Mala Ocean Tavern Named One of OpenTable’s Top 100 Brunch Restaurants in America

We’re incredibly grateful to share that Mala Ocean Tavern has been recognized on OpenTable’s 2025 Top 100 Brunch Restaurants list, a nationwide collection celebrating the most loved brunch destinations across the country. This honor is based on millions of real diner reviews and reservation trends, making it especially meaningful because it comes directly from guests like you.

Being included among the top 100 brunch spots in the entire United States is something we do not take lightly. It reflects the care our kitchen team puts into every plate, the warmth our front-of-house staff brings to each table, and the community that continues to choose Mala for birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, and slow mornings that turn into lasting memories.

We want to extend a heartfelt mahalo to everyone who has joined us for brunch, shared kind words online, recommended us to friends, and made Mala part of their routine when they’re in Lahaina. Your support, especially over the past few years, has meant more to us than we can ever express.

This recognition only motivates us to keep raising the bar with thoughtful seasonal dishes, handcrafted cocktails, and the genuine hospitality that has defined Mala for over two decades. Whether you’re a longtime local or visiting Maui for the first time, we look forward to welcoming you back for many more mornings around our tables.

From all of us at Mala Ocean Tavern, thank you for helping us become one of the best brunch destinations in the country.
