“We rolled up at 8am to a small line but it went super quick and we ordered the fav five plus two. Holy smokes were they good!! The donuts look small but they are dense and super fresh tasting! The proprietor was super friendly and had a top-notch stache! 10/10 would go again!”
“Nutcharee’s has been my favorite meal while vacationing in Maui. We come every year and go to Nutcharee’s 2-3 times. So dang good….everything!!”

“If there were only one restaurant to eat at on Maui, for us it would be this beautiful restaurant set in a gorgeous setting of old Maui (at the Valley end of the foothills of the West Maui mountains), which serves the most incredibly presented and quite exceptionally delicious meals we’ve had, served by some of the best cooks, wait staff and owners we’ve seen anywhere…and we’ve been everywhere🤙🏼 LuckyweliveHawaii🌹indeed!”
“This was a beautiful restaurant experience from start to finish. We had the honey lavender crispy shrimp, seafood lau lau, opakapaka w/ lobster and green beans. All amazing and the service was top notch. We loved the quiet intimate setting. This was a perfect way to celebrate our 10th anniversary and we will be back on our next visit to Maui!”
“We had an incredible dining experience at Ferraro’s in Wailea. We chose the four-course dinner with the wine pairing, and every course was outstanding. I honestly wouldn’t change a thing.
Our server, Nick, was phenomenal. He took the time to describe each dish and wine pairing in detail, checked on us throughout the evening without ever being intrusive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Joseph, who was assisting Nick, was just as attentive and incredibly kind. Their teamwork and hospitality made an already amazing meal even more memorable.
From the food and wine to the exceptional service, everything exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to come back!”
“We used the swim-up bar to enjoy some cocktails. I wanted to give a shout-out to the lady and man bartenders working on Friday, Dec 12 evening who was really nice, warm and friendly. Sorry I didn't get their names. They kept the snack mix refilled and created a funny, warm atmosphere.”
“Spectacular hotel. One of the best I’ve stayed in. Exemplary service from the minute you arrive to the end. Rooms and grounds super clean.
Highly recommend the club level. The club is a great place to relax and enjoy the view w lots of eat and drink.
Can’t wait to come back. Aloha 🌺”
“First time there after many years. Super friendly gal out front. Reasonable prices I thought. Food was excellent. We will be back”
“Best brisket I’ve ever had hands down! It was seasoned good and so tender. The bbq sauce was great as well. I ate a couple bites of my Mac and cheese and my bbq beans both of such were really good I just didn’t have the room to finish them. Very glad I chose this place. My son had a bbq chicken plate and he tore it up which is great because he’s a picky guy”

“We went to a local place for lunch that had great reviews and were very disappointed. Came across this amazing food truck and randomly ordered a few things……ended up coming back not even an hour later to order more. Great portions, food was so good! Made to order and so yummy! The wasabi cream sauce is 🤤🤤🤤 Give this truck a try! Best meal on Maui after a week of trying different local spots!”
“We had a company dinner at Koast and I cannot say enough good things about it. From start to finish the service was imbecile. While not on the ocean the view was still beautiful with golf course and ocean views. The food was delicious. I highly recommend. PS. Ask for Jason”

“Looking for a quick and easy bite to eat, my husband and I ordered takeout from Da Kitchen Maui. We ordered the Kalbi plate and an order of deep fried spam masubi to-go. The service was fast and extremely friendly. We ended up taking our food back to our resort to enjoy in the comfort of our room.
The Kalbi plate and deep fried spam musubi was plenty for the two of us to share and came with tons of rice and Mac salad. The short ribs were tender, and the chicken was moist. I had never tried deep fried spam musubi before, but I was a big fan.
So if you’re looking for a tasty quick bite to eat, I’d recommend Da Kitchen Maui.”
“Not usually a review person, but after returning for our second meal, I must. Highly recommend the birria taquitos, crunchy, hot, savory, fragrant, delicious. Arguably best food truck at south maui gardens. Satisfied every craving, steak burrito was delicious as well! Seriously the best food stop we made this whole trip. The owner is also super kind, and you know it’s a good sign when staff from other food trucks are coming to him standing in line for lunch!”
“We had our Montana State U FCS Div. 1 National championship party at Diamonds and they knocked it out of the ballpark for us! Holly and the crew at diamonds made great food and drinks in spectacular and accommodating environment. We had over 40 people and they made it work with multiple TV’s and sound. It was a great time! Highly recommend diamonds whether it’s a large group or just a small group needing to watch a specific game.”
“The fish tacos are hands down so delicious. Mango salsa takes it to a whole different level. The flavors were so so good this coming from my mom who loves to eat fish tacos everywhere she can. She said it's in her top 2 choices of fish tacos. I had the mahi mahi grilled with lemon butter and white rice it was delicious as well but next time I'm getting the fish tacos.”
“Maui's favorite dive bar is a great description, though it really feels more like a well-orchestrated place for locals and visitors to be at ease. The entertainment, on one of the nights I visited, was awesome! Annie and the Orfins, played a wide variety of Rock and Roll and has the house hoppin! Another Entertainer, on a different night, Natalie Nicole, was very enjoyable, with her soulful voice and guitar talents.
The bartenders are attentive and beverage selections are vast! I even got a Kahales coloring book! A++!”
“We had so much fun at this tiki lounge! I was on a mission to try as many Mai Tai’s as I could to find the best one! Pretty sure this was it! And then the bartender brought us out a mini size each of their delicious piña colada’s! It was really a fun place to be. The food was good and the drinks were excellent! The service was amazing as well. A fun place to go!”

