Chez Paul has been popular since before I first visited Maui in 1972, and excellence is assured due to the skills of Patrick Callarec as the chef-owner, who worked for various Ritz-Carlton Hotels before coming to Hawaii to work as chef for the Kapalua Maui, and eventually opening Chez Paul. A few highlights of the menu follow:
Chilled fennel-and-potato soup,Les Aubergines Et Tomates Du Pays Roties Au Four Et Herbes De Provence
Oven roasted eggplant and olowalu tomatoes with provence herbs.
Bloc De Foie Gras De Canard Imported duck liver terrine, accompanied with toasted brioche.
Caviar De Beluga Sur Glace Vive One once beluga caviar served on ice with classic garnishes.$95
Cappuccino De Bisque De Homard Au Cognac Cappuccino of lobster bisque with cognac.
Poisson Des Isle Au Champagne
Chez Paul’s classic preparation of fresh island fish poached in champagne with leeks and capers.
Les Belles Tomates D’Olowalu Au Basilic
Slices of fresh village tomatoes with a basil shallot vinaigrette.
Tournedos Aux Trois Poivres Sautéed prime cut of filet mignon with a green, pink and black peppercorn brandy cream sauce.
Roast venison in season.
The wine list is predominantly French – Thank you – and well chosen selections.

i was simply stunned and heart-broken when our adult children returned from a recent trip to maui and sadly reported to me that chez paul had closed its doors. after 28 trips from newport beach california to maui with my husband and children (when they were younger of course)—there is no longer a reason for us to travel to maui.
we can afford to travel anywhere in the world and i assure you that ‘chez paul’ was the absolute primary best culinary experience every time we entered its doors par excellence. there are few establishments to match it. very few.
i remain hopeful that the brillant chef callarec & associates will publish volumes I, II, III & IV of amazing recipes, presentations, dining room design & memoires. chef and the very beautiful ‘chez paul’ will be dearly missed by myself and my family however we have delicious, unforgettable & wonderful memories for which we can only say: Thank you
