Editorial Reviews:

This book evolved from the popular download version which has guided thousands of Maui visitors in navigating America's most expensive place to eat out.

It is unprecedented because of its scope and by virtue of the fact that it is written by restaurant critics. James and Molly Jacobson are two big-city-exiles who live on Maui and dine out an average of 11 times per week. Their honest, take-no-prisoners review guide is written with the philosophy that people who love to eat and prefer not to waste money on bad food should know the truth about Maui's well-marketed dining scene.

Top Maui Restaurants is packed with local insights and insider tips. Reading this book before and during your trip is like having a best friend in paradise who steers you away from the tourist traps and guides you to the real gems. The online version is updated every month with the most accurate, up-to-date reviews and information, and readers of this book can get the latest download free at TopMauiTips.com.

Summary: A great little investment
Comment: I did hours and hours and hours of research on sites such as tripadvisor, Yahoo! Travel, citysearch, yelp, etc. etc. Then I bought this book, and found that I could have bypassed the entire onerous task. Top Maui Restaurants 2008 agreed with all of my research, and provided a lot more. For example, the description of the very first restaurant I looked at in the book provided me information about booking at that particular restaurant that I had not discovered in my online research.

I also appreciate the fact that the book is not a shill. If something sucks, the authors will tell you in no uncertain terms. Conversely, if they recommend a restaurant or a particular dish, they tend to be dead on the money (modulo personal food preferences, of course).

Finally, the ability to get the entire book in PDF form (once you purchase the paper edition) is invaluable because it makes the book searchable electronically.

The only other thing I would like to see in this excellent book would be more cross-referencing, so I could more easily look for only (for example) "breakfast places in south Maui".

Summary: Top Maui Restaurants
Comment: I have yet to go to Maui, but this book prevents a huge waste of time and money by eliminating the "blind" restaurant roulette game once you get there. A great supplement to more detailed activity slanted guide books. When I get back I'll know for sure, but it looks like a winner to me. The authors even provide an online supplement to keep you up to date. This clearly indicates to me they're in the biz for more than just the money. Highly recommended.

Summary: Maui by the hour
Comment: We went to Maui with only breakfast and 2 dinner plans for the whole week. We studied the book before we left. We knew exactly what to expect before we ordered dinner anywhere. From the top onion rings at the Hyatt to the Bento box at Cascades, we were truly surprised at the quality.
A true value!
