Tin Roof<\/h3>\n

Standing in the parking lot outside of Tin Roof, you\u2019d never guess that the mirrored windows hold some of the island\u2019s best food.<\/p>\n

Recently opened by Sheldon Simeon\u2014the chef behind restaurants like Star Noodle and Migrant\u2014this humble hideout in Kahului brings gourmet flare to traditional lunch plates at prices that don\u2019t break $10. Order a bowl of Mochiko chicken and a side of ulu<\/em> mac salad, and consider taking the food to go since seating is limited inside.<\/p>\n

Set in a soulless Kahului strip mall off traffic-packed Dairy Road, the restaurant doesn\u2019t even have a sign to let you know that it\u2019s there. Turns out that they never needed one\u2014the restaurant was already packed out the door on the very first morning it opened. Just look for the large, mirror windows to the left of Payday Loans and right of a shop named U\u2018i Gallery in the same parking lot as Pi\u00f1atas.<\/p>\n

*Note: Tin Roof has since acquired signage.<\/p>\n

Taverna – Urban Drinks, Italian Eats<\/h3>\n

All the way up in Kapalua<\/a>, the Filipino flare of Tin Roof is swapped for the Italian ambience of Taverna, a \u201cneighborhood restaurant\u201d with Italian classics beneath the Kapalua pines. Dip your bread in olive oil that\u2019s made right here on Maui, or slurp the savory bounty of the ocean with a succulent seafood salad. Add a selection of craft beers and a menu of wines by the glass, and Taverna is a welcome\u2014and affordable\u2014addition to often high-priced Kapalua.<\/p>\n

The Mill House<\/h3>\n

On Maui\u2019s farm to table front, The Mill House restaurant at the Tropical Plantation is serving up plates of innovative food with items grown here on the farm. Not only is produce spectacularly fresh but is sometimes delivered down from the fields by a drone\u2014rather than a truck\u2014so the chef can call in small batch orders of produce almost on demand. Try the gnocchi with mac nut pesto or lemongrass pork bahn mi, though the menu often changes by the day to ensure the freshest selection.<\/p>\n

808 on Main<\/h3>\n

Also in Wailuku is 808 on Main, an explosively popular panini shop that pumps out artisanal sandwiches\u2014all of which are at modest prices that fit with old school Wailuku. It\u2019s the perfect spot for a casual lunch on the drive to \u02bbIao Valley<\/a>, and try the chicken mango chutney, served with Pepperjack on sourdough.<\/p>\n

Hana Ranch Provisions<\/h3>\n

Finally, as if Pa\u02bbia wasn\u2019t already packed with a plethora of popular food choices, the scene just got stronger and a little bit fancier with the opening of Hana Ranch Provisions. Using food that\u2019s certified organic and sourced from Hana Ranch, the restaurant pairs it with house-made bread and produce from local farmers. The result is dishes like the endlessly popular ulu<\/em> and sweet potato gnocchi, and carnivores will crave the Hana Burger, which is topped with a tangle of caramelized onions and a twist of horseradish aioli. Package it up in a brioche bun, and eating grass fed, Hana Ranch beef has never tasted so good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
