Would love to have seen pictures of all the food and dessert.
Mama’s to me is magical. I love the entrance and the feel of a timeless Hawaiian decor. The food is unique and always prepared perfect. The wait staff is non intrusive and is helpful with recommendations. I can’t wait to return in February for our 50th wedding anniversary.
Sorry, but this article sounds like a promotion for Mama’s Fish House. I live in Maui, so I’ll say this upfront: it is not worth the cost. Period.
Yes, the setting is nice, but they nickel-and-dime you for everything—even the bread. You can get equal or better fish elsewhere on the island for much less the price. Let’s be serious about it.
If you put that restaurant in the middle of the island, the prices would drop dramatically. It’s like Disney World—overcharging tourists who expect it and don’t know better.
If you want to spend that kind of money, try Merriman’s in Kapalua instead.The food is great, and the oceanfront view is amazing, and a great menu. Both places are overpriced, especially for families, But for a special night out I would choose Merriman’s in a second.
Just.a local Maui resident opinion🤙
We’ve been to Merriman’s in Kapalua.
Mama’s Fish House beats it hands down, at least in our opinion. You have to judge by yourselves.
(BTW, looking forward to Merriman’s new restaurant on the old Seven Palms site at the Mana Kai resort in South Kihei, if it ever becomes reality ….)
