Review: Was here in April 2010 for the first time and am pleased to review it on happycow.net. This is a wonderful little cafe that serves very healthy and clean food. Menu is mostly vegetarian with only turkey and tuna fish being the non-veg options. Joy's offers a concise but varied menu that also includes a few live food options.

From their menu, I tried a sample of the chili (veggies, beans, and spices). My husband and I ordered to share the Indo crunch wrap (grilled tempeh with peanut dressing,
sliced raw veggies and sprouts in a rice wrap, $11.50), the live nut burger (almond and sunflower pate, slice of tomato, tahini sauce, avocado, onion, and sprouts all folded inside a sheet of chard, $9.95), and a sweetened organic iced coffee with soy milk option ($3.25). From the dessert case, we choose a vegan brownie, and a rice pudding (with brown rice, syrup, raisins, and bits of fresh pineapple).

The chili was very good. The Indo crunch wrap was delicious. The live nut burger was tasty, though the chard did not hold the burger in -- I suggest using 2 sheets of chard to hold it together. The iced coffee was perfect for that hot Hawiian day. The vegan brownie, though yummy, was more fluffy like cake than brownie. The rice pudding had a very nice flavor, but the rice was a bit hard.

Overall, I really enjoyed my meal here and thought this was the best fresh and vegan food Maui had to offer on this trip. The prices are not cheap, but I still highly recommend it.

Review: This little place has many vegan & vegetarian options (although it offers some turkey and fish). They try to use live veggies and it's a great place for Raw Vegans too! I recommend it!
 
Pros: raw food * great vegan food * good prices
