We had an amazing dinner at the Sea House! The seafood cioppino special and macadamia encrusted kanpachi were phenomenal. The fish was cooked perfectly and excellently seasoned. Our server was very knowledgable, helpful, and attentive. The service staff worked very well together, taking care of us throughout the meal. The service manager stopped by to make sure all was well with our meal. The view of the sunset over the ocean was stunning. Overall a most wonderful place to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary!! read more

Awesome view, especially for sunset. I got the Friday special which was a seafood cioppino - this dish was absolutely loaded with lobster, scallops, fish, mussels, and shrimp. Large portions, attentive service, amazing view, great specials - definitely recommend this place. read more

Beachfront restaurant with beautiful ocean views. We came for breakfast, but they also serve lunch and dinner. I imagine this would be a nice spot for dinner to catch the sunset. Unfortunately, the breakfast food was just alright. The Haleakala pancake wasn't anything special and was mushy on the inside. Service was mediocre as well. Parking lot is tiny, so I recommend arriving early for breakfast! read more

Highly recommend for breakfast and lunch. We went twice during our Maui stay and enjoyed it both times. Get the macadamia nut pancakes. They are delicious. They have a nice mochi texture and the coconut syrup is delicious. The bananas and nuts compliment each other nicely. The scrambled eggs were delicious and I ordered extra crispy bacon and it came out just that way. It was a delicious and filling breakfast. We ordered fish tacos to go for lunch while at the beach a few days later. They were tasty and the portion of fish was generous. They did not skimp on the slaw or sauce. The green salsa on the side was delicious as was the bean and corn salsa. Super refreshing and light. The view from the restaurant is amazing as well. We enjoyed the beach while eating breakfast. Had great service. I highly recommend and will be back in the future when visiting Maui. read more

We had a nice time at this restaurant! Let me start by saying we dined at 8 pm at night - so it was dark and we didn't get the "beach view." So if that's a big part of what other folks love about Sea House, we came at a time when that's not a factor. Service was super nice - both our servers and the hostesses. I appreciate that they have choices for vegans, vegetarians, carnivores and pescatarians. Tables outside were nice enough - but I'd say that indoors needs a refresh. It had a 1980s Ramada Inn hotel restaurant vibe. People seemed happy inside - it just seemed more like a place for folks who have visited here for decades than a place with a trendy interior. Drinks: cocktail list was a little more tropical-traditional than cutting-edge mixology, but what they make seems well done. I decided "when in Rome" - & got a frozen coconut mojito. It was definitely tasty & came with the expected brain freeze. Bread: 2 complimentary rolls (in contrast to restaurants that make you pay for fancier & tastier pull apart rolls). They were fine, not memorable. Salad: we split the MOLOKA'I WATERMELON SALAD, which was the most interesting salad on the menu: Makawao Farm arugula + Kumu Farm watermelon + sheep milk feta + Kula sweet onion + EVOO + aged balsamic. It was refreshing and tasty - and they kindly split it for us in the kitchen. Definitely big enough for two people to split, so a great value for $18. Entree: can't remember what my sweetie got but it was "some kind of meat" and he thought it was fine LOL. I got the LOCAL MUSHROOM RISOTTO: it comes with a kind of brown sauce (mushroom, cheese), rather than just being in a broth. But the rice was firm, and I really liked the local mushrooms. It won't win contests, but is a very nice (and also very generously sized) dish for a vegetarian. Overall, we had a very nice time here, though we didn't think that the food overall was quite as good as the best places we enjoyed on our vacation. If the view is spectacular during the day, then that probably tips it over the edge. But we still enjoyed our meal. Mahalo! read more

Thankfully, in Hawaii it's hard to order bad fish. That was the saving grace of this establishment. Sea House was probably great once upon a time, but everything seemed dated and a little tired, from the staff to the decor to the menu. We paid $80 for the special and were super disappointed. Sauces were overly salty and/or one dimensional. The veggies were soggy and covered in oil slick. I ordered a cocktail which was sweet and fake. I didn't finish it past a couple sips. Overall, I can't recommend this restaurant with gusto and instead would send anyone up the street to Merriman's. read more

Worth the drive to Napili! This place never disappoints with the fabulous food and views. The service is spot on and food delicious. It's casual right off the beach and located in a secluded bay. Ideal for a walk before or after your meal along the coastline. read more

