Excellent fish and flavor. We have eaten at higher-end restaurants on all the major islands, and Havens was easily in our top five; best we had in Maui without question. Their fish is locally-caught—unlike some other restaurants in the area—and was perfectly cooked. What really set Havens apart was their flavors. Each component of every dish had a bold wonderful flavor without being overpowering or heavy. The ginger scallion slaw and chili jus broth on the kona kanpachi and the lemongrass marinade topping and kabocha squash on the opakapaka catch of the day were the highlights of the meal.

View was simple, but nice. A street-level restaurant overlooking boats in a marina. Area was clean and bright and the waitstaff were genuinely cheerful and helpful—there when needed without hovering.

Tables around us were eating burgers and tomahawk steaks, and I’m sure they were also great, but this is Hawai’i. If there’s any time to order the fish, it’s here; especially at Havens. My only complaint was that the remaining dinners on our trip became less enjoyable since they didn’t live up to the amazing flavors of Havens.

Maui World Travelers
Haven’s started out with a small takeaway counter in Kihei which has since closed. They still have a food truck in Kahului and this latest brick & mortar in Ma’alaea’s Maui Harbor Shops.

ATMOSPHERE:
They’ve taken over the former Beach Bums spot on the lower level. It’s a spacious, open air eatery with a lively beach house vibe and has great views of the harbor and Haleakala.

RESERVATIONS:
Recommended as they were pretty busy on this particular Sunday night.

PARKING:
Free for kama’aina but a fee for everyone else. After 5pm it’s free for all.

DINNER MENU:
American & Italian.

BEVERAGE:
La Perouse
I’m guessing this is their version of a mule, which while tasty, didn’t have a strong fizziness from the ginger beer.

FOOD:
Brussels Sprouts
I normally wouldn’t order this common app but it sounded good tonight, and tasted even better than I had imagined. No drizzle or sauce needed with its trifecta of sweet, savory and char flavors.

Chelsea Farm Clams
The delicate, savory broth was heavenly, with added smokiness from the Portuguese sausage slivers.

Garlic Butter Fries
Nom! The world’s best fries have been crowned.

Local Romaine Caesar
A baby romaine caesar is few and far between nowadays. This version sported a more tangy dressing with light creaminess.

Crispy Kanpachi Roll
I’m not a sushi fan but this was insanely good. The rice to filling ratio was perfect as well.

Local Style Mahi
No kanpachi was available so mahi it was. Whenever I see fish done in a shoyu broth, it’s an automatic order for me. I was surprised at the plating as the fish was presented in a bowl. But, it was necessary as the fish sat in a pool of the gingery, savory and tart broth, topped with sea asparagus (sea beans) and ogo (seaweed).

House-made Rigatoni
The bite I had was very tasty and the homemade pasta was cooked perfectly.

SERVICE:
My only gripe was the food delivery timing as the entrées came out while we were still enjoying the apps which crowded the table.

Male server was okay and checked on us once.

OVERALL:
Average pricing, flavorful everything, good portion sizes. Highly recommended!

An absolutely dreamy happy hour spent here on Sunday. Tuna nachos were UNREAL delicious and check out the whales I saw in the bay right from my table!!!! Great service, great vibe, i waited for a table with a gentleman who was negotiating the sale of a daily caught whole fish! Two pounds!!! So cool that they have this offering. I would definitely come back with a group to try some of their bigger seafood and bbq dishes, or maybe just order 4 more portions of the nachos

We tremendously enjoyed Haven’s for Christmas Eve with the prix fixe menu. Havens is a relatively new hidden gem with incredibly delicious dishes and fabulous service. Lisja, who was our culinary guide, highlighted fine details of each dish well beyond just what was listed on the menu. Exceptional in every way!

My husband had the ahi tataki and was thoroughly impressed. The ahi was super fresh and the sauce had just the right amount of heat with a beautiful depth of flavor. Absolutely excellent.

For my main entree, I had the Colorado Lamb Chops. They were prepared with a marcona almond crust and paired with fabulous caramelized Maui onion potato purée. The date chutney added so much to the lamb chops, I just couldn’t stop saying, wow!

My husband is a self described scallop connoisseur. In most fine dining restaurants, if scallops are on the menu, he orders them. He has had this exact preparation before at Havens, as it was recommended by another one of their excellent servers. Not only did it not disappoint, he proclaimed these are consistently the BEST scallops he’s ever had. PERIOD. BAR NONE. And, he is comparing these to scallop dishes he’s had at Per Se, The French Laundry, Herb & Wood, Huso, La Mar (Lima), Osaka (Lima) and many more fine dining juggernauts. He’s throwing out these names to hopefully impress upon anyone reading this how magical this dish is.

We finished with one of each of the desserts. While both were excellent, the lilikoi vanilla bean meringue tart was the star of the show. A perfect way to wrap up a perfect Christmas Eve celebration.

