Hawaii’s Vibrant Flavors, Redefined
Welcome to Mahina & Sun’s, your home away from home.
Taste Hawaii, Stay for the Vibes
MORE THAN JUST A MEAL
Hidden within a swell little spot called the SURFJACK HOTEL & SWIM CLUB, Mahina & Sun’s will become your second home. In Hawaiian, “Mahina” means moon—a celestial counterpart to the sun, both essential to traditional Hawaiian sailing navigation. A visit to Mahina & Sun’s is more than just a meal; it’s a gathering place for adventurers, a hub for meaningful connections, and a spark for creative ideas—all mapped out over vibrant local cuisine and generous pours.
The bar program at Mahina & Sun’s, recognized as one of HAWAI’I Magazine’s ‘Top 5 Bars in Hawaii,’ is helmed by New York Native, Bar Czar Christian Taibi. Christian crafts signature cocktails using fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
