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.

Fantastic view right on the water. Watch turtles as you eat. Food was a good as the view.
Excellent service, friendly staff, great food, amazing view. I can't fill this review with enough superlatives. Go near sunset and sit outside and you will not be disappointed.
Awesome sunset and great local feel to this place. Stir fry and Ahi was phenomenal
We started coming to Mala back when it wasn't as well known (15 years ago); still love it. Great food, service, views. Highly recommended!
Not even worthy of one star. The manager at the front desk berated the seating hostess prior to seating us. I am so not impressed...we were seated looked at the over priced menu & chose to leave after watching the continued attitude at work.
Business response:
Aloha Lisa, we are sorry to hear of your experience last year. Mala has gone under new ownership as of November 1, 2018. We hope that you are willing to give us another chance while you are on Maui next. We are focused enhancing the experience for the guest, as we are so excited to be in this magically oceanfront spot in Lahaina. Mahalo nui loa for the feedback and aloha!
Love the open air seating. Breezy and right on the water. Food was excellent! Will go again and highly recommend Mala Ocean Tavern!