Went out with family to try this out really nice beach side view from the restaurant. They also had a nice waiting area in the inside for us to wait in. Our waitress was very nice and was attentive to all of our needs. I enjoyed the mocktail I got. As for the the starters the rolls were alright and the fried calamari was good. The poke nachos were soggy and fell apart. The entrees were okay nothing really stands out for me. I really did enjoy their ice cream pie desert that was a highlight for me. read more

OMG I found my happy spot. Was searching for a scenic place for happy hour. Located in the Kapalua area just north of Lahaina, parking is easy and the views are breathtaking. Expect to wait to be seated for happy hour which runs at an early 2:00 - 4:45. I came by myself since daughter wanted to hang out at the beach, which is also walking distance. There is a waiting area in the back while you wait for a table. I sat back there for a while but then checked in the main dining area and lo and behold, a high table opened up. I recommend sitting here for a better view of the ocean. Beer on draft for happy hour is an affordable $7 and features local ales. I got the Kona Light Blonde Ale which went well with the poke nachos ($14) and calamari ($9) that I ordered. The poke nachos consisted of three chips topped with fresh poke. So don't expect nachos in the classic sense! The calamari was a bit more substantial with a furikake crust. Sea House restaurant lived up to being a happy hour indeed. read more

Came on a Thursday at 3:30PM for happy hour and had no wait for a seat on the outdoor patio. We got the chicken wings (sweet and sticky with good flavor), crispy calamari (we liked that they were strips ~ our favorite), kalua pork tacos (pretty good size for happy hour!), sliders (beef patty's with kalua pork ~ the pork flavor overpowered the rest of the burger) and hurricane fries (these were okay, the only one I'd skip if we went again). View from this place is the best beach views ~ you're right on the sand read more

I love seafood, if you knew me, it would be an understatement. I however can't eat pork. Every dish on the menu, except for a very select few all has it. Tonight to get a different sauce for a pasta dish wasn't worth the fight, so I ate it "as is". The food is 4 stars, service as attentive as our souix server (water refills) was on point, our actual waiter was a little off... The ambiance is why you come here. I'd give it 6 stars as the ambiance is that stunning! read more

The views of Napili Bay and the frozen coconut mojito ftw! For outdoor dining you need a reservation, but we had no problem snagging a tale for 3 in the dining area still with a good view of the bay. The food is fine, but yes it's expensive. Entrees were the $40+ price mark. Service was good and they start you off with free bread. The cocktails at $17 were pricey, but the coconut mojito was tasty. Overall, expensive, but solid enough and magical for a sunset. You could easily get a poke bowl from the market down the street and a bench blanket but if you're looking for a dining establishment, this is a solid option. read more

While in Maui celebrating one of my favorite humans, he chose Sea House Restaurant. He's not afraid to uber to eat well! Day two we ventured! The Sea House delivers one of the most effortlessly beautiful dining experiences on Maui. Set right on Napili Bay, the open‑air setting gives you sweeping ocean views and that calm, breezy atmosphere that makes every meal feel like a moment. The ambiance alone while looking right into the ocean is breathtaking. Service is friendly in that effortless Maui way: warm, relaxed, and genuinely attentive. You feel taken care of. So much beauty yet just 3 stars? Yes, we may have ordered the wrong items. Let's get into it! Calamari- We thought they were cheese sticks. We learned that it's a different part of the squid, it's the body part! Known in Hawaii and served as such! Who knew! Mahi Mahi Sandwich-blackened mahi on a brioche bun. Mine was chewy, super chewy I almost thought they brought me chicken. Did not like at all! Crab Club- He chose this because we love crab and maybe we should have known we are spoiled living in DC-Maryland-VA, he ate it but I didn't get any ooohs or ahhhhs from him and he never reviewed the place, so yeah no bueno. Our drinks were just okay, I'd come back to try more items and possibly at dinner or breakfast because that is what they are known for! read more

update next day: We had guests come for an afternoon snorkel and then happy hour here. This is really the best appetizers, so the 6 of us ordered one of each most of the menu. it's a short menu. Worked out great , we all shared. Lots of laughter , we ate on the patio facing the sea. Mahalo read more

