Join us for New Year’s Eve 2023 for MALA’s WHITE PARTY! We’ll be celebrating oceanfront, and we’re going to be fancy! Wear your White and get ready to party! The Garden will have an open air tent and the SILENT DISCO dance party will be outside! Tickets include; entry, passed pupus, champagne toast, complimentary photos, and more!

With predecessor, local Chef Alvin Savella leaving Mala Ocean Tavern to start new sister restaurant Duckine, the MALA owners were able to turn to Sous Chef Kalei Ducheneau and Back of House Administrator Kate Ducheneau to maintain the quality and innovation that MALA has been known for.

We are so proud to announce and name Lisa Kerrick as General Manager at Māla Ocean Tavern.  Lisa comes to MĀLA with years of experience in the restaurant industry, enthusiasm for a career in the food and beverage, and the drive to continue to maintain MĀLA as a favorite in dining for locals and guests of Lahaina, Maui.

We extend our gratitude to our staff for all their hard work, to everyone who continues to support our businesses, and to everyone who voted for us! It is wonderful to be among all of the talent on the island of Maui and in Hawaii. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners.  All of the great restaurants on Maui encourage us to strive to always be our absolute best! 

Mala Ocean Tavern is host to guests from all over the world, and we appreciate those who share their oceanfront dining experience with others. Maricris Lapaix documented her experience at MALA during her travels to Maui featured them on her Travel Vlog. Check out her video and get travel tips for when you are on the island. We hope you join us for Brunch, Happy Hour, Dinner, or Late Night soon at MALA. All you need is aloha!
