Best meal we had in Maui. The food is fantastic. I had the lobster and crab sruffed Mahi Mahi. The staff is excellant and very friendly. The views and ambience are great. Yes this place is expensive. Our meal with food, drinks and everything was $150, but would do it again. If your on a budget and want, to eat... more

We went to many of the "best" restaurants in Maui and this was by far the best one. It is a bit pricey so it's a good place for a special occasion. The location, scenery and ambiance was amazing. The great food made it even more special. I was with a big group and we ordered a few of the... more

The ocean view and restaurant itself were beautiful. Ate lunch here in December 2009, I had octopus, and spouse had a tofu-based dish, which we both liked. Prices are alarmingly high, but it is a neat experience. This restaurant is best for a special occasion or to impress a client. Other customers included a family with young children and wealthy-looking... more

First let me say that Mama's has a great location, the service is excellent and the food is very good. However, you can get this at many restaurants on Maui without spending a fortune. My wife and I went there simply because we live here and had never dined there before. I thought that going for lunch would give up... more

Mama's Fish House is one of the best places to dine in all of Hawaii. Why so expensive? Oddly enough, it is so rare to find a quality restaurant that serves fresh (and I mean, caught the same day - never frozen) fish in Hawaii. The fish, lobster and any other seafood that you see on the menu was delivered... more

I've spoke to many tourists and they've raved about this restaurant. On my second last day in Maui, I decided to see what all the fuss is about. My hotel is in Kaanapali so it's quite the distance to travel for food. It took about 50 minutes each way. Turned into the parking lot, there is complimentary parking. Bonus #1.... more

Great location and tropical feel. Food is very good but way overpriced. Expect to spend $70 per person ( or more). Best deal is the coffee. The coffee is PERFECT. We go to Mama's as it is an enjoyable experience, but it is expensive, so be warned. more

We were at Mama's on Thanksgiving Day for lunch. Terrific view of the beach & ocean. The service & ambiance was fabulous and the food was amazing. My husband and I split the shrimp wonton appetizer and split the entree of their daily special: mahi crusted with pumpkin seeds in a light pineapple reduction and stuffed with lobster. Side of... more

I took my elderly parents there for what was supposed to be a memorable meal in Hawaii. It took over 15 minutes just to receive menus then another 20 minutes befor the server retrurned to take our order and that was only after I walked the bar to see if there was someone who could help us. When the server... more
