Lots of places to sit. Lots of varieties of meats. Elk was not too bad! Beef burger was also really good. Open grill bbq you can smell it up the road!! Also look how clean they keep the prep area (very nice to see) It’s always good to do lunch here and then Maui wine across the street for some wine sampling. Perfect afternoon!

So we drove out here last week Wednesday just to get out of the house and it was a beautiful day. So decided to put the top down on the car and go visit some spots on the way out to the ranch store. When we got there you could already smell the grill. They have a lot of great stuff in the store especially if you are visiting Maui from somewhere else it is a great place to pickup a souvenir. We were there for lunch so we ordered an order of chili and rice and then they had a special avocado bacon burger which also comes with tomatoes lettuce and onions. I have to say one of the best burgers on the island grilled to perfection with a nice soft bun and fresh veggies. The chili and rich has your local sticky rice and the chili had big chunks of beef and beans in a tomato chili base. Both were delicious and the reason we keep stopping by. The view and the burger are definitely worth the drive.

Very cool stop if youre venturing to the south end of Maui. Very few places to stop for food or snacks on this route. Burger was a bit overdone but was fine and this is a must stop. Store is very western themed. Has a Cracker Barrel asthetic.

Loved the world famous Ulupalakua Ranch in Maui’s Upcountry off Kula Highway. The Ranch Store is across street from the winery. Ranch Store offers beef, elk or venison burgers. Beef is their signature Maui Cattle Company brand and elk is raised and processed on ranch, venison is Axis Deer, also local harvest. They can get really super busy, so plan accordingly. Retail store inside has all kinds of touristy things, clothing and other items. Great place. Worth the drive. Plenty of free parking. Outdoor dining spaces with beautiful view.

We actually sat down at another establishment just down the road but decided to come here as I will always choose lunch over breakfast any day.
ATMOSPHERE:
Located far from civilization on the southeast slopes of Mt. Haleakala sits the quaint and charming building. The front porch features smoothed tree stumps with counter seating, and umbrella-protected outdoor picnic tables on either side of restaurant. They’ve finally added a sink to wash your hands! The peaceful landscape of Ulupalakua and killer bi-coastal views of Central Maui are the gorgeous backdrops. The inside is reminiscent of an old country mercantile, selling cowboy wear, Ulupalakua Ranch logo wear, snacks and knick knacks.
MENU:
A sole salad, burgers (choose from venison, beef, lamb, elk and taro), plate lunches (hamburger steak, kalbi ribs, chili & rice, hot dog).
FOOD:
Beef Burger
I was wanting to try the elk burger but they were out. All of the beef is locally raised at Maui Cattle Company, so you can’t get a fresher burger than this! I opted for cheddar cheese, and added roasted mushrooms and caramelized onions. The bun was nicely toasted and the burger juicy, tasty and cooked perfect to my medium-temperature request. The amount of toppings were very generous and added at least a half inch to its thickness. Absolutely delish!
Elk Burger
I did get to try it on another visit. No gaminess and tasted similar to beef.
Potato Wedges
The tray of wedges were lightly seasoned and came with an amazing dipping sauce which was a mixture of mayo, basil, garlic, basil, lemon juice and other unknown spices. The portion was enough for two to share.
SERVICE:
Order your food at the kitchen counter, pay at the main register and take a seat. The grill is on the side lanai, so listen for your name to be called and grab your food there. Condiments were plentiful and well-stocked. Everyone was friendly and welcoming.
OVERALL:
Highly recommended for the burger fan. Definitely worth the trek.

An adventure for lunch. It’s a bit of a hike to get here in the car. We started from Kihei so it took an hour each way. Glad we stopped there because the burger was amazing and the drive was too. I had the lamb burger and it was delicious. My wife had the regular burger and that was good too!

This is the best burger place in Maui. Disclosure: I haven’t tried every burger, and there may be better burgers places. It is a bit of a drive to get here, but it is so good. The meat has a genuine beefy taste. Before you go to Cheese Burger in Paradise, come here. There is more effort to get here, but it is worth it.

We had a quick bite there. The hotdog and fries was good. The hod dog was well grilled.
The place is also super cute, with an outer garden full of flowers.
The prices were reasonable.

Located on the back road to Hana even if you don’t want to drive all the way to Hana this road is quite an experience on the residential area of Kula passing the ranches and farms.
This store is located across the Maui wine shop they do have fresh lamb or beef meat, you can customize your burger and it’s cooked on order.
Amazing farm to table experience.

An incredible drive to arrive at the Ulupalakua ranch. Some very unique gifts in the general store and in house made goodies. Then, a must do will be enjoying locally raised beef, lamb and only raised elk herd in the state of Hawaii, burgers. Great views to enjoy while eating.
