Eskimo Candy
Last updated 19. Nov, 2009 by Mark in Fish Market | South
Eskimo Candy is hidden inside a nondescript commercial area.
Rating: 
In a nutshell: A small fish market & cafe that serves the most delicious and inexpensive seafood in South Maui.
Minuses: No weekend or evening hours.
Sound-bite: “Eskimo Candy has the absolute best poke I’ve found.”
Eskimo Candy doesn’t try to pretend to be anything it isn’t – located in a commercial district, this small market & cafe is attached to their fresh seafood distribution warehouse. Eskimo Candy’s main focus is on being purveyors of the best quality seafood to restaurants and grocery stores – and that my friends, is precisely why they’ve got the choicest pick of seafood for their market & cafe customers.
Eskimo Candy got our #1 rating in two different categories because not only do they have among the best fresh fish for sale to the public, but they’ve also got a superb and surprisingly inexpensive cafe to eat-in or take-out. The prices are astoundingly inexpensive compared to the quality – I mean, as far as the prepared food goes, you could easily pay significantly more for this food sitting on a plate just a short drive down South Kihei Road.
They have a few indoor tables, and some outdoor picnic seating – but the real way to do Eskimo Candy is to get the food to take-out, then drive a few minutes down the road and enjoy a tasty picnic on the spectacular South Maui beach of your choice.
If you’re staying in a condo with a kitchen and plan on cooking during your vacation, unprepared fish is also available at very reasonable prices.
Notes:
- The poke and fish & chips are their specialties.
- Choose the “fresh fish” option (instead of frozen) on the fish & chips.