“We had another fantastic experience at Duo Seafood & Steak! The best part was that our waiter, Tim, remembered us from our visit several months ago, which made us feel genuinely welcomed.
Even with a reservation, we only waited about 5–10 minutes for our table. Before we ordered, Tim told us about one of the new specials, which we really appreciated. The drinks were excellent, and all of the food was absolutely delicious.
There was a small miscommunication about the type of mac and cheese we wanted, but it was corrected immediately with no hassle at all. Tim was exceptional throughout the entire meal, checking on us often without ever being intrusive and making sure everything was perfect.
To top it off, the manager stopped by our table to ask how we were enjoying the food and the new menu item, which showed they truly care about their guests’ experience. Outstanding service, amazing food, and a team that goes above and beyond. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Unbelievable Omakase! Like eating in Japan, but in Maui! Truly a legit sushi experience. Almost all the fish & ingredients are either from Japan or local sourced. Truly a ‘must go’ on Maui. Can’t wait to go again!”
“AMAZING! The food was so delicious and the milkshakes (specifically the adult ones) were excellent. Highly recommend Cool Cat Cafe. We stopped for a late lunch after snorkeling; service was great & quick, and, as stated above, the food was top notch!”

Xoxo, Laurie & Marisa”
“My husband and I are staying at the beautiful Fairmont Kea Lani and the staff, service, and quality of food and drinks at the market have blown us away. We are here with our baby and Julie, Vince, Denyse and Lisa have all looked after us so well. We recommend them for every meal of the day and truly one of the best experiences of our stay.”
“Im from California and this was my first time in Hawaii, I was really looking for a good bowl of pho and this really hit the spot. If youre in Kihei and craving some good food and a nice friendly environment come here!!’”

“Wines were excellent, as was the service. They were friendly and attentive.
My only complaint was that the music was too loud to have a nice conversation.”

Seating is wide open for lunch and into the afternoon. Drinks are special and very tasty! The prices are reasonable and the ambience great. I would highly recommend this to locals and visitors alike.”
“Every visit to Maui my wife and I wound up at kohola brewery on many nights! Why? Great atmosphere, delicious beer (Waterman our favorite), and - most of all - a warm & welcoming people!! Also, music which ranged in quality from fantastic to …not good, all of which made kohola our favorite pub on Maui!!!”

“Wanted a nice meal at their restaurant & they put us in a tight table. I asked the hostess to please move us as there was a huge plant crowding Jon & almost getting into his face. The hostess retorted sarcastically, "we can move the plant.". How's that for keeping a patron happy 🤣 Tommy Bahama”
“Spent an evening in Kihei from Lahaina, and stopped here for a bite to eat before a concert. The happy hour for locals lasts all day and night, they have great specials for food and drinks. Especially enjoyed our server Walter, he was awesome! Thank you for a great time”

“What a fantastic performance Brenton put on with Mulligan's Magic Show! I had heard about this show from another family we met while horseback riding one day on our trip to Maui and we literally altered our Road to Hana day to be back in time for this show... and we were SO GLAD we did! It was the perfect evening and a nice break away from just seeing the beauty of nature. Brenton was funny, engaging, family friendly, and full of energy but he was also SO talented with his magic! I have a 21 and 18 year old and they were so impressed, laughing most of the night. We caught a couple of his tricks on video and posted them and our Facebook friends were in awe too! This show is WELL worth your time and money, and Mulligans offered fantastic dinner options too. Go see the show if you get the chance - you won't regret it! It's truly... well, "magical". :)”

“Great selection of food trucks and places to eat spread throughout the park. We stopped at the Wings Food Truck and really enjoyed it. There are so many options to choose from that we'll definitely be back to try something new. A fun spot with something for everyone!”
“This coffee roaster is the best in the state, hands down! It rivals my favorite roasters from the Pacific Northwest; you can tell they're intentional about the entire process from seed to cup. I get their subscription on a monthly basis; it's a great price and perfect for those living on a neighbor island.”
“This is a hidden gem for lunch at Wailea Beach. The hummus wrap and poke bowls are great, and the convenience is perfect. No need to go back to your hotel when you can have lunch right there at your beach spot. The people who work there are friendly and the prices are quite reasonable for the area.”
“This food truck is awesome! The food is so flavorful and everything I’ve tried is delicious. The elote and churros are soooo good! Wonderful food and wonderful owners!”
