History & Founder

Mulligans is a restaurant and bar that opened in 2001 on the Wailea Old Blue Golf Course.  Mulligans on the Blue was founded by an Irish man, Michael O’Dwyer, who fell in love with the beauty of Maui and established the first and one of the only Irish restaurants in Maui.

Michael O’Dwyer emigrated from Clonmel, Tipperary, a county in Ireland, to work in food & beverage management at Wailea Four Seasons in 1996. He eventually realized his dream and started this business venture- providing excellent meals with great service for anyone looking forward to relaxing and enjoying great food!

Restaurant Menu

The menu at Mulligans on the Blue has something for everyone, with a wide variety of starters, entrees, and desserts. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality of food on offer. And speaking of quality, the food here is amazing.

One of their best sellers is Mulligan’s Chicken Wings, served in 7, with carrots and celery, your choice of flavor from plain, BBQ, or spicy, and comes with ranch dressing. The chicken wings are always cooked to perfection and the ranch dressing is the perfect finishing touch. If you’re looking for an appetizer that is sure to please everyone, this is a must-dish.

A highly recommended dish is their traditional Reuben Sandwich. The corned beef is sliced very thin and the overall flavor of the sandwich is excellent. The Swiss cheese provides a nice contrast to the salty corned beef and the Thousand Island dressing adds a sweetness that brings out the flavors of the meat and cheese. The sauerkraut on the marble rye bread gives the sandwich a slight crunch and ties all of the flavors together. This is definitely one of the favorites amongst visitors.

They also offer a wide range of vegan-friendly dishes to accommodate all dietary needs. The Vegan Yellow Curry is a fantastic dish that is packed with flavor. The curry is made with a medley of vegetables, including mushrooms, zucchini, carrots, onions, peas, and red peppers.

The vegetables are simmered in a flavorful yellow curry sauce, and the dish is served over white rice. The Vegan Yellow Curry is a hearty and filling dish that is sure to please vegans and non-vegans alike. If you’re looking for a delicious and healthy vegan meal, then the Vegan Yellow Curry is a must-try.

Aside from their main menu, they also have a Traditional Irish Pub fare which offers a variety of food selections from Shepherd’s Pie, Bangers and mash, and Guinness Pot Pie, which are some of the most ordered dishes you can get. For dessert, you can get their wide array of ice creams and pies, or you can get their famous Mulligan’s Homemade Apple Pie with Roselani vanilla ice cream.

Beverages

Since it is an Irish-owned restaurant, it’s always a must to have its best-brewed beers. Their draught selection ranges from Guinness to Maui Brewing, Co. Their beers are draught so you can taste its decadence straight from the barrel. They also have a full bar if you want other types of drinks which are served to you by their very own bartender.

If you are with the gang, they also have a dedicated happy hour from 2 PM to 5 PM for you to avail yourself, so your group can have a blast while enjoying their drinks. Try their Mulligans Mai Tai, which is a fusion of passion fruit rum, coconut cream, pineapple, and topped with fresh lime.
