Cane & Canoe restaurant at Montage Kapalua Bay draws its design from old Hawaiian peaked canoe shelters. The leeward end is open, giving stunning views of the Pacific Ocean from the main dining area. Enclosed sides protect diners from the sun and northeasterly trade winds. Rich hardwood and a full-size sailing and fishing canoe carved on Maui frames the view in an authentic traditional ambiance. The canoe bow points toward the open sea, ready for launch.
Cane & Canoe dinner guests enjoy spectacular sunsets with a backdrop of Moloka‘i island. Choosing among delicious modern menu items like Ora King Salmon with Meyer lemon risotto or smoked tea-brined Muscovy Duck with crispy ‘ulu hash and poha berry compote can be difficult. The broad menu includes something for everyone with Hamachi Aguachile, Beet and Burrata Salad, Wagyu beef cuts, and creative vegan dishes. Wine pairings are easy with one of the best wine collections on Maui to select from and help from well-trained sommeliers.
The resort’s executive chef Eric Faivre insists that its signature restaurant serves the finest ingredients sourced on Maui. Hawaiian tradition always connects mountain and sea, like the restaurant’s name. From upcountry, where sugar cane and pineapple once grew, comes grass-fed beef, lamb and pork. From the waters surrounding Maui, local fishermen bring in chef’s creative “Catch of the Moment.” Elevated vegan preparations showcase the freshest produce of Maui’s finest boutique farms, where harvest time is all year long.
As the sun sinks into the sea, the Cane & Canoe interior takes on a rosy luster and resonates with the rhythmic melodies of live island-style music. Maui residents, returning visitors and business travelers favor reliable, excellent food, attentive service and entertainment. An added appeal of this comfortable and inviting restaurant is the acoustics that allows comfortable conversation; dining is, after all, a social experience—a time to create memories.
Cane & Canoe is about more than just dinner. It’s trending for the most relaxing west Maui breakfast. In the morning, the sun sparkles on three infinity pools with the glimmering ocean below and Moloka‘i in the distance. Before striking out for a day of exploration, outdoor sports, sun and spa rejuvenation, restaurant guests can enjoy lite bites like tropical fruit, berry-filled pineapple cup, or avocado toast. And choices abound for the heartier fare: lox with all the fixings, oatmeal, and granola, omelets, or pancakes and waffles. For an early brunch experience, visitors can indulge in an elegant Lobster Benedict or fresh pastries.