While Haven’s is a 20-30+ minute drive for people coming from Wailea, West Maui or Paia, it is absolutely worth it! Hence them winning the 2025 ‘Aipono Awards Best New Restaurant on Maui and Chef of the Year for Chef Zach Sato. By the way, we’re going back for NYE. Can’t wait!

This was our last Maui dinner. Went on Monday evening at about 530 pm. Recommended by our whale watch tour guide. It is in the old BBQ place with a great location on Ma’alea Harbor.

It is a great place, great location with patio seating snd indoor seating. The views from the patio seating and the hugh top tables were great.

We did walk in and it was hit or miss. They said they were very busy with “big parties”. We did get a high top by the bar. It was INCREDIBLY noisy. It was fine becuase we did not have reservations. We knew we would be limited.

We did not get placesettings without asking. No water without asking.

Server was great. Knew the menu and offered great recommendations. We got our appetizers (waygu croquettes) before getting any place setting or silverware. We also had to ask for salt and pepper but it was fresh ground so that made up for it. The manager was super friendly abd nice and seemed to be paying attention to us and the other high tops near us. She was

There was a LONG wait between appetizer and meals. My hubs got the waygu filet and it was amazing. I did the red prawn malfedine, which was great! Noodles made in house. The food was great and tasted phenomenal. It is per course pricing and we did not see a kids menu. There is a bar and a large liquor list. I got a strawberry lemonade that was okay.

We had to ask for refills on water. The server seemed more interested in the men at the bar.

It is paid parking at the harbor. But we knew that as well. It was somewhat hard to find a spot on a Monday evening.

My recommendations:

Ambience 4/5…very noisy. We couldn’t hear each other. Maybe install some sound proofing on the ceiling.
Service 3/5…this is where I was disappointed with the slowness and having to ask for things. Management please have the employees pay attention to details. It is what matters. Anticipating customers needs goes a LONG way.
Food 5/5….it was great! Taste was awesome. The menu seemed somewhat limited.
Pricing 3/5…was somewhat overpriced but I get it it is Hawaii.

I would recommend for adults, I would not take children here.

Keep up the great work we will be back!!

Honest 3.5 ⭐️’s but not quite 4 overall. While the service members were nice, they were not overly attentive from the host to our waitress. Took 5 minutes for the host to even acknowledge us at the front podium and our waitress just didn’t explain much about the food choices nor did she visit our table just to check in. All that said, the food was ok, but not worth $19 for just a burger (no fries) and relatively small plate of Salmon for $35. The prices on the online menu also didn’t match the table menu prices (we ate here at 1PM). What we walked away with was overall disappointment.

Tourist trap??? Maybe, but we won’t be back.

Wow! Best dinner we had in Maui. We heard about Haven being voted Best New Restaurant in Maui when we did our helicopter trip with Air Maui. Boy they were right. We had the fish of the day – spectacular and the greens with it were so good. We also had the smash burger – not your regular burger – great sauce and the Parmesan Garlic fries are awesome. The Carmel and Salt Chocolate cake was so good too! Sitting on the outside deck after a day on the beach made for a perfect night! This was better than we thought possible. So good!

Great spot in Maalaea Bay! Nice big patio overlooking the marina with stylish decor without being pretentious. We stopped in for happy hour (3-4:30pm daily) and enjoyed beers and mai tais (dare I say better than the Monkeypod mai tai) and fish tacos which were up there in the top fish tacos of all time (huge chunk of fish, made with pacific blue marlin). Our server Tim was very attentive and could sell sand to the beach, which was why we stayed for a second drink. Vibe was nice and relaxed, Maalaea can be such a ghost town but the restaurant was maybe like 1/3 full on a Saturday around 4pm.

We didn’t have any reservations to this beautiful restaurant, but we’re able to be assisted as walk in guests. The ambience is outstanding. The view can’t beat overlooking the harbor, South Kihei and of course beautiful Haleakala. The food is beyond Ono (delicious.) The flavors, food presentation as we locals like to say, “Broke the Mouth!” The friendly services from the hostess, our waiter Scott, the manager 100% extraordinary. I truly recommend this establishment a must try. ❤️

This was my second visit to Haven’s, and once again, I had a great experience. On my first visit, I had the Smashburger — easily one of the best I’ve had. On our return, we went for the Tomahawk steak and scallops. Both were absolutely delicious.

The atmosphere is a standout, with a beautiful view of the harbor at sunset that really elevates the experience.

Service was excellent — the staff is friendly and attentive, checking in often. The only small suggestion there is to give guests a bit more space between check-ins, as too many can interrupt the flow of conversation between guests.

The drink selection was solid. Cocktails and wines were well chosen, and I really liked the beer selection — a nice change from the usual big-brand lineup. I’d still love to see more non-alcoholic options added down the line.

If I had one other note, it’s that prices feel a bit high for a newer restaurant, especially compared to some well-established spots on Maui. That said, the quality is clear, and Haven’s has real potential. Wishing the team all the best — I’m looking forward to seeing how they grow.
