Visit Maui: Haven's Harborside Fish & Chophouse

I was so excited to visit the recently-opened Haven's Harborside Fish & Chophouse, helmed by the talented Chef Zach Sato.  

Hanapaʻa Daily Raw Bar

The Hanapaʻa Daily Raw Bar is a daily selection of fresh seafood offerings presented in a tackelbox - how clever is that!

On the night we went, there were prawn cocktails, oyster shooters, and poke (my co-worker said it was some of the best poke he ever had - so flavorful!).  

Chef Zach, although not present that night, generously had this dish, along with the Oysters Rockefeller, brought out to us.  

Oysters Rockefeller

Cast Iron Focaccia

The Cast Iron Focaccia was amazing.  It was like a hybrid focaccia / milk bread that had such an amazing texture - soft and fluffy with a crispy outer crust, and with a little bit of heat from chili pepper salt.  It was so good - I legit ate majority of the pan myself! 

Maui Ohana Wagyu Croquettes

The Croquettes were served with a tomato jam and castelvetrano olives.

Lapa`au Farm Grilled Broccolini

The Broccolini was served with a 25 year balsamic. 

Risotto

The Risotto had Hamakua mushrooms, parmesan reggiano, and a truffle emulsion. It was an umami-packed dish!

Diver Scallops

The Diver Scallops was another fave - topped with an XO sauce and sitting in a miso brown butter hollandaise.  It was perfectly cooked! 

Kokoleka Ice Cream Cake

I was beyond stuffed, but I had to try the Kokoleka Ice Cream Cake.  Ice cream was sandwiched between chocolate cake layers, and accompanied by caramel.  It was indulgent!

Being harborisde, the restaurant has access to the freshest fish, so if you love seafood, this is a must visit!

And if you don't love seafood, you'll find other foods like fried chicken, steak, salads, and more.  

Congrats to Chef Zach and the team!
