Product Description
This book evolved from the popular download version which has guided thousands of Maui visitors in navigating America's most expensive place to eat out.

Their honest, take-no-prisoners review guide is written with the philosophy that people who love to eat and prefer not to waste money on bad food should know the truth about Maui's well-marketed dining scene. Top Maui Restaurants is packed with local insights and insider tips. Reading this book before and during your trip is like having a best friend in paradise who steers you away from the tourist traps and guides you to the real gems.

There are lots of good restaurants on Maui. But this book gives a great selection of the best ones, whether they are casual, local places or the priciest places on the island. With purchase of the book, you also have free access to the latest edition of their monthly updated website, so that you can check out any current changes.

• Maui By The Hour 09 November, 2008
We went to Maui with only breakfast and 2 dinner plans for the whole week. We studied the book before we left. We knew exactly what to expect before we ordered dinner anywhere. From the top onion rings at the Hyatt to the Bento box at Cascades, we were truly surprised at the quality.
A true value!

I have yet to go to Maui, but this book prevents a huge waste of time and money by eliminating the "blind" restaurant roulette game once you get there. A great supplement to more detailed activity slanted guide books. When I get back I'll know for sure, but it looks like a winner to me. The authors even provide an online supplement to keep you up to date. This clearly indicates to me they're in the biz for more than just the money. Highly recommended.

• Absolute Gem Of A Book! 15 September, 2008
We bought this book in early 2008 in anticipation of our 4 week trip to Maui in August. We've visited Maui twice in the past and could have used the book back then. We read the entire book before the trip, it was a fun read and got us really excited! We highlighted places we were interested in trying and we did not have one disappointing meal.
We cooked quite a few meals in our condo but the places we went to in between for breakfast, lunch and dinner were all good to sensational: Sansei (went 3 times, incredible food), Flatbread Company (best pizza we've ever had!), Cilantro Fresh Mexican Grill (we had the wonderful roasted chicken twice and the fish tacos), Seawatch for breakfast (very impressive and not too expensive, average $10 for breakfast but warning - watch out for the add-ons. Our son's $8.00 french toast turned into a $30 breakfast with extra sausage, strawberries and 2 glasses of juice. We did go back a second time and advised him not to say yes every time the server suggested something else to go with his meal.
Kihei Caffe (first morning upon arrival we woke up and checked the book for a breakfast suggestion. We were very happy and ended up going there twice, lots of food for excellent prices), Cafe Mambo - we tried the duck fajitas, thank you for recommending them, they were marvelous! Ma'alaea Waterfront Restaurant (fantastic dinner, wonderful view, superb service).
The book is organized alphabetically with the option at the front to search by different categories. Sometimes we wanted to look for a place by area such as Kihei or Kahalui and sometimes we'd just search for best breakfast, dinner, steak etc. It was extremely handy to have the address, phone number and hours of business listed at the end of each write-up. We didn't need to go searching in the phonebook! The updated PDF file of the book is a very thoughtful idea for customers.
We have recommended this book to several of our friends and we will be taking it with us on our next trip to Maui. It made our trip more relaxing not having to stress about finding places to eat and wondering if it's good or not. Plus the recommendations to try certain dishes were very helpful.
Great job James & Molly!
