This place is great and you can use your room charge for it. If you were staying at the hotel I consistently had the mahi-mahi and my husband had the Poké bowl which we both loved. Service was good. The ambience is a nice bohemian beachy vibe and they often have live music. read more

Ambiance and staff is nice. Casual romantic place to eat along the resort. Cocktails are good food is and portion size is good. Half size of the ahi tuna salad was perfect for me but unfortunately too salty and a little too citrusy for me. But had a lot of tuna in it! Also love the wontons. Burger was good. Taste that fire grilled. Overall a decent place. read more

Place is filthy. Chairs are old and never dusted off, you will find bird poop on your chair so don't be surprised because I warned you.. floors are trashed with crayons and wrappers and food. Table is sticky and food stuck in the cracks, menu is faded can hardly see what's a the drink menu... I can go on and on and on. The best one was when me and my kids saw a RAT running across the floor the whole dinner back and forth in the bushes, I couldn't finish my food after that. Really shows the cleanliness of the restaurant, will not be returning. read more

The lady wearing a green shirt had horrible customer service. I don't know who this lady is but I believe she is a manager or lead for the place. She saw we were customers and needed help. Directed us to the hostess stand but there was nobody there. She could see this but she did nothing. Ended up sitting near the bar and I got all the food and drinks from the bartender myself because there was nobody serving us. read more

Great spot to grab lunch or dinner. We sat by the water and enjoyed fish tacos and poke bowls. Food was tasty and satisfying with a cold beer. No waiting and the whales spouting made our lunch time even better. Westin's new remodel has paid off and the property was a joy to visit. They are offering good rates for locals with all sorts of perks. Check it out and you'll want to make this place your regular staycation with the ohana.,. We will be back in a few months to celebrate again. Cheers! read more

This place was great. It was steps away from our hotel room and the beach with huge tvs, great service (thanks Lupe) and even live music. We had a card for a complimentary champagne toast as it was our honey moon so we decided to use it as well as try out their food. We ordered the ahi poke nachos, fish tacos chicken karaage and an order of spring rolls. We left full and satisfied. read more

For our first night in Maui we took our family of 6 to this restaurant and it was beyond terrible. First, I grabbed my chair and got bird poop all over my hand. Secondly we ordered our kids the kids meal and the it comes with the salad. The lettuce was slimy, old and gross. Their carrots were bendable meaning they were not fresh. My ahi nachos were tasteless and the fish felt slimy. My husband's poke bowl had no flavor. We sent the kids salads and carrots aback and what we got back was even worse. At this point we all lost our appetite. There needs to be better quality control here. As a chef, know what you're putting in a plate. As a server, inspect the food before serving it. To make things worse, we got the wrong bill which was way more than what we had ordered. Such a disappointment. read more

Sean at the bar is wonderful! He suggested a fun place called Pineapple Robot and we had a blast! I ate the poke nachos with the poke on the side as I have an allergy. They have corn tortillas but they came out with delicious gluten packed crisps that I could not enjoy. The waiter said they use tamari in the poke but we will see! I'm not sure how GF this is but it's my feeding time so I'm eating in slight fear. I did t eat too much as it wasn't as fresh as my arrogant tastebuds. Just next door at Ulu you can have the clams or macadamia crusted fish and it's 100% safe! I know because I ate them (; read more

Was staying at the Westin for my recent birthday vacation (visiting from O'ahu) and figured for our first night, we should check out this restaurant. We didn't have reservations and upon arriving at the host stand, the female hostess was snobby and did not want to help us and instead, the male host sat us down at a communal table with ottermans for seats. We didn't feel like crouching down to eat so I went back to ask if we could sit at the bar. We moved to the bar and ordered from the bartender; I got the lobster roll and my husband ordered the poke nachos. We realized there was a musician playing and wanted to move closer to the music. So I decided to go back to the host stand and ask if we could get on the list for a table close to the musician. The female host proceeded to snob me WHILE she drinks from her hydroflask. The male host stated to me that since we ordered our food already, we are not allowed to sit on a table since those tables have servers too. He also had an attitude. I asked very nicely and felt that they thought I was interrupting their deep conversations. The male host reluctantly stated that the tables open up after 9:30pm. Management really needs to school these two on how to talk to guests with more respect. This was on 11/14/25, approx. 8pm. As local kama'aina, we expected more but those two failed miserably. After we finished eating our food, we closed out our tab and moved by the musician. Needless to say, we were nicely greeted by a waitress who asked if she can get us anything. This place could be so much more but our experience with the front of the house was enough for us to not return during our trip. On the flip side, the lobster roll was really good whereas the poke nachos was okay. There's so much more dining options within the Westin's vicinity with great service AND food, like Leilani's Beach Bar (at Leilani's on The Beach) so we would not recommend this place BUT if you want a good lobster roll, this is the place to have it. read more

