Top 10 Maui Organic Food Sources

A’a Roots is one of our favorite organic spots to grab a healthy, and at the same time beautifully presented, breakfast or lunch. Meals at A’a Roots are unlike anything you will find on the island. This unique, vegan eatery serves up “re-interpreted global comfort food” with a flare all their own. Each item prepared at A’a Roots not only tastes out of this world but looks to be a work of art as well! 

As you enter A’s Roots you will most typically find large baskets of coconuts waiting to be cracked, and bunches of bananas and sugarcane just delivered from local farmers. This is a favorite hotspot of surfers and locals alike.

Here, everything is prepared fresh, made to order. One of our favorite items is their Tropical Acai Bowl with passion fruit. This delightful concoction includes acai, homemade granola, local bananas, coconut, macadamia nuts and passions fruit- with some edible flowers on top. 

Another “go to” for us is their delicious Soba Bowl. This bowl is not only gorgeous to behold but a true adventure for your taste buds as well.

Top of our list is Choice Health Bar, an "improved kitchen based on what is growing this season on Maui." If you want to gift your body with something truly healthy and nourishing, Choice is the place to go. Located in Lahaina, this award winning restaurant offers a large variety of fresh salads, "living foods," a juice bar, smoothies, acai bowls, vitality shots and so much more.

Choice has three locations on the island, with two of them being in Lahaina and Kaanapali. 

Moku Roots offers a wonderful menu for vegan and vegetarian lovers alike. The owners of Moku Roots have their own organic farm just 6 miles away, which supplies the eatery with a large varity of fresh produce.

Moku Roots is located in Lahaina and is a must do if you are looking for something healthy to counter all the mai tais and loco mocos you may have consumed during your stay.

We love their famous Taro Burgers with mac-nut aioli, yummy buffalo cauliflower wrap and pineapple fried rice served in half a pineapple.

Moku Roots is a zero waste eatery. As a fun bonus, if you order to go they will wrap your food in a ginger leaf instead of using boxes or plastic.

This plant based vegan/organic food truck serves up delicious dishes that are customized to the Hawaiian market. Earth Aloha Eats proudly participates in the farm-to-table movement, sourcing all their ingredients straight from Maui.

Their food is beyond words and keeps us coming back for more! We love their thai “chicken” vegan tacos, tasty buddah bowls, to die for gyros and their famous pulled “pork” fries. Trust us, you will never know you are not eating meat.

You can find Earth Aloha Eats in Lahaina. Check their website for up-to-date information on their location.

Monkeypod also prides itself with their laidback atmosphere, serving some of the best beer and cocktails on the island. You truly feel like family from the moment you walk in the door.

We tell all our guests they can’t leave the island without trying one of their famous Mai Tais, topped with a honey-lilioi foam. This may be the king of all Mai Tais! We also love their Poke Tacos, tasty pizzas and Bulgogi Pork Tacos.
