Fresh Catch Plate (market price) shown with charbroiled mahi, rice and home potatoes
Riding the wave of a restaurant concept that first launched in 1989 in the sleepy fishing town of Paia on Maui, Paia Fish Market has expanded to include three locations on Maui and one minutes away from Waikiki Beach.
“We fed all the hungry surfers and windsurfers with our large portions,” says Paia Fish Market manager Magno Passos of the original concept, which will also be shared soon at a planned Kailua location. “On the menu, there’s a variety of local Hawaiian fresh fish caught daily, like tuna, mahi mahi, ono, opakapaka and opah prepared grilled, rolled in Cajun spice, blackened or sautéed with butter, garlic, wine and lemon juice. “The portions are huge, and we also offer salads, fish burgers, fish and shrimp tacos as well as seafood pastas and fajitas.”
