We were looking for where to enjoy exceptional seafood for lunch while on Maui. We wanted to share an experience with the host of our stay at a quality service and food restaurant.
We were totally pleased with the food, view, atmosphere, service, food and beverages!
Dining near the water at a beautiful table along with the opportunity to meet the owner and hear his story of supporting the community was a premium experience. The decor and the story behind it are so intriguing! Take time to view the wall fish art at the entrance of the incredible octopus over the beverage station near the bar. Both highlight local artists and are exceptional art.
The Aloa Smash Burger is loaded with pickles and grilled onions; it stands so tall one has to open wide to taste it’s fantastic flavors. I recommend the Teriyaki Grilled King Salmon with Market Greens and Havens Mai Tai cocktail - it offers true Maui flavors. Excellent Bloody Mary's!
Another diner in our group had Verde Fish Tacos and found the smoked pepper cream to perfectly balance the flavors with cabbage and herbs. We finished our meal by sharing mango cheesecake; it presents beautifully and tastes superb.
The staff was attentive, very professional, and gave us menu guidance while respecting our conversational space. Always politely available at just the right moment.
Our Maui visit was a weeklong, and this was our favorite dining out moment. Thank you for this great food and dining experience, Havens! We hope to be back! Maui chef Zach Sato gets big applause from us!
They also provide a gluten-free menu and a happy hour menu daily from 3pm-5pm. We found curbside parking with ease.