Cruised through for some quick happy hour bites and they were delicious. Went back a bit later thinking we could grab a quick drink and watch the sunset but at that point I guess we would have needed a reservation. Beautiful view!! read more

We had reservations around 7:30 , but was seated early. Service from Megan was great, gave us some water and some bread then mentioned the Saturday evening special of Prime Rib, We opted for the King cut to share, and ordered their calamari and some cocktails, ambience of the place was on the waterfront, but you have to walk a path before you get to the actual restaurant. We'll be back when we go back to Maui again. read more

Had the absolute best experience at the sea House restaurant with my family while visiting Maui! The service was excellent and definitely go right before sunset to get a nice golden hour photo on the beach. I got the macadamia nut kanpachi 10/10 so so good! The calamari was a good appetizer as well! Our server was amazing & recommended the ice cream pie for dessert! Overall the best meal we had in Maui, excited to visit again soon! read more

We had two breakfasts and two happy hours while we were staying at the Napili Kai. The breakfasts were excellent. The All American and Honalua. The honalua had too much chorizo but it was still good. We sampled many of the happy hour apps. Pork sliders, fish tacos, Caesar salad, fries, ribs, chicken wings and coconut shrimp with the last 3 being our favorite. Service was very good and the view on Napili bay is awesome. read more

Napili was not the first beach I visited on this day but it was the beach I was at when realizing that part of the lunch we'd planned to pack had not been packed. Lucky for me that Sea House Restaurant was a short stroll across the sands of Napili. Sitting like a beacon, inviting you to end your day here, Sea House Restaurant is a place you can walk into sandy. I did, was told there'd be a wait for a table, and went out to a back patio to wait. Soon I was summoned: "we have seats at the bar". At first I was saddened, thinking I wanted a table, then sat at the bar only to realize it was the best seating in the place. Just look at that view. Happy hour here is good, as is service. We enjoyed: * Poke Nachos ($14) * Caesar Salad ($8) * Hurricane Fries ($7) * Mai Tais, and Aloha Bites (cocktails, $12 apiece) * Lahaina Haze IPA ($7) There's actually parking here, for those not just wandering over from the beach. If you find yourself in the Napili area at happy hour (2-4:45) don't leave it to chance: request a seat at the bar. read more

Did some exploring on Yelp and the Sea House came up and after researching wanted to give it a try. Really wanted something special for our final days on the island of Maui. I made a reservation but wanted to get there way early to walk around and grab a cocktail before we sat down. What a great location overlooking the beach and a small bay. The staff was friendly, helpful and very accommodating and because we were way early for our reservation they gave us the option of sitting at the bar and dining. What a fabulous idea because the view was incredible, with open air surrounding the bar. Victor our server and the bartender was very friendly and took great care of us. We were able to enjoy our meal and take in another spectacular Maui sunset from where we sat. Cocktails were their own spin on some regulars and very refreshing. The Sashimi was so fresh it could literally melt in your mouth, wedge salad was Perfect to share and very good. The onion soup had a unique flavor and I wasn't sure if it was the local Maui onions that gave it that uniqueness but it was delicious. My entree was incredible, I am pretty sure this was the first time I have had Monchong fish, but it was so moist and flaky and then to put a pesto crusting on it just made it "Ono" served on a bed of risotto. Crazy good-well done Chef you knocked this one out of the park. Coconut shrimp was cooked perfectly and made with the larger count shrimp, served with the perfect Chili Tai sauce. We really wanted to dine at a place that had that old school charm, and we found it here at Sea House. Live Hawaiian style music in the background by a solo artist completed our dining experience. A "fantabulous" evening done with class set in a beautiful natural theatre. Bravissimo Sea House you made the evening special. When on the Kaanapali coast and you want that classic dining experience this is your place, BUT make a reservation. read more

Wonderful dinner! Had reservations and we were seated outside. Beautiful setting overlooking the water. Dianne was our server and she was attentive and personable. Had a few drinks: the Sea House Old Fashioned and Sea House Spritz were excellent Food was amazing--- very fresh and hard to choose. Lots of local fish choices... Ordered the scampi style mushrooms ( "shareables") , the special that night ( scallops, shrimp, and ?( I forgot), and macadamia nut crusted kanpachi with an incredible sauce... No dessert for us. Prices were reasonable. Truly an amazing dinner. Highly recommend. read more

