Best Take-Out Restaurants In Maui
I’ve lived in maui for more than 15 years, so you could say that i know my way around the island. I always want my family photography clients to have the best time here. Plus, I love when they ask me if I have any recommendations for good food. I gotchu!
So I decided to create this list of must-eats: takeout edition because honestly who can sit down for a meal with kids? I personally have eaten at all these restaurants with my kids so you can trust me when I say — these are the best!
BEST TAKE-OUT RESTAURANTS IN WEST MAUI
1. Sandwiches from Leodas — YUM!! My favorite is the seared ahi sandwich. Perfect for lunch or dinner. I highly recommend ordering ahead for takeout because the line gets crazy long! Click here for the Leodas website.
2. Joey’s Kitchen — This amazing restaurant has two locations in Whalers Village and Napili! I love the brussels sprouts and the garlic chicken! My kids will eat practically everything on their menu. Perfect to pick up your lunch or dinner to go. Click here for Joey’s Kitchen’s website.
