting. Seeing a kitchen staff member trimming items in the garden for that evening’s meals showed the freshness of the ingredients. Truly great food and excellent service. We will return and we will tell others that this is a must visit when on this part of the island. Didn’t stay at the hotel but it looked like a phenomenal place for a romantic getaway. Didn’t matter at all that we weren’t near the beach!

The food was not all worth $150. Service was slow even though multiple people were assisting in our section.

The scallop was one of the best preparations I've ever had. Just perfect. The Kanpachi crudo was good but a little underwhelming and not as complex as it could've been and the Kanpachi entree was slightly overcooked and therefore a disappointment. It's a fantastic restaurant with great service but I think we might've caught them on an off night.

It took an hour and 40 min for our mains to come. We asked they be boxed up because no one acknowledged us or apologized. For $150 per person we were absolutely appalled, not a 5 star experience at all.

Our dinning experience was exceptional. We booked it last minute at the recommendation from a waitress in another restaurant. She suggested a drink at the on site bar called The Bird Cage before dinner. We are planning another visit next year. Love every aspect of it. Ann was our fantastic server. Thank you for a great birthday celebration.
