All available tables can be reserved above through the OpenTable App.

Mala is an intimate, boutique oceanfront restaurant. Due to our limited layout, we are unable to accommodate dinner reservations for parties larger than eight guests.

Parties larger than eight may be accommodated through a private buyout of one of our event spaces:

• The Ocean Room (up to 14 guests)
• The Lanai (up to 30 guests)
• Full restaurant buyouts are also available

For all buyout inquiries, please contact Ingrid directly at Ingrid@malatavern.com.

Larger groups are also welcome to join us for brunch or happy hour, when we have greater seating flexibility.

We have a 24 hour cancellation policy.

Mahalo for dining at Mala Ocean Tavern. We appreciate your support during this challenging period and  kindly request that you avoid inquiring about the Lahaina Wildfires to our staff, who have all been personally affected. Our primary focus is on extending aloha to our community and our visitors. Your understanding and respect for all is greatly appreciated. Mahalo nui loa.
