Where is Gerard’s Restaurant located?
In the hot spot town of Lahaina, you will find some Maui's finest food at Gerard's Restaurant. Situated in the historic district of Lahaina, the Four-Star restaurant is located at the 19-room Plantation Inn (at 174 Lahainaluna Road), which was built in 1987 but has loads of Old World charm. Chef Gerard Reversade's namesake eatery celebrates the fusion of fine French cuisine and Hawaiin fare and serves up some of the freshest ingredients we've ever had. The restaurant's décor blends very well with the Victorian feel of its host hotel and you can choose to sit in the charming dining room or outside on the equally alluring veranda.

And though you have no choice but to enjoy chef Gerard Reversade's delightful cuisine at dinnertime only, you will be able to choose the location of your dining experience: the quaint Victorian dining room or the beguiling outdoor terrace. If the surroundings don't keep you interested, the food sure will — opt for the more imaginative dishes like roasted opakapaka with star anise, fennel fondue, and hints of orange and ginger or the Molokai shrimp soup with dumplings.

In keeping with the aloha spirit, Gerard’s Restaurant is a relatively casual Four-Star eatery. The whole point of the Hawaiian spirit is to be laidback and fuss-free, and that’s exactly what the atmosphere at Gerard’s is all about. Of course the go-with-the-flow mantra doesn’t exactly translate to the meticulously made food, which benefits from the steadfast standards chef Gerard Reversadehas become known for across Maui and beyond. Dress for cool air-conditioned temperatures if you opt for eating inside the Victorian dining room. You’ll want to wear something light and breezy if you prefer to eat out on the enchanting veranda.
