About this business

What used to be an old pineapple cannery is now Mala, the epitome of global organic fusion cuisine. It's not as complicated as it sounds.

No negatives. There twice in two nights and cannot be more pleased. great hospitality and service (Katherine and Noreen are wonderful), and the food was beautifully presented and even better on the palate. Great wine selection for its size. A must to go, even more than once in Lahaina, Maui. As good or better than y restaurant we’ve been to (and we’ve been to many). Congratulations on having such a great eatery.

Food was amazing. Server was very knowledgeable about my food allergies and how to modify my meal to keep it gluten, dairy and shellfish free. No complaints about restaurant, but be cautious with leaving valuables in car....my mom’s phone was stolen from our car while we ate!!!! Parking situation is pretty bad.
