If you’re traveling to Maui anytime soon…and looking for a fun and delicious local spot for Hawaiian BBQ, you should check out Aloha Aina BBQ.

Aloha Aina (translation Love of the Land) BBQ is along the Hana Highway, just past Paia.  There’s no need to go ALLLLL the way to Hana to get delicious BBQ…while still enjoying the shorter scenic drive.

Aloha Aina is located on the Maliko Farms Market…along with a Kombucha Cafe, Espresso Bar and Vegan Food Truck.  Their menu features brisket, juicy baby back ribs, tender pork belly, and the juiciest Huli Huli chicken.  Also a highlight for those that don’t eat chicken or beef/pork like me….was locally caught blue marlin served as an Ahi Poke bowl…it was so good!!!

Definitely a great local place to check out when exploring Maui!!