The ambiance setting is beautiful inside the hotel. Especially the live music. The drinks wee good. We got chicken wings and chicken Cesar salad. It was good but the price wasn't worth it. The staff was very friendly. read more

Beautiful setting. My gin/elderflower/lime cocktail mostly tasted like gin. Service friendly but they didn't know how to course: entree came before apps, sent it back. Then 20 minutes later all food (apps + entrees arrived together). Fish: fine. Mashed potatoes: good. Coconut cake: huge and good (good is below amazing and delicious in my vocab but still worth getting if you like coconut lol). Have been choosing to eat elsewhere during my trip even though this is at my hotel. My kids really like it here and have eaten here a lot. But I'm reviewing for myself! read more

7/3/24 My husband and I came here for lunch. We shared the vegetable spring rolls. The rolls were nice and crispy but slightly doughy on the inside. The sweet and sour dipping sauce was tasty but typical. I really enjoyed the lobster roll. The lobster was buttery and not over sauced in mayo and the portions were very filling. It came with fries which were crispy and typical. My husband ordered the vegetable yakisoba noodles. They too were tasty but could have used more vegetables and less pickled ginger. We were seated near the walkway over looking the beach. There was a family playing soccer right near our seats which was slightly distracting but overall the view of the ocean was pleasant. Service was adequate, although somewhat slow but that's to be expected in Maui. read more

Stayed at the Westin and ate at Hale Mo'olelo twice. Entry is right next to the pool - huge bar, TVs, and nice beachy (some sand) area overlooking the water. Had a nice view of the sunset. Drinks were good - Had the poke nachos which were quite good, and the chicken karaage which we both liked. Kids had kids meals which were so-so, the veggies were actually not good, I didn't even try to get them to eat them. Had live music, overall atmosphere was great, we enjoyed it and ate there twice (but no kids meal the second time). It is not cheap, but kind of what you expect for this area and the Westin. read more

We took our family to Easter brunch. The location is great and the food really good. A little pricey but to be expected

So besides the crazy swarm of knats that attacked us as soon as we walked in, Hale Mo'olelo is a very cute, trendy outdoor restaurant that can be found beach front at the Westin Hotel. Loved the modern aesthetics while still maintaining the island vibes. The food was absolutely delicious, would definitely recommend trying the wings appetizer. These wings were cooked to crispy perfection, sprinkled with a dry rub that provided just the right amount of spiciness to them. If you're looking for good service, paired with good food and a beautiful sunset view during dinner, then I would recommend Hale Mo'olelo for you! read more

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff, setting a positive tone for our experience. After a long flight, we were pleased that the food arrived in a timely manner, satisfying our hunger. A particularly delightful aspect of this venue is the live music, with a performer serenading guests with beautiful songs, enhancing the dining atmosphere. The ambiance in the evening is romantic, with dim lighting creating an intimate setting. The customer service was exceptional, especially from Gio. We look forward to our next visit. read more

The Mai Tai here was on point (and apparently award winning). Cocktails were balanced, refreshing. Jenna was fantastic. Super friendly bartender/mixologist. Made us feel really welcome. Also, it's open til nearly 11 (which is late for Maui for a nicer cocktail), so we made it out nightcap spot for the week every night after we found it. Jerry was also great friendly, very welcoming. read more

Came to Hale Mo'elelo because we didn't get to the hotel until 7 pm and had a hotel credit that we had to burn. Plus we didn't want to go anywhere else after travelling all day. All I can say is...how does this place have such a high rating? We had $100 of hotel credit to burn, so we got the Thai Sticky Wings to share, Auntie's Coconut Curry with added shrimp, and Tempura Fish Tacos. The Thai Sticky Wings were fine, I liked the sauce on them and the wings were pretty big. But the entrées? Man, these just were not very good. The coconut curry was extremely bland, I don't think I've ever had a more flavorless curry in my life. And the fish tacos were highly questionable. Mahi mahi by itself isn't the right fish to use for fish tacos, but I've had mahi mahi tacos that were passable. The batter on this was flat out terrible. No flavor at all. We couldn't even finish the tacos. If I had actually paid money for this, I would have been pretty furious. Service was fine, no complaints on this front. Again, I'm not sure how this place has such a high rating. Very bland food. You can literally go anywhere else on this side of Maui and get way better food for your money. read more

