I had the opportunity to volunteer with Maui Cultural Lands the Saturday I was in Maui, and after volunteering clearing invasive plant species from a discovered archeological site (the purpose of the program), I was obviously quite hungry! Aa Roots was not too far north from where I was, so I came here for lunch. In addition to the Vegan Ceasar Salad, I "splurged" by getting some local kombucha (with a unique flavor profile at that, as it contained blue spirulina!). The staff seemed very friendly and I the seating area was very cozy. For one person, lunch was pricey but standard for the island. If I lived here, this would probabaly be my go-to spot! read more

I'm usually hesitant about vegan places, but my mom is a vegetarian, which means there aren't that many options for her in Hawaii. We called in the order ahead of time, and it was ready pretty quickly. Parking is easy in the shopping plaza. We got a curry rice bowl, which had a vegetable based curry over white rice. Vegan food is hard, so I appreciate their efforts. Note: closed Wednesdays. read more

My rating is more due to inconsistency of service more than the taste. I got their mango bowl which tasted phenomenal. I ordered this twice in our five day stay in Lahaina. This place aims to be eco-friendly, which I get. They charge $2 additional for any takeout order. My bowl was charged two different prices by two different cashiers which didn't give me the best impression. The first time I was charged $15 for the mango bowl and the second time it was $18 and adding the takeout fee so I felt like it was a different experience each time I went. Great food, just wish they were more predictable with charges. read more

Relaxed shabby chic vibe. Great vegan food choices. Eat in or outside. They do prefer cash. If you are doing pick up they you 19% off if you bring your own container.

Aa Roots is a great place to visit when you feel like having all-vegan meals. They have cool bohemian and relaxing vibes. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They now have some locally grown (green onions, limes, yams, etc.) that are left out front for you to pick up for a small donation. They also have great acai, smoothies, and fresh fruit juices too. read more

4.5 stars The food was fresh and the service was outstanding. I ordered the naked burrito and it turned out to be an orgy of flavors in my mouth the ingredients were fresh and the food was prepared with lots of aloha. I also ordered the cane juice. Man, the juice had the right amount of lime juice and I poured it over ice. Man, it was nature's flavors bursting in my mouth. The restaurant was clean and provided a definite aloha atmosphere. read more

Aa Roots Maui - Papaya Açaí bowl, great start to the morning. - Vegan Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

Says they are open on all online sources and even says on their storefront door closed on Wednesdays. Well they weren't open today (Thursday) and there was no updates online nor a notice on the store front. Just simply closed on a day of stated operation with no information or reasoning. Could have saved myself a drive and some time had I known. **UPDATE** Having finally been able to try the acai bowls here after my disappointment prior I can speak to the quality of the food, and I would say its fresh and great ingredients making up their bowls; way more to a bowl than I'm used to. For this reason I will reflect that aspect alone in my updated rating. read more

Best vegetarian breakfast I've ever had!! We had a breakfast taco special, and it was absolutely wonderful.

This was probably the best acai I had on the island; the cocoa nibs really brought the whole bowl together. The ginger and turmeric smoothie was surprisingly filling. The bagel sandwich was okay, but I highly recommend the acai bowls and smoothies. Really cute and warm ambiance. read more

This place was amazing! I normally don't like healthy food, but here I could barely notice that it was healthy at all (in a good way)! The service was nice and everyone was so kind to us, explaining nicely if we asked for the ingredients in a dish. Its ambiance was calm and homely, as everything was comfortable, and to our liking. All the seats are cushioned and pillowed, making it seem like I was at home. Overall, all seven of us loved the food and experience. The food is healthy and filling, as well as large portion sizes and living up to its prices. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend!! read more

yes all the pictures are of the same salad. it's very good. but i've notified over time that before they used to give more kale which is the base of the salad and a normal amount of carrots and cabbage as the "filler" but now they have over half of the salad as the "filler" stuff and not much of the actual salad part-the kale. nonetheless it's a great salad and if you add avocado it is amazing. wish it was a little cheaper tho. $20 is kinda crazy read more

ALL VEGAN RESTAURANT Gotta give props to my all vegan peeps. Y'all, this restaurant is the real deal. Very friendly staff. Fresh tasty food. Fast service. No complaints! Their dining room was closed when we stopped by for breakfast on a Sunday. We were a little worried about the line to order but the guy out front was friendly and efficient. When it was our turn it was obvious we were out of towners and had no clue what to get. He provided some great recommendations. I got the avocado toast. The toast was nice and crispy. The avocado spread was clearly fresh and not from a package. Loved the black sesame seeds! My husband got the Sunday Funday waffles with tofu scramble and veggie sausage. I was lucky he gave me a bite because that bite packed a lot of flavor. The waffles were like cups that were crispy and yummy, holding this treasure trove of delicious tofu scramble, pesto, and veggie sausage. One of the best things I've ever eaten. Very creative!!!! Then there is the cookie. Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE DESSERT! I pity the fool who messes up my dessert. But lemme tell you - this chocolate chip marshmallow cookie is my new BFF. AMAZING! I only wish I had bought every last one that they had. One was blissful but I am sitting back at my room at the resort wishing I had more. Major props to this restaurant. Flawless execution. If I could give 10/5 stars I would! read more

Lots of vegan options and the vibe was inviting. We walked in on a weekday late afternoon so they weren't busy at all. We ordered the deconstructed burrito, pitaya bowl with pineapple and waited for 15 mins before the food came out. Food - Presentation of the food all round was 5 stars. We were told the burrito would be somewhat warm, but it was cold. The sauce was flavorful but the quantity was so less than they themselves gave hot sauce when they served. The stinginess in the sauce really killed the taste of this bowl. I'd rate average at best. The pitaya bowl was presented to us without pineapples even though it was categorically mentioned that we'd take pineapples over it. On mentioning this, they take the bowl inside, add some chopped pineapples and bring it right back. The pitaya bowl was fresh. Please note - they DO NOT serve water, only bottled water and this is also only mentioned by the young female server there if you ask her for water. Service - The young female server wasn't friendly, wasn't making eye contact and for some reason looked away from us while talking to her. Apart from messing up the pitaya bowl order, she was trying to look SO busy that she forgot to ask anything after the food was served. The lady owner(?) on the other hand was the saving grace. Not impressed by the service here at all. I won't return since most of their hot food even comes out warm and the stinginess in the sauce really made me question how everything else would be. read more

Excellent food and hospitality. Will go back next time I visit Hawaii! Ambiance was cheerful and comfortable.

I was blown away from my first visit here in 2018 and swore that if I ever came back to Maui I would trek out to eat here again! The second time was pretty disappointing. First of all for a vegan cafe to use all disposable containers was really disappointing and made no sense to me. The portions this time around were minuscule compared to last time I was here. The price point was fine previously for the quality but now I feel I'm getting half of the food and half the quality for double the price. So bummed that I won't be back. read more
