A lunch at Hali'imaile is always a treat. We love the spacious, nicely decorated atmosphere, the friendly service and the creative dishes. It's well worth the drive from west Maui where we always take our vacation.
Hali'imaile General Store, a staple of Upcountry Maui since 1988, is a must-visit for any visitor to the island. This renowned Hawaiian restaurant offers a taste of the island's finest cuisine in a setting that exudes old-world charm. With its convenient location near the town of Makawao and on the road to Haleakalā National Park, Hali'imaile General Store is the perfect place to stop for a delicious meal and experience the true spirit of aloha. Open 7 days a week! Be sure to visit our neighbors and make a day of it! Makai Glass, Maui Pineapple Tours & Hali'imaile Distillery.

About the restaurant: Surrounded by pineapple fields in cool upcountry Maui, 30 minutes from the resorts at Wailea, this charming and authentically rustic store is where Joe and Beverly Gannon started their own delicious style of Hawaii Regional cuisine. In 2022, the restaurant was sold to Gather Restaurant Group. The delightful country atmosphere boasts an open kitchen and floor-to-ceiling shelves stocked with giftwares. The large old rooms provide a lively atmosphere in which to dine. The copper bar, the artwork and the giant, tropical floral arrangements are pleasing. Food & Drinks: Sophisticated tourists love to make the scenic drive to feast on sashimi napoleon, boboli pizza with her secret crab-dip topping, and lovely fresh grilled seafood. Sophisticated locals flock there as well. A favorite is paniolo ribs, meaty pork ribs served with a unique barbecue sauce, creamy garlic mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables. The wine list is filled with attractive, inexpensive and well-selected bottlings. For dessert, try the chocolate macadamia nut pie.
