50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wailea

“Food was yummy and atmosphere was friendly.“

“I can confidently say Spoon & Key Market has officially made it into my Top 3 favorite restaurants in Maui, and I can’t believe I didn’t know about it until now! I went this past Friday night with some friends, and from the moment we walked in, I was hooked. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfectly lit, no noise, no rush, just a beautiful setting to truly enjoy food and conversation.

Every single dish we tried felt like it was straight out of a Food Channel feature. I’m usually not a fan of chicken, yet here I found myself wanting plate after plate, we actually re-ordered it right after finishing the first serving because it was that impressive. The octopus was another standout favorite, and honestly, saying I didn’t like something would be a total lie because everything was flawless.

The cocktails were just as memorable, fresh, balanced, and clearly made with quality ingredients. You can truly taste the cucumber, herbs, and even the fresh lavender they use (yes, actual sprigs of lavender!). And let’s not forget dessert, absolutely divine.

What blew me away was realizing they’ve been open for two years, two years I’ve been missing out on this gem! The moment I tasted the first dish, I was already texting my husband saying, “how do we not know this place?” I can’t wait to go back with him so he can experience it too.

Five stars don’t even come close, if I could leave 100, I would. Whether you’re local to Maui or visiting, do yourself the best favor and come eat at Spoon & Key Market. We went for dinner, but I hear they also serve breakfast, and lunch, and I can’t wait to try them all.“

“Loved our Brekkie Bowls and smoothies! The sweet gals that work there are awesome! Do yourself a favor and get a Brekkie Bowl!“

“The owner was very friendly. Steve made sure that we felt at home. He is very personable. Steve took our order then joined us on the other side of the counter to chat with us about our time in Hawaii. He even gave us other recommendations for food. Drinks were also very good. I got the Rose Green tea and so far, it's the best I've had! If I had more time here, I would definitely come back. Steve said he is opening a location in Cerritos, CA called Cali Tea this summer. He opens the time I visit family, so I will definitely be paying him a visit!“

“This is a wonderful spot for a quick bite! If you’ve just enjoyed some time at the beach and are looking for something delicious and fast, you’ll appreciate their takeout options or the lovely outdoor tables where you can relax. It's a perfect place to refuel and soak in the surroundings.“

“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!“

“Best iced coffee I’ve ever had, I’ll be back our next Maui trip, every day!🫶🏻 Please get a location near Portland Oregon!😂🙏“

“The BEST food on the island, hands down. I was in serious need of some food that warmed and comforted my soul, and Sol Brothers delivered. The brisket is out of this world, and very good portion size. Would 100000% come back and recommend to anyone, if you are like and was circling the food truck lot indecisive, go with Sol.“

“Best pizza ever!!! Lovely atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating. Attention to detail and quality ingredients are obvious in all their food. The staff are very welcoming and make your experience one to remember. They definitely care about their customers and what they do!“

“Great food, fantastic atmosphere, fabulous staff“

“Couldn’t say enough good things about this place. Loved it so much. Great coffee and the nicest people working there.“

“808 deli has the best sandwiches and salads on the island.“

“Love the music of Tim McDill and Seanna. Worth the drive just for the view. Dinner and pizza menu significantly decreased at night... pepperoni, cheese or mushroom are the only options. Enjoyed the salads but thought it was strange that food delivery came with a server banging down her tray and plopping fork and plate and napkin and zooming away before we could ask for a knife or extra napkin.“

“A little Mexican food truck parked on the side of the road south of Wailea. By far some of the best food I’ve had on the island and quite authentic. Wife had the fish tacos with their delicious salsa and I had a giant fish torta which was amazing. In terms of bang for the buck where eating out tends to be fairly expensive…this place is a total gem.
Be aware there’s no seating available, we just ate in the comfort of our AC-laden car but could easily take a picnic to go to the beach nearby. A+!“

“The proprietor is the most personable vendor I’ve encountered this week. My family and I have visited the truck several times and missed him yesterday when he was sick; the local alternative was disappointing and more expensive. Godspeed Gus! Hope to see you today!❤️🙏🏽“

“My husband, daughter and I visited Sweet Hula in mid-June 2025 and had the best açaí bowls in Hawaii! We were in Maui for three days during the last leg of our trip and ate here every morning. During our vacation we visited three islands (Oahu, Island of Hawaii and Maui) and had Açaí bowls almost every morning. Sweet Hula ended up being our absolute favorite of the five different places we tried. The folks who helped us each day were the BEST. They always greeted us with a smile and were so sweet and kind. They accommodated any topping change requests that we needed and the bowls always came out quickly. The large size bowls were perfect for keeping us fueled up for a day full of hiking and swimming. The açaí base was perfectly frozen and the toppings were super fresh and generously portioned. We also had some of their delicious, fresh banana bread that was perfect to snack on throughout the day. We’ve been back home in NC for two weeks now and we still talk about the Sweet Hula bowls and how much we miss them. Please go visit the folks at Sweet Hula and let us live vicariously through you!! Mahalo!“

“Great ice cream and e has Dole Whip also. Definitely will visit again before going home. Highly recommend this place.“

