Marriage Hawaii

Best Restaurant in Maui-Wedding dinner?

We are planning on having a small wedding in Hawaii and thinking of just having a dinner at a nice restaurant as the reception. I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions on which restaurants to look. I want a private room for our guests and preferably ocean view. Thanks!

1. I'm not familiar with the nicest or best restaurant(s) on the island of Maui in the State of Hawaii, but I will give you a suggestion about what to avoid... be very careful about what any local thinks/suggests to be good eating or a native delicacy, bc what Hawaiians like more than anything else is.... SPAM! SPAM! That canned pork shoulder stuff made by Hormel. It's weird, but they love it, they eat over 6 million cans of it each year. They eat it on white bread with mayonnaise, they eat it as a filling in Sushi, they have cookbooks devoted exclusively to the preparation of gourmet SPAM. Spam, pineapple and rice - yummy ;) Your local travel agent, or a good travel book will help you chose wisely
2. Ask your local travel agent.
3. Do you have to have a private dining area? If so, check with the hotels such as the Hyatt, Marriott, etc Catering Departments. If you just want a great restaurant with award winning food, and great oceanfront view, and would settle for a private dining "area", try Merrimans, Pacifico, or I'O.