Contrary to the yelp status this restaurant is open! It's feb 2024. Restaurant is located in the Westin resort. Beachside seating and covered but open outdoor seating too. Food is delicious here! The fries are exceptional. They arrive hot and they're super crispy. There's got to be a special seasoning layer that makes them this crispy. The chicken karaage is so good too. It's a type of Japanese fried chicken nugget with tasty seasoning. The Kobe burger comes with fresh veggies like sliced onions and fresh green lettuce. We grabbed a seat closest to the ocean and the views with the backdrop of the picturesque resort was just perfect. Food is resort prices and to be expected but it's not much more expensive than non resort places we visited for food on the island. Local drink favorites that aren't on the menu: Lava flow which is a pina colada with strawberry Miami vice which is a blended strawberry daiquiri mixed with pina colada, and a pineapple slice to boot! You get 20% with your Westin vacation club card for dine in food. It's a card we got at check in at the Westin and I think it's part of the Bonvoy Marriott perks. read more

Came during the week and enjoyed the 5-10pm live music. Menu has a good selection of food, albeit the battered fish tacos were a little soggy. Great view of the sunset and ocean. The adult drink choices are many and pretty good. Fairly quick service and amicable staff. Highly recommend booking a table at least a day in advance if not longer. Overall great experience, next to the outdoor mall. read more

I shouldn't have come, I should have come, I shouldn't have come! I stayed at the Westin Maui Resort at Ka'anapali and was given a voucher to spend on each stay so I decided to grab some crab cake, oysters and a dessert with my boyfriend to end our second evening in Maui. The crab cake was flat and dry and the oyster was filled with wakame and ponzu sauce so I didn't get much of the oyster taste. Around midnight, three to four hours after eating at Hale Mo'olelo, my boyfriend and I woke up to a severe case of food poisoning. We were both up in the bathroom for over 8 hours, couldn't even go out to buy medicine or get anything for our pain. I notified the front desk and they did nothing to help, afterall we got sick from one of their restaurants. Luckily, my boyfriend and I were able to place a couple orders on doordash for some charcoal pills, water, Gatorade, and food that we could barely touch. This was my first time getting food poisoned and I didn't go to the hospital hoping that we would get better. I had to cancel our submarine tour and luau during our third day in Maui and our flight was the following day. We have eaten oysters so many times before and had never gotten sick once. It was unfortunate, that we had to experience this during our short trip to Maui. read more

We absolutely love this place! Our first visit was to redeem the free welcome drinks from our hotel, but we ended up coming back for more. While relaxing by the pool, we enjoyed their poolside drink and food service and ordered the poke and lobster roll. Both dishes were absolutely delicious--some of the best food we've had in the area. The convenience, combined with the quality of the food, made this a memorable experience. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Hale Mo'olelo - Pina Colada - Music Venues Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

If you're a tourist... this is a tourist trap! I used to live in Honolulu for years so my standards for local foods are probably higher than a typical tourist visiting the Hawaiian islands.. It is located at the Westin and looks nice but the food is awful... we ordered the North Shore Garlic Shrimp since the server even insisted that it's really good and "local style". The shrimp had no hint of garlic at all. It was just fried shrimp that was similar to coconut shrimp. The rice is drenched in aioli and disgusting. Also, my rice had blue fluff in it! I brought it up the guy collecting our plates who seemed like he could care less even after I showed him the blue stuff in my food. The waiter Ray (or Roy?) came back to ask about it so I told him there was blue fluff and he said "I will tell the manager about it" but still handed me the bill charging the garlic shrimp... pretty disappointing. read more

Hale Mo'olelo - "North shore garlic shrimp" but it was bad - Music Venues Near Me - Lahaina, Hawaii

Drinks are pretty decent, but the food is disappointing. We had wanted to order the lobster roll without the aioli, but they said it wasn't possible as the lobster is premixed with it "like tuna salad." So instead we ordered the Caesar salad with shrimp and the ahi poke nachos. The salad had three large shrimp in it and were the best part. The dressing didn't really taste like a normal Caesar and it just didn't taste fresh. The ahi poke nachos were overwhelmingly sauced and it just wasn't a pleasant mix. Definitely wouldn't eat the food again. read more
