In Hawai‘i, there’s sugarcane, palm trees, and Chef Roy Yamaguchi. Whether a trusting friend (or the top search results) urged you to make a reservation at one of his restaurants, you witnessed his excellence on Top Chef, or you’re familiar with the list of James Beard Award winners, Chef Roy’s reputation precedes him. Roy’s Kaanapali has served as a living and breathing example of the service and cuisine exemplified by the Hawai‘i-based chef for over 30 years. With its location within Kā‘anapali Resort, loyal regulars and giddy Roy’s first-timers break bread (or sushi rolls) with West Maui’s famous mountains and the 18th hole of the Kā'anapali Golf Course in sight. A menu of Hawaiian fine dining immortalized by Chef Roy—including Mac Nut Crusted Local Catch, Roy’s Blackened Ahi, and Jade Pesto Steamed Seafood—promise to make the entrée selection decision more difficult than the Friday night dinner reservation.
