Wow, what a wonderful little brewery (with fantastic views) tucked into Maui's beautiful Upcountry…read moreregion. I was only on the island for a few days, to help out at a Yelp Event, so I asked several local Elites for recommendations on must-dos while I was there. Several mentioned Mahalo Aleworks, so I made the lovely drive up on a sunny, breezy Saturday morning. This place definitely lived up to its reputation! With good beer (I tried the Mexican Lager and the Amber), ahhhhmazing views literally across the entire island, live music, and friendly service I can see why Mahalo came so highly recommended. I also loved the overall vibe of the place - light and bright, with a tiny little beer garden and both table and bar seating. If you go, don't miss their loft-like upstairs area, with its small balcony with sweeping views from Kahului to Kihei. The beer? Both were crispy and delish. I was kinda sad that the Mexican lager didn't come with a lime slice, but that's literally my only complaint.

Maui Kombucha is a kombucha bar in Haiku. It isn't all vegan, but it does have vegan food options…read more When I went in Feb 2025, the food menu comprised an eggless salad sandwich, avocado toast, a pesto quinoa wrap, and a fusion bowl. They also had 2 soups: corn chowder and carrot miso ginger soup. The kombucha menu consisted of the following: elderberry ginger, prickly pear, cherry lime, blackberry sage, guava lime, and kona. We ordered the eggless salad sandwich and guava lime kombucha. There was indoor seating or outdoor, and we chose outdoor. Both items were delicious. I should warn you that they put either wasabi or horseradish in their eggless salad and that is really something they should warn a person. But I did really like the locally made sourdough bread that they use. Getting to the bathroom is a hike so when you get the key, ask for detailed directions.

I ordered the blt & my husband ordered the pastrami sandwich with a side order of their house made pickles. I don't know what they do to their sandwiches but the sandwiches here taste like pure magic along with being pretty big in size. The BLT I would highly recommend this sandwich is flavorful & fresh. However, the real star of the show would be there pastrami sandwich, I'd recommend this one a hundred times over. I've never had pastrami as good what they serve here. Everything about this sandwich is perfect from the popping flavors to the way they cook the pastrami itself? You literally can't go wrong with this one. The house made pickles are also a must along with their kombucha they make themselves. Service is also extremely friendly which makes the experience that much better. Food comes out fast & hot. Location is easy to find & parking is a little limited but easy to navigate. Overall, great experience!

Let's get things straight: I used to love Alchemy. I'd dream about their sandwiches when I was…read moreoff-island. Drool over their Instagram pictures. Plan my next trip to Maui just so I could have another bite of their honey mustard pastrami. Well, today that dream came true...and it was a nightmare. Getting the sandwich was a breeze--if you consider dropping almost $30 on a sandwich with a miniature side salad breezy. I got the sandwich, cooed over it, took pictures, anticipated that long-awaited first bite, took the bite, and...tasted nothing but gristle cloaked in honey mustard. I pulled the fatty piece of meat out and dutifully took another bite. Gristle. Bite. Gristle. Eventually, I cracked open the sandwich and pulled out the inedibly fatty meat. (Picture attached below...just looking at it makes me feel violently nauseous.) I was left with a delicious piece of bread with a few leaves of arugula and a small skosh of cheese. In other words, I was left hungry. I love Alchemy and its culinary perspective, so I refuse to give up on the business as a whole. I do, however, have no qualms about giving up my romanticized view of their pastrami sandwich.

We sat right by the kitchen and were able to watch them make our dinner. The chef came out and personally spoke to us about our dinner. I got the vegetarian cauliflower dish the adobo sauce was hands down one of the best sauces I've ever had, my husband got the burger medium rare and he said it was perfect and the fries were crispy, my daughter got the kids slider and thought they were delicious (easy could of fed two kiddos with a smaller appetite), my other daughter had the butter noodles which is on the menu but she's super picky and they accommodated her without a blink, for our youngest we got a side of fruit it was amazing fresh fruit with a good variety. At the end another chef came by and asked if our girls would enjoy dessert, we got the mango and coconut lime sorbet. They were so luscious , creamy, and full of flavor. We sat "inside" it was an open concept with no doors or window to the restaurant. The kitchen had screens to keep the bugs out. There was gentle music playing in the background. Most places we've been the music has been so loud we can't hear each other or think. It was right on the ocean so we got to listen to the ocean waves and watch them crash on the shore. If I could give them more stars I would.
