“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

Many of Maui’s restaurants cater to wedding receptions and will work with you to develop a special menu for your guests. The recommended restaurants vary in ambiance and price, so you can choose the one best suited to your budget. Some also offer a buyout option for larger wedding receptions.

RESTAURANTS – West Side

Merriman’s Kapalua
Merriman’s is located on the cliffs between Kapalua Bay and Napili Bay, in Kapalua Resort, right next to the ocean, with a beautiful view of the tropical sunset from “The Point.” Chef-Owner Peter Merriman, with his unique style of Hawaiian Regional Cuisine, is a pioneer in the “Farm to Table” concept. Peter serves only the freshest products, of which at least 90% are locally grown or caught, using only sustainable methods. His international menu items are prepared in a manner that highlights the natural flavors of these fresh, local foods.

Duke’s Beach House honors renowned waterman and Hawaii’s most famous son, Duke Kahanamoku. He was an Olympic swimmer and the father of modern day surfing but he may be best known for sharing his genuine spirit of Aloha. Here just steps from the sand, you are treated to sweeping views of the Pacific framed by the islands of Molokai and Lanai along with a casual, nostalgic ambiance and a glimpse into the life of our namesake, Duke.

Located high above the Kapalua coastline sits The Plantation House Restaurant, a thoroughly modern blend of traditional plantation-style atmosphere, old-fashioned Hawaiian hospitality and the finest in island cuisine. Accommodates both large and small wedding parties.
