50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Wailea

“One of the best dinners we had in Maui!“

“Spoon and Key was delicious! We ordered the burrata, hamachi and kanpachi crudos, the burger, catch of the day (mahi mahi), and the potato and cauliflower sides. Everything was amazing! The service was also spectacular and we had a great view of the ocean on the outside patio.“

“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!😂🙏“

“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.“

“Wow. This was a highlight, but we almost didn’t stop because it was a little confusing. Tastings offered on the hour (we didn’t have reservations) but we were able to get in. A little weird; wait in the merch line to buy tasting tickets, then meet in a grassy field on the side of the building. BUT, then the magic happened. Alan was knowledgeable & funny… and I absolutely fell in love with the company’s story (and their spirits!). After the tasting, we hung out for dinner on the lawn with live music and great cocktails! A must-stop. Wonderful.“

“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 live in Kihei and order pick-up from 808 Deli at least once a week, usually more often. Healthy, fresh, creative, delicious food.“

“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+!“

“Best coffee we had in Maui and probably one of the best we’ve had in life in general. My husband had the ham and cheese panini. He closed his eyes and had a moment with each bite. The employees were super sweet. We’ll be back next time we come to Maui.“

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

“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 🤙🏽“

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

“Loved that nothing was too sweet the Tiramisu is special and the coffee tasted really good can’t wait to try more things.“

“This delightful unique coffee truck is so Special , Andrea joyfully takes your order , and you can feel her passion , attentiveness and warmth in serving you !! :)
I love the cozy charm and the sweet details all around this coffee trolly! The bulletproof coffee is one of my faves ..smooth with just a hint of sweet to fuel your brain !

Make sure to check out Crema as one of your upcountry Best Coffee Spots !! ~ Anna ✨“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“What separates good acai bowls from great ones is the base imo. The toppings are more or less the same. The base here is really delicious in an interesting way. It's not just sweet but has floral notes to it which we really enjoyed. 10/10!“

“A must visit if your are in the area.They have a nice selection of shaved iced, you can make your own or pick from the menu. You can select a dole whip if that's your thing. The shaved ice 🍧 is well put together as you can see. The flavor is phenomenal. 😍“

“the folks are super nice and friendly! the crepe I tried-pineapple was delicious! fresh and flavorful!“

“Excellent breakfast sandwich & pizza. highly recommend.“

“Hey there! I found this adorable local shave ice stand in Maui that you absolutely must check out! It’s right across from a beach park, so you can soak up some sun, watch the surfers at the cove, or just take a stroll with your shaved ice during sunset. It’s the best! 10/10!! 🤙🏽“

“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 thinking of going anywhere else to eat, think again & come here! The food was HOT and came out w/in the predicted time frame. Service was very friendly. The coconut shrimp & sweet potato fries were 12/10. We came here two nights in a row. Can’t recommend enough“

“Before we even had a chance to taste the food the service by the spanish speaking young lady was exceptional. She was very polite, and her warm welcoming energy made us feel very welcomed. She pronounced my partners name correctly (which hardly anyone does) just to add sugar on top. Once our order was ready she hooked it up with the ranch. The aroma radiating from the box was so enticing, and with due regard! These wings are one of the tastiest items we have had to try in our trip here to this beautiful Island. Maui will forever be in our hearts, and Wing Kings Maui along with it.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Really cute lil stop with açaí bowls , shaved ice, coffee and snow cones .. located in the rainbow mall with lots of shops …got the state fair shaved ice came with ice cream on the bottom and whip cream on top. Got the medium it was huge !“

“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“

“Fantastic experience! The service was warm, friendly, and attentive from the moment we walked in. The pho was absolutely amazing — rich, flavorful broth, fresh ingredients, and perfectly cooked noodles. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite. This is easily one of the best spots for pho, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Haven’s Harborside is fabulous! The food, cocktails and the staff are all amazing. I have been for lunch and dinner; both were just delicious. We had the fish and chips, smash burgers, double cut pork chops, the short rib and more! Every single dish was perfect! Run, don’t walk to try this great restaurant!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | A Flavor Explosion in Maui!

If you are looking for an incredible meal, Tajima Ramen is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the experience is top-tier.

The Food
• Carnitas Ramen: This is a total game-changer. The carnitas are tender, juicy, and packed with a deep, savory richness that elevates the entire bowl. It is easily one of the most flavorful fusion dishes I’ve ever had.

• Traditional White Ramen: For those who love the classics, the white ramen is perfection. The broth is creamy, soul-warming, and balanced exactly as a traditional tonkotsu-style base should be.

• Teriyaki Chicken & White Rice: Even the simpler dishes shine here. The teriyaki chicken is perfectly glazed and tender, paired with fluffy, pristine white rice that acts as the perfect canvas for the savory sauce.
The Service

Beyond the kitchen, the service is amazing. The staff is attentive, welcoming, and clearly passionate about the food they serve. They make you feel right at home the second you sit down.“

“Now, I normally would write a review that’s so in depth, so detailed, SO CRITICAL, yet for Bullys burgers, I can’t. Why? Cause it’s simple.

I’d fly from the Midwest, the thousands of miles back here, just to have a burger. 🍔

Oh, and the view while chowing down on your big ol burger is pretty good to :)“

“When visiting Maui don’t miss Paia, and when visiting Paia don’t miss Choice Health Bar. If light and delicious is your thing than you will be thrilled when you discover this place. Amazing owners and staff makes this a restaurant you don’t want to miss.“

“When visiting Hana I always stop here because the Food is Amazing and the Owner and Staff are Great People!! Always A GREAT CHOICE!!“

“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!“

“This is a super cool funky Maui TREASURE! The atmosphere is totally chill. You will meet locals and tourists in this unique and fun pub/restaurant. Bring a dollar bill or two to personalize and hang on the wall with the tens of thousands of others that have visited over the last ~40+ years. The menu is simple and very good. Sandwiches are fresh, delicious, and big enough for the hearty appetite. There is a full bar here too that can serve local beers and crafty cocktails to enhance your meal. Dina's also offers some great hotdog recipes and everything on the menu can be ordered for either dine in or take-away. Located on the shore of Sugar Beach it is a convenient stop to grab a lunch to go or dine in for some cheerful service. Open daily from 11am to 10pm which also makes it a great place to grab an evening cocktail with friends after the beach or day of adventures. Plenty of allowed parking available at Sugar Beach Resort. Highly recommended if you are looking for a low key relaxing and fun place. 👍“

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

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