You’ve also got to get your picture taken. It’s right on the beach so you’ll get to witness those impressive north shore waves up close. You check in at the podium out front and then make your way down to the property. The restaurant has complimentary valet right out front which really sets the tone. You’ll want to check the time of sunset during your trip, I recommend making your reservation about thirty minutes before so it’s still light when you arrive. So reserve early! To be on the safe side, I grabbed a reservation about three months in advance so I could get the exact time I wanted. Christmas), it’s not uncommon for them to be completely booked up. Since it’s such a hot spot, you NEED a reservation. Mama’s Fish House is located on Maui’s north shore just past Paia so if you’re staying in the resort areas on Maui’s west or south sides, it’s going to be a bit of a drive.

Full disclosure-although I’m reviewing my latest experience at Mama’s, I’ve been there over a half dozen times so I’ll be pulling form past experiences as well. So on my last trip to Maui, I headed to Mama’s (oh the life of a travel blogger!) for the express purpose of doing a full review for you peeps. So I figured since it’s easily the most popular special occasion spot on Maui, and it generates so much debate, it deserves its own blog post. But to my surprise, there’s always a handful of responders who say “yeah it was really nice, but not worth the money.” Or “We didn’t get the hype at all.” The majority of people always assure the question asker that yes, it is indeed worth it. Thank you for supporting the brands that make the Lincoln Travel Co possible.įrom time to time, in my private Facebook group, the question gets asked “if it’s worth it.” Is it really worth the hype? Everybody is telling me to go, but is it actually a tourist trap? Or is there somewhere else that’s better for the money? But of course, I only recommend my absolute favorites to you. This post may contain some affiliate links, which means I’ll make a little money on anything you choose to purchase. It’s not a “hidden gem” or an out of the way place that nobody knows about. Ask 100 people who’ve been to Maui where’s the one place you should go for dinner and 95 of them will say Mama’s. It’s easily the most recommendable special occasion restaurant on the island. This is my “if I only get one day on Maui, how would I spend it list.”Īnd at the top of that list has always been dinner at Mama’s Fish House. Not necessarily the list I throw out to every reader or traveler who asks for tips. But the list you really want is my “short” list. Maui is my favorite Hawaiian Island and easily the island I know best (I used to live there). When asked for my list of must dos on Maui, I can provide you with endless things to do, see, and places to eat.

As of now, all of the info in this post should be unaffected.

I’ll keep this updated as the situation progresses.

Even though the return of tourism for the economy is largely necessary, your compassion and kindness during your interactions go a long way. 4) Locals on the island (both those personally affected and not) are grieving this tragedy and likely will be for a long time to come. 3) The rest (majority) of the island is unaffected and open to visitors.

2) The resort areas of West Maui north of Lahaina (Ka’anapali, Napili & Kapalua) are undamaged from the fires and are scheduled to fully reopen to tourism on October 8, 2023.

Here’s what you need to know: 1) Lahaina is almost completely gone and the area is 100% off limits to visitors. This post was written before devastating wildfires swept through the historic town of Lahaina in early August 2023.