We had dinner here and it was wonderful. Our server, Anthony was great. He was funny, comfortable and we could tell he was being himself which we appreciate. We sat outside because it didn't look like it was going to rain but, this is Maui. We did get some rain but we didn't get wet. The umbrella did its job very well. We both order the special with fish, scallops, shrimp and rice with a really good sauce. The scallops were cooked perfectly. The fish was very tasty and the shrimp were great. The view was terrific. Looking right into the bay and watched a gorgeous sunset. As usual we asked if this was a do over and we both said yes. Luckily we already have reservations because it was hard getting one. read more

Saturday brunch at the bar watching the waves crash into Napili Bay, made even better with great service. We always get the bennies and hubs kept the tradition going with their basic bennie with ham and hollandaise. I decided to try something different as I always order the veggie bennie, so I chose the sweet potato frittata in a sriracha sauce. It looks a little like a layered lasagna but with egg, cheese and sweet potato instead. The sauce was odd though, hence the star off. The chipotle hollandaise is great on the bennies, but this sriracha sauce was too sweet, almost like a dessert, without much of a hit of chilli. It tasted like an overly sweet spaghetti sauce with a dash of sriracha. Not my fave. But the frittata was delish with plenty of Molokai sweet purple potato which I enjoy. Hubs bennie was classic and like magic it disappeared! The veggie bennie used to be $15 but it has gone up to $17 recently, but you still get Kamaaina rates if you have a HI license. I really like this local restaurant on Napili Bay, especially brunch or happy hour at the bar. read more

Went to try this restaurant after seeing the happy hour advertised on maui happy hour app. I walked in and was ignored by hostess staff when I asked where to check in for a table. Our less than enthusiastic waiter took our orders but returned quickly with our drinks. If I knew how small and over priced the poke "nachos" were, I would've never ordered them. The "nachos" are three wonton chips topped with a few pieces of fish and loads of seaweed salad and other less expensive ingredients. The taste of the nachos were quite good but I believe it is really bad false advertisement calling them nachos. The hurricane fries were topped with very little ingredients and needed a lot more sauce/furikake. The sliders were decent and the only thing of decent size. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone look for a substantial snack unless they are there strictly for the views and drinks. read more

Seahouse: one of my favorite restaurants good views,great food & iced tea . 2 things needed: 1.This is where I had to sit last night. Not a small rip in the bench, had to eat on edge/corner of the table to avoid jagged edge, large tear. Very disappointed, pls take more pride and repair the rips, not the only one. Plus staff are aware tips are there. Where is the management? 2. The acoustics are VERY loud, they need to add noise reduction so people can hear the person talking-sitting next to them. Really hoping they read this and respond with corrections. As I said: one of my favorite places and I tell lots of people to go there too read more

Used to enjoy - will never go back! Nice location with a beautiful view, but the experience was not up to the natural setting, Sat at the bar and the service was beyond disappointing. Staff was very inattentive and got aggressive and dismissive when a conversation turned to faith. Management claimed there was a patron that was uncomfortable with the conversation and was asked to leave. Security was called in and the fine security gentlemen was equally surprised by the request and suggested it was better to just leave than argue the complaint. The place was nearly empty which suggests I am I am not the only person to experience the lack of hospitality you might expect from such an otherwise ideal location. What a disappointment. read more

Great views, friendly staff, good drinks. Ceviche was simple but good. Entrees were lacking.

We recently dined at Sea House while staying at Napili Kai Resort with our family. On Friday evening, we had a wonderful experience -- the food was excellent, and our server was prompt, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the menu. She made great recommendations, and we were genuinely excited to return the next day. Unfortunately, our Saturday visit for happy hour was a completely different experience. Our server appeared very distracted, and our food arrived significantly later than tables seated well after us. The overall atmosphere became increasingly uncomfortable. What concerned us most was witnessing what appeared to be a manager ( a gentleman) confronting staff about alcohol being served to our server while she was actively working. We had no idea alcohol was involved, but seeing this situation unfold in front of guests at what is supposed to be a quality establishment was unsettling and inappropriate. Sadly, we will not be returning to either the resort or the restaurant after this . The situation felt disorganized and unprofessional, and ultimately unacceptable. read more
