    The location looks very similar to a restaurant I visited years ago in Kyoto, Japan. There's a small sushi bar and several low tables with cushions to sit on. My date and I enjoyed being the only ones in the restaurant when they opened at 5:30. The Maguro handrolls were very good. We also enjoyed the cold Soba noodles, the Tofu salad, and the Daikon Radish salad. The staff was very friendly and efficient.

    I had made a reservation for a party of two on a Wednesday for 6:30pm, it wasn’t very busy other than the large group dining on the main table. I ordered the ontama soba (hot), our orders were placed fairly quickly and arrived promptly. The ambiance of the restaurant was quite nice, the Japanese decor and surrounding greenery added a very unique feel to the outside seating. As for the food itself, the soba noodles had a pleasant texture and chew, while the broth was the perfect temperature and remained hot even at the end of our dining experience. The presentation for our meals were very lovely, and stayed true to the Japanese culture. I would love to try any of the sushi dishes the next time that I go here again. Great job, Maui has gained yet another great restaurant.

    A little hidden oasis in the heart of Paia! Traditional Japanese, top quality food ingredients, the ahi melted gracefully in our mouth. We live here on island and we completely felt transported to a different place during our dining experience. It’s worth the investment. Keep on the extraordinary job!

    What a delightful dining experience! This backyard is a little oasis- so quiet and serene. The food was excellent- carefully crafted flavors and textures that were a delight to discover. We tried the cold and hot soba and some sushi. Everything was well done. Helpful service that was never intrusive. The prices are a bit expensive but not by Maui standards. This is a great dining experience that takes you away from the crowds and gives you a great chance to pause and relax.

    The soba noodle was excellent! Their tokachi-soba, 100% backweet, was so smooth. Dashi Tsuyu had just the right sweetness. Their sushi was wonderful- tai and kampachi melted in my mouth. Their ice cream with kuromitsu (mollacess syrup) and mochi were gorgeous. Mochi was still warm and melted ice cream. Yum! Beautifully done! The service was friendly. I highly recommend this place.

    Wabisabi serves delicious homemade soba and sushi. The serene garden setting is perfect for a quiet, relaxing lunch. Just off of Hana Highway in Paia, you will be surprised as you walk past the entrance and enter a beautiful, garden shaded by a large mango tree. The soba was delicious as was the sushi (tuna). The only comment is we wish the soba sauce was more flavorful. It seemed just a bit bland and so we added wasabi and shichimi pepper to add more flavor. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at Wabisabi. Our server was wonderful.

    Wabisabi was such a great experience. Tucked away from the hussle and bussel of daily life. The entryway and rock path you walk to get into the restaurant was like entering into a part of Japan in the country. The food was simple authentic Japanese cuisine and was exactly what we were looking forward to. The experience was something we will treasure.

    Tucked in off the busy street this gem lives up to its name offering an honest and delightful experience for the taste and ambiance. Chef stands behind the counter intentionally creating each morsel with pride. If your looking for an authentic experience without leaving maui, you won’t be disappointed. HINT: don’t forget to plan for the Paia traffic and lack of parking and arrive a bit early.

    Incredible quality of both soba and sushi. The chef is quite a perfectionist. I’m from Japan and a food snob. I never thought this quality restaurant would exist in Paia. Really blows my mind. The ambiance is great too. All the antique garments from Japan are very enjoyable to me. I wish all the best for this place !! Do not hesitate to make a reservation you won’t be disappointed.

    I wish them great luck! Everything was aesthetically delightful! Menu is limited but it works, everything was great! The cost is definitely on the high side but that is what is expected when your in Maui. Only feedback I have is the quantity of bok choy, it's $8 and I only got one whole piece of bokchoy. The flavor is delicious and I ordered another and the 2nd time around I got half a bokchoy from a whole piece. Overall, I will be back!

    If you love Soba noodles , hot or cold, this is the place to go. The noodles are fresh, house-made and the dashi broth was excellent. Vegan selections available. Great ambiance, covered and open-air dining. Definitely a new favorite and we will return and recommend to friends.
