We split a plate lunch - great food. Locals eat there too, no atmosphere, but good food. more

This hole in the wall was in the middle of a shopping center. It was recommended by a few books and one of our local tour guides. We stopped for lunch on the way to the airport (its located very close). We waited outside for about 15 minutes. You could tell the food must be good by the line of... more

Affordable, local, fresh...mmmmmm no frills just good eats! more

We at lunch at Da Kitchen while staying in Kihei. This is a great place to grab some local food that is not too pricey.

I had a sampler plate with Teriyaki Beef, Katsu chicken and Kalua Pork ($10.75). It... more

This is a great place for children and their kalbi is almost as good as mine. My husband loved the macaroni and potato salad and we returned several times. Also they have really good poi. Da Kitchen is ultra casual but a great place to stop in Kihei. more

Even locals on Mauis highly recommended this place to eat local food. So my boyfriend and I went to... more

Da Kitchen serves up huge portions of good local food. I like the noodle dishes the best. The Kalua Pork is a bit salty for my taste, but I guess it is a regional preference. Two people can split a dish and be plenty satisfied. more