“Mahalo! Nice to meet you. It was amazing!“

“Drove 45mins to try out their cinnamon roll. Worth the drive! Very good!“

“I ordered the ube coconut coffee with coconut milk and the strawberry matcha. The ube was a 10/10. SO delicious!!!!! The match was an 8 out of 10 and refreshing. I have never had ube coffee before and I didn’t know what to expect. Boy was I surprised! 😋“

“What a great bakery, the coffee is excellent. And the malasadas are so yummy.“

“All hand made daily, fresh, authentic, Hawaiian. It’s the next best thing to a luau. Definitely something on the bucket list one should put a check in the box.“

“The seasoning on the fish n chips was delicious! Service is fast and staff is great! I had cod fish n chips and my husband had Ono grilled fish tacos with sliced cabbage and sauce was amazing“

“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!“

“Excellent breakfast sandwich & pizza. highly recommend.“

“I apologize because I confused you with another coffee company :( You all were so amazing during COVID with us HUNGRY HOMELESS HERO delivery volunteers. Thank you 🙏 so much for your hospitality 🙌 Aloha 🤙🏽“

“Daniel at Mexirican Mix is crushing it. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and seriously the best Mexican I’ve had on the island. You can tell he puts heart into everything he makes. This is a weekly must for us! If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out!“

“Best Food truck we’ve been to in Maui Hawaii 🙂!! Trust me we tried a lot. So healthy and delicious flavor love the chicken stir fry! Salad dressing is amazing. In my opinion they have the best Smoothies! Don’t hesitate to stop and try“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you’re looking for a pho-nomenal spot in Kihei, this is it! 🍜 The broth at Pho Noodle Bar is rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced — definitely made with love. The noodles are cooked just right, and the portions are generous enough to make you say what the pho!

The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff is super friendly, and everything comes out fresh and fast. Whether you’re craving comfort food or just want to pho-get your worries for a bit, this place hits the spot every time.

Hands down one of the best pho bowls on Maui — un-pho-gettable! 👏“

“This has become our favorite place to eat in Maui. We eat here every trip but this time we came back 3 times!! Two favorites, coconut shrimp with sweet potato fries AND the mahi mahi (I now prefer this over Paia Fish Market’s) it was so tender and the sauce served with it is out of this world!! I actually got and extra sauce when we left to eat with our steak the next day. It was that good!! The owner is the sweetest and her gift of creating delicious food is next level. Cannot wait to come back!“

“Excellent tasting fresh wraps that are so yummy I can’t recommend them enough. Great coffee as well. Really love the atmosphere and Gina and the staff are absolutely outstanding just super accommodating just lovely. If you’re in the area definitely recommend Thats a Wrap. Absolutely love the local art on display it’s gorgeous. We will be back love Tina and Steve from New Zealand.“

“The best I’ve EVER had.! Way better than Granny’s pie! Total Five Star! I highly recommend the Lilikoi cream.“

“Super friendly waiters, fast on delivering food. High quality taste and even higher quality atmosphere. Highly recommend“

“Decided to splurge a little and treat myself and family to a nice breakfast in wailea. As locals we have our usual spots but decided to give this place a try since there was a kamaaina special. We weren’t disappointed. I had my fill of smoked salmon, ahi poke, bacon, and eggs benny (all buffet so that was a plus). Kiddos had everything and the wife really enjoyed the atmosphere. Not stuffy, great staff (Venus was our server) and the kamaaina was a plus. Coming back again.“

“Coming from 305 miami and having tasted a lot of Cuban coffee I can say that albas Cuban colada is by far the best and only real coffee in Maui. Juan Manuel Colome Santiago de Cuba, Oriente 110% Cubiche“

“Stopped by in the afternoon, no line, no wait :)
Got a big shave ice to share that came with 3 toppings. Definitely a good portion to share for a fair price. The woman at the shop was friendly and helped answering any questions.
I would give it a 4.5 stars but as I also had better shave ice before, I give 4. But you can’t go wrong with Bling Bling“

“Everything we've eaten here has been delicious! Such creative food combinations - beautifully presented. Everything on the menu sounds tempting. We were delighted with the salad cones and crepes and look forward to coming back to try more of the menu. Try it - you won't be disappointed.“

“Best pizza on island. Order online and pick up at window. Simple perfection!“

“Super friendly waiters, fast on delivering food. High quality taste and even higher quality atmosphere. Highly recommend“

“This place is legit. Just discovered it and tried it when the taco place next door was closed for the day. I've now been back twice in a week and it has instantly become a "go to" place for me.“

“Bar none, the best poke I’ve ever tasted with FRESH ahi with shoyu sauce. And FRESH grilled mahi in the fish tacos. Plenty Ono!!! Looking forward to returning.“

“Great coffee!! Was able to stop in our their first week opening. Great people great place!! Can’t wait to go on our next visit to the island.“

“AWESOME Fish Tacos - Get there early or they may run out of fish. This is the place to go!“

“Upon arriving to the Fairmont Kea Lani after a long 9 hour flight, we were able to get a quick pizza that we brought up to our room to eat. Stopped in to get ice cream one night. I got the banana bread sundae and my fiancé got the chocolate Oreo shake. Both delicious. The store also had coffee, teas, and typical gift shop items. Everything of course is super expensive but what else would you expect. Overall recommend.“

“One of my favorite upcountry restaurants. I am always pleasantly surprised by how good the food is here. 🌺“

“Great breakfast and service!“
