Maui’s movers and shakers know the best place to take their important clients is Cafe O’Lei. The food is bursting with good tastes and the prices are reasonable — and Cafe O’Lei now offers four Maui locations from which to choose, including Wailuku, Kihei and now, Waiehu.

The flagship is Cafe O’Lei at the Dunes in Kahului, a convenient spot with beautiful views of the golf course and the West Maui Mountains beyond. It’s got a private banquet room for 180 people, a 100-seat dining room and plenty of outdoor venues.

The husband-and-wife team of Michael and Dana Pastula will make you feel right at home. The chef-owner’ signature dishes include Manoa lettuce wraps, crab cakes, Bill Eby burgers, and onion soup en croute with gruyere cheese,

“We make customer service our core value,” says Dana. “We know business people have a tight time schedule and we try hard to meet their needs during breakfast, lunch and dinner. We give the best service and there is plenty of parking.”

The second biggest Cafe O’Lei location is upstairs at the Rainbow Mall in Kihei. It’s a fun place to go for lunch with air conditioning, and in the evenings it’s got a seafood bar, brick pizza oven and a sushi chef rolling out fresh delights. Cafe O’Lei Wailuku is where all of the lawyers, doctors and Wailuku businessmen hang out.

The latest Cafe O’Lei is opened in August at the Waiehu Golf Course, and everyone knows golf and business go hand in hand. All food items cost under $9 and golf on the county course is only $5 for kamaaina.
